House of Glass
by Pramoedya Ananta Toer
Indonesian writer and dissident Pramoedya Anata Toer concludes his epic of Indonesian nationhood in this story of Minke, the talented, bold, and imaginative native leader whose life, told in the preceding three volumes--THIS EARTH OF MANKIND, CHILD OF ALL NATIONS, and FOOTSTEPS--now takes a dramatic new form. Narrated by Pangemanann, a native policeman assigned to monitor Minke and his followers, HOUSE OF GLASS offers a dramatic story and subtle meditation on the role of the native collaborator with colonialism. It is a book founded, in the words of the Washington Post, "on mankind's potential for greatness and shaped by a huge compassion for mankind's weakness." The Buru Quartet tells the fascinating and multifaceted story of Indonesia's birth as a nation. Now the fourth most populous country on earth, Indonesia emerges in all its promise in this masterpiece of world literature.

Honorable Company
by Allan Mallinson
In a rousing follow-up to the critically acclaimed A Close Run Thing , Captain Matthew Hervey makes the hazardous sea voyage to India for what the Duke of Wellington has called “deuced tricky work.” As Wellington’s new aide-de-camp, Matthew’s covert mission will embroil him in the jostling of native potentates and England’s encroaching East India Company — both threatened by lawless bands of horsemen bent on plunder and massacre. When Matthew’s journeying leads him to the small key state of Chintal, he thinks himself close to his objective. But at the rajah’s sumptuous court, he discovers that war in India is waged as often with money and spies as with the clear-cut tactics of the battlefield — with battles won through devious conversations and murderous perfidy. And Matthew, torn between his honor and his destiny, is drawn deeper into the court’s serpentine coils than he ever dreamed....

But when the meeting's moderator, government bigwig Ainsley Greville, is found murdered in his bath, negotiations seem doomed. To make matters worse, it appears the late Greville may have led a less than savory personal life.Unless Thomas Pitt and his wife, Charlotte, can root out the truth, simmering hatreds and passions may again explode in murder, the home rule movement may collapse, and civil war may destroy all of Ireland. . . .
