5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Capturing the zeitgeist of a Communist Romania By Matko Vladanovic There used to be a country called Romania. Oh, it still exists today though it's somewhat different than it was twenty, thirty or more years ago. Romania of today has one of the more interesting filmmaking movement, is a decent country which struggles with her past (like many of countries do on a daily basis), and - in general - is a rather fine place to live in. Not much different than rest of the (Eastern) Europe. Twenty, thirty or more years ago it was a different place. Different world. Different tragedy. "The Black Envelope" is a story from that world, world which many of us never really experienced (and never quite believed in tales of horror our parents used to tell). Norman Manea left his country twice. Though `left' might be a poor choice of word here. First time, he "left" as a deportee when pro-Nazi regime of Ion Antonescu moved many east-Romanian Jews and Romas into a concentration camp in Ukraine. He survived the experience, returned home with surviving members of his family, entered high-school, finished college and lived his life happily ever after. Except for this latter part. Manea started writing (what a silly thing to do) sometime in '69, in a magazine that soon got banned by the Authorities. He wrote this and that, always on the lookout, until he finally made a bad choice (relatively speaking of course) and wrote "The black envelope" which didn't sit well with the Forces that Be. One didn't mess with these Forces if one wanted to be around when his grandkids grow up. It was 1986. and Manea had to leave the country. It was one of those "or else" situations and luckily, doors were open to him. He received scholarship from a West-German institution, from where he left to US taking on the mantle of a dissident writer, never to return, never to put this mantle down. He wrote many a book in upcoming years but "The Black Envelope" somehow remained his cornerstone. What's it all about? Well...it's really difficult to tell in a few words. It's not about that is important, rather - it's how it's told that really does the trick. "The Black Envelope" is not about an exact experience (sure, there is a story here - one in which former professor made hotel clerk is looking for answers about what happened to his father 40 years ago - but main focus of this novel lies elsewhere) it's more about re-living one's past and one's present by the means of words. "The Black Envelope" summarizes 40 years of Romanian past and is doing just that using the language of fear; allegoric, evasive language which constituted Romanian identities back then (using a different language, one that we're accustomed to today, meant prosecution, disappearance and death). This may prove difficult for a general reader because it relies heavily upon being able to move around a thick layer of allusions, satirical jabs, provocations and murky notions of day-to-day events in Communist Romania. If you read this today, without any experience whatsoever of life under totalitarian regimes, you'll definitely wonder what was all the fuss about back then. Why this was even banned. There is an answer in the book though you'll have to work for it. If you read this book careful enough you should be able to spot the predominant topics of fear and desperation which wasn't just a figment of one person's imagination or paranoia - it was a state affair; a zeitgeist. In "The Black Envelope" Manea managed to capture four decades of dread and anxiety present in one country and its inhabitants. He did so in a unique voice which, quite deservedly, placed him in a pantheon of contemporary writers of note. You should hear what he has to say.

