The Color of Hope
by Susan Madison
Ruth Connelly used to think she had the perfect life--an attractive husband, two children, a partnership in a Boston law firm, and a summerhouse where generations of her family have reveled in the elemental beauty of the Maine coast. But without her even realizing it, everything has started disintegrating. This summer, there is no escape from the tensions which have surfaced between her, Paul, and their beautiful, troubled sixteen-year-old daughter Josie--or from the tragedy that overwhelms them when a long-promised sailing trip turns their son's birthday treat into a nightmare. Trapped in a spiral of guilt and denial, Ruth knows only the darkness of grief until she finds the courage to return to Maine and confront her loss. There, she finally learns to understand why we sometimes inflict the greatest pain on those we love the most. In a novel that brings to mind bestsellers like THE PILOT'S WIFE, A MAP OF THE WORLD, and DEEP END OF THE OCEAN, Susan Madison looks deep into the heart of marriage and motherhood with unforgettable power.

The Nuclear Age
by Tim O'Brien
At the age of forty-nine, after a lifetime of insomnia and midnight peril, William Cowling believes the hour has come for him to seize control. He begins to dig a hole in his backyard: a shelter against impending doom for his daughter (who thinks he's crazy) and his wife (who won't speak to him). As he works, he reviews his life, and how the injustices and insanities of our age--from the vicissitudes of high school to the heartbreaking compromises of political commitment, from "the slow hardening of a generation's arteries" in the wake of Vietnam to the very real threat of nuclear annihilation that everyone evades and denies--have led him to the edge of his own abyss. Ultimately, he must make a choice: safety or sanity, love or fidelity to the truth.
