Book 2: A Mountain to the North, A Lake to The South, Paths to the West, A River to the East (Hardcover) In this meditative novel, the grandson of Prince Genji wanders a timeless monastery in Kyoto, searching for a mythical garden that has long captivated him. Through poetic prose, the narrative explores themes of beauty, impermanence, and the spiritual journey toward the unobtainable. Book 3: I Am Homeless If This Is Not My Home (Hardback) Lorrie Moore’s latest novel is a meditation on grief, love, and the absurdity of human existence. Finn, a history teacher, embarks on a surreal road trip with an unexpected passenger—his recently deceased ex-lover, Lily. As they travel together, their conversations oscillate between past regrets, existential musings, and dark humor. Interwoven with 19th-century letters that reveal another tragic love story, the novel explores how we hold onto the past, the ways we cope with loss, and the strange, sometimes comical, nature of existence itself.
