The Last Ole Southern Sheriff
As I stood looking eye-to-eye with death and the gun the killer was holding on me, I turned my back expecting to be killed in the middle of the road. I asked God to show me a way out of this dark place, trying to save a young woman's life. As I started toward the sheriff's car, suddenly, I heard a loud gunshot. I felt death all around me. As I fell to the middle of the road, facedown, I thought, Oh, God, is this my day? Is this the way I die? No one except a law enforcement officer can really understand the sacrifices that we make carrying the weight of the badge. A law enforcement officer leaves his family to serve the public and to prevent any more death threats to him and his family. It gets to be a lonely world, but we took an oath to protect and serve the people. Never let us forget that. I give thanks to God for bringing me home all those years.
The Dog
***A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK*** ***LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2014*** ***PWs Best of the Year 2014*** The author of the best-selling and award-winning Netherland now gives us his eagerly awaited, stunningly different new novel: a tale of alienation and heartbreak in Dubai. Distraught by a breakup with his long-term girlfriend, our unnamed hero leaves New York to take an unusual job in a strange desert metropolis. In Dubai at the height of its self-invention as a futuristic Shangri-la, he struggles with his new position as the “family officer” of the capricious and very rich Batros family. And he struggles, even more helplessly, with the “doghouse,” a seemingly inescapable condition of culpability in which he feels himself constantly trapped—even if he’s just going to the bathroom, or reading e-mail, or scuba diving. A comic and philosophically profound exploration of what has become of humankind’s moral progress, The Dog is told with Joseph O’Neill’s hallmark eloquence, empathy, and storytelling mastery. It is a brilliantly original, achingly funny fable for our globalized times.
