The Season Of Open Water
From the critically acclaimed author of Moon Tide
comes a mesmerizing novel of love and violence, family and betrayal. The Season of Open Water
is the passionate, searing story of a young woman coming of age in a New England seacoast town that is swept up in the dangerous trade of rum-running.
It is October 1927. Bridge Weld is nineteen, headstrong and beautiful, working in her grandfather Noel`s boatbuilding shop. When Noel is approached by a local bootlegger to refit a boat for smuggling, he feels in his gut that he should not accept the work, yet he takes the job for the money it offers and for the chance it gives him to build a future for his beloved granddaughter, Bridge, and her brother, Luce. What Noel doesn’t count on is that Luce will be lured into the rum work himself and will try to pull Bridge into it with him. But Bridge has embarked on a different course. Caught up in a passion for Henry, a veteran of World War I, Bridge is propelled beyond the confines of her known world, and ultimately she must choose between the man who loves her and the brother to whom she has been loyal all her life. As Bridge strikes out on her own, Luce`s fierce attachment spirals out of control.
Exquisitely written, haunting in its rendering of place, The Season of Open Water
is a superb novel about a family and the lawlessness of the heart, a love story that explores the often inescapable connections between violence and desire.

The Last True Story I'll Ever Tell
The streets of Baghdad and its inhabitants figure prominently in this soldier`s tale of the 2002 Iraqi invasion and its aftermath. John Crawford, now a civilian, recalls his experiences in a National Guard unit that, day in and day out, patrolled the city and had direct contact with civilians. Crawford tells many stories here--about his fellow soldiers, shop owners, Iraqi men, women and children, and himself: his reserve unit was called up while he was on his honeymoon, and he was pulled in the middle of his last semester of college. Like many National Guard members, he resented the fact that his stay was interminable and open-ended compared to those of the regular troops, and that the living conditions were as bad as in any war. In his street-level, grunt`s-eye view, Crawford conveys a sense of what war is really like, for both sides.

GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka Vol. 6 - Holy Forest (DVD)
Onizuka is a former member of a motorcycle gang who has decided to become a teacher to put his somewhat troubled past behind him and impart what he has learned to the younger generation, and, perhaps just a bit, because of the girls. In these episodes, GTO begins to privately tutor the principal's daughter, which of course invites some rather unsavory accusations. Later, the school nurse finds herself under fire when it becomes known she's using the school infirmary as a contraband shop.
