This title is the winner of the inaugural French Orange Prize in 2009 & the Prix Renaudot's livre de poche prize. During a school trip to Buchenwald concentration camp, a young French teacher comes across a photograph of a man whose resemblance to his own father, Adrien, is uncanny. However, the man has a different name & died in 1942. Returning to France, he finds that the memory of the photograph refuses to leave him. He decides to embark on a search for its subject, which takes him to the Buchenwald archives, to the heart of the Nazi machine, but more disturbingly, draws him into the dark heart of his own family. Eventually, he is brought face-to-face with his own capacity for violence. A subtle, moving book, The Origins of Violence shows the limitless ways in which humans inflict harm on each other, & how individual people, not societies, are the perpetrators. ...

Why remember Eliza Fay nearly two centuries after her death? Her origins are obscure; she was not beautiful, rich, or outlandishly accomplished. Yet the letters recounting her 1779 voyage from England to India captivated E. M. Forster, who discovered them while in India & in 1925 persuaded Virginia & Leonard Woolf to publish them in Engl&. The letters have been delighting readers ever since with their truth-is-stranger than- fiction twists & turns, their earthy humor, & their depiction of an indomitable, unstoppable woman. These days you can hop on a plane in England & be in India the next morning, but when the intrepid Mrs. Fay departed from Dover more than two hundred years ago, it was to embark on a grueling twelve-month journey through much of Europe, up the Nile, overland through the deserts of Egypt, & finally across the sea to India. Along the way she & her fellow travelers encountered wars, territorial disputes, brigands, & even imprisonment. Fay was a contemporary of Jane Austen, but her adventures are worthy of a Daniel Defoe heroine. Her letters-unfiltered, forthright, & often hilarious-bring the perils & excitements of an earlier age to life. ...
