Bookreporter.com - NEW AND NOTABLE IN PAPERBACK

Among the notable fiction titles featured in October's New in Paperback roundup are ELIZABETH COSTELLO by J. M. Coetzee, who was the recipient of the 2003 Nobel Prize in Literature; the first volume of Neal Stephenson's bestselling series "The Baroque Cycle"; and William Landay's MISSION FLATS, one of our favorite debut suspense/thrillers in 2003. Our nonfiction selections include TREASON, in which Ann Coulter vehemently argues against the policies of the liberal party in the United States, and SO MANY BOOKS, SO LITTLE TIME, which focuses on Sara Nelson's decision to read one book each week for an entire year.
