Lord Nelson Tavern
by Ray SmithThe Lord Nelson Tavern: a Halifax watering hole in the early 1960s. The group of young university students who hang out there-a ramshackle coterie of aspiring artists, economists, poets, and philosophers-come together to gossip and ponder the big questions of art and life, all the while pining after the vain and untouchable Francesca.<P><P>Though these friends soon drift apart, their early rivalries, jealousies and conquests will continue to reverberate.

Lord of the Ralphs
by John Mcnally"I knew kids like Ralph--and they scared me--but none of them had his heart, his humor, or ultimately his entertaining story."--Mitch Albom"McNally's writing is so compelling, not to mention funny, that you're often surprised by sudden, more tender moments."--Sarah Dessen"A serious joy."--Richard RussoEvery school year was a chance to start all over again, and so while the first seven months of 1978 had sucked, I had high hopes that August would be the beginning of the year not sucking. And because it would be my last year of grade school, I had secretly hoped that eighth grade would be different somehow, that a cute girl from another state would transfer to my school and fall insanely in love with me . . . Two boys, Hank and Ralph, create moments of outrageous transcendence in this comic novel about adolescence in the 1970s--a time, like today, when adults couldn't be trusted and just getting by was hard work.

Lord of the Ralphs is a reincarnation of the author's beloved novel for adults, The Book of Ralph, revised and expanded specifically for YA readers.John McNally is the author of three novels, two short story collections, and two books about writing. He is professor and writer-in-residence at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

Lorna Mott Comes Home: A novel

She's a woman with an uncomplicated, sociable nature and an intellectual life.But in an impulsive and planned decision, Lorna has decided to leave her husband, a notorious tombeur (seducer), and his small ancestral village in France, and return to America, much more suited to her temperament than the rectitude of formal starchy France. For Lorna, a beautiful idyll is over, finished, done . . .In Lorna Mott Comes Home, Diane Johnson brings us into the dreamy, anxiety-filled American world of Lorna Mott Dumas, where much has changed and where she struggles to create a new life to support herself. Into the mix--her ex-husband, and the father of her three grown children (all supportive), and grandchildren with their own troubles (money, divorce, real estate, living on the fringe; a thriving software enterprise; a missing child in the far east; grandchildren--new hostages to fortune; and, one, 15 years old, a golden girl yet always different, diagnosed at a young age with diabetes, and now pregnant and determined to have the child) . . . In the midst of a large cast, the precarious balance of comedy and tragedy, happiness and anxiety, contentment and striving, generosity and greed, love and sex, Diane Johnson, our Edith Wharton of expat life, comes home to America to deftly, irresistibly portray, with the lightest of touch, the way we live now.
Lorne: The Man Who Invented Saturday Night Live
by Susan MorrisonNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The definitive biography of Lorne Michaels, the man behind America&’s most beloved comedy show&“The kind of biographical monument usually consecrated to founding fathers, canonical authors and world-historical scientific geniuses.&”—The New York Times (Editors&’ Choice)&“Readers are treated to the Holy Grail for any journalist hoping to crack the show: a warts-and-all week in the life of SNL, where Morrison gets to see the real process of putting the thing together.&”—VarietyOver the fifty years that Lorne Michaels has been at the helm of Saturday Night Live, he has become a revered and inimitable presence in the entertainment world. He&’s a tastemaker, a mogul, a withholding father figure, a genius spotter of talent, a shrewd businessman, a name-dropper, a raconteur, the inspiration for Dr. Evil, the winner of more than a hundred Emmys—and, essentially, a mystery. Generations of writers and performers have spent their lives trying to figure him out, by turns demonizing and lionizing him. He&’s &“Obi-Wan Kenobi&” (Tracy Morgan), the &“great and powerful Oz&” (Kate McKinnon), &“some kind of very distant, strange comedy god&” (Bob Odenkirk).Lorne will introduce you to him, in full, for the first time. With unprecedented access to Michaels and the entire SNL apparatus, Susan Morrison takes readers behind the curtain for the lively, up-and-down, definitive story of how Michaels created and maintained the institution that changed comedy forever.Drawn from hundreds of interviews—with Michaels, his friends, and SNL&’s iconic stars and writers, from Will Ferrell to Tina Fey to John Mulaney to Chris Rock to Dan Aykroyd—Lorne is a deeply reported, wildly entertaining account of a man singularly obsessed with the show that would define his life and have a profound impact on American culture.

Los Boys

Los Pequeños Hombres Libres (Mundodisco #30)
by Terry PratchettLa trigésima novela de la serie «Mundodisco» y la primera protagonizada por la bruja Tiffany Dolorido. La granja de los Dolorido corre peligro. «Otro mundo está chocando con éste», ha dicho el sapo. «Los monstruos vuelven». Por las colinas se abalanzan pesadillas que amenazan a la familia. A ello se suma la desaparición del hermano pequeño de Tiffany Dolorido, resuelta a recuperarlo de las manos de quien se lo haya llevado. Para hacer frente a tan ardua empresa, Tiffany cuenta con una temible arma (una sartén) y el libro de magia de su abuela (que viste el amenazador título Enfermedades de las ovejas). Sin embargo, no estará sola para hacer frente a los peligros que se le presenten durante su búsqueda. La acompañan los Nac Mac Feegle, unos seres azules, bravucones y ladronzuelos que fueron expulsados del País de las Hadas y que apenas sí se levantan unos pocos centímetros del suelo. Ni la valiente niña ni estos pequeños hombres libres pueden imaginarse la extraordinaria aventura en la que están a punto de embarcarse. Reseñas:«Según Pratchett, lo contrario de gracioso es no-gracioso, mientras que sus libros resultan graciosos y serios. Los pequeños hombres libres consigue fundir un montón de lecciones dentro de una historia muy divertida.»Sunday Times «Hay humor de sobra, como la capacidad de Pratchett para darle un giro de noventa grados a cosas que nos resultan de lo más familiares.»The Times «Un claro ejemplo de un clásico de fantasía cómica.»Sunday Express «Mitología celta combinada con Buffy, cazavampiros.»The New York Times Book Review