Fonseca I found this book baffling in parts so I did what I never do which is to look at other reviews to see if anyone else had figured it out. Much of the plot, such as it is, is about an elderly man who lives alone and seems to be searching for documents related to the political turmoil that ruined his father’s career. However, he himself was run out of a job as a professor and now works as a hotel receptionist in this eastern European communist environment. The novel is set in Romania and translated from Romania.Other reviews I have read characterize the book as "a slog, " a struggle, obscure, vague, confusing, baffling and exasperating. Some call it brilliant and exquisite.So why slog through it?To me its main value is that it is almost a primer or a manual of what life was like during the days of the repression of personal freedom under communism in Eastern Europe. As if communist repression were not enough, the population in Romania also suffered from the whims of the dictatorship of Nicolae Ceausescu from 1967 to 1989. He was tyrannical even by Stalinist standards. (He and his wife were shot by firing squad in 1989 after a one-hour trial.) The people also suffered under an overwhelming and insidious bureaucracy that permeated their lives. So here’s that primer:The office environment. At work there is constant gossip and rumors about the Party that you have to follow closely for “hints” of what’s going on. Favoritism is shown to Party members. Political leaders who used to be drawn from “workers” are now members of the intellectual class. Your manager calls you at home on your day off to chit-chat. It can only be one of two things -- a joke or a warning? The best thing you can have is a friend at a high level; the worst thing is an enemy at high level.The doublespeak of the bureaucrats is Orwellian. Surprisingly, if you are a brave soul and want to risk all, you can act weird, irritate people, and say politically dangerous things because your co-workers will assume you must have higher-up connections or you wouldn’t dare act that way. So, our professor openly talks of his brother who defected to Argentina. Your day is marked by petty suspicion, petty backbiting, petty deception, petty acts of treachery committed by petty, shriveled, crushed souls. And boredom. Don’t forget the boredom.Suspicion. It’s an age of suspicion. Everyone is subject to blackmail from the old days of WW II. There are informers and spies. Even the spies assume they are being spied on. Everyone has a file so everyone lives with constant anxiety waiting for the bureaucrats to get around to looking into their file and their “past.” Many people have things to hide from WW II. We’re not told what these are. So people have changed their appearance and often their names. Throughout the book there are reflections on Hitler and Mussolini and snippets of the history of the Germans taking over the country.Paranoia. It’s an inept bureaucracy, so it might take a couple of years, but at some point you know you will lose your job or get thrown out of college. But the bureaucracy is also inept enough to let you get a new job or to reenroll – for a while anyway. The professor is paranoid, constantly looking in shop windows, using the reflection to see if he’s being followed. He walks out of his way and doubles back to throw people off his track. He changes buses and trains for no reason.More suspicion: People don’t answer their doorbells or their telephones. The professor meets a woman. He knows she searches his wallet while he sleeps. He searches her apartment while she sleeps. He finds nothing suspicious. This makes him even more suspicious. At times he wonders if he should even be having the thoughts he does because technology may have advanced to the point where “they” are reading your thoughts like radio waves.It is forbidden to talk to foreigners on the street. Talking frankly generate suspicion, so only innocuous conversation occurs. You never talk in a taxicab. Even when an earthquake happens there is no radio news because the dictatorship and the bureaucracy take days to figure out what they should tell people.Shortages and lines. The shortage of coffee and other staples is constant. Many stores are closed for “stock taking” – maybe for weeks. Every store that happens to be open has a line. People give directions by saying “go to where the line starts for such and such a store.” You join a line just for the heck of it, not even knowing what’s in stock. The lines are self-policing; a semi-riot starts when a clerk attempts to give a friend of hers more than the allowed ration of potatoes. Trains don’t come. You wait while three buses crammed full of people pass you by. Two hours later a parade of empty buses streams by. A woman tutors foreign college students for free because the gifts they give her – liquor, American cigarettes, coffee -- are more valuable than cash. The main character always carries matches with him even though he doesn’t smoke because you never know when you need them for power outages, missing light bulbs and dark corridors.The general public is always asking people who have been to other countries if people are happy there. Can they possibly be as miserable as us? “They” is in constant use. Lovers use the refrain “they can’t take this away from us.” Boredom, gloom and suspicion prevail. Patients in the clinic are obsessed with getting their medical codes changed in the byzantine health care system because a re-categorization might increase their medical benefits or retirement disability benefits. People accept the principle of guilt by association. If your uncle gets in trouble with the authorities, you will too; after all he’s YOUR uncle. This is not considered an injustice.Frightening stuff.

Ebook PDF Well in Time, by Suzan Still

“WELL IN TIME reminded this reviewer of the magical realism novels of great writers like Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa and Isabella Allende, weaving the sacred and the profane; past, present and future; love and hate, the beauty and the ugly within and without nature and so much more. Suzan Still is more than a novelist; she’s a literary giant with a gift for beautiful prose, brilliant plotting and revealing characterization that enhances every page of this phenomenally constructed novel. Kudos to you, Suzan Still – and please, please, please keep writing!” —Crystal Book Reviews Through a series of telescoping stories, Well in Time plunges back from the present day through medieval Europe to ancient Egypt in quest of the origins of an object of magical power. Novelist Calypso Searcy is gifted an ancient golden locket that confers the ability to know the future through dreams. It opens intriguing vistas into history, but while writing her account of the locket’s past, disaster strikes in the present. Rancho Cielo, the ranch she and her lover Javier Carteña have created with their own hands in Mexico’s Copper Canyon, comes under attack by a Mexican drug cartel. Leaving Javier to defend the ranch with his army of hands, Calypso embarks with her friend Hill on a wild escape that takes them through remote and treacherous territory and delivers them into the hands of a mysterious group, the Ghosts, who may be more dangerous than the cartel from which they are fleeing. As the stories of the locket and of Calypso’s escape weave together, parallels appear that cause her to question who she really is, and what the real meaning of her life might be. The sequel to the acclaimed novel FIESTA OF SMOKE, WELL IN TIME is based in actual historical events and in the wisdom of timeless mysteries known as the Perennial Philosophy. It is a singular reading experience.

