This week's best reviewed books include Chang-Rae Lee's "A Tender Age," Virginia Eubanks' "A Guide to Open Water Lifesaving," and Téa Obreht's "Sunrise." Chang Rae-Lee's work is described as luminous and masterful, with an almost-ending that invites interpretation. Téa Obreht's "Sunrise" is a riveting survival story that explores themes of gender, taboo love, and our desecration of the wild.
Richard Russo's "Under the Falls" is a dark and brooding novel that is cinematically lush and emotionally potent, a shrewd treatise on the perils of reunion and remorse. Claire Carusillo's "The Responsible Party" is an extraordinary tale that is terrifically comic and a masterful blend of high and low diction.
