Devastated by his wife’s betrayal of him with one of her students, an Oxbridge academic secures a stint as a lecturer at an Indian university in an attempt to put distance between himself and the source of his emotional distress. Unfortunately, the young Indian housekeeper he employs to look after his home and take care of him picks up on his distress. The young woman is plain looking, but with a body that would not be out of place on Venus. She may have demons of her own but is more than willing to embrace them, especially if it means demoting her older and smugly superior employer into the living embodiment of her fantasies regarding sexual domination and domestic control. The man, Vernon Lampeter, who left the UK with his emotional tail between his legs will, when he finally returns, find that the legs he is now between belong to another. And HE is on his knees before them! A novel of physical and psychological female domination.
This diary records the details, emotional and salacious, of two periods in the life of an academic. In 1989 his wife of twenty years was killed instantly while driving to work. Six months later, he fell into a romantic relationship with a former student as he tried to cope with the loss of his wife. He kept a diary in which he recorded his emotional conflicts when he faced the hard choice of disconnecting from his first love while rearing his teenage daughter as a single parent and rediscovering romance with five different women during the course of the next three years. Its all there. The overwhelming sense of loss, the uncertainty of single parenthood, his reeducation in sex and romance after nearly twenty years of marriage. Its a daily account of a middle-aged mans struggles as he forged his way into an entirely new personal life in a coming-of-age story that usually occurs when men are twenty or thirty years younger. Its a tale of belated innocence lost and of uncertainty and surprise about the nature of romance and sex, a generation after having first fallen in love. You can sense the conflict as he weighs his new experiences and the possibilities that his newfound relationships hold against his cherished memories. You can sense his amazement as he relearns what younger women expect from him in terms of sex and romance. The diary is put away once his life returns to an even keel, and he finally remarries. His second wife is a former student and a generation younger. But entries into the diary are reinitiated about fifteen years into the marriage and are occasioned by his troubled transition from academia to retirement. Once again he is conflicted with a change in his identity, and the symptoms of depression take a temporary toll on his marriage. His recorded experiences constitute a frank and poignant memoir even though they account for only a handful of years in his life, and its likely that adults of all ages will find something within his journal with which they can identify. The L.A. Journal should enjoy broad market appeal, since it is teeming with tragedy, emotional conflict, romance, sex, depression, the relationship between a widower dad and his adolescent daughter, rediscovery of self, and assimilation of a new life at midlife. And all of it is true with events recorded as they occurred.

“Fascinating. Ellison has the art of page-turning down flat, and readers will be swept up by both the terror—and the romance.” —Booklist, Starred Review “This book casts a spell over its readers.”—SLJ, Starred Review “An engaging mystery starring a teen girl with obsessive-compulsive disorder. A pleasing mix of realism, tension, intrigue and romance.” —Kirkus Reviews “ . . . a strong, twisty thriller of a debut . . . [with] a complex and memorable heroine.”—Publishers Weekly “Lo’s relationship with the mysterious street boy who calls himself Flynt, layered on top of her almost supernatural loneliness and helpless compulsions, gives the novel an otherworldly quality.”—VOYA “A debut worth picking up. Stark and realistic.”—RTBooks Penelope (Lo) Marin has always loved to collect beautiful things. Her dad's consulting job means she's grown up moving from one rundown city to the next, and she's learned to cope by collecting (sometimes even stealing) quirky trinkets and souvenirs in each new place--possessions that allow her to feel at least some semblance of home. But in the year since her brother Oren's death, Lo's hoarding has blossomed into a full-blown, potentially dangerous obsession. She discovers a beautiful, antique butterfly pendant during a routine scour at a weekend flea market, and recognizes it as having been stolen from the home of a recently murdered girl known only as "Sapphire"--a girl just a few years older than Lo. As usual when Lo begins to obsess over something, she can't get the murder out of her mind. As she attempts to piece together the mysterious "butterfly clues," with the unlikely help of a street artist named Flynt, Lo quickly finds herself caught up in a seedy, violent underworld much closer to home than she ever imagined--a world, she'll ultimately discover, that could hold the key to her brother's tragic death.