Well in Time, by Suzan Still

Review PRAISE FOR SUZAN STILL'S FIESTA OF SMOKE:“Suzan Still’s Fiesta of Smoke is an extraordinary book, encompassing a vast time frame yet bringing the possibility of a contemporary Mexican revolution to vivid life through its beautifully tuned, disparate voices. With a tonality that at times echoes the quiet grace of Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s Love in the Time of Cholera, matched by passages that have the psychotic edginess of Breaking Bad, Fiesta of Smoke is a book that will both compel and seduce you to read it to its haunting conclusion.”—Alexander Stuart, author of The War Zone and Life On Mars“As with the brush of a muralist, Suzan Still has captured fifty years of the history of Mexico in vivid color. This passionate, nonlinear novel explores the lives of three very different people involved in decades of political upheaval, and sounds the depth of injustices done for centuries there. Gripping in its detail, and daring in its reach, Fiesta of Smoke is a moving portrayal of the disparate cultures and complexity of a turbulent, beautiful country.”—M. E. Hirsh, author of Kabul and Dreaming Back

About the Author Suzan Still lives in the foothills of Sierra Nevada mountains with her husband and an assortment of rescued fur children. She is the author of a debut novel, COMMUNE OF WOMEN.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Along with their good friend, Walter Hill By Louise Jolly WELL IN TIME is the sequel to Suzan's second novel 'Fiesta of Smoke' but most definitely can be read as a stand-alone.Javier Cartena and Calypso Searcy return for another exciting, sit-at-the-edge-of-your-seat adventure! An ancient gold locket, which was a gift, has the ability to tell the future; sometimes through a whispered word, sometimes during a dream. Calypso also has the ability to wander through different worlds; the present and a world where she meets a group known as 'The Ghosts'. They are a very dark, scary, mysterious group who mean business.While searching the locket's past, Calypso and Javier's ranch in Mexico is attacked by a certain drug cartel. Along with their good friend, Walter Hill, Calypso manages to escape unseen. Thus begins her journey through another world where everything she ever knew about herself is tested to the nth degree - her physical strength, her endurance, her emotional and spiritual strengths. WELL IN TIME has such a stong mystical aspect to it that Calypso carefully straddles the line that divides worlds and tests her ability to stand in either.My favourite part of the book is when Calypso takes us through the caves and into the tunnels. You won't believe what she goes through and will want to keep reading and reading. Some of the tunnels are so constricting we don't know whether she is going to get through or have to turn back again and again to locate an alternate route. Ms. Still's writing is so descriptive and vivid that you'll feel like you literally can't breathe as you transverse the tunnels with Calypso. You almost have to the put the book down to catch your breath and psyche yourself up that you can do this, never mind Calypso! The writing is just phenomenal.Through their struggles both Calypso and Javier learn that there is more to life than they both thought and that you don't always have to be together to accomplish your goals. You can change, you can be alone and be okay with that, and you can force yourself to be a more positive influence in this world and on the people around you.Suzan Still has outdone herself with WELL IN TIME. She is a literary queen with the ability to pen the most beautiful prose, creating characters, and plotting her story to get the most bang for the buck.I whole-heartedly believe WELL IN TIME is going to be a huge success and I wish Ms. Still great success. Thank you for providing me with the best two days of reading I've done in quite some time.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Kudos, Suzan Still!!! By susanne nishino “You have received an incalculable blessing today, Blanche de Muret. And an incalculable burden. From this day forward you are an emissary of the Great Mother. She has spoken” (p.324).Suzan Still has once again created a masterpiece in her third novel, Well In Time, with all the suspense and symbolism of a Dan Brown in The Da Vinci Code and all the wisdom and knowledge of a Riane Eisler in The Chalice and the Blade: Our History, Our Future. How does one go about creating a review of this manuscript, the Great Mother’s labor of love, that can even begin to do it justice? Whether known as Isis, Astarte, Sa Tahuti, Allia, Blanche, Atl, Calypso, Suzan Still, or by any other name, the Great Mother has spoken throughout the rivers of time. Whether persevering in the horrors of scaling cliffs behind leading only to drug cartel devastation, surviving the near suffocation of moving through the secret heart depths of the Great Mother’s life and death birth canal, or facing the ghosts of Jesuit CIA death-squad priests ahead, Calypso once again brings the message of hope and redemption for all mankind in the Great Mother’s cycle of life, death, birth, renewal, repentance, and redemption. In the simple words spoken to a sinner, “Mijo, my son,” the legacy of the message of redemption and hope in the 1000s-year-old image of Isis/Mary with Horus/Jesus on her lap lives on. Through Suzan Still the Great Mother has spoken “well in time” for rebirth, redemption, and renewal in a world gone mad in violence and chaos. “No one in the twenty-first century is innocent, Miss Searcy. People just have varying degrees of awareness of their guilt” (p. 283). Anyone reading Suzan Still’s manuscript cannot help but come away with a higher knowledge of that guilt and the awareness of how to repent and redeem it. I highly recommend Suzan Still’s Well In Time to all seeking that awareness as an “emissary of the Great Mother,” and to all who are not yet knowing enough to be aware.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Sacred Stories Within Stories - Love Beyond Imagination! By Viviane Crystal Javier Cartena and Calypso Searcy have returned in this sequel to Feast of Smoke and are again deliberately and inadvertently spun into a cycle of violence and divine intervention that keeps spinning and spinning and spinning. Javier and Calypso, as well as their good friend Hill who is an investigative journalist, are as deeply in love as ever. But they are not to have any piece due to the prevailing drug cartels thriving in Mexico, one of whom will attack Javier’s ranch. Javier will stay behind to defend his home and Calypso is about to begin a journey that involves crawling through tube-like caves barely fitting any human being.In the process of this fantastic journey, stories within stories will be told, like a Russian Matryoshka nesting doll, revealing layers and layers of mystery, myth, legend, all emanating the sacred. The tales involve communities worshiping the Great Mother, Isis, also known as Mary in Christian circles. They involve the marriage of Egyptian gods and goddesses and the enmity arising in their children, the efforts of some to squelch the worship of these divine beings in medieval Europe, and so much more. The journey also involves Calypso being saved and threatened by a group known as “The Ghosts,” criminals who are reformed but who use a dangerous drug to get information from those who would eliminate them. All of these stories and events will culminate with a gift to Calypso that is approximately 4,000 years old, a gift bequeathed by the descendant of the Great Mother herself, a piece of jewelry that only a woman can wear and which gifts the wearer with dreams of the future or occurrences in the present in different places.Well in Time reminded this reviewer of the magical realism novels of great writers like Gabriela Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa and Isabella Allende, weaving the sacred and the profane; past, present and future; love and hate, the beauty and the ugly within and without nature and so much more. Suzan Still is more than a novelist; she’s a literary giant with a gift for beautiful prose, brilliant plotting and revealing characterization that enhances every page of this phenomenally constructed novel. Kudos to you, Suzan Still – and please, please, please keep writing!

