Upcountry by R.M. Doyon: “For Jane Schumacher, however, nothing is ever simple. Nothing is cut and dried. Set against an engaging backdrop of modern political times, this book is a riveting, page-turning story of sibling strife and affection, of sadness and grief, and finally redemption and rebirth.” (October 2010)
Mango Mood by Sharmila Kamat: “The story of Goa, India’s best known travel destination and home to some of the most enchanting beaches in the world, related tongue firmly in cheek. Using mostly gentle sometimes biting satire, the author offers an up, close and personal account of the people, culture and headline grabbing events in that part of India that once spoke with a Portuguese accent.” (November 2010)
House of Skin: Prize-Winning Stories by Kiana Davenport: “The stories are set in islands across the Pacific where the author has lived and traveled extensively – Hawaii, Papua New Guinea, Nauru, Fiji, Vanuatu – parts of of the world only barely ex-plored in contemporary literature … These are provocative, often shocking, tales of obsession, love, racism, addiction, betrayal, even murder, but told in such sensuous, richly-textured prose each story is rendered magical and timeless.” (November 2010)
