"Tigers in Red Weather" is the debut novel written by Herman Melville's triple-great-granddaughter. Released at the beginning of this month, it covers two decades in the lives of two cousins as they come to maturity at the end of World War II and enter the complex decades of the 50's and 60's. The spot-on characterizations guide the reader through a complex story of love and longing awash in alcohol and the ocean on Martha's Vineyard. "Tigers in Red Weather" was released on July 7 and is published by Little, Brown and Company.
You'll have to wait until July 31 to pick up your copy of "The Light Between Oceans" by M. L. Stedman (Simon & Schuster).
This outstanding debut takes the reader to Australia and focuses on a World War II veteran and his wife. Their lives as lighthouse keepers on remote Janus Rock are changed forever when Isabel and Tom discover, washed up on their shore, a lifeboat containing a dead body and a live infant. Irrevocable decisions force these fine people into introspection, regret, re-evaluation and redemption.
