  3. Valerie Sayers on Joe DiMaggio and "The Powers"

    In &quot;The Powers," Valerie Sayers' long-awaited sixth novel &mdash; her first since "Brain Fever" (1996) &mdash; the great Yankees slugger Joe DiMaggio is embarking on his historic hitting streak of 1941, riveting Americans as much as or more than the news from Europe, where World War II is gathering its terrible momentum. Like many athletes, Sayers' DiMaggio is deeply superstitious, so much so that he believes he can foresee the future &mdash; his own and that of America itself, including the attack on Pearl Harbor.

  6. Crime writer Connelly to talk at Museum of Art

    Michael Connelly's novels about LAPD detective Harry Bosch have made him one of the top contemporary mystery writers, and a staple of the best-sellers list. More than 20 years after Connelly's 1992 award-wining debut &quot;The Black Echo," he is still discovering new layers to this now iconic character. His plots, too, are increasingly complex and believable, as he showed in his latest novel, "The Black Box." Connelly has written 25 novels, 19 of them about Bosch.
