"Call me." How could two little words scribbled on a business card drive a normally sane woman to be so…impulsive? It wasn't Harley Golden's style to call a perfect stranger. But here she was, after one brief airport encounter, having phone sex with the obviously unforgettable Gardner Barnes. What next? Letting him fly her off to Texas in his jet? Falling in love with a man who was already married to a ranch? Getting pregnant…? "Alison Kent mesmerizes us with a compelling love story, brimming with scorching sensuality…." —Romantic Times
A post-mortem photographer unearths dark secrets from the past that may hold the key to his future in this “sensual, twisting gothic tale…in the tradition of A.S. Byatt’s Possession, Diane Setterfield’s The Thirteenth Tale, and Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights” (BookPage). All love stories are ghost stories in disguise. “This one happily succeeds at both” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). When famed Byronesque poet Hugh de Bonne is discovered dead in his bath one morning, his cousin Robert Highstead, a post-mortem photographer, is charged with a simple task: transport Hugh’s remains for burial in a chapel. This chapel, a stained-glass folly set on the moors, was built by de Bonne sixteen years earlier to house the remains of his beloved wife and muse, Ada. Since then, the chapel has been locked and abandoned, a pilgrimage site for the rabid fans of de Bonne’s last book, The Lost History of Dreams. However, Ada’s grief-stricken niece refuses to open the glass chapel for Robert unless he agrees to her bargain: before he can lay Hugh to rest, Robert must record Isabelle’s story of Ada and Hugh’s ill-fated marriage over the course of five nights. As the mystery of Ada and Hugh’s relationship unfolds, so too does the secret behind Robert’s own marriage—including that of his fragile wife, Sida, who has not been the same since a tragic accident three years earlier and the origins of his morbid profession that has him seeing things he shouldn’t...things from beyond the grave. Blurring the line between the past and the present, truth and fiction, and ultimately, life and death, The Lost History of Dreams is “a surrealist, haunting tale of suspense where every prediction turns out to be merely a step toward a bigger reveal” (Booklist).
Nineteen-year-old Joy Louie has run away from her home in 1950s America to start a new life in China. Idealistic and unafraid, she believes that Chairman Mao is on the side of the people, despite what her family keeps telling her. How can she trust them, when she has just learned that her parents have lied to her for her whole life, that her mother Pearl is really her aunt and that her real father is a famous artist who has been living in China all these years? Joy arrives in Green Dragon Village, where families live in crowded, windowless huts and eke out a meagre existence from the red soil. And where a handsome young comrade catches her eye... Meanwhile, Pearl returns to China to bring her daughter home - if she can. For Mao has launched his Great Leap Forward, and each passing season brings ever greater hardship to cities and rural communes alike. Joy must rely on her skill as a painter and Pearl must use her contacts from her decadent childhood in 1930s Shanghai to find a way to safety, and a chance of joy for them both. Haunting, passionate and heartbreakingly real, this is the unforgettable new novel by the internationally acclaimed Lisa See.
Life isn't about the tangibles--the things we own or the things we can buy. Instead, life is about moments, experiences, and lessons wrapped in memory. In a world of experiences and not things, imperfections and insecurities can be celebrated as unique. Such revelations occurred to poet Christopher Townsend during times of reflection in his day-to-day life. Breakfast evokes early morning energy and imagery to convey timeless truths and muse about the nature of love. Townsend creates lush settings using vivid imagery and sensual subjects, pulling readers into enjoyment and contemplation. Life, like breakfast, is best served with those who sit and enjoy the stillness of the morning, a muffin complimented by a cup of coffee, and the thoughts of things to come. As a quintessential renaissance man, writing provides Townsend with the platform for reflection, expression, and direction through poetry and prose. Words constructed together, loosely or prescriptively, provide for us the conduit to enjoy life and share in a moment. Breakfast is the beginning of every day and sets the stage for wonder. Breakfast is served! Enjoy.
This beautifully illustrated book includes simple rhymes that teaches children that we are all more similar than different from one another; that everyone is someone.
