Book SynopsisOne train. No stops. A deadly game of survival and revenge.In 1942, six people destroyed Anna Matheson’s family. Twelve years later, she’s ready for retribution.Under false pretenses, Anna has lured those responsible for her family’s downfall onto a luxury train from Philadelphia to Chicago, an overnight journey of thirteen hours. Her goal? Confront the people who’ve wronged her, get them to confess their crimes, and deliver them into the hands of authorities waiting at the end of the line. Justice will at last be served.But Anna’s plan is quickly derailed by the murder of one of the passengers. As the train barrels through the night, it becomes clear that someone else on board is enacting their own form of revenge—and that they won’t stop until everyone else is dead.With time running out before the train reaches its destination, Anna is forced to hunt the killer in their midst while protecting the people she hates the most. In order to destroy her enemies, she must first save them—even though it means putting her own life at risk.

Penguin Publishing Group Immaculate Conception
Book SynopsisFrom the author of Natural Beauty, set in the fiercely competitive art world, a novel about an obsessive friendship upended by a cutting-edge technology purported to enhance empathy and connection Enka meets Mathilde in art school. Mathilde is a dizzyingly talented yet tortured artist whose star is on the rise—and Enka, struggling to make art that feels original, is immediately drawn to her. The two strike up an intense bond that soon turns codependent. But when Mathilde’s fame reaches new heights, Enka becomes desperate to keep her best friend close—no matter the cost. Enka quickly falls in love with and marries a billionaire whose family’s company is funding an unconventional technology purported to heighten empathy, which could allow someone else to inhabit Mathilde’s mind and absorb the trauma from her brain. Soon, the boundaries between Mathilde and Enka begin to blur even further, setting in motion a disturbing series of events that forever changes their lives. Blisteringly smart, thought-provoking, and shocking, Immaculate Conception deftly navigates big questions of art, technology, authorship, and what makes us human. Ling Ling Huang offers us a portrait of close friendship—achingly tender and twisted—that captures the tenuous line between love and possession that will haunt you long after you turn the final page.

Columbia University Press Hidden and Visible Realms
Book SynopsisHidden and Visible Realms is one of the most significant medieval Chinese collections of stories of the fantastic and otherworldly phenomena, distinguished by its varied contents, elegant writing style, and Buddhist influence. This annotated first complete English translation explains the key themes and textual history of the work.Trade ReviewThis book is an important contribution to the growing canon of translated primary source materials of medieval China. * Choice *The nearly three hundred miracle tales that survive of Liu Yiqing’s compilation offer fascinating insights into China’s society and imagination of the late third to early fifth centuries. This complete translation will be eagerly welcomed by all students and scholars of Chinese literature, religion, and thought, as it was precisely in this period that Buddhism had become part of Chinese life. -- Wilt L. Idema, Harvard UniversityHidden and Visible Realms is the most complete and critically annotated translation of the seminal collection of zhiguai (‘tales of anomalies’), Liu Yiqing’s Youming lu, in any language, one that will be enthusiastically welcomed by all who are interested in the history of Chinese fiction and religion. -- Victor H. Mair, University of PennsylvaniaThe fields of early Chinese studies will enthusiastically welcome this excellent work by Zhenjun Zhang that combines a skillfully rendered translation of Liu Yiqing’s Youminglu with an extensive treatise, providing the most comprehensive review of the long history of zhiguai studies we have to date. -- Kenneth J. DeWoskin, University of MichiganHidden and Visible Realms makes a valuable contribution to the study of Chinese zhiguai “Records of the Strange” literature. For the first time, Zhang’s translation of the Youming lu gives English readers a sense of the marvelous richness of the text’s contents and its diverse themes. -- Keith Knapp, The CitadelThis is a substantial study and translation that can serve as a model for future translations of zhiguai texts. Accurate and carefully annotated, Hidden and Visible Realms is in effect a new recension of the Youming lu. It is a valuable contribution to our growing understanding of early xiaoshuo. -- Daniel Hsieh, Purdue UniversityThis book is an appropriate work for Western students or non-native readers. For the beginner of zhiguai study, this work, and especially the “Introduction” is to be recommended. * Monumenta Serica *Table of ContentsAcknowledgmentsAbbreviationsTerms Regarding Weights and MeasuresChronologyIntroduction1.

Cornell University Press The Difference Satire Makes
Book SynopsisOffering both the first major revision of satiric rhetoric in decades and a critical account of the modern history of satire criticism, Fredric V.

Devoting...Trade ReviewSome part of Bogel's survey of satire from Jonson to Byron will be of interest to regular BHR readers and the entire book will delight and inform the Renaissance scholars who wish to see their specialty in perspective. * Bibliotheque d'Humanisme et Renaissance *This study advances the reader's understanding of satire by providing a critical account of its history among modern critics.... Bogel's book is remarkably inventive and challenging; it raises the bar of understanding of Augustan satire in particular, and more generally of satire as a literary category. * Choice *