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Meli's Discoveries By carole rosenthal MELI’S DISCOVERIESMeli’s Way is a delightful novel featuring a clear-thinking fourteen-year who persuades her mother to allow her to change schools. Meli’s former private school shapes students towards a conventional expectations and values, but when Meli meets Gray, a self-styled “dancer” who attends the alternative public high school Ciudad City School of the Future, Meli realizes that she too may have an unscripted identity that might be uncovered and developed in a less scripted school. A new set of sharply drawn friends and teachers at the new school—including Tim, the sweet male teacher who becomes the sensible and unrequited object of Meli’s burgeoning romantic interests—raise moral and personal questions for the curious and observant Meli as she sleuths down answers. In the course of this, Meli discovers her own values and—through an accident of classroom study and perspicacious follow-up—her mother’s surprising hidden history. This deeply satisfying book, written in lucid and entertaining prose, is suitable to both adult and young adult readers.

If it's not in the stack, put it there. This is one of the best young adult novels I've read in a long time, one that would be an especially good choice for gifted high-school students (because of the issues the plot raises, like having intellectual interests that others don't share). The story is rich in humor, realism, and drama; and the terrorist attack that is the climax of the plot is convincing and sad in its resonance with the aftermath of the attack of 9/11.. The main character, Meli, is winning in her prickliness, social awkwardness, and defensiveness. A lot of the fun of this story is in "watching" her ability to let her defenses down and yield to feelings for others grow as she makes friends at the charmingly off-beat Ciudad City School of the Future.

