Morgantown is a masterful ensemble piece centering around John and peopled by his unforgettable friends in the out crowd: Bill Cohen, the sharpshooting, knife-throwing Zen Buddhist Harvard scholar; Marge Levine, the political radical with the Nefertiti eyes; and William Revington, the scion of old money who has the world on a platter and can't think of a single thing to do with it. And then theres his girl-friends and sexual obsessions: Carol Rabinowitz, the Wyatt scholar and Jewish American Princess; Natalie, the folk-singing boy-girl with the mind of a scientist; Cassandra Markapolous, whom John loves but is not allowed to be in love with. And, there's the Alice in the photograph, the boy dressed up as a girl dressed up as another girl, on and on endlessly reflecting: a hall of mirrors that threatens to draw John into its vortex.

Download or read book Footprints written by Brooke Astor and published by Doubleday Books. This book was released on 1980 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brooke Astor was a sheltered sixteen when she married a young man she met at her first prom at Princeton. In a matter of months, she left her patchwork childhood behind and entered the world of the Roaring Twenties. That marriage and her own intelligence and ebullience caused Brooke Astor to grow up quickly and to make the most of what life had to offer to a witty young woman of charm and spirit. Today Brooke Astor sits on the boards of most of the important New York institutions, including the New York Public Library, the Metropolitan Museum, the Pierpont Morgan Library, and the Bronx Zoo. She administers the Astor Foundation, which gives away a considerable amount of money each year. Footprints recounts the fascinating life Brooke Astor has led: her disastrous first marriage; her second, a fairy-tale romance cut short by the early death of her husband; and her third, to Vincent Astor, one of the richest men in America. The daughter of a career marine officer, Mrs. Astor spent much of her childhood in China. Since then, she has been all over the world and met many of the most famous and interesting personages of the twentieth century -- Cole Porter, Artur Rubinstein, Somerset Maugham, Harold Nicolson, Frank Lloyd Wright, Max Beerbohm. Footprints is a delightful book written with flair and wit. Brooke Astor is never afraid to laugh -- whatever the occasion -- and her attractive and lively personality shines out from every page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drifting Through Noise When She Needs Peace Goresi reflects on her path to becoming an Honored Mage. Considering all the magical steps that delivered her so far. Facing one last challenge with a mind and heart full of chatter and nonsense. And no time left for practice and patience. Will a visit to her own past help Goresi discover the way? Also available in the collection Fantastic Side Trips: Side Characters Take Center Stage An excerpt from Footprints Along the Path: Discovering Her Own Way Forward A prickly aroma of delicately sweet magic alerted Goresi before someone spoke. "How did you do that?" She turned to see a short, slender girl with a head full of thick brown hair floating in the breeze. The girl's robe was an intense, rich orange. Only a couple of matching footprint shapes marked the ground around her. Her pale blue eyes were wide, but thank all the powers that be, her expression was more curious and admiring than upset. "I just...well, I figured out how to change the color is all." Goresi knew her cheeks were flaming red, but she wasn't sure why or what to do about it. She hadn't meant to show off or make anyone else feel bad. She was much too familiar with that kind of teasing behavior from her own family to want to pass it along to a stranger. A stranger who grinned and mouthed a silent wow as she took a few steps closer. Steps that didn't show up on the ground at all.
