    Over a decade later, when Bouch finally retired with a plethora of records under his belt and to huge acclaim from the public, he took grim satisfaction in relating this piece of history. Through my Eyes is the story of a man with remarkable sporting prowess. Born into a sports-mad family in East London, he excelled in squash, tennis and rugby before choosing cricket as his preferred sport. His extraordinary achievements on the field are well known – he was voted SA player of the year in 1998, 2000 and 2006. What is not so well known, and makes up much of this book, are the behind-the-scenes stories and anecdotes. Stories of staring down the barrel of defeat and of celebrating victory; of developing strong bonds with teammates Graeme Smith, Jacques Kallis and others that go way beyond mere friendship. What emerges is the image of a man who always fought for the underdog, whose never-say-die attitude inspires those around him. Bouch’s career was brought to a dramatic end on a cricket pitch in England when the bail of a stump punctured his left eye. But, in his own words, ‘I lost sight but gained vision.’ True to his character of gritty determination, Bouch has rededicated his life to a new cause, that of the environment and particularly the critically endangered rhino.

    Strassburger begins her story with her parents' courtship in the golden years of pre-Castro Cuba. Her memoir recounts how her father's mental collapse and the communist revolution of 1959 uprooted her privileged childhood, both physically and emotionally. While providing substantial background on Fidel Castro's political revolt, Strassburger focuses on her family's experiences: The appropriation of their wealth and properties by the rebel regime. How families were torn apart as children were taken from their parents, forced to undergo communist indoctrination in Russia. Strassburger narrowly escaped such a fate through Operation Peter Pan, one of the largest political exoduses of children in history. Fearing for her future, her parents sent her out of Cuba-alone-in 1961. She relates the terror of being separated from her family and living in a foreign country without them. With affecting detail, Strassburger depicts her family's disintegration as her father spiraled into schizophrenia and communism forced them into exile. They left behind their loved ones, their homes, and their identities to face the hardships of a new life in the United States. Palm Trees in the Snow is a family's story of love, sacrifice, and survival. It is the author's tribute to a way of life lost forever and the embracing of a new one in America.

    is going to get any sleep. Robert Ferrigno's brilliant first novel, The Horse Latitudes, was lauded as "the most memorable fiction debut of the season" by Time magazine, "riveting, breathtaking, extraordinary" by Playboy, and "a double-barreled shotgun of a novel" by The Boston Sunday Globe. Ferrigno's dazzlingly sure handling of noir fiction, his cleverly conceived characters, and explosive plotting created a best-seller worthy of the highest praise, and The Cheshire Moon takes Ferrigno's skill even further, on a dizzying roller coaster of greed, lust, and redemption. Quinn is a former investigative reporter who got burned by a source two years ago, with fatal consequences. These days he sticks to celebrity interviews and games of go fish! with his daughter, but when a friend from the bad old days is found dead, it's up to Quinn and his sultry partner, Jen Takamura, to find the killer. The search leads from high-profile politicos to Rubenesque talk-show queens, silken criminals to dessicated ex-movie stars. Caught in a tightening spiral, Quinn and Jen are drawn into ever deeper and more dangerous passions, a sizzling counterpoint to the frustrated rage of the killer who is now stalking them. Filled with a hypnotic sense of evil, charged with a comic energy and a violently dark eroticism, The Cheshire Moon is a noir Beauty and the Beast that perfectly captures the heat and smoke of southern California.