VOLUME 30 OF THE HARVARD CLASSICS SERIES By Steven H Propp Michael Faraday (1791–1867) was an English scientist best known for his contributions to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. Hermann Helmholtz (1821-1894) was a German physician and physicist. William Thomson Kelvin (1824-1907) was an Irish and British mathematical physicist and engineer. Simon Newcomb (1835-1909) was a Canadian-American astronomer and mathematician. Archibald Geikie (1835-1924), was a Scottish geologist and writer.Faraday concludes his lecture on “The Correlation of the Physical Forces” by saying, “I hope that the insight which you have here gained into some of the laws by which the universe is governed, may be the occasion of some among you turning your attention to these subjects; for what study is there more fitted to the mind of man than that of the physical sciences? And what is there more capable of giving him an insight into the actions of those laws, a knowledge of which gives interest to the most trifling phenomenon of nature, and makes the observing student find ‘Tongues in trees, books in running brooks, Sermons in stones, and good in every thing’?” [Shakespeare, As You Like It] (Pg. 88)Helmholtz observes, “It follows thence that the total quantity of all the forces capable of work in the whole universe remains eternal and unchanged throughout all their changes. All change in nature amounts to this, that force can change its form and locality without its quantity being changed. The universe possesses, once for all, a store of force which is not altered by any change of phenomena, can neither be increased nor diminished, and which maintains any change which takes place on it.” (Pg. 219)Kelvin says, “Some people say they cannot understand a million million. Those people cannot understand that twice two makes four. That is the way I put it to people who talk to me about the incomprehensibility of such large numbers. I say finitude is incomprehensible, the infinite in the universe IS comprehensible.” (Pg. 270)Geikie notes, “When first elevated from the sea, the land doubtless presents on the whole a comparatively featureless surface… giving no indicate of the grace into which it will grow under the hand of the sculptor… Patiently and unceasingly has this great earth-sculptor sat at her task since the land first rose above the sea, washing down into the ocean the debris of her labour, to form the materials for the framework of future countries; and there will she remain at work so long as mountains stand, and rain falls, and rivers flow.” (Pg. 357)The entire Harvard Classics series is useful for anyone wanting to read collected editions of original works of philosophy, literature, poetry, science, etc.

Best Ebook PDF Online Special Problems, by Christie Hodgen

"Over the last few years I've started writing a number of stories that, for various reasons, I never finished writing..." So begins Special Problems, the comic tale of Christie Hodges, a writer who can't seem to finish a story. The problem isn't that Hodges has nothing to write about - there's her recent divorce, her paralyzed foot, trouble with her daughter and job - it's that once she starts writing, she can't stop. One problem leads to another, and another. A story that begins with a disastrous Thanksgiving play at her daughter's school swells to hundreds of pages, straining to accommodate the history of every atrocity one set of people has committed against another. Her desk covered with failed drafts, Hodges faces her biggest problem of all: if she doesn't stop trying to say everything, she will end up saying nothing.

Desperate for advice, Hodges turns to her mother, a Project Manager at a software company who speaks almost exclusively in corporate lingo: "I'm putting you on a PIP," my mother said. "I don't know what that means," I said. "You know, a PIP," she said. "A Performance Improvement Plan." "Oh God," I said. "I'm giving you a two-week deadline," she said. "I want a finished story on my desk two weeks from today. That's the long and the short of your PIP." All I could think of was the Dickens character. "Sounds like you have great expectations for me," I said. "I do!" she said. "I always have." Part memoir, part fiction, Special Problems is the story of the troubles that carry us away, and the people who guide us home again.

5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Wildly funny, wise, stunningly well-written By AG Christie Hodges tries to stay true to her art, dreams up schemes to delight her daughter, goes along to get along and expects that any minute all the plates she's spinning will come crashing down. Through it all, she can't help noticing all that is comic, ironic, poignant and contradictory. This is a wildly funny, fast-paced, lyrical and very wise story.

5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. We all have special problems. By yogababy The story is a little dark, very funny, and very fast, just the way I like it. For anyone who's tried to write, or tried to teach, or tried anything and felt as if the world were watching, waiting for you to screw it up -- and then somehow you got away with it all. Sort of.

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Peeping through the key hole By Justin Wiebers Like a some kind of voyeur, I feel like I just got a glimpse inside Christie Hodgen's head (or at least a version of what happens in her head) and it feels so much like the conversations that take place in my own head! She helps us see that life is messy, and incomplete, and ridiculous, and uninspiring at times, but it helps to know that other people feel like that sometimes too.I can't wait to read "The Foot!"

The author of Please Don’t Come Back from the Moon and My American Unhappiness delivers his breakout novel: a deft and hilarious exploration of the simmering tensions beneath the surface of a contented marriage which explode in the bedrooms and backyards of a small town over the course of a long, hot summer.

In the sweltering heat of one summer in a small Midwestern town, Claire and Don Lowry discover that married life isn’t quite as they’d predicted.

One night Don, a father of three, leaves his house for an evening stroll, only to wake up the next morning stoned, and sleeping in a hammock next to a young woman he barely knows. His wife, Claire, leaves the house on this same night to go on a midnight run—only to find herself bumming cigarettes and beer outside the all-night convenience store.

As the summer lingers and the temperature rises, this quotidian town’s adults grow wilder and more reckless while their children grow increasingly confused. Claire, Don, and their neighbors and friends find themselves on an existential odyssey, exploring the most puzzling quandaries of marriage and maturity. When does a fantasy become infidelity? When does compromise become resentment? When does routine become boring monotony? Can Claire and Don survive everything that befalls them in this one summer, forgive their mistakes, and begin again?

