    • The Secret Chord, by Geraldine Brooks: The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “The People of the Book” has written a historical novel tracing the life of the biblical King David, as told from the perspective of David’s counselor, his three wives, and his son Solomon. Critics are promising that “The Secret Chord” provides “plenty of melodrama and considerable suspense.”
    • The Witches: Salem, 1692, by Stacy Schiff: The infamous Salem witch trials are examined in this new work from the author of 2011’s“Cleopatra: A Life.”
    • M Train, by Patti Smith: In her 2010 memoir “Just Kids,” musician Patti Smith described her friendship with the artist Robert Mapplethorpe during the 1960s in New York City. In this follow-up, she ruminates about the places she has been and how they’ve affected her.
    • Purity, by Jonathan Franzen: One of the most talked-about books of the season is Franzen’s “Purity,” an epic novel that centers on a young American woman who goes to South America to intern for a WikiLeaks-like organization.
    • Fates and Furies, by Lauren Groff: This well-reviewed novel tells the story of a couple who hide secrets beneath the surface of their seemingly successful marriage. Like other recent books about the complexities of domestic life and relationships, “Fates and Furies” is told from the viewpoint of different characters.

    This autumn, you’ll also see new books from John Irving, David Mitchell, Margaret Atwood, Salman Rushdie, and Isabel Allende. Fans of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium Trilogy can also look forward to “The Girl in the Spider’s Web,” the continuation of Larsson’s series written by Swedish author David Lagercrantz.  Happy reading!

    One Bullet Away

    There’s a storm cloud coiling over America, and most don’t see it yet. But it’s there. Dark. Imminent. Unavoidable. Call it fate, call it consequence—but don’t call it fiction. The divide is real. And it’s calcifying by the hour.
