Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young Russian woman comes into her own in the midst of revolution and civil war in this "brilliant" novel set in "a world of furious beauty" (Los Angeles Review of Books). After the loves and betrayals of The Revolution of Marina M., young poet Marina Makarova finds herself alone amid the devastation of the Russian Civil War -- pregnant and adrift, forced to rely on her own resourcefulness to find a place to wait out the birth of her child and eventually make her way back to her native city, Petrograd. After two years of revolution, the city that was once St. Petersburg is almost unrecognizable, the haunted, half-emptied, starving Capital of Once Had Been, its streets teeming with homeless children. Moved by their plight, though hardly better off herself, she takes on the challenge of caring for these orphans, until they become the tool of tragedy from an unexpected direction. Shaped by her country's ordeals and her own trials -- betrayal and privation and inconceivable loss -- Marina evolves as a poet and a woman of sensibility and substance hardly imaginable at the beginning of her transformative odyssey. Chimes of a Lost Cathedral is the culmination of one woman's s journey through some of the most dramatic events of the last century -- the epic story of an artist who discovers her full power, passion, and creativity just as her revolution reveals its true direction for the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lost Chimes, and Other Poems The Lost Chimes "Count not the cost, a thousand more or less Is not the question, but a perfect tone, A clang as clear as the Italian sky, As strong and joyful as the victor's cry, As deep and mellow as the ocean's moan, And tender as a mother's fond caress." "And let there be no stint of pure alloy, Of bronze and silver, no, not even of gold, Yea, let this be thy very master-piece, In all its making, - if it doth me please, Half of my fortune shall to thee be told, And to its praise my life I shall employ." Thus spake Sordino, noble Florentine, To one who was renowned for casting bells, Who now was asked to make a set of chimes, A task he had accomplished many times, But this, he thought, the highest skill compels, And yet the work he promised to begin. But first for thoughts and dreams he leisure found, For consecration to the work at hand, Since this the glory of his life should be, A grand creation, a sweet symphony Of human life, which all might understand, Their souls re-echoed in the liquid sound. II He was a man of many changing moods, Impetuous, like mighty Angelo, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: "A HIGHLY ORIGINAL DYSTOPIAN MASTERPIECE" --Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prize winning author of March "FOR ALL THE POETRY AND LYRICISM, THE CHIMES IS A SOLID SUSPENSEFUL ADVENTURE STORY AT HEART" --NPR Books A mind-expanding literary debut composed of memory, music and imagination. A boy stands on the roadside on his way to London, alone in the rain. No memories, beyond what he can hold in his hands at any given moment. No directions, as written words have long since been forbidden. No parents--just a melody that tugs at him, a thread to follow. A song that says if he can just get to the capital, he may find some answers about what happened to them. The world around Simon sings, each movement a pulse of rhythm, each object weaving its own melody, music ringing in every drop of air. Welcome to the world of The Chimes. Here, life is orchestrated by a vast musical instrument that renders people unable to form new memories. The past is a mystery, each new day feels the same as the last, and before is blasphony. But slowly, inexplicably, Simon is beginning to remember. He emerges from sleep each morning with a pricking feeling, and sense there is something he urgently has to do. In the city Simon meets Lucien, who has a gift for hearing, some secrets of his own, and a theory about the danger lurking in Simon's past. A stunning debut composed of memory, music, love and freedom, The Chimes pulls you into a world that will captivate, enthrall and inspire.
