  The Booker Prize–winning author of The Sea re-creates the life of the Renaissance mathematical genius Johannes Kepler and his incredible drive to chart the orbits of the planets and the geometry of the universe.Johannes Kepler, born in 1571 in southern Germany, was one of the world’s greatest mathematicians and astronomers. The novel Kepler by John Banville brilliantly re-creates his life and his work, which laid the foundation of the universe even while he was being driven from exile to exile by religious and domestic strife. At the same time, it illuminates the harsh realities of the Renaissance world, rich in imaginative daring but rooted in poverty, squalor and the tyrannical power of emperors."What Banville writes is historically accurate, but his [are] a novelist's truth, and…a lover's prose." —Newsweek

  In the simmering heat of August 1967, a kaleidoscopic minivan carrying a band of hippies – adorned with long hair, beards, beads, sandals, and granny dresses – pulls up at the gates of Ft. Gordon, Augusta, GA, then the heartland of the Military Police. Their mission is unconventional: to instruct the 25th Infantry Division, 60th Mine Scout Dog Platoon in harnessing the keen senses of dogs to detect landmines, trip wires, and hidden tunnels.
   
  The air crackles with animosity as two worlds collide: the free-spirited and the regimented. Yet amidst the discord, Charlie Fasanaro, a young man with wisdom flowing through his veins, recognizes the crucial necessity of forging a bridge across the chasm of enmity that separates them. Their common cause is as clear as it is noble: saving lives in a theatre of war. Unbeknownst to Charlie, he is on the precipice of a spiritual catharsis that will redefine his very essence.
   
  Volunteering to journey to the harsh landscapes of Vietnam alongside the 60th, Charlie is plunged into the visceral cruelties of war. Amidst the chaos,
   he witnesses acts of heroism and self-sacrifice that cast a new light on the soldiers he stands beside; a nobility and honor scarcely seen amidst the peace-loving circles of his civilian life. This revelation propels Charlie into a tumultuous voyage of self-discovery, as he grapples with his identity amidst a whirlwind of contrasting ideologies.
   
  Bridge of Stones navigates through the turbulent waters of a time where ideologies clashed and the essence of humanity was put to the test. As Charlie 
  endeavors to find his footing on the battlefield of conflicting beliefs, readers are ushered through a rich narrative that explores the profound essence of camaraderie, the unyielding spirit of sacrifice, and the indelible marks etched upon souls in times of war and peace.

  One day, Will Millhouse, an ordinary, lonesome bachelor, encounters a young girl who claims to be his daughter from the future. Should he believe her? Cristina of Aspen Aisle is a mystery, a frontier adventure, and a love story that reminds us of the echoing beauty and joy all around us, if we are willing to see with new eyes. 
    
  "It's exactly the kind of book I would love to read but is impossible to find. I suppose I feel...giddy, agape, aglow, awakened to fresh awareness 'that I too am a man in love.' It has all the freshness of a first novel but none of the flaws. I'm in awe of the mastery of plot, suspense, timing, tone: all such delicate matters yet handled with perfect pitch. Case has really learned well from L.M. Montgomery, and indeed improved upon her in that his writing is so brilliantly and unabashedly God-struck. And the clarity of the prose: all the way through there's nary a misstep in sentence structure, rhythm, dialogue, etc. The writing never gets in the way of itself, and this alone is no small feat." 
  —MIKE MASON, best-selling author of The Mystery of Marriage and Same Old, Same New

  Self Reliance by Ralph Waldo Emerson is a powerful call to individuality, self-trust, and nonconformity. In this timeless essay, Emerson urges readers to embrace their own instincts and inner wisdom rather than bowing to societal expectations. He argues that true fulfillment comes from self-expression and authenticity, not from seeking approval or following tradition. With vivid imagery and bold declarations, Emerson champions the idea that greatness lies in independence, courage, and the willingness to chart one’s own path—no matter how unconventional. Inspiring and thought-provoking, Self-Reliance remains a foundational text in American transcendentalism, encouraging readers to break free from external influences and trust in the power of their own minds.
