An Historical Mystery (The Gondreville Mystery)
by Honoré De BalzacCharacterized by amoral ruthlessness, the politics of A Murky Business would seem to bear out Balzac's questionable precept. <P> <P> Set earlier than most of Balzac's Comedie Humaine, the novel covers the years 1803-6, when Napolean was making himself first Consul and then Emperor. The inclusion of Napoleon himself, as well as figures like Talleyrand and Fouche, makes this a historical novel. But it is also an early example of the detective story, in which the sinister, implacable police agent, Corentin, stalks his way towards vengeance on his aristocractic enemies.
An Honest Ghost: A Novel
by Rick WhitakerA 2013 "Books of the Year" -Times Literary Supplement & John Ashbery "6 Great Books to Read"-Readers Digest "19 Books You Shouldn't Have Overlooked in 2013"-Slate "An impressionistic portrait of literary subjectivity. . . revealing the opportunities for pleasure and refuge available to the inveterate reader. " - Lambda Literary "A masterful act of literary ventriloquism. " - Huffington Post Books Inspired by the task of unpacking his library, the narrator returns to writing an autobiographical novel about the sudden appearance of his son, Joe, who at age nine shows up on the narrator's doorstep for the first time. The narrator, unnerved by the prospect of sharing his life with his extremely precocious child, is nonetheless moved by Joe's arrival. He has to change his own life by accepting the responsibility of fatherhood, a role he shares slightly with his young English boyfriend, David. Joe's unpredictable mother, Eleanor Sullivan, seeks her own satisfactions. The domestic scene is affected when David introduces a new friend, Roy Hardeman, a strange gay cop who dies as mysteriously as he arrived. The heart of the novel is the ghostly, persistent, unreliable qualities of literary and personal memory, and the ways in which a narrative can hold onto, recapture, and transform memory. Rick Whitaker's semi-autobiographical novel, An Honest Ghost, consists entirely of sentences appropriated from over 500 books. Whitaker limited himself to using 300 words per book (in accordance with Fair Use); never taking two sentences together; and never making any changes, even to punctuation. In the iBook version, touching a sentence brings up its original source: a book's title, author, and page number. The experience of acknowledging each sentence as literary artifact, combined with the imagined accretion of books that built An Honest Ghost, deftly mirrors the burgeoning nostalgia in the narrator's voice and, fittingly, in the careful reader's heart.
