When pain can be sealed away and forgotten, what else is lost? In this mesmerizing science fiction novel The Melody of Memory, prepare to be transported to Tyra, a troubled world plagued by cycles of collapse and darkness that have haunted its colonists for centuries. As civilization begins to claw its way back from the brink, a haunting question emerges—will the curse repeat itself once more? For amidst the tragic cycles, a unique technology persists—a way to tie traumatic memories to melodies and store them away in boxes. While this gift can be a blessing, it has also become a tool of repression, inhibiting humanity's growth and ability to learn from past mistakes, for no one remembers making them, and the cycle continues. Enter Aya. Caught on the wrong side of the border as a child, Aya Voss has always been unlucky. Separated from her homeland and family, she endures a life of isolation and torment, perpetually an outsider. Forced to abandon her education and manufacture weapons against her own people, Aya struggles to survive while yearning to reconnect with the loved ones she left behind. War, plague, and madness ravage her world, tearing away everything she holds dear. Can Aya and her new generation break free from this destructive cycle and forge a new destiny? The Melody of Memory weaves a compelling coming-of-age story as Aya finds herself thrust into a revolution—a revolution fueled by courage, purpose, and the determination to heal a wounded world. With each step, she discovers the strength to transcend her own pain and help shape a brighter future for Tyra. Written by the incomparable Cheryl Brin, The Melody of Memory provokes deep meditation on how humans process pain. Buy today and join the conversation.

Alfred Busi lives alone in his villa overlooking the waves. Famed in his tiny Mediterranean town for his music, he is mourning the recent death of his wife and quietly living out his days. Then one night, Busi is viciously attacked by an intruder in his own courtyard—bitten and scratched. He insists his assailant was neither man nor animal. Soon, Busi’s account of what happened is being embellished to fan the flames of old rumor—of an ancient race of people living in the surrounding forest. It is also used to spark new controversy, inspiring claims that something must finally be done about the town’s poor, whose numbers have been growing. In trademark crystalline prose, Jim Crace portrays a man taking stock of his life and looking into an uncertain future, while bearing witness to a community in the throes of great change.

In this sweeping epic, true love transcends the brutality of war. Octavio Ribeiro loves truth, beauty, literature, and above all else, his wife Salomé. As a student in Chile, he courted her with the words of great poets, and she fell in love with his fierce intelligence and uncompromising passion. Then a sudden coup brings a brutal military dictatorship into power, and puts anyone who resists in grave danger. Salomé begs Octavio to put his family’s safety first, rather than speak against the new regime. When he refuses, it’s Salomé who pays the price. Belatedly awake to the reality of their danger, Octavio finds political asylum for the family in Sweden. But for Salomé, the path back to love is fraught with painful secrets, and the knowledge that they can never go home again. Previously published as Swedish Tango