Award-winning writer Dean Bakopoulos delivers a brutally honest and incredibly funny novel about the strange and tenuous ties that bind us, and the strange and unlikely places we find connection. Full of mirth, melancholy, and redemption, Summerlong explores what happens when life goes awry.

Summerlong: A Novel, by Dean Bakopoulos

Review Dean Bakopoulos is a great talent--everything he writes is full of insight and inspiration and the best kind of divine comedy. (Lorrie Moore)Summerlong is Dean Bakopoulos at his finest: daringly funny, heartbreakingly sad, and forever on the watch for redemption. This is a book for any season, any reader, anywhere--it shimmers with magic, lust, and love. (Nickolas Butler, author of Shotgun Lovesongs)There is no better guide through a hot summer in the heartland than Dean Bakopoulos...Lovers chasing all over the joint, the glorious wreckage, and Bakopoulos with his keen eye, his sympathy and his wit, there to see all. (Jane Hamilton)“Tennessee Williams has nothing on Bakopoulos when it comes to marital and moral dissipation… Into this emotional abyss Bakopoulos injects a high degree of coy humor and wry self-deprecation to deliver a heartbreaking and wise … A sure hit with fans of the three Jonathans: Dee, Franzen, and Tropper.” (Booklist (starred review))“Provocative, sultry… the novel stays light on its feet; its breezy chapters are laced with sex and humor… between the louche vibe and matriarchal presence, the novel often feels like Armistead Maupin’s San Francisco teleported to the Midwest.” (Kirkus)“Bakopoulos is very much his own writer, and it is his distinct humanity and sense of humor that make this story so emotionally rewarding. This is that rare, contemporary suburban novel with characters the reader can actually embrace in spite of their many flaws.” (Publishers Weekly)“A witty read about likeable people behaving badly.” (People)“A couple in a crumbling marriage find themselves entwined with two lost 20-somethings during a hot, sticky Iowan summer... Dean Bakopoulos, who lives in Iowa himself, crafts a surprisingly steamy Midwestern landscape and a set of characters who will do anything to stay afloat as their lives fall apart.” (Esquire)“Summer gets weird in a Midwestern town when married couples start behaving recklessly-as if, my God, they’re not married at all! Bakopoulos... uses the adults’ bizarre behavior to examine ideas about marriage, happiness and that oh-so-slim line between fantasy and infidelity.” (Miami Herald)“A dishy warm-weather read... Bakopoulos draws readers into the intimate life of married couple Claire and Don Lowry as they wrestle with parenting, failed ambitions and the search for middle-aged happiness. There’s sex, drugs and more sex in this steamy summer tale, with an intensely emotional undercurrent.” (Wisconsin State Journal)“Attention vacationers: Award-winning author Dean Bakopoulos... has served up a sultry story that fits perfectly in your carry-on…[but] This isn’t just a story of people enjoying a free-love bacchanal; Summerlong also explores the consequences and heartbreak of testing the limits of relationships.” (BookPage)” For a novel steeped in marital atrophy and midlife ennui, “Summerlong” offers plenty of humor in unexpected moments.” (New York Times)“Summerlong is the Great White Midlife Crisis novel that Jonathan Franzen has tried to write (and failed) and Jonathan Lethem has tried to write (and failed) and Michael Chabon (wisely) half-avoided ever trying to write. But Dean Bakopoulos pulls it off.” (NPR.org)“Summerlong is both smart and satisfying.” (Metro US)” ‘Compared to the moody and fierce North Atlantic, the vista of the icy blue lake seems to make your heart swell rather than tremble,’ thinks ABC when she sees it. The novel’s ending, sort of surprisingly, provokes the same reaction.” (Newsday)“[A] sexy but surprisingly poignant new novel…Bakopoulos’s greatest talent is his ability to mix ribald comedy with heartfelt sorrow.” (Washington Post, Ron Charles)“All the threads Bakopoulos has been expertly weaving suddenly begin to connect, and suddenly everything fits in a way that is as dazzling as the firefires that dot the shore, bringing a sense of absolute wonder and even a kind of hope.” (San Francisco Chronicle)“Beyond the muggy weather, Bakopoulos, writer-in-residence at Grinnell College, conjures the milky mood of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream,’ with pot and booze substituting for fairy dust and lovers entwined with the wrong person... Lord, what fools these mortals be! And what fun to see them in action.” (Seattle Times)“A sharply observed and smartly written book... captures the that instant of perfect equilibrium, where everything is exactly right - when love and family and career have come into exquisite balance. And then the instant after when everything you thought you’ve built just falls to pieces.” (NPR, Best Books of 2015)“With great heart and humor, Bakopoulos drops us into the town of Grinnell, Iowa, during a single summer heat wave of lust, longing and the vagaries of love.” (San Francisco Chronicle, 100 Best Books of 2015)

