Green Apple's passion for books is revealed in our videos, from our ten-part Book vs. Kindle series to our Book of the Month "ads." Here is our August Book of the Month video. Or visit our YouTube channel.
Book of the Month
Each month, we present a new book that we enthusiastically recommend. Really enthusiastically recommend. This month's choice is again endorsed by multiple Green Applers. Buy it now and thank us later. Here's the "shelf-talker", courtesy of Sparks and AeRi:
Following on the heels of Remainder (2007), a book Zadie Smith called "one of the greatest English novels of the last ten years," comes Tom McCarthy's dazzlingly complex and riveting novel, C. Set at the turn of the 20th century, C - a letter signifying a number of things, from communications to coincidence to cocaine, from ciphers to Cairo to crackpots - tells the story of Serge Carrefax (another contributing "C") as he navigates through the onset of modernity, moving from an idyllic childhood in the British countryside to a series of tumultuous and formative events (he's an airman in WW1, a POW, a debaucherous student in post-war London, a spy in Egypt...). As much an adventure story as a novel of ideas, C is unlike anything you will read this year -- which is why we're so excited to select it as our "Book of the Month."
GOAT: Greatest of All Time -- a Tribute to Muhammad Ali
Finally, TASCHEN's collectible tribute to Muhammad Ali is going to be available for only $150.00. The book will be released in late August, but we're accepting presale orders leading up to its publication. Don't miss your chance to pick up this gorgeous commemeration of Ali at a downright steal of a price.
