 stock image, actual book may vary A man returns to the town where a baffling murder took place 27 years earlier, determined to get to the bottom of the story. Just hours after marrying the beautiful Angela Vicario, everyone agrees, Bayardo San Roman returned his bride in disgrace to her parents. Her distraught family forced her to name her first lover; and her twin brothers announced their intention to murder Santiago Nasar for dishonoring their sister. Yet if everyone knew the murder was going to happen, why did no one intervene to stop it? The more that is learned, the less is understood, and as the story races to its inexplicable conclusion, an entire society--not just a pair of murderers is put on trial.

 stock image, actual book may vary This astonishing book by the Nobel laureate Gabriel Garc a M rquez chronicles the 1990 kidnappings of ten Colombian men and women--all but one a journalist--by the Medell n drug boss Pablo Escobar. The carefully orchestrated abductions were Escobar's attempt to extort from the government its assurance that he, and other narcotics traffickers, would not be extradited to the United States if they were to surrender. From the highest corridors of government to the domain of the ruthless drug cartels, we watch the unfolding of a bizarre drama replete with fascinating characters: C sar Gaviria, the nation's cool and secretive president; Diana Turbay, a famous television journalist and magazine editor; three indomitable women who are imprisoned for miserable months in a small room with a light perpetually on; an eighty-two-year-old priest with a mission to bring the regime and the cartel to the negotiating table; and Escobar himself, the legendary drug baron who changes his bodyguards daily and maintains a private zoo with giraffes and hippos from Africa. All of this takes place in a country where presidential candidates and cabinet officers are routinely assassinated; where police go into the Medell n slums to murder boys they think may be working for Escobar; but where brave and honest citizens are trying desperately to make democracy survive. An international best-seller, News of a Kidnapping combines journalistic tenacity with the breathtaking language and perception that distinguish the writings of Gabriel Garc a M rquez. It draws us into a world that, like some phantasmagorical setting in a great Garc a M rquez novel, we can scarcely believe exists--but that continually shocks us with its cold, hard reality.

 stock image, actual book may vary In the first century BC, following the Roman annexation of Egypt, Kebryn, a young, bi-racial, Hebrew- Egyptian boy toils away in the sun baked fields unknowingly indentured as collateral for his fathers debts. Enduring the hardships of poverty and slave labor, he is discovered by Aurelius, a retired, Roman general who mourns the loss of his nephew and lover, Germanicus. The smitten Aurelius barters for the young Kebryn's freedom and takes him from the barren, desert dwelling of his rearing into the lavish, marble halls of Alexandria. Aurelius' villa is located within the Ptolemaic compound, once inhabited by Cleopata VII. Now, immersed in the influence of the new Roman-Egyptian world, Kebryn will rise from ignorant peasantry to cultured aristocracy. The price for such a privilege, however, is the sacrifice of his natural progression into Manhood.

But one day Kun Ma and Kun Pa announce that Ting must start working at a local radio factory to help support the family. As the days and weeks pass, Noi anxiously sees her own fate reflected in her sister s constricting world.
