THE MIND e Book of Strange New ings, by Michel Faber, tells the science fiction journey of the protagonist, Peter, and his wife Bea. When Peter gets the one-in-a-million opportunity to travel to another planet, called Oasis, and teach his faith as a pastor to their inhabitants, he and Bea correspond in the only way they know how: through letters. Despite what they both detail in their words to each other, everything is not always as it seems. Oxford Exchange, 420 W. Kennedy Blvd., Tampa 813.253.0222 oxfordexchange.com An Italian Wife by Ann Hood is a lusty delight of a novel that uses the interconnected lives of the Rimaldi family to weave a story of Italian immigrants who came to the US in the early part of the 20th Century. Josephine, who would become the matriarch of the family, was told as a young girl that, in America, anything is possible. Hood's novel brings to vivid light the sexuality of the Rimaldi women that includes encounters with priests, ice men and more. All this mating leads to a large family that rises in status, the women leading the way.
