  Hilda is saved from destitution by Edwin Clayhanger who marries her. The two, with Hilda's son by her disastrous 'marriage' to George Cannon, are living in Bursley. Edwin does not enjoy an entirely happy marriage with Hilda because of her outspokenness. Hilda has strong opinions on matters which at the time were considered to be a male preserve – for example, on Edwin’s business. She also does things without telling him. As a consequence, Edwin has his doubts about their marriage and is angered by his wife just as he had been by his father. The book shows how Hilda and Edwin attempt to compromise, its title being a play on words: does it mean "these two" or "these separate"? It is suggested that they had both become perhaps too set in their ways before their marriage, even though each was in some way 'saved' by their union. (Summary by Simon Evers)

  Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature 
   
  Rabindranath Tagore was the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. More than a century later, his stories still feel startlingly alive. 
  In Selected Short Stories, one of the world's great literary voices turns his clear, compassionate gaze on ordinary lives caught at extraordinary moments. A haunted marble palace on a lonely riverside, a talkative child and the Afghan fruit-seller who loves her as his own daughter, a village boy exiled to the suffocating city, a mute girl given in marriage, a loyal servant destroyed by devotion -- Tagore finds the epic in the everyday, the universal in the intimate. 
  Blending lyric beauty with psychological insight, these tales move effortlessly between Calcutta streets and quiet villages, between ghostly apparitions and the harsh light of social reality. They are stories of love and separation, guilt and sacrifice, poverty and pride. But above all, the frail, fierce dignity of the human heart. 
  Admired by writers from W.B. Yeats to William Butler, compared to Chekhov and Maupassant yet unlike anyone but himself, Tagore helped shape modern world literature. His fiction has been read, retranslated, and rediscovered across continents for generations. 
  This collection is the perfect doorway into his work -- essential for lovers of classic literature, book clubs seeking deeply moving stories, and any reader who wants to understand why Tagore's voice, born in nineteenth-century Bengal, still speaks so powerfully to our own time.

  It’s 1929 and a rugged new generation is taking the helm of Blue Moon, Montana’s most infamous and powerful families. But even as the future burns bright, old rivalries, heartbreaks, buried secrets, and ranching feuds still loom as large as the western sky in a tale perfect for fans of Yellowstone craving western familial sagas. 
    
  At 25, Joseph Dollarhide is struggling to find his place as the future head of his ranching family. His father, Blake, though disabled in an accident, is as domineering as ever. Joseph’s childhood friend, Chase Calder, has inherited the rival Calder operation, and for both young men, longstanding battles over water and grass continue. But there’s yet another weight on Joseph’s shoulders. 
    
  Years ago, Joseph abandoned his teenage love, Annabeth, to court glamorous Lucy Merriweather, a seductive trickster. The affair of course imploded, and Annabeth married a farmer, Silas Mosby, and had two children. But now Joseph has spotted Annabeth and her family in town … and he has no doubt that her oldest, a boy, is his. 
    
  Joseph’s love for Annabeth never died—and Annabeth, too, still has feelings for him, though they’re tainted by anger. Learning that Silas is involved in a bootlegging ring leaves Joseph troubled. Seeking advice, he turns to his natural father, Mason, a reformed bootlegger. They’ve been estranged, but perhaps that can change. 
    
  Meanwhile, Joseph feels pressed to start his own family. The town’s sweet new schoolteacher seems a perfect match. But as the strain of longstanding feuds persist, and Lucy reappears, flush with stolen money and armed with blackmail, Joseph and some others in Blue Moon will find out just how strong they really are. 
    
  The epic tale of the settling of the American West comes to vivid life in this inspiring saga of love, hope, and endurance.

  Your Driver Is Waiting is a razor-sharp, darkly comic novel that follows a rideshare driver navigating the chaos of late capitalism, systemic injustice, and personal disillusionment. When her mother dies and her life begins to unravel, she clings to the only control she has left—her car, her routes, and the steady stream of passengers who come and go. But everything shifts when she meets a captivating activist whose promises of change ignite hope, rage, and unexpected romance. As tensions rise and protests ignite across the city, the line between justice and revenge begins to blur in a story that’s equal parts satire, heartbreak, and rebellion.
