Whereabouts
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A marvelous new novel from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Lowland and Interpreter of Maladies about a woman questioning her place in the world, wavering between stasis and movement, between the need to belong and the refusal to form lasting ties. "Another masterstroke in a career already filled with them." -O, the Oprah Magazine Exuberance and dread, attachment and estrangement: in this novel, Jhumpa Lahiri stretches her themes to the limit. In the arc of one year, an unnamed narrator in an unnamed city, in the middle of her life's journey, realizes that she's lost her way. The city she calls home acts as a companion and interlocutor: traversing the streets around her house, and in parks, piazzas, museums, stores, and coffee bars, she feels less alone. We follow her to the pool she frequents, and to the train station that leads to her mother, who is mired in her own solitude after her husband's untimely death. Among those who appear on this woman's path are colleagues with whom she feels ill at ease, casual acquaintances, and "him," a shadow who both consoles and unsettles her. Until one day at the sea, both overwhelmed and replenished by the sun's vital heat, her perspective will abruptly change. This is the first novel Lahiri has written in Italian and translated into English. The reader will find the qualities that make Lahiri's work so beloved: deep intelligence and feeling, richly textured physical and emotional landscapes, and a poetics of dislocation. But Whereabouts, brimming with the impulse to cross barriers, also signals a bold shift of style and sensibility. By grafting herself onto a new literary language, Lahiri has pushed herself to a new level of artistic achievement.- Shop: buecher

Dova Grove
Hailed as one of the most "reviving and catchy" upcoming bands in the South. Recently, the band participated in the early segments of the new FOX TV show 'Next Great American Band.' Conceived in 2005, their sound has continued to draw music enthusiasts to DG events all around the South. Originally formed as a quiet project, crowd whispers of the Memphis-based band's live performances spread with astonishing enthusiasm. Members hail from Tennessee, Mississippi, and Iowa but the collision of "North meets South" did not result in civil war. Rather, a true and familiar sound emerged from the different regional influences, with a strong jam quality. Dova Grove's unique flavor of 'Memphis Rock & Jam' has continued to spread and excite music-lovers across the region. It's understandable why the various venues and festivals continue to book the band with great enthusiasm. Stemming from their recent touring, DG has earned the esteem of the music industry, noted by opportunities to perform with fantastic touring acts. They have shared the stage with acts such as Tea Leaf Green, Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk, Eric McFadden Trio, Saving Abel, Burnside Exploration, The Nadas, Heartless Bastards, Kenny Brown, Tishamingo, and others... DG frequents both premier and underground venues in Memphis and the United States.
