  Killing Gilda

  A beautiful nineteen-year-old named Gilda becomes the mistress of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran. She dreams of becoming his wife. The narrator, in love with Gilda, follows clues about her death two years after the affair. 
  During an assassination attempt on the Shah, he gets shot on the steps of the Marble Palace. As he puts it, "I took a bullet for my king up the ass and got a jester's seat, the best seat, to watch the fall of the Persian Empire." 
  Killing Gilda is infused with intrigue, but at its heart, it's a love story that follows the best traditions of classics like The Beauty and the Beast. We enter the rarified atmosphere of the court, the young woman's life, and the reasons for her death. We follow the characters through the Paris of Madame Claude, the Shah's ski resort at St. Moritz, and Doctor Pitanguy's plastic surgery clinic in Baden Baden. 
  The story, with its scheming characters and rare glimpses into Shah's private life, eschews easy labels. The Shah's sexual adventurism didn't stop his liberal policies for women's rights.

  Cimarron

  Edna Ferber

  Cimarron is Edna Ferber's sweeping novel of the American frontier and the making of modern society. Set during the Oklahoma land rush and its aftermath, the novel follows the Cravat family as they navigate ambition, displacement, and moral compromise in a rapidly changing territory where law, ownership, and identity are still being defined.
  
  At the center of the novel is the tension between idealism and reality. Public progress—new towns, newspapers, courts, and businesses—emerges alongside private failures, broken relationships, and unacknowledged injustice. Ferber presents the frontier not as myth, but as a social experiment shaped by power, exclusion, and endurance.
  
  Broad in scope yet attentive to personal cost, Cimarron examines how nations are formed through both vision and violence. Clear-eyed and unsentimental, the novel remains a foundational work of American historical fiction, capturing the construction of order out of expansion and uncertainty.
