Not all of them will rise to the level of the advertisement, but its an abundant crop.Home After Dark by David Small (Liveright, Sept. 11 ) In 2009, Small published a celebrated graphic memoir (回忆录) called Stitches. Now the Caldecott Medal winner is back with a graphic novel about a motherless 13-year-old boy brought up in an unhappy home in California. This is a tale told in few words and many striking images. On Sept. 11 at 3 p.m., Small will be at Amazonbooks at Union Market. More information at www.amazon.com/graph-tale.Waiting for Eden by Elliot Ackerman (Knopf, Sept. 25) This brief novel is related by a dead soldier who is watching over a horribly burned partner in a Texas hospital. That sounds embarrassingly emotional, but Ackerman, who served in a Navy in Iraq and Afghanistan, is one of the best soldier-writers of his generation.

She never actually asked to go. It was all my idea to sign her up(报名). Shes nearly 12, and I notice that Im with my child nearly 24 hours a day. Sally has become increasingly dependent on my presence. What frightens me most is that she has become a “minime”. She pursues my hobbies, my dreams and my opinions. And thats why I pulled her to the summer camp：a nearby wilderness camp called Hawk Circle.After we ate, we drove to Hawk Circle. Once there, we got a tour of the grounds and were introduced to Sallys fellow campers. Sally stood by the group of children, holding my hand, horror in her eyes, trying to work up the courage to join in a game of soccer.“I need you for a few more minutes,”she told me, holding my hand tightly.I pulled away and walked up to one of the camp workers. “Excuse me,”I said loudly, “Id like to introduce my daughter to you. Maybe you could help her meet a few of these kids.”He came over to talk to Sally, and I kissed on her cheek and then my husband and I disappeared before Sally realized we were gone.It was not until I drove home that I finally felt it. A piece of my soul had been taken from my body. I began to shake. Tears streamed down my face. It took every bit of my strength to keep driving forward.When we arrived home, I calmed down and reminded myself why I chose this path. I want Sally to have a chance to find herself out of my shadow. I dont want to see only myself in my child. I want to learn who she is. After 12 years of constantly being together, I want to finally meet my daughter for the first time.4.
