SUMMARY:2 new books by Bill Doyle
DESCRIPTION:Fast on the fins of Attack of the Shark-Headed Zombie is Bill Doyle’s second tale of magic and mayhem. \nMr. Cigam has a new job for Keats and Henry. All they have to do is capture one little slug in the Purple Rabbit Supermarket. Sounds easy\, right? Wrong! First\, the slug isn’t so little. Second\, there’s way more than just one. And to top it off\, the supermarket has gone all kooky—Mr. Cigam’s mixed-up magic has swirled down every aisle! There are pests in the produce and an angry snowman in frozen foods. Can Keats and Henry clean up this supermarket mess? \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nWatching this team of misfit monsters is a scream! \nAll Karl wants to do is make the Junior Club Werewolves team. But when tryouts turn into a monster letdown\, Karl decides to put together a squad made up of other creatures who didn’t make their own teams. A vampire\, a zombie\, a blob\, and others all decide to play together. With their first game coming up and almost no time to practice\, this group of misfits must use the qualities that make them special to overcome the odds and win.

SUMMARY:Benjamin Taylor\, Naples Declared
DESCRIPTION:It is a city of seemingly irreconcilable opposites\, simultaneously glorious and ghastly. And it is Ben Taylor’s remarkable ability to meld these contradictions into a whole that makes this the exciting and original book it is. He takes his stroll around the bay with the acute sensitivity of a lover\, the good humor of a friend\, and the wisdom of a seeker who has immersed himself in all aspects of this contrapuntal culture. His curiosity leads him to many byways\, both real and metaphoric\, and his passion for this ancient city and its people becomes\, in his graceful prose and amusing anecdotes\, irresistibly contagious.

SUMMARY:Thai Jones reads from More Powerful Than Dynamite\, Radicals\, Plutocrats\, Progressives\, and New York's Year of Anarchy.
DESCRIPTION:In the year that saw the start of World War I\, the United States was itself on the verge of revolution: industrial depression in the east\, striking coal miners in Colorado\, and increasingly tense relations with Mexico. “There was blood in the air that year\,” a witness later recalled\, “there truly was.” \nIn New York\, the year had opened with bright expectations\, but 1914 quickly tumbled into disillusionment and violence. For John Purroy Mitchel\, the city’s new “boy mayor\,” the trouble started in January\, when a crushing winter caused homeless shelters to overflow. By April\, anarchist throngs paraded past industrialists’ mansions\, and tens of thousands filled Union Square demanding “Bread or Revolution.” Then\, on July 4\, 1914\, a detonation destroyed a seven-story Harlem tenement. It was the largest explosion the city had ever known. Among the dead were three bombmakers; incited by anarchist Alexander Berkman\, they had been preparing to dynamite the estate of John D. Rockefeller Jr.\, son of a plutocratic dynasty and widely vilified for a massacre of his company’s striking workers in Colorado earlier that spring. \nMore Powerful Than Dynamite charts how anarchist anger\, progressive idealism\, and plutocratic paternalism converged in that July explosion. Its cast ranges from celebrated figures such as Emma Goldman\, Upton Sinclair\, and Andrew Carnegie to the fascinating and heretofore little known: Frank Tannenbaum\, a homeless teenager who dared to lead his followers into the city’s churches; police inspector Max Schmittberger\, too honest for his department and too crooked for everyone else; and Becky Edelsohn\, a young anarchist known for her red tights and for spitting in millionaires’ faces. Historian and journalist Thai Jones creates a fascinating portrait of a city on the edge of chaos coming to terms with modernity.

SUMMARY:Anouk Markovits\, I Am Forbidden
DESCRIPTION:Sweeping from the Central European countryside just before World War II to Paris to contemporary Williamsburg\, Brooklyn\, I Am Forbidden brings to life four generations of one Satmar family. \nOpening in 1939 Transylvania\, five-year-old Josef witnesses the murder of his family by the Romanian Iron Guard and is rescued by a Gentile maid to be raised as her own son. Five years later\, Josef rescues a young girl\, Mila\, after her parents are killed while running to meet the Rebbe they hoped would save them. Josef helps Mila reach Zalman Stern\, a leader in the Satmar community\, in whose home Mila is raised as a sister to Zalman’s daughter\, Atara. As the two girls mature\, Mila’s faith intensifies\, while her beloved sister Atara discovers a world of books and learning that she cannot ignore. With the rise of communism in central Europe\, the family moves to Paris\, to the Marais\, where Zalman tries to raise his children apart from the city in which they live. \nWhen the two  girls come of age\, Mila marries within the faith\, while Atara continues to question fundamentalist doctrine. The different choices the two sisters makes force them apart until a dangerous secret threatens to banish them from the only community they’ve ever known. \nA beautifully crafted\, emotionally gripping story of what happens when unwavering love\, unyielding law\, and centuries of tradition collide\, I Am Forbidden announces the arrival of an extraordinarily gifted new voice and opens a startling window on a world long closed to most of us\, until now. \n  \n \nANOUK MARKOVITS grew up in France. She attended a religious seminary in England instead of high school. After she left home at the age of nineteen to avoid an arranged marriage\, she attended Columbia University. She has a Master of Architecture from Harvard and a PhD in Romance Studies from Cornell. She has worked as an architect and as a set designer on major films including The Unbearable Lightness of Being. She lives in New York. Her first novel\, Pur Coton\, was written in French. I Am Forbidden is her English-language debut and will be available on May 8\, 2012.
