Summary
A secret sect of blond, blue-eyed Russians claims to have been "awakened" by a block of ice from outer space. They begin to distribute the ice around the world, but questions remain about the organization's disturbing origins. Author Vladimir Sorokin is a famous member of Russia's underground literary scene who has, in the post-Soviet world, risen into the mainstream. ICE is a stellar example of Sorokin's thrilling explorations of paranoia, fascism, religion, and culture.

Justine
by Lawrence Durrell
The time is the eve of the Second World War. The place is Alexandria, an Egyptian city that once housed the world's greatest library and whose inhabitants are still dedicated to knowledge. But for the obsessed and purblind characters in this mesmerizing first novel of the Alexandria Quartet, the pursuit of knowledge leads to no library, only to the bedrooms in which each seeks to know--and possess--the other. Since its publication 1957, "Justine" has inspired an almost religious devotion among readers and critics. It is not so much a book as it is a self-contained universe, constructed by one of the most elegant and formidably intelligent minds in contemporary fiction.
