In Due Season: A Catholic Life by Wilkes, Paul Praise for In Due Season "Paul Wilkes is that rarest of people--a deeply spiritual man who is also an absolutely exquisite writer. His absorbing new memoir reveals the wonderful things that can happen when you allow God to lead you along life's often bumpy path--whether or not you know where the journey will lead. This is a beautifully written, frequently haunting, and always fascinating story of seeking and finding, serving and loving, and--ultimately--dying and rising. Highly recommended." --James Martin, SJ, author, My Life with the Saints "Paul Wilkes's biography takes us through Paul's life, but through the stages of our own lives as well. As a result, at the end of it we can see how we, too, have become more than we ever thought we could be. Wilkes is a great writer-he has a refreshing style, a direct voice, and a stark and unfurbished honesty, even about himself. "In Due Season" has all the marks of Augustine's Confessions or Merton's Seven Storey Mountain. It gives the rest of us, whatever we've done, wherever we've been, hope. It helps us see the forest of our lives despite the trees." --Joan Chittister, author, Called to Question: A Spiritual Memoir

Last Night in Montreal by Mandel, Emily St. John Last Night in Montreal is a rare achievement, a gripping, mysterious, and original literary novel about family secrets and the unbearable weight they place on young shoulders. Emily St. John Mandel is a wonderful and refreshingly unorthodox writer, and this should be the start of a brilliant career.--Rich Rennicks, Malaprop's Bookstore/Cafe (Asheville, NC)
