Readers who love novels about family secrets will love the slow unraveling of the secrets in this novel, which revolve around the love of mothers for daughters and the heartache of not knowing who one really is. We call many things love; some of them damage, and some of them heal. This novel is about three generations of women and the painful secret that must be revealed at long last before the healing can comeReaders of a certain age may remember the "Poldark" TV miniseries on Masterpiece Theatre. Well, the book is better. The hairstyles and the women's make-up don't get dated, and a novel lasts longer than a one-hour television episode. There's a love story here, with the ambitious waif Demelza setting her cap for none other than the master of the house, Ross Poldark, but there's a lot more. Readers will get a thorough, heart-wrenching portrayal of the divide between the relatively rich and the dreadfully poor in the Cornish mining country of the late eighteenth centuryThe first half of this novel is better than the last half, but the first half is good enough to land the whole novel on this list. It's a romp featuring a young oculist, a beautiful but neurotic young woman, Sigmund Freud and a dybbuk - a wandering dead soul capable of possessing the bodies of the living. It's funny, tragic and, given the story's general outrageousness, astonishingly true to history. And it's not that the second half of the novel is bad - it just pales by comparison with the first half.I kept hearing good things about Sansom's mystery series featuring a hunchbacked lawyer in Henry VIII's England, so I finally made time to read this first installment. It works as a mystery in every way, but has as much depth and perspective as a solid, serious historical novel. Shardlake, the sleuth, works for Thomas Cromwell, so this novel makes superb reading for anyone anxiously awaiting Hilary Mantel's sequel to Wolf Hall. The Cromwell of this novel is darker than Mantel's Cromwell but by no means a cardboard villain, and Dissolution is set during the later period of Cromwell's ascendancy to be covered in the Wolf Hall sequel.This is a really funny mystery, if you like just a touch of the macabre in your humor. The heroine's husband comes home one day and announces they're going into the movie business. This is in xxxx when movies, still produced mainly in New York and New Jersey, were in their infancy and more likely to be a ticket to poverty than to wealth, especially since Thomas A. Edison was determined to keep movie-making as his own private monopoly. To tell the truth, I can't remember whodunnit any longer, but I do remember how hard I laughed and what I learned about the early days of moving picturesThere's nothing like an exotic setting, and medieval Japan is as exotic as they come. And yet, despite their exoticism, the characters in this mystery often feel as familiar as the folks down the street (assuming a few of them are rather thuggish). Akitada's struggles with the bureaucracy in his government job seem quite twenty-first-century despite the elaborate court gowns and imperial hierarchy involved. The suspense of his hunt for a ruthless killer will have readers glued to the pageThis mystery is full of well-drawn characters, some fictional, some based on historical figures. It's also a puzzler that will keep readers guessing. And it offers some scenes of hair-raising suspense. But the real star of the show is fin-de-siécle Vienna. Jones lived in Vienna for some years and has written nonfiction about the city, but it takes real writerly magic to conjure up the Vienna of the past, and he does it so masterfully readers will almost feel they're physically there (and are likely to wish the food the characters tuck into was physically in front of them).This rich, intelligent novel won the xxxx Booker Prize for good reason. Wolf Hall offers a fresh, fascinating perspective on a period one might think had been done to death: the years when Henry VIII of England struggled for a papal dispensation to set aside his queen of many years, Katherine of Aragon, so he could marry the luscious vixen Anne Boleyn and obtain a son in legitimate wedlock. Mantel audaciously chooses Henry's minister Thomas Cromwell as her entry point into the controversy and paints a compelling, sympathetic portrait of him in contrast to a not-so-saintly Thomas More. Luminous and utterly unlike any other novel set in the Middle Ages that I have read, The Jewel Trader of Pegu is about a Venetian Jew, still mourning the untimely death of his wife, who travels to exotic Pegu (later part of Burma) on a jewel-buying expedition for his uncle. Here he is a much greater curiosity to people for being European than for being a Jew. As he sheds the part of his identity shaped by being an object of prejudice, he begins to shed his own prejudices as well. I loved this novel because of the vast sense of compassion emanating from it.Few novelists write as well about warfare as Bernard Cornwell. Agincourt, about the battle the army of Henry V fought near that location in xxxx during the Hundred Years' War, strikes just the right balance of fear, courage, pride, the exhilaration of survival, and horror at war's carnage. He also conveys the medieval mind, a mixture of ruthless practicality and proneness to superstition and mystical visions, with unusual skill. I would want to be any closer to the real thing than Cornwell brought me in this novel.The spunky, plain-spoken but funny heroine of this novel is no beauty. I fell in love with her partly because of that ? and also because of her combination of survival instincts and generosity of spirit. I knew that aristocratic women of the past often gave their babies into the care of wet nurses to be suckled and raised for the first few years, but I knew very little about the lives of the wet nurses themselves. This well-researched novel opened my eyes to the wrenching dilemmas many of them faced.Unlike his fellow Confederate generals, Nathan Bedford Forrest was born into poverty, raised himself to a position of wealth through the distasteful occupations of slave trading and land speculation, and had no formal military training. Hthe had courage and intelligence to spare, though, and a more complex relationship with his slaves than stereotypes might suggest. Madison Smartt Bell does him justice in a novel that keeps circling back to the Fort Pillow Massacre, one of the most searing, shocking events of the American Civil War, adding layers of meaning each time.Quakertown is the story of a black girl whose overabundant compassion lands her in trouble when she falls in love with a white boy and also a proud black World War I veteran. It is also the story of a thriving black community betrayed by one of its most respected members, a man who meant well but loved his magnificent garden just a little too much. Though many of the characters behave badly, no one in this graceful, inspiring novel, black or white, can be easily condemned. Many novels have been written about the mistresses of kings, but Gulland's tale stands out because the love story between young Louise de la Vallière and King Louis XIV plays second fiddle to the love story between Louise and a remarkable white horse. Absolute monarchy breeds narcissism, and it's a rare king who did not break the hearts of the women who loved him. Here, the precise, insightful writing and the story of woman and horse add dimension and a note of spiritual triumph to what might otherwise have been a tale of depressing familiarity.Readers can't help but empathize with the eager-to-please, sensually alive sake brewer's daughter in this novel of nineteenth century Japan. Rie lives for her father's goal of making their family brewery the best in Japan ? even though, as a woman, she is forbidden to enter the brewing rooms lest her unauspicious presence sour the brew. But as we follow Rie's story, we gradually become aware what she does to herself is more tragic than what others do to her. More depth and complexity emerge from this novel than its easy-to-follow story would suggest
