Book Description
A MELANCHOLY FALL Summer vacation draws to a close, and the Fall season brings with it new worries for the demi girls—even for the energetic vampire Hikari. Surrounded by friends who are chasing their dreams and feeling out of place in a world of humans, Hikari becomes uncharacteristically gloomy…and nearly ends up hurting the person she cares for most. Himari thinks back on how her twin sister turned from shy and reserved to the sunniest vampire you’d ever meet, all due to a promise they made to each other long ago. Meanwhile, Takahashi-sensei grapples with what it means to be a teacher—after all his support for the demis, where will he be when it’s time for them to stand up on their own?

The Laughing Monsters
Author: Denis Johnson
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 0374709238
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Denis Johnson's New York Times bestseller, The Laughing Monsters, is a high-suspense tale of kaleidoscoping loyalties in the post-9/11 world that shows one of our great novelists at the top of his game. Roland Nair calls himself Scandinavian but travels on a U.S. passport. After ten years' absence, he returns to Freetown, Sierra Leone, to reunite with his friend Michael Adriko. They once made a lot of money here during the country's civil war, and, curious to see whether good luck will strike twice in the same place, Nair has allowed himself to be drawn back to a region he considers hopeless. Adriko is an African who styles himself a soldier of fortune and who claims to have served, at various times, the Ghanaian army, the Kuwaiti Emiri Guard, and the American Green Berets. He's probably broke now, but he remains, at thirty-six, as stirred by his own doubtful schemes as he was a decade ago. Although Nair believes some kind of money-making plan lies at the back of it all, Adriko's stated reason for inviting his friend to Freetown is for Nair to meet Adriko's fiancée, a grad student from Colorado named Davidia. Together the three set out to visit Adriko's clan in the Uganda-Congo borderland—but each of these travelers is keeping secrets from the others. Their journey through a land abandoned by the future leads Nair, Adriko, and Davidia to meet themselves not in a new light, but rather in a new darkness.
