Book excerpt: A charming, deeply imaginative debut novel about a young girl who is immortalized in her father’s illustrated books containing clues to their family secrets. Romilly Kemp and her eccentric painter father have happy but sheltered lives in a ramshackle mansion in the English countryside. When her father finds fame with a series of children’s books starring Romilly as the main character, everything changes: exotic foods appear on the table, her father appears on TV and strangers appear at their door, convinced the books will lead them to a precious prize. But as time passes, Romilly’s father becomes increasingly suspicious of the outside world until, before her eyes, he begins to disappear within himself. She returns to his illustrations, looking for a way to connect with her ailing father, and finds a series of clues he’s left just for her. This treasure hunt doesn’t lead her to gold or jewels, but something worth far more—a shocking secret that is crucial to understanding her family. Written with tremendous heart and charisma, The Book of Hidden Wonders is an unforgettable story about growing up, facing mortality and discovering the hidden wonders that make us who we are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Al Calienes was born in Brooklyn New York. His first career choice was that of an artist; he did spot ads and storyboards but longed to create epic storybook adventures for children. One such story is that of a clown named Renaldo. Al had the idea in his mind to actually become the character of his storybook idea. He began his journey in the circus at the age of 26 with the Big Apple Circus. “ The show stopped three blocks from my place in Brooklyn so I didn’t run away to the circus, I walked”. He says. Starting at the bottom rung of the ladder ushering patrons to their seats, he worked his way up and saw the circus from a perspective that many seasoned and multi-generation performers don’t get to experience. After becoming a clown with the one ring wonder and being there for 8 years, Al began teaching his new found skills at the Luna Stage Theatre Company, then went back to performing circus at Sea World in Florida, Circus Sarasota, The Royal Hanneford Circus, The Garden Bros. Circus of Canada and Zippo’s Circus of England. Now after more than 20 years in the circus he still tours around the country and also teaches circus skills with the National Circus Project in New York and is ready to bring his stories to the world.

Download or read book Black Sun written by Geoffrey Wolff and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2012-04-18 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes an afterword by the author. Harry Crosby was the godson of J. P. Morgan and a friend of Ernest Hemingway. Living in Paris in the twenties and directing the Black Sun Press, which published James Joyce among others, Crosby was at the center of the wild life of the lost generation. Drugs, drink, sex, gambling, the deliberate derangement of the senses in the pursuit of transcendent revelation: these were Crosby’s pastimes until 1929, when he shot his girlfriend, the recent bride of another man, and then himself. Black Sun is novelist and master biographer Geoffrey Wolff’s subtle and striking picture of a man who killed himself to make his life a work of art.
