	Our Recomendation
	The Map and the Territory by Michel Houellebecq Having won France's top literary award, Le Prix Goncourt, Michel Houellebeq's 2010 novel, The Map and the Territory, has now finally arrived in the United States thanks in part to Gavin Boyd's brilliant translation. While the book is a satirical depiction of the French art world, it's also a personal journey into the mind of a writer coming to terms with what it means to write a book. In fact, Houellebeq goes so far to write himself into the plot. Like Ishmaeel Reed and John Fowles before him, Houellebeq is a writer both subtle and subversive. He is not to be missed. Andre

	Dead End in Norvelt by Jack Gantos The year is 1962 and 12 year old Jack Gantos has just been grounded forever at the beginning of what appears will be a very long summer. Prone to severe nosebleeds whenever he is overly excited or shocked, Jack's mother adds to his misfortune by volunteering his services to an elderly, arthritic woman to help her write obituaries. But what seems destined to be a boring vacation turns out to be one hilarious adventure after another. I highly recommend Dead End in Norvelt for anyone who loves to laugh. Jack Gantos has just received the 2012 Newbery Medal for this book. Linda
