The
Lost Summer of Louisa May Alcott
by Kelly O'Connor McNees
Deftly
mixing fact and fiction, Kelly O'Connor McNees imagines a love
affair that would threaten Louisa's writing career-and inspire the
story of Jo and Laurie in Little Women. Stuck in small-town New
Hampshire in 1855, Louisa finds herself torn between a love that
takes her by surprise and her dream of independence as a writer in
Boston. |

Work
Song
by Ivan Doig
Lured
like so many others by "the richest hill on earth," Morrie
steps off the train in Butte, copper-mining capital of the world, in
its jittery heyday of 1919. However, while riches elude Morrie, once
again colorful casts of local characters, and their dramas, seek him
out.

Your Ponies
by Stanley Gordon West
The

has an abysmal streak of 0 wins and 93 losses. Their distant and
haunted coach Sam Pickett dreads another season, but the arrival of
two new students fills him and the struggling town with a surge of
hope. Can Sam still inspire his team and resurrect his town?
