Fish Anyone?

August 31, 2010 HOT OFF THE PRESSES! Fish Anyone? Our new novel, Fish: A History of One Migration, written by Peter Aleshkovsky and translated by Nina Shevchuk-Murray, has just arrived from the printer. They did a wonderful job and Fish will start shipping tomorrow morning.   Fish is a mesmerizing novel about the life journey of a selfless Russian everywoman. Shortlisted for the prestigious Russian Booker Prize, Fish is an expansive, gripping, often controversial story of the intimate fallout of imperial collapse, from one of modern Russia's most important writers.   If you didn't pre-order a copy, no worries. You can easily zip on over to our webstore and get yourself a copy right now. Plenty of Fish in our freezer! And, if you would like to find out more about the book, and about Peter's work in general, be sure to pop over to his website. A highlight there is an interview between author and translator of Fish.   Other Fiction for Summer If humor and satire is more your flavor for summer (or what's left of it), then our translation of The Little Golden Calf, published last winter, may be what you are looking for. This classic novel is often recommended to Russophiles who are eager to understand what truly makes Russians tick...   Visit the book's page in our webstore for more information and to place your order. Russian Life books is an imprint of Russian Information Services, which has been publishing fine books, maps and magazines on Russia for over 20 years, out of its world headquarters in Montpelier, Vermont.

News & Culture God, the Gospel, and Glenn Beck Russell Moore The news media pronounced Glenn Beck the new leader of America's Christian conservative movement, and a flock of America's Christian conservatives have no problem with that. Ten years ago, I would have thought it was from the pages of an apocalyptic novel about the end-times. But it's not. And it is a scandal. Read the full article here Spiritual Life Why in the World Would God Want to Use Me? James Montgomery Boice It is impossible to understand Abraham's faith without realizing that there was nothing in Abraham that commended him to God. God does not look down from heaven to find a person who has a bit of divine righteousness or a bit of faith. Read the full article here Is the Bible Hazardous to Your Health? Regis Nicoll If Sigmund Freud were alive today he might push for a label affixed to Bibles, something along the lines of, "WARNING: Regular exposure to this book can lead to unhappiness, depression, psychosis, and in some cases, suicide." Read the full article here What Are We Singing: Holy is the Lord Eva Marie Everson Sometimes the whole earth - and its fullness thereof - makes the pronouncement of adulation. But it should never cry out alone. Read the full article here Movies Rob Reiner: Directing Hearts in Motion in Flipped Laura MacCorkle As the proverb says, a man's heart reflects the man. And in Rob Reiner's newest coming-of-age film, Flipped, young hearts in motion not only mirror the feelings of first love but also the character of who someone really is deep down inside. Read the full article here Marmaduke is a Barkin' Good Time for Kids Only Christa Banister Filled with madcap action and a happy ending you'll see coming from a mile away (this ain't Old Yeller, after all), Marmaduke is a movie your kids will probably love, but you'll barely suffer through, thanks to a slew of corny jokes and lame pop culture references. Read the full article here Music House of Heroes Has Some Fun in Suburba Christa Banister When any band delivers an album that fans and critics both love, expectations can't help but run sky high for the inevitable follow-up. And while Suburba doesn't quite surpass last year's breakout release, it's certainly House of Heroes' most fun album, hands down. Read the full article here   FEATURED VIDEOS Hillsong TV T.D.
