Paperback. Zustand: Fair. NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE | Winner of the Booker Prize "This is the authentic voice of the Third World, like you've never heard it before." --John Burdett, author of Bangkok 8 The debut novel from the author of Amnesty and Selection Day Aravind Adiga, The White Tiger is a darkly comic and unflinching look at modern India's caste system, poverty, corruption, and ambition. At the heart of the novel is Balram Halwai, the so-called "white tiger"--a rare creature who rises against the odds. Born in a poor Indian village, Balram becomes a driver for a wealthy family in Delhi before reinventing himself as a self-made Bangalore entrepreneur. As he recounts his journey in a letter to the visiting president of China, Balram exposes the contradictions of Indian society, where deep-rooted traditions of servitude and inequality collide with the promise of global business and outsourcing. Wickedly funny, brutally honest, and deeply provocative, The White Tiger reveals the stark realities of class, corruption, and opportunity in contemporary India. Amoral yet strangely endearing, Balram's voice pulls readers into a world both dazzling and unsettling. With its biting social commentary and sharp storytelling, The White Tiger stands as one of the most important works of 21st-century Indian literature--a bold satire and a powerful portrait of ambition and survival.…

Appointed by George W. Bush as the chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in 2006, Sheila Bair witnessed the origins of the financial crisis and in 2008 became--along with Hank Paulson, Ben Bernanke, and Timothy Geithner--one of the key public servants trying to repair the damage to the global economy.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The # 1 New York Times bestseller A Girl Named Zippy was a rare and welcome treat: a memoir of a happy childhood. Spunky, strong-willed, and too smart for her own good, Zippy Jarvis brought readers delight and joy. In She Got Up Off the Couch, Haven Kimmel invites us to rejoin the quirky and hilarious Jarvis family saga, shining the spotlight now on her remarkable mother, Delonda. Zippy is growing up and struggling with both her hair and her distaste for shoes. But this memoir strikes a deeper and more emotional chord, as now Kimmel shines the spotlight on her remarkable mother, Delonda. Courageous and steadfast, Delonda finally realized that she could change her life, and she got up off the funky couch in the den, bought a beat-up flower power VW bug (and then learned to drive it), and went back to school, which gave her the chance to gain both financial independence and, at long last, self-respect. A true pleasure for old fans and new ones alike, She Got Up Off the Couch is a gorgeous encapsulation of an innocent time when a child didn't understand that her mother was depressed or felt stifled, but just noted on her way out the door that Delonda was a fixture in the living room. Kimmel captures the seminal moments of her mother's burgeoning empowerment with the full strength of her distinctive, deft storytelling, and with the overflowing sense of humor that made A Girl Named Zippy a favorite of readers everywhere.…
