The Best of the Jersey Shore...
The Boardwalk Bookstore
John Grisham:
John Grisham popped on the scene a few years ago with a string of legal thrillers. His novels have been very popular, and most ofthem have become films. We think these are the three best.
This major bestseller is the story
of an idealistic if greedy young attorney
caught between the FBI and the Mob.
The Firm
A young law student prepares a brief
after the assasination of two Supreme Court Justices.
Someone reads her brief and is willing
to kill to destroy the evidence of an unthinkable crime.
The Pelican Brief
A white criminal lawyer in a small southern town is appointed to a case that gains national attention -defending a black father who was forced to take the law into his own hands after the brutal murder of his ten-year-old daughter.
A Time to Kill
Kurt Vonnegut
Kurt Vonnegut is not for everyone. His eclectic style has made him a classisist of American literature. Once you become a Vonnegut fan, you are hooked on this master of satire and irony.
Cat's Cradle: One of Vonnegut's most highly praised novels. Filled with humor and unforgetable characters, this apocalyptic story tells of Earth's ultimate end, and presents a vision of the future that is both darkly fantastic and funny, as Vonnegut weaves a satirical commentary on modern man.
Galapagos: A small group of apocalypse survivors stranded on the Galapagos Islands are about to become progenitors of a brave new human race. "Vonnegut is a post-modern Mark Twain.....Galapagos is a madcap genealogical adventure" - New York Times Book Review.
Player Piano: Vonnegut's first novel, originally published in 1952. This anti-utopian novel employs the standard science fiction formula of a futeristic world run by machines and of one man's futile rebellion against that world.
Slaughterhouse Five: Billy Pilgrim, a chaplain's assistant during the Second World War, returns home only to be kidnapped by aliens from the planet Tralfamadore, who teach him that time is an eternal present. Slaughterhouse Five may be one of the finest novels of the century. Vonnegut deals with war and its results as few authors have ever had the courage to do.
