A Taxi to Biarritz: A Pianist’s Journey of a Lifetime by Mathieu Ortlieb is a haunting and heartfelt novel that intertwines music, memory, and redemption against the backdrop of World War II. At 83, Yvonne, a reclusive former pianist, embarks on an unexpected road trip from Paris to Biarritz with Jean-Pierre, her disillusioned taxi driver. Haunted by her past, Yvonne confronts the guilt of her unwitting complicity in her father’s Nazi collaboration, whose Biarritz home became a site of torture during the occupation.

Nuff Sed: A Novel of Desert Steve
$16.99
Desert. Sun. Sand. No roads or human settlements within fifty miles in any direction. The perfect place to found a town?
That’s what Steve Ragsdale believed. So he and his wife bundled up their four kids in a 1915 Ford Model T, bought a local prospector’s shack and well, and built a fuel station (50-gallon drum), a repair garage, and café. He advertised “Free food on days the sun doesn’t shine” and “No drunks, no dogs—we prefer dogs.” He was the owner, sheriff, rockhound, writer, naturalist, desert guide, and Santa Claus at Christmas. He became one of the local “desert rats” and earned the moniker “Desert Steve.”
Along the way, he became part of history: the Colorado Aqueduct, the construction of the first State and National highways, the invention of prepaid healthcare, General Patton and World War II, the largest iron mine in the United States, flying saucer sightings, murder, and much more. Based on a true story, this is the tale of a quirky, clever, and bold man who pursued a dream, wrote bad poetry, and found ways to survive when many would have perished or packed it in.

The Occulting Light
$14.99
”McDermott’s writing focuses on the everyday and the mundane then skews it slightly. In some stories there is a vein of dark humour, in others a beautiful poignancy, and in some a surreal quality, all mined from the small things that pass most of us by. His unique observations make each story a journey into a world at once familiar yet also strange, intriguing and arresting. His short stories are fever dreams and visions that will linger in your thoughts. This is a collection to relish.” — Shane Dunphy author of Bring Her Home
