Pages : 641
Book Description
The New York Times bestseller with more than 1 million copies sold worldwide | Now a Hulu limited series starring Joey King and Logan Lerman Inspired by the incredible true story of one Jewish family separated at the start of World War II, determined to survive—and to reunite—We Were the Lucky Ones is a tribute to the triumph of hope and love against all odds. “Love in the face of global adversity? It couldn't be more timely.” —Glamour It is the spring of 1939 and three generations of the Kurc family are doing their best to live normal lives, even as the shadow of war grows closer. The talk around the family Seder table is of new babies and budding romance, not of the increasing hardships threatening Jews in their hometown of Radom, Poland. But soon the horrors overtaking Europe will become inescapable and the Kurcs will be flung to the far corners of the world, each desperately trying to navigate his or her own path to safety. As one sibling is forced into exile, another attempts to flee the continent, while others struggle to escape certain death, either by working grueling hours on empty stomachs in the factories of the ghetto or by hiding as gentiles in plain sight. Driven by an unwavering will to survive and by the fear that they may never see one another again, the Kurcs must rely on hope, ingenuity, and inner strength to persevere. An extraordinary, propulsive novel, We Were the Lucky Ones demonstrates how in the face of the twentieth century’s darkest moment, the human spirit can endure and even thrive.

The Hunter
Author: Julia Leigh
Publisher: Faber & Faber
ISBN: 0571380093
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
The hunter arrives in an isolated community in the Tasmanian wilderness with a single purpose in mind: to find the last thylacine, the tiger of fable, fear and legend. The man is in the employ of the mysterious 'Company', but his sinister purpose is never revealed and as his relationship with a grieving mother and her two children becomes more ambiguous, the hunt becomes his own. Leigh's Tasmania is a place where the wilderness can still claim lives; where the connection between people and the land is at best uneasy and cannot be trusted. In prose of exceptional clarity and elegance, Julia Leigh creates an unforgettable picture of a man obsessed by an almost mythical animal in a damp dangerous landscape. The Hunter is the work of a compelling storyteller and a truly remarkable literary stylist.

The Fox Was Ever the Hunter
Author: Herta Müller
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 0805096027
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
An early masterpiece from the winner of the Nobel Prize hailed as the laureate of life under totalitarianism Romania-the last months of the Ceausescu regime. Adina is a young schoolteacher. Paul is a musician. Clara works in a wire factory. Pavel is Clara's lover. But one of them works for the secret police and is reporting on all of the group. One day Adina returns home to discover that her fox fur rug has had its tail cut off. On another occasion it's the hindleg. Then a foreleg. The mutilated fur is a sign that she is being tracked by the secret police-the fox was ever the hunter. Images of photographic precision combine into a kaleidoscope of terror as Adina and her friends struggle to keep mind and body intact in a world pervaded by complicity and permeated with fear, where it's hard to tell victim from perpetrator. In The Fox Was Always a Hunter, Herta Müller once again uses language that displays the "concentration of poetry and the frankness of prose"-as the Swedish Academy noted upon awarding her the Nobel Prize-to create a hauntingly cinematic portrayal of the corruption of the soul under totalitarianism.

"Hunter Littlejohn was five foot three inches tall, one hundred ten pounds and ablaze with curiosity and the desire for adventure. Her ambitions as well as her disposition were well suited to her flaming red hair. She had a small, upturned nose, sprinkled with freckles and the lilywhite complexion of one of those unique creatures described as a true redhead. Her eyes were emerald green and her lips were full and sensuous, but the set of her jaw usually kept suitors at bay. However, with her shapely legs, full breasts and tiny waist, no man could ignore her, and all would require at least a second look. She treated these admirers with distain, and still they dreamed about her in their most secret fantasies. This was not the case with Nicholas Kane. Hunter couldn’t for the life of her figure out how to handle this tall, handsome and purely ornery mountain man. Kane was as ruthless and dangerous as he was handsome. She wanted to go west to look for her fiancé, and her best friend Quincy had told her Kane was the only man for the job. Her problem was that Kane refused to take her. At their first meeting, they instinctively hated each other. Eventually she kidnapped Kane, and in the company of her best friend, several muleskinners and two soiled doves from a local saloon, they left Chicago and headed for the Nevada goldfields... "
