NATIONAL BESTSELLER * From the award-winning author of The Tortilla Curtain comes "a fascinating, fictional rendering of what life might have been like doing research for infamous sex professor Alfred Kinsey" (Chicago Tribune). "A biting satire of emotional manipulation, sexual indiscretion, and scientific hubris."--The Boston Globe   A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune   In 1940, John Milk, a virginal young man, accepts a job as an assistant to Dr. Alfred Kinsey, and extraordinarily charming professor of zoology at Indiana University who has just discovered his life's true calling: sex.   As a member of Kinsey's "inner circle" of researchers, Milk and his beautiful new wife are called on to participate in sexual experiments that become increasingly uninhibited--and problematic for his marriage.

You might chalk it up to bad luck, poor timing, or straight up clumsiness. Nathanial Thatcher believed he'd drawn the short straw in life and blamed his weak immune system for keeping him locked up in his sanitized bedroom. It took his twelfth birthday wish to cure him and finally pull the trick off his eyes revealing the true culprits of his situation, and perhaps yours, the sprites Now Nathanial must take on these wish thieves if he is to keep his health. But how does one boy stand up against a society of sprites who make their living from using humans like factories?

Paperback. Etat : Good. Sixteen "uproarious and unforgiving" (The New Yorker) short stories from the New York Times bestselling author of The Tortilla Curtain "In an age of war where the foe is indistinct and difficult to identify, Boyle has become both the poet and the prophet of our time."--Los Angeles Times   Throughout his literary career, T.C. Boyle, one of the acknowledged masters of the short story, has refined his inventive, modern, and wickedly witty style. These sixteen stories--nine of which have appeared in The New Yorker--address an amazing array of subjects in a range of emotional keys. Some tap today's headline news, from air range ("Friendly Skies") to abortion doctors ("Killing Babies"), while others explore timeless themes, from first love and its consequences ("The Love of My Life") to confrontations with mortality ("Rust").   Combining joy and humor with the dark, intense scenarios that have earned Boyle national acclaim, After the Plague is a gripping ride through narratives that shock, compel, and entertain.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. A young Japanese seaman jumps ship and washes ashore on a barrier island in this "marvelous [and] razor-edged" (Cosmopolitan) novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Tortilla Curtain. "A hilarious black farce about racial stereotypes, selfish dreams, and ambitions run hopelessly amok . . . It's a pastoral version of The Bonfire of the Vanities."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times   Japanese seaman Hiro Tanaka, inspired by dreams of the City of Brotherly Love and trained in the ways of the samurai, jumps ship off the coast of Georgia and swims into Tupelo Island, a nest of rabid rednecks, genteel ladies, descendants of slaves, and the denizens of an artists' colony. His arrival is not an auspicious one--he terrifies one islander literally to death. Fleeing the outraged survivors of his victim, he finds refuge in the cabin of Ruth Dershowitz, an aspiring novelist and resident of the artists' colony. Ruth, a young woman of ambiguous talent and ambivalent ambition, is simultaneously trying to prove herself as a writer, manipulate the pecking order of the colony, and carry on a thermovoltaic affair with the son of the colony's director--and Hiro suddenly finds himself a player in both scenarios.   With East Is East, T.C. Boyle--hailed by The New York Times as "one of the most inventive and verbally exuberant writers of his generation"--has written a sexy, savagely uproarious, cross-cultural tragicomedy of thwarted expectations, mistaken identity, love, jealousy, and betrayal.…
