(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. 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...

Collaborative Quilting

(Powells: you have a couple of listings for this book which don't all cross-display-- this one has the author's name wrong, Freddy not Fredd, and doesn't list the co-author in the heading for the entry) I am so inspired by this book I can't read it before going to bed or I can't sleep! Each author shares from her creative process in a clear and inviting manner and the quilts themselves are absolutely stunning! Reaching new horizons both in quilting and in creative collaboration.

City of Veils
by
Zoe Ferraris

, September 13, 2010
This is Ferraris' second book and I loved it so much I am getting her first. Veiled City is a surprising combination of cultural insight, love story, human emotion and CSI mystery. Set in Saudi Arabia, with roughly equal numbers of male and female characters, the reflections on, joy from and struggles with the abiding cultural/religious setting are prevalent for both men and women. At different moments, the homicide investigation is aided or thwarted by the cultural structure. And despite the many differences from North American life, I was left at the end with an experience of shared humanity. Very well written.
