Other Indie FavoritesAt Night We Walk in Circles: A Novel, by Daniel Alarcón (Riverhead, $27.95) “Set in an unnamed South American country years after a protracted civil war has ended, At Night We Walk in Circles chronicles the life and dark fate of Nelson, a bright and promising young man who joins a small guerrilla theatre group. Nelson and the group’s two founders, one of whom is a psychically battle-scarred casualty of the political conflict, bring their play, to villages in the countryside and mountains, looking for escape, renewal, and perhaps redemption. The village that is the troupe’s final destination holds deep secrets, and an innocent and kind act results in a shocking outcome.” —Cathy Langer, Tattered Cover Book Store, Denver, CO

Jeeves and the Wedding Bells: An Homage to P.G. Wodehouse, by Sebastian Faulks (St. Martin’s Press, $25.99) “Dash it all! Jeeves and Bertie Wooster return in Faulks’ homage to Wodehouse. Jeeves seems to interfere with Bertie’s plans to save the engagement of a friend. Georgiana, a right smashing gal by any standard and the cousin of Woody’s fiancée, dives right into the bumbles and misguided efforts that seem to surround any Wooster plan. Jeeves impersonates a lord while Bertie becomes his butler—and a thief—but all in a good cause, of course. Great fun and a wonderful entrée into the world of Wodehouse!” —Becky Milner, Vintage Books, Vancouver, WA

MASS MARKETAnother Indie FavoriteA Fork in the Road: Tales of Food, Pleasure & Discovery on the Road, James Oseland, Ed. (Lonely Planet, $15.99) “The tastes of new places—from the sublime to the ridiculous—are the ingredients of these essays. Writers as varied as Padma Lakshmi and Frances Mayes consider a pivotal meal or taste that simultaneously brings a place and a moment to vivid life and makes it live forever in memory. With tales about fishheads and Twinkies and dishes more exotic still, these essays will stir wonderful personal memories for every reader. Bon appétit!” —Michael Barnard, Rakestraw Books, Danville, CA

not sure if there is a subject that A
.S. King cannot
handle with perfect dexterity. She w
ins your trust by creating characters that are real and then paves the story’s w
ay with glass shards,
heartbreak, and, ultimately, gold. Reality Boy is
a fascinating emotional dissection of life under
the watchful eye of the A
merican public and the
subsequent fallout for one angry young man.”
