      c2014., Adult, BookThug Call No: QWF Fic Pie   Edition: 1st ed.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Department of narrative studies (Series)   Volume: 15.Summary Note: "A middle-aged coming-of-age story-cum-shark-adventure that reveals and celebrates women's power in the trenches. Plunging into the first thirteen days after the 'bastard' pushes his ex-Playboy wife 'Bunny' over a cliff in the Caribbean, " Bunny and Shark " is a fable about island survival, and the perils and potentials of being exiled from one's identity. Literally lost at sea, Bunny is fueled by the miracle of having been saved from sharks by a band of dolphins. And her continued survival depends on her ability to become a spiritual extension of the landscape: she is the mood of the ocean at night as she swims blindly in it, and the protective coolness of the jungle by day as she recovers from a loss of limb; the close-walled refuge of the sailboats anchored in the harbour, and the sparkling deck of an opulent superyacht when, transformed, she makes a triumphant return to her former world."--Goodreads.

      c2013., General, Farrar, Straus and Giroux Call No: Fic Gri   Edition: 1st ed.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: "A brilliant, lush, sweeping historical novel about the rise of the most powerful woman of the Middle Ages: Hild Hild is born into a world in transition. In seventh-century Britain, small kingdoms are merging, usually violently. A new religion is comingashore; the old gods' priests are worrying. Edwin of Northumbria plots to become overking of the Angles, ruthlessly using every tool at his disposal: blood, bribery, belief. Hild is the king's youngest niece. She has the powerful curiosity of a bright child, a will of adamant, and a way of seeing the world--of studying nature, of matching cause with effect, of observing human nature and predicting what will happen next--that can seem uncanny, even supernatural, to those around her. She establishes herself as the king's seer. And she is indispensable--until she should ever lead the king astray. The stakes are life and death: for Hild, her family, her loved ones, and the increasing numbers who seek the protection of the strange girl who can read the worldand see the future. Hild is a young woman at the heart of the violence, subtlety, and mysticism of the early medieval age--all of it brilliantly and accurately evoked by Nicola Griffith's luminous prose. Recalling such feats of historical fiction as Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall and Sigrid Undset's Kristin Lavransdatter, Hild brings a beautiful, brutal world--and one of its most fascinating, pivotal figures, the girl who would become St. Hilda of Whitby--to vivid, absorbing life"--Publisher.

      -- Hit and Mrs.
      c2009., Nimbus/Vagrant Press Call No: Fic Cre    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: "Linda, Bette, Gemma, and Augusta are four lifelong friends who live in Montreal. This year they<U+2019>re all going to turn fifty, so they decide to take a trip to New York together (courtesy of Linda<U+2019>s philandering husband<U+2019>s Visa Platinum). But at the LaGuardia airport washroom, Bette accidentally switches bags with a young mother who<U+2019>s actually smuggling diamonds for the mob, and things start going terribly wrong. When they kill an aggressive cab driver with pepper spray, the four friends know this is not going to be the trip of shopping and Broadway shows they<U+2019>d expected. A series of miscommunications and mishaps entangles the friends even further into the criminal underworld of New York. But out of all the bad luck (Linda<U+2019>s husband is staying at the same hotel as the friends, with his new girlfriend) and bad people (mobsters, drug addicts, and Linda<U+2019>s husband) emerge four fifty-year-old avengers of truth and justice. In the style of Crewe<U+2019>s Shoot Me, Hit and Mrs. is a wildly entertaining comedic romp."--Publisher.
