THE TATAMI TIME MACHINE BLUES

Tomihiko Morimi, Emily Balistrieri

(Translated by)

In the boiling heat of summer, a broken remote control for an air conditioner threatens life as we know it in this reality-bending, time-slipping sequel to The Tatami Galaxy.

During a scorching August in Kyoto, our protagonist and his friend Ozu are arguing. Ozu has spilled Coke on the remote control to the only AC in their shabby apartment. But when a strange man named Tamura appears, claiming to be a time traveller from 25 years into the future, our protagonist has a brilliant idea: the sweetest revenge would be to go back one day in time and retrieve the functioning remote control. His simple fix is complicated by Ozu and several others who are also eager to take a ride back in time. But in attempting to alter the past, our protagonist foresees the world’s extinction.

Chenneville

A Novel of Murder, Loss, and Vengeance

Paulette Jiles

Consumed with grief and driven by vengeance, a man undertakes an unrelenting odyssey across the lawless post–Civil War frontier seeking redemption in this fearless novel from the award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of News of the World

When Union soldier John Chenneville returns home from the Civil War, he finds his beloved sister and her family brutally murdered. Travelling through the unforgiving landscape of a shattered nation in the midst of Reconstruction, John braves winter storms and confronts desperate people in pursuit of revenge. Untethered, single-minded in purpose, he will not be deterred. Not by the U.S. Marshal who threatens to arrest him for murder should he succeed. And not by Victoria Reavis, the telegraphist aiding him in his quest, yet hoping he’ll choose to embrace a life with her instead. And as he trails the murderer into Texas, John accepts that this final reckoning between them may cost him more than all he’s already lost.
