The Boat $14.49 ‘The Boat raises the bar for Australian writing.’ PETER CRAVEN, Heat ‘Nam Le is . . . a disturber of the peace. ‘Consider the subjects of his stories: a child assassin in Colombia (‘Cartagena’), an ageing New York artist desperate for a reconciliation with his daughter (‘Meeting Elise’), a boy’s coming of age in a rough Victorian fishing town (‘Halflead Bay’), before the first atomic bomb falls in Japan (‘Hiroshima’), The suffocations of theocracy in Iran (‘Tehran Calling’). This astonishing range is topped and tailed by accounts of the uneasy reunion of a young Vietnamese writer in America with his ex-soldier father, and by the title story – the escape of a group of exhausted refugees from the Vietcong in a wallowing boat. ‘One might be permitted to think, after all this high seriousness and intensity, Nam Le can’t do funny. But this criminally talented 29-year-old can do that as well.’ BARRY OAKLEY, Australian Literary Review ‘Stunning’ The Times ‘A fearless new Australian voice that accepts no geographical limits: these are stories of leaping power and the most breath-taking grace and intimacy.’ HELEN GARNER ‘Wonderful stories that snarl and pant across our crazed world . . . an extraordinary performance. Nam Le is a heartbreaker, not easily forgotten.’ JUNOT DIAZ ‘The fiction debut of the year.’ JAMES LEY, Australian Book Review ‘The best book debut of 2008.’ New York Magazine ‘The runaway literary success of 2008.’ Weekend Australian

To-day, as the sailor attendants were setting out the table for dinner, I heard one of them desire another to place one of the dishes a fathom or two higher up the table ; and once at an Irish banquet I heard a carpenter, who was one of the waiters, ask a guest to whom he was handing a dish of salmon cutlets skewered on arbutus wood, to be pleased to take one of them by the timber. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13. When I rose this morning we were passing the island of Pantellaria, which lies off the African coast, to the east of Cape Bon. This island is one of the two (Grozo is the other) which claim to have been once the home of Ulysses, where for seven long years ” Calypso in her caves constrained his stay With sweet, reluctant, amorous delay.” The wavy outline of its dark blue mountains impressed usfavourably with a sense of its beauty, but long wandering must have had its usual effect in dissipating his home- thoughts beforegthe sage of profane history could have been lulled, either by female charms or the beauty of nature, into forgetfulness of Penelope, and Telemachus, and his people and kingdom. The island has, however, no charms for a large class of its present inhabitants for they are convicts sent there from Naples. We were near enough to see distinctly the white houses of the town and a large white building in the centre, which is probably either the government house, or a prison, or both. Off Pantellaria, we saw a Maltese fishing boat, with two milk-white sails, at least 130 miles from its home.

Blossoms on the Wind $1.99 In 1978, having suffered the deaths of her father and sister, Juliet Lac and her mother fled a ravaged Vietnam in a small fishing boat crowded with hundreds of refugees, all hoping to find safety and freedom in America. Eight days into the voyage, the struggling vessel was hit by a ferocious storm and quickly sank beneath the waves, taking half its passengers down with it—but miraculously Juliet and her mother survived. After the harrowing ordeals of an Indonesian refugee camp, the two immigrants next faced the challenges of building a new life in California. Adrift in an unsettling new culture, and longing for love and stability, Juliet soon found herself with two sons, an absent husband, and a mother who had moved on to follow her own journey. But a desperate move to Paris enabled Juliet to discover her true voice and win the peace and acceptance she’d always longed for. With a successful career and renewed passion for life, she returned to America to tell her story—a woman’s deeply moving search for identity in a world of change—in words both intimate and profound. Sweeping and filled with haunting imagery, unimaginable loss and great redemption, Blossoms on the Wind is a story too real to be forgotten.”An unforgettable journey of loss, hope, and the resilience of the human spirit.”—Shobhan Bantwal, author of The Dowry Bride

Callaway $19.99 The city of Callaway is located in the Florida Panhandle near the Gulf Coast. Settlers migrated to the area beginning in the 1800s, and in 1856, Pitt Milner Callaway purchased property there, hoping to create a large seaport town. He operated a sawmill, but when it was destroyed in a hurricane in 1858, he left the area and did not return until the 1880s. During the land boom, he built another sawmill and began planning wider streets and home sites. Success in fishing, sawmills, boat building, and a paper mill allowed for growth in the community, which was first incorporated in 1936 with Mayor Albert Reese Patterson. Today the city honors its first mayor, who served for 23 years and lived to be 100, every year on his birthday.

Dark Noon: The Final Voyage of the Fishing Boat Pelican $14.95 Saturday, Labor Day weekend, 1951, dawned mild and cloudless over Montauk. Hundreds of passengers tumbled from the Long Island Rail Road’s weekend express train, the Fisherman’s Special, when it pulled in from New York City. The weather only confirmed the postwar optimism of the blue-collar workers who had thronged to this fishing village for a holiday of deep-sea angling.In America, in 1951, it was easy to believe that anyone could make money and enjoy the good life, and no place suited that mood better than a fishing town. The Montauk fishing business was booming. The dock the arriving anglers swarmed over had been named, without a trace of self-consciousness, Fishangri-la, and the waiting fishing boat captains could see no obstacle to a record weekend.Maybe it was naive optimism that propelled Captain Eddie Carroll away from the dock that morning with sixty-two passengers aboard his fishing boat Pelican, some thirty more than safe capacity. He was everyone’s favorite skipper, a handsome World War II veteran with an easy manner, an endless supply of fish and war stories, a sturdy forty-two-foot boat, newly rebuilt engines, and an uncanny ability to find good fishing. In his pocket that day he carried the ring that he would soon slip on the finger of his Swedish bride-to-be.But Eddie’s luck was about to run out. Even as the Pelican cut its outgoing swath through the sun-spangled Atlantic, a jet-stream trough of Arctic air high overhead, undetected by forecasters, was pressing down on the pool of warm air beneath it like water building behind a dam. The Pelican and forty-five people aboard, including Captain Carroll himself, would never return to shore.Dark Noon is a suspenseful and ultimately heartbreaking sea story. It’s also a journey back to the America of the early 1950s, when a laborer could buy a round-trip train ticket from Queens to Montauk and fish all day with Captain Eddie for
