Sumario:This document presents detailed summaries of recent books across genres including historical fiction, memoir, poetry, and history, highlighting their main themes and contributions. Notable works include Anne Charnock’s *Alston Moor*, a historical novel exploring connections between past and present in northern England’s peatlands; Kristi D. Osorio’s *The Sound of Burning*, a memoir recounting her experience with family trauma and true crime; and Julia Harte’s *Americans Without Borders*, which examines American activists facing political persecution due to their foreign engagements. Other titles address Indigenous history in Canada (*The Lost Reserve*), the 1962 Chinese Indian internment (*The Deoliwallahs*), and the history of nuclear weapons (*Frenchman Flat*). The collection offers culturally sensitive insights into personal, political, and historical struggles, suitable for researchers interested in contemporary literary and historical narratives.