Reminds me very much of the work of Richard Yates, John Cheever, & early John Updike. A classic suburban love story gone awry. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this novel & expect great things from Mr. Bakopoulos for many years to come.And please reviewers, why not review the novel instead of a failed sample. Your "review" is very unfair to both the author & potential readers. Shame on you for potentially turning readers away from an excellent book because of your low star reviews.

11 of 12 people found the following review helpful. A fantastic summer read; can't stop talking about it! By Tara Leigh The fact that this narrative reminds of something I've read in the past, and really enjoyed, yet cannot remember is driving me crazy; nevertheless, this was a great read! I was already sold, based on the marketing description, and I’m so thankful that it did not disappoint. Here’s a passage that I just have to share; Claire, one of the main characters, is at the community swimming pool with her kids:"Claire focuses on the many middle-aged women, mostly mothers, around her, also wearing bikinis, but none of them, as beautiful as some of them were, suggested that kind of pending eruption she sees in the half-naked young people around her. No, Claire and her almost-forty contemporaries stand about suggesting the virtues of endurance. They had made it to middle age with a remnant of hotness, and despite the attendant sagging and indignities of aging, they managed to transcend the reality that a tattoo above the ass or behind the shoulder had been a bad idea. Yes, many of the women, Claire included, have approached forty with a verve and vigor, had Pilated and power-walked themselves into a kind of level of fitness that they had not seen since sixteen, and when they went to the pool, the self-loathing they’d been taught to feel as teenagers had been replaced by a sexy confidence."Isn't this great? I can't even do it justice. I feel like the author has imbued this entire novel with a sarcastic, yet awfully true, and humorous portrayal of life in the ‘burbs; these characters long for something different, but they seem trapped in the only reality with which they are familiar. I think the writing is fantastic, and I highly recommend this one.

9 of 11 people found the following review helpful. Darker & Edgier Than Cover Suggests By Sarah's Book Shelves Headline:Summerlong was a surprise hit for me…it’s darker and edgier than the cover would lead you to believe.Major Themes:Marriage, mid-life crises, general discontent, maintaining your identity through motherhoodWhat I Loved:- The very beginning of this one was just okay, but I liked it more and more the farther I read.- You can really feel this book…the simmering suburban discontent, everyone having an itch that’s just waiting to be scratched, the restlessness that comes with sweltering summer days. It’s like a sea of smoldering embers threatening to ignite at the slightest catalyst.- The cast of characters is delightfully eclectic and everyone is dealing with their own issues…the unhappily married housewife (Claire), the failing and desperate real estate agent (Don), the grieving lover (ABC), and the actor returning home to tie up loose ends (Charlie). And, best of all….- Ruth Manetti (she deserves her own bullet)! This eighty-some year old pothead gives the best life advice…I decided she needs to be my shrink!“You see?” Ruth says. “This is why I like you more than anybody else. When I give you the straight dope, you don’t reel off some optimistic bulls***.”- Bakopoulos nails the issue of women losing their identities during motherhood. I highlighted so many passages pertaining to this issue that made me think “yes, that’s exactly how it is.” And, I’m even more impressed given he’s male!What I Didn’t Like:The ending fizzled a bit and partially revolved around the storyline I was the least invested in. But, it didn’t bother me that much because this book was about the journey and I enjoyed that immensely.A Defining Quote:“Something happened to me,” Claire says. “I don’t know what. I stopped wanting things.” “And now?” he says. “Now,” she says, “I just want.”Good for People Who Like:Books set in the Midwest, books about marriage, books about motherhood, gorgeous writing, quirky characters, small town lifeCheck out my blog, Sarah's Book Shelves, for more reviews.

By SF Great book about two twin boys shipwrecked during the Gold Rush era who end up being "saved" by a creepy cave dweller named Daniel. I loved the setting of coastal California during the Gold Rush era. The author beautifully describes the coast and marine life. The conflict between the two boys is very complicated and very real, and Daniel is both a very creepy character, yet somehow sympathetic. Great ending, too.

