1.The Long Recessional: The Imperial Life of Rudyard KiplingThe Long Recessional: The Imperial Life of Rudyard Kipling
from Farrar, Straus and Giroux

Customer Review:
At a time when the "politically correct" holds sway in much of the media for intellectuals and all too much of academia, Rudyard Kipling is persona non grata -- the author of charming Victorian children's tales, but irredeemably tainted as an advocate and apologist for the British Empire and its... more info

3.A Perfect Night to Go to ChinaA Perfect Night to Go to China
from Thomas Allen & Son

Customer Review:
I too must counteract all the negative reviews of this book. After closing the last page I felt I could finally breathe and then, I sobbed. It tore a strip right off me. The man writes in completely unsentimental, sparse prose. You and the narrator are naked together - warts, broken bones, shattered... more info

from Harvill Press

Customer Review:

6.[no image]How Boys See Girls
from Random House of Canada, Limited

Customer Review:
I discovered David Gilmour's fiction completely by accident; my ex husband received it from his sister, and my life was changed. David Gilmour has had a long and successful career in Canadian media, but his fiction- specifically, this book- is his greatest accomplishment.

SPARROW NIGHTS by David Gilmour is the only book I have read in my 78 years that when I read the last word of the book, I instantly turned back to page one and re-read the entire book again.
