It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

History Of Love
by
Nicole Krauss
Tanisha
, September 01, 2011
Krauss is one of the best contemporary authors to present for us the frailty of the human condition. Believable, as though she lived this story herself. Subtle. Beautiful. And sad. A work of fiction that appeals to the intellect. Everyone MUST read this.

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
by
Jonathan Safran Foer
Tanisha
, January 01, 2010
This book is a stunning example of Jonathan Safran Foer's ability to draw on contemporary issues to place them into the context of history. But that is only a backdrop for a book which is really about humanity. His empathy for human nature bleeds through a story about human complexity and fragility, and the many imperfect ways that we deal with loss. It's a truly beautiful book from the heart to the heart.