When Sara attempts to save her daughter, she may also be escaping a fate worse than an abusive boyfriend…she may be running away from true love. The big question is: Which man will find her first? Sara Compton, normally strong, independent, and fun-loving, is deeply distressed at having to abandon her baby, but she has neither money nor home and is hiding from an abusive and obsessive ex-boyfriend. The only way to keep her child safe is to give her up. Anthony Jacobs has sworn off women due to a previous relationship gone sour. He finds the child, takes her home, and arranges care for her. When he places a public call for a nanny and a lovely woman arrives who seems to have a rapport with the abandoned baby, he hires her on the spot. Sara is fraught with guilt and tension at the possibility of being found out. What will Anthony think of her if—or when—he finds out the truth? To add to her worries, trouble arises in the form of Sara’s ex-boyfriend, who appears on the scene with custody papers in hand. She makes a hasty escape, her daughter in tow, but in the process of avoiding the evil Elliot Saunders, is she leaving behind her one true love?

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful! By Michelle Fayard The first romance novel Lorraine Nelson wrote, Love on the Rocks came to life after a medical emergency required therapy. As Ms. Nelson explains in her author’s note, “In an effort to regain the flexibility in that hand, I began typing. I practiced with typing tests and such but soon got bored. The inkling of an idea began running through my mind, and I went with it. Seven weeks later, Love on the Rocks was edited and ready to go.”Thank goodness Ms. Nelson decided to submit the manuscript to a publisher where the title found a home—and it’s a book that will find a home in its readers’ hearts and on their bookshelves, virtual or otherwise. For just like Lorraine, something that could have left her devastated led to one of life’s biggest joys—the same magic path Sara Compton, the incredibly sweet and strong heroine of Love on the Rocks, will discover. Sara is a heroine you’ll be both praying for and cheering for, as she escapes an abusive relationship and makes the ultimate sacrifice to protect her young baby—decisions that could lead to her arrest … or death.Ms. Nelson, with her trademark skill in creating romantic suspense filled with unforgettable characters and smooth-flowing dialogue, beautifully builds bonds of love between Sara and the book’s hero. The plot will instantly hook you and keep the pages turning. And the book contains a surprising twist I totally didn’t anticipate. An excellent read all around.

By Russell Fanelli The Duke's Children was the last of the great Palliser novels of Anthony Trollope - Can You Forgive Her (1864), Phineas Finn (1869) , The Eustace Diamonds (1873), Phineas Redux (1874), The Prime Minister (1876), and, as mentioned, The Duke's Children (1879). Trollope hoped that his public would read all six novels, although he doubted this was likely to happen given the many years separating the first novel of the series and the last.I have read all six novels in order and recommend them highly. The Duke's Children is one of my favorites for several reasons. First, it has the least amount of Parliamentary baggage attached to it, unlike several other Palliser novels. Lord Silverbridge, the Duke's first son, is elected to Parliament, but spends little time and energy on this business. Instead he first falls in love with Lady Mabel Grex, the Duke's choice for his bride, and then a beautiful American girl, Isabel Boncassen. Lady Mabel is an extraordinary woman; Trollope gives her some of the greatest love scenes in Victorian literature. In the Palliser series of novels, he never wrote better or more convincingly than in describing Lady Mabel's conversations with Lord Silverbridge, or her first love, Frank Tregear.Tregear and Lady Mabel decide to separate; Tregear then forms an alliance and later proposes to Lady Mary Palliser, the Duke's daughter. The Duke immediately rejects Tregear, a commoner, and the resolution of this romance forms an ongoing and important part of the novel. The Duke enlists the help of family and friends, but in the end, as the reader suspects from the beginning, the iron will of Lady Mary prevails.Trollope loves his Duke, who is the one constant in all six novels. He is a nobleman in every sense of the word and recognized as such by all who meet him. In this last novel, his patience is sorely tried by his three children - the last, Gerald, is not much involved in the story, but when he is it is usually unpleasant for the Duke. For the first time in the six novels, we meet the Duke not primarily in Parliament, where he would prefer to be, but at home with his children; he is not altogether comfortable in this setting, but appears to soften toward his family as the novel and series finally come to an end.Anthony Trollope is, in my opinion, the finest English novelist of manners. Few can match him when it comes to creating a world that comes alive and becomes as real for the reader as life itself. He is so skillful a writer that we feel included in the story he has created for us. When we put down his book at the end of an evening's reading, we take some of our involvement with the plot with us to think about in our own life; we are much the better for our association with Trollope. When the series concludes with the Duke finally at peace with his children, we experience a sense of satisfaction seldom experienced in reading great literature. The Duke's Children may be read as the first introduction to Anthony Trollope, but I recommend taking Trollope's advice and reading all the Palliser series of novels in order for one of the greatest and most lasting experiences found in literature.
