Book excerpt: This biography of the brilliant author of War and Peace and Anna Karenina “should become the first resort for everyone drawn to its titanic subject” (Booklist, starred review). In November 1910, Count Lev Tolstoy died at a remote Russian railway station. At the time of his death, he was the most famous man in Russia, more revered than the tsar, with a growing international following. Born into an aristocratic family, Tolstoy spent his existence rebelling against not only conventional ideas about literature and art but also traditional education, family life, organized religion, and the state. In “an epic biography that does justice to an epic figure,” Rosamund Bartlett draws extensively on key Russian sources, including fascinating material that has only become available since the collapse of the Soviet Union (Library Journal, starred review). She sheds light on Tolstoy’s remarkable journey from callow youth to writer to prophet; discusses his troubled relationship with his wife, Sonya; and vividly evokes the Russian landscapes Tolstoy so loved and the turbulent times in which he lived.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Empire Falls returns to North Bath, the Rust Belt town first brought to unforgettable life in Nobody’s Fool. Now, ten years later, Doug Raymer has become the chief of police and is tormented by the improbable death of his wife—not to mention his suspicion that he was a failure of a husband. Meanwhile, the irrepressible Sully has come into a small fortune, but is suddenly faced with a VA cardiologist’s estimate that he only has a year or two left to live. As Sully frantically works to keep the bad news from the important people in his life, we are reunited with his son and grandson . . . with Ruth, the married woman with whom he carried on for years . . . and with the hapless Rub Squeers, who worries that he and Sully aren’t still best friends. Filled with humor, heart, and hard-luck characters you can’t help but love, Everybody’s Fool is a crowning achievement from one of the great storytellers of our time. Look for Everybody’s Fool, available now, and Somebody’s Fool, coming soon.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Submerged: Scenes From Russian Life in Four Acts Sprung out of darkness and misery, enjoying for a brief moment the thrill of fame and power, and then plunged once more into misery and disease, - this has been the career of Gorki, "the bitter voice of Russia." Alexei Maximovitch Pyeshkov was born March 26th, 1869, at Nijny-Novgorod. His grandfather had been a Lieutenant under Nicholas I until his degradation for cruelty to his soldiers. Orphaned at nine through an epidemic of cholera which he himself, fortunately or unfortunately survived, Gorki was apprenticed to a shoemaker who dismissed him after a trial of eight weeks. Having been employed successively as draughtsman, assistant dauber of holy images and second-hand cook on a Volga steamer, he found all these distasteful to him. As an avocation to his dishwashing, he perused "The Tempest" and "A Midsummer Night's Dream," copies of which he found on the ship. Determined to go to the university he hastened to Kazan, where like Jude, the Obscure, he found that education actually had to be paid for. This was perhaps the greatest disappointment of his life.
