The Heat of the Sun: A Novel
by David RainAN EXUBERANT DEBUT THAT SWEEPS ACROSS THE TWENTIETH CENTURY--BEGINNING WHERE ONE WORLD-FAMOUS LOVE STORY LEFT OFF TO INTRODUCE US TO ANOTHER With Sophie Tucker belting from his hand-crank phonograph and a circle of boarding school admirers laughing uproariously around him, we first meet Ben "Trouble" Pinkerton through the amazed eyes of his orphaned schoolmate, Woodley Sharpless--and ever after, though their paths at times diverge, their lives continue to intersect. Trouble, the son of Lieutenant Benjamin Pinkerton and the geisha Madame Butterfly, is being raised in the United States by (now) Senator Pinkerton and his upper-class wife, Kate. From early on, his privileged upbringing and rebellious charisma combine to involve him in many important events of the twentieth century: from Greenwich Village in the roaring twenties, through WPA work during the Great Depression; from secret government work outside Los Alamos, to a revelation on a Nagasaki hillside by the sea. Sharpless witnesses such events, too--along with plenty of Pinkerton family drama. The Heat of the Sun, David Rain's first novel, is a high-wire act of sustained invention--as playful as it is ambitious, as moving as it is theatrical, and as historically resonant as it is evocative of powerful bonds of friendship and of love.

The Heavens: A Novel
by Sandra Newman“This electrifying novel of love, creativity and madness moves between Elizabethan England and 21st-century New York.” —The GuardianA New York Times Notable Book of the YearNew York, late summer, 2000. A party in a spacious Manhattan apartment, hosted by a wealthy young activist. Dozens of idealistic twenty-somethings have impassioned conversations over takeout dumplings and champagne. The evening shines with the heady optimism of a progressive new millennium. A young man, Ben, meets a young woman, Kate—and they begin to fall in love.Kate lives with her head in the clouds, so at first Ben isn’t that concerned when she tells him about the recurring dream she’s had since childhood. In the dream, she’s transported to the past, where she lives a second life as Emilia, the mistress of a nobleman in Elizabethan England. But for Kate, the dream becomes increasingly real, to the point where it threatens to overwhelm her life. And soon she’s waking from it to find the world changed—pictures on her wall she doesn’t recognize, new buildings in the neighborhood that have sprung up overnight. As Kate tries to make sense of what’s happening, Ben worries the woman he’s fallen in love with is losing her grip on reality.Both intoxicating and thought-provoking, The Heavens is a powerful reminder of the consequences of our actions, a poignant testament to how the people we love are destined to change, and a masterful exploration of the power of dreams.“Heady and elegant.” —The New York Times Book Review“A complex, unmissable work from a writer who deserves wide acclaim.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
