OUR COMMUNITY READS - Recommended by our Book Café friends. 

City of Thieves (Paperback)

By David Benioff
$15.00
ISBN-13: 9780452295292
Availability: Usually Ships in 1-5 days
Published: Plume, 4/2009
Other Editions of this Title
RECOMMENDED BY Steve Lawton: The author's grandfather tells the story of a week in 1942 during the Siege of Leningrad, when he and a fellow young 'criminal' are forced by a Colonel to cross German lines to find a dozen eggs for a wedding cake. Now, here is the best I can explain why this was a thorough joy to read: having likable but flawed human characters striving and wittily bantering, back-dropped by the horror of the Siege, creates an existential joy reminiscent of Catch 22, Dr. Zhivago, and Saving Private Ryan.

The Post Carbon Reader: Managing the 21st Century's Sustainability Crises (Paperback)

By Richard Heinberg, Daniel Lerch
Email or call store for price.
ISBN-13: 9780970950062
Availability: Out of Print
Published: Watershed Media, 9/2010
RECOMMENDED BY Michael Weaver: Want to impress your houseguests and visiting friends and dignitaries? Keep a copy of this on your coffee table or (more impressive still) in your bathroom. A meaty and sometimes brilliant collection of essays by fellows from NoCal's Post-Carbon Institute. Essential reading for understanding our moment in history and where we go from here.

Stories of Your Life: and Others (Paperback)

By Ted Chiang
$16.00
ISBN-13: 9781931520720
Availability: Usually Ships in 1-5 days
Published: Small Beer Press, 10/2010
Other Editions of this Title
RECOMMENDED BY Karen Joy Fowler: Short stories from one of the most careful and meticulous craftsman in the game. Ted Chiang's fans are mighty passionate about his work and I am one of the earliest and most passonate. Every story here will enthrall and amaze. This book has aliens and robots, but also ordinary mothers and children. The prose is perfect and the ideas mind-blowing.

Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook (Paperback)

RECOMMENDED BY Joan Davisson: Anthony Bourdain enjoys playing the Bad Boy of chefs. His new book, Medium Raw, enhances his reputation. He tells of his journey from early days to stardom, criticizing and applauding famous chefs. He is the host of the current television series, No Reservations. Underneath his salty exterior is a man who is articulate and has an ability to share the culinary wonders of various parts of the world. This book is an entertaining read, which will pull you into his world.
