Purple martins are communal birds that like being near humans. They are the largest member of the swallow family. The male is black all over, but in certain light, the feathers have a dark purple sheen. The female is slightly smaller, black on the back with a light gray breast. Their pleasant chatter and graceful flight make them interesting neighbors. They also feed exclusively on flying insects, including flies, moths, beetles, mosquitoes, termites, and midges.

From Rebecca F. Kuang, Oxford Marshall Scholar, translator, and #1 New York  Times bestselling author, comes Babel, an incredible feat of writing and an absolute wonder of a novel. A historical fantasy with a dash of magic and dark academia, this epic story grapples with student revolutions, colonial resistance, and the use of language and translation as the dominating tool of the British Empire.
