Book excerpt: Lottie said angels would rescue her children, but she could not have imagined the rescue or the place they would be taken. Five Colonial American children are swirled away to 1999 and to safety until a vengeful phone call from an assistant principal, Peggy Miller, brings Child Protective Services to remove the Luther children from their new home and place them in foster care. As their accidental rescuer, Martin Richards, plots to arrange legal and not-so-legal means to have them brought home, an unlikely advocate steps up to help. But revenge does not end at the courthouse, and Peggy Miller seeks a new way to prove she is right regardless of the harm that she may cause.

Book excerpt: A darkly witty classic about literary worth, ambition, and romantic idealism set in turn-of-the-century England, with an introduction from Hilary Mantel (Wolf Hall) “A delicious satire on the career of schoolgirl sensation Angelica Deverell. She's a truly magnificent comic creation: petulant, paranoid and frighteningly prolific." –The Guardian Angelica Deverell lives above her diligent, drab mother’s grocery shop in a dreary turn-of-the-century English neighborhood, but spends her days dreaming of handsome Paradise House, where her aunt is enthroned as a maid. But in Angel’s imagination, she is the mistress of the house, a realm of lavish opulence, of evening gowns and peacocks. Then she begins to write popular novels, and this fantasy becomes her life. And now that she has tasted success, Angel has no intention of letting anyone stand in her way—except, perhaps, herself. Now back in print after 20 years, this under-recognized classic is (unlike Angel's own novels) self-aware, funny, and subtly layered. It both sharply satirizes its protagonist and acknowledges the intensity of her imagination and the rigor of her work, all the while seeing her as fully human, complicated, and even sympathetic.

Download or read book The Stone Angel written by Margaret Laurence and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-07-22 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stone Angel, The Diviners, and A Bird in the House are three of the five books in Margaret Laurence's renowned "Manawaka series," named for the small Canadian prairie town in which they take place. Each of these books is narrated by a strong woman growing up in the town and struggling with physical and emotional isolation. In The Stone Angel, Hagar Shipley, age ninety, tells the story of her life, and in doing so tries to come to terms with how the very qualities which sustained her have deprived her of joy. Mingling past and present, she maintains pride in the face of senility, while recalling the life she led as a rebellious young bride, and later as a grieving mother. Laurence gives us in Hagar a woman who is funny, infuriating, and heartbreakingly poignant. "This is a revelation, not impersonation. The effect of such skilled use of language is to lead the reader towards the self-recognition that Hagar misses."—Robertson Davies, New York Times "It is [Laurence's] admirable achievement to strike, with an equally sure touch, the peculiar note and the universal; she gives us a portrait of a remarkable character and at the same time the picture of old age itself, with the pain, the weariness, the terror, the impotent angers and physical mishaps, the realization that others are waiting and wishing for an end."—Honor Tracy, The New Republic "Miss Laurence is the best fiction writer in the Dominion and one of the best in the hemisphere."—Atlantic "[Laurence] demonstrates in The Stone Angel that she has a true novelist's gift for catching a character in mid-passion and life at full flood. . . . As [Hagar Shipley] daydreams and chatters and lurches through the novel, she traces one of the most convincing—and the most touching—portraits of an unregenerate sinner declining into senility since Sara Monday went to her reward in Joyce Cary's The Horse's Mouth."—Time "Laurence's triumph is in her evocation of Hagar at ninety. . . . We sympathize with her in her resistance to being moved to a nursing home, in her preposterous flight, in her impatience in the hospital. Battered, depleted, suffering, she rages with her last breath against the dying of the light. The Stone Angel is a fine novel, admirably written and sustained by unfailing insight."—Granville Hicks, Saturday Review "The Stone Angel is a good book because Mrs. Laurence avoids sentimentality and condescension; Hagar Shipley is still passionately involved in the puzzle of her own nature. . . . Laurence's imaginative tact is strikingly at work, for surely this is what it feels like to be old."—Paul Pickrel, Harper's

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cowgirl, Unexpectedly Settling down isn't an option… …not when her demons refuse to die. Since returning from Iraq, veteran Mackenzie Parish has tried to find a way back to herself. Out of cash, she hires on at a Wyoming ranch. The only problem? Riding a horse is much harder than riding a Harley. But her new bunkmate, the former bull riding champion Hank Nash, is just what she needs to take her mind off her saddle sores. Estranged from his daughter, Hank has a lot to make up for, but he intends to convince Mac she should stay until then. Unfortunately, even blue skies and miles of open land may not be enough to soothe Mac's restless soul. Or mute the constant call of the road. No one gets through life unscathed, and Hank can't fathom what Mac has survived. It will take time, patience, and love to help her through. But when deadly trouble comes to the Lazy S, will Mac hit the road, or will she choose the man who's helped mend her shattered soul? Cowboy, Untamed PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS MUST LOVE HORSES Sydney Teller has a lot to prove… To the horse industry, to herself, and to the man who thinks she's nothing but trouble. All she needs is a chance. Deployments to Iraq taught Bryan "Boomer" Wilcox to be wary. And Sydney's tarnished family reputation makes him doubt she has what it takes to become the Lazy S Ranch's horse trainer. Though, it seems Sydney is determined to prove him wrong… …about so many things. But Bryan hasn't escaped the military without physical scars. And despite their attraction and budding relationship, it's Bryan's emotional wounds that have Sydney worried. When foul play threatens the ranch—and their lives—will Bryan discover he's the hero he's always been, or will his demons be stronger than their love? Cowboy, Undone PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS HOT ON THE TRAIL A second chance at first love. All Jenna Nash ever wanted was her equine therapy program… … and Quinn Powell. At least she has her program. One out of two isn't bad. Except, when tragedy strikes the Lazy S, forcing Quinn back to the ranch, Jenna's program may get closed down before it gets started. Jenna wants to save the program. Quinn wants answers… … and back into the cockpit after a possible career-ending injury. Now they must work together to find the truth. But the truth is uglier and more dangerous than either one of them imagined. Even if they can put their pasts behind them, they have more to fear than losing their hearts… … they could lose their lives.
