"description": "Remy, the heir to the throne of the tiny nation of Montamant, is finally free of their royal chains as they start graduate school in Boston. No one here knows Remy is royalty or intersex. It's the break Remy has been looking for--until they meet Sam, the sassy lesbian across the hall. Sam doesn't tolerate Remy's snobbery and won't let anything distract her from getting a PhD in gender studies. But Sam understands Remy in ways noone else ever has, and Remy pushes Sam to see beyond her books. As things are starting to heat up between them, Remy is summoned home. The queen has a cold and can't perform her royal duties. There's just one problem: the people of Montamant haven't seen Remy since puberty and the changes might mean Remy's not the princess they expect. When Remy asks Sam to come with them, it might be the chance they both need to conquer their fears and find true love.",

While researching the article, and the disappearance of its lead researcher, Lakerman is drawn into a complex world of body augmentations, migrant labour, billionaires, a Virtual Reality Game and a series of fatally seductive mutations. How I Killed The Universal Man is a transhumanist noir taking place in a near future where environmental disaster and the advent of biological A.I. is leading to the radical reorganisation of consciousness. A narrative about the unknown forces structuring narrative's necessity, How I Killed The Universal Man begins from the premise that reality is always virtual.",

Finn is a remarkably confident and supple storyteller. [The Gloaming] deserves major attention.\" —John Williams, New York Times In rich, compelling prose, Melanie Finn perfectly captures a world of consequences, and the characters who must survive them. Pilgrim Jones' husband has just left her for another woman, stranding her in a small Swiss town where she is one day involved in a tragic car accident that leaves 3 school-children dead. Cleared of responsibility though overcome with guilt, she alights for Africa, where she befriends a series of locals each with their own tragic past, each isolated in their own private way in the remote Tanzanian outpost. Mysteriously, the remains of an albino African appear packaged in a box, spooking everyone—sign of a curse placed by a witch doctor—though its intended recipient is uncertain. Pilgrim volunteers to rid the town of the box and its contents, though wherever she goes, she can't shake the feeling that she's being followed. The Gloaming is a thrilling, haunting new work of guilt, atonement, and finally, hope.",

"description": "A New York Review Books Original In 1908, deep in Siberia, it fell to earth. THEIR ICE. A young man on a scientific expedition found it. It spoke to his heart, and his heart named him Bro. Bro felt the Ice. Bro knew its purpose. To bring together the 23,000 blond, blue-eyed Brothers and Sisters of the Light who were scattered on earth. To wake their sleeping hearts. To return to the Light. To destroy this world. And secretly, throughout the twentieth century and up to our own day, the Children of the Light have pursued their beloved goal. Pulp fiction, science fiction, New Ageism, pornography, video-game mayhem, old-time Communist propaganda, and rampant commercial hype all collide, splinter, and splatter in Vladimir Sorokin’s virtuosic Ice Trilogy, a crazed joyride through modern times with the promise of a truly spectacular crash at the end. And the reader, as eager for the redemptive fix of a good story as the Children are for the Primordial Light, has no choice except to go along, caught up in a brilliant illusion from which only illusion escapes intact.",
