Anul aparitiei: 2013

An extraordinary debut novel that hits that sweet spot where humor and melancholy comfortably coexist (Entertainment Weekly) Before his brief marriage imploded, Neill Bassett took a job feeding data into what could be the world s first sentient computer. Only his attempt to give it language through the journals his father left behind after committing suicide has unexpected consequences. Amidst this turmoil, Neill meets Rachel, a naive young woman escaping a troubled past, and finds himself unexpectedly drawn to her and the possibilities she holds. But as everything he thought about the past becomes uncertain, every move forward feels impossible."

The Siege: 68 Hours Inside the Taj Hotel

Anul aparitiei: 2013

In the page-turning tradition of "Black Hawk Down," the definitive account of the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai Mumbai, 2008. On the night of November 26, Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists attacked targets throughout the city, including the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, one of the world's most exclusive luxury hotels. For sixty-eight hours, hundreds were held hostage as shots rang out and an enormous fire raged. When the smoke cleared, thirty-one people were dead and many more had been injured. Only the courageous actions of staff and guests--including Mallika Jagad, Bob Nichols, and Taj general manager Binny Kang--prevented a much higher death toll. With a deep understanding of the region and its politics and a narrative flair reminiscent of "Midnight in Peking," journalists Cathy Scott-Clark and Adrian Levy vividly unfold the tragic events in a real-life thriller filled with suspense, tragedy, history, and heroism.
