Look at the Birdie
Written by Kurt Vonnegut

This collection of fourteen previously unpublished short stories were written just as Kurt Vonnegut was starting to find his comic voice. In this series of perfectly rendered vignettes, Vonnegut paints a warm, wise, and funny portrait of life in post—World War II America–a world where squabbling couples, high school geniuses, misfit office workers, and small-town lotharios struggle to adapt to changing technology, moral ambiguity, and unprecedented affluence.

The Professional
Written by Robert B. Parker
Read by Joe Mantegna

A knock on Spenser's office door can mean only one thing: a new case. With its eloquently spare prose and some of the best supporting characters to grace the printed page, The Professional is further proof that "[t]here's hardly an author in the crime novel business like Parker" (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette).

Also available as an unabridged audiobook download.

Indignation
Written by Philip Roth

Indignation, Philip Roth's twenty-ninth book, is a startling departure from the haunted narratives of old age and experience in Roth’s recent books and a powerful exploration of a remarkable moment in American history.
