After the Victorians
The Decline of Britain in the World
A. N. Wilson
Picador

It is a page turner, lambent with fascination . . . One of the best things about the book is the use Wilson makes of the period's reflection in its fecund literature. And, indeed, his masterly piece of history is a work of literature too."—

The Boy
A Holocaust Story
Dan Porat
Hill and Wang
“A gripping, harrowing Holocaust story, based mostly on facts, but embroidered with probabilities and imaginative suppositions derived from the characters and events involved . . . Mr. Porat has given the world a far greater insight into the hellish universe surrounding the photograph, but, as he suggests, he has not ultimately penetrated its essential mystery. And that mystery may be one reason the photograph will endure.”—
