Our Espresso Book Machine's Monthly Brew for July
Friday, Jul 26, 2013 at 4:53pmWe're always brewing up fresh and flavourful literature with our Espresso Book Machine.
I hope you're thirsty for new books -- this month we've brewed up a HUGE batch of new titles. Not only that, but it's a well-rounded batch: poetry, play scripts, a memoir, and several novels!
In the way of novels, we have The Coming of Dawn by Andrew Silk, a historical novel set in World War II, followed by Primetimes by A.J. McCormick. Primetimes, a fantasy novel that transports its characters and the reader through time, was a bestseller two weeks running this month. Finally for novels we have Private Confessions, a story of conflict-riddled relationships set in the St. James neighbourhood, which is the most recent addition to our ever-growing self-published library. Both Primetimes and Private Confessions were launched at our Grant Park store this month.
Next up is a collection from poet Jeffrey B. Holl entitled Never To Be Forsaken. The collection, Holl's fourth such book, "encapsulates both a sense of hope as it does a profound sense of injustice and tragedy." It is a book that is a stimulating and, at times, challenging read, but ultimately provides a rewarding experience.
For non-fiction, this month we've got Forever Captured - Band Camp Chronicles: The Early Years by Sue Thomas. Recounting her experiences at a band camp for adults, Thomas tells a variety of hilarious and zany stories that are, believe it or not, all true.
And lastly we have a book of play scripts, Four on the Floor, by Dale Watts. Each of the plays (four in total, as you might've guessed) is comedic and farcical, and the intention is to simply make the audience laugh. It's a fun collection that also offers some perspective about contemporary life.
These books were published and printed in-store at McNally Robinson Booksellers Grant Park, and as part of our consignment program they can be found on our shelves as well as our website. Visit our EBM Bookshelf to see a complete listing of all self-published books printed and sold at McNally Robinson.
