ADICHIE, CHIMAMANDA NGOZI  Half of a Yellow Sun
Harper Perennial. 2007. (ISBN: 0007200285) Soft Cover. The sweeping novel from the author of 'Purple Hibiscus', shortlisted for the Orange Prize, and winner of the Commonwealth Writers Award. This highly anticipated novel from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is set in Nigeria during the 1960s, at the time of a vicious civil war in which a million people died and thousands were massacred in cold blood. The three main characters in the novel are swept up in the violence during these turbulent years. One is a young boy from a poor village who is employed at a university lecturer's house. The other is a young middle-class woman, Olanna, who has to confront the reality of the massacre of her relatives. And the third is a white man, a writer who lives in Nigeria for no clear reason, and who falls in love with Olanna's twin sister, a remote and enigmatic character. As these people's lives intersect, they have to question their own responses to the unfolding political events. This extraordinary novel is about Africa in a wider sense: about moral responsibility, about the end of colonialism, about ethnic allegiances, about class and race; and about the ways in which love can complicate all of these things. Used - Fair/Used - Fair.

BANK, MELISSA  The Wonder Spot
Penguin. 2006. (ISBN: 0141021845) Soft Cover. Meet Sophie Applebaum - as enchanting a heroine as Jane in "The Girl's Guide to Hunting and Fishing". Sophie is an outsider and an inventor of rules, simply because she does not fit into any neat description of who she might be: she's Jewish, but lacks religious feeling; a book-lover, but a mediocre student; a loyal friend often unpleasantly surprised; and a less-than-devoted employee. She falls in love precipitously, but isn't sure whom she should marry - or if she wants to marry at all despite all the family pressures and social clamour on this subject. We follow the life cycle of her family, and we follow her to school, through college, to her first job with terrible typing skills, through to the realisation that work isn't fulfilment, that your parents aren't quite what you thought and that Mr. Right is sometimes only all right..Readers who loved "The Girl's Guide to Hunting and Fishing" won't be disappointed; this is a sparkling, heartfelt, deeply explorative book characterized, as always, by Melissa Bank's light touch, signature humour, and her vast talent for capturing a moment, taking it to heart, and giving it back to her readers. Used - Very Good/Used - Very Good.

BOND, STEPHANIE  Our Husband
Pan. 2001. (ISBN: 0330482831) Soft Cover. Natalie Carmichael can't believe how lucky she is to have landed such a perfect husband. Raymond is romantic, gentle and strong, though absent more than she'd like So naturally when she gets a call from the hospital saying he's been in an accident she rushes to be by his side. But when she arrives, it is to discover she has been beaten to it by not one but two other wives. Raymond dies, apparently of the shock of being rumbled as a bigamist, but an autopsy reveals it is murder. And so begins an hilarious murder hunt - the police have reason to suspect all three women, and indeed they all certainly have means and motive. But they in turn believe there's someone else in the picture and so they set off on a crazy roadtrip to find her. It soon becomes evident that these three astonishingly different women have more in common than a husband. This is a fast-paced comedy about friendship, romance and love. St Martin's Press hold the US rights and don't plan to publish until the later half of 2000. Very Good/Very Good.
