Book excerpt: Are Laurel's visions madness or could they be divinely inspired? Laurel Fischer knows the trials of having a prophetic gift all too well. Her husband, Frank, had believed her when she saw they'd have their daughter, Grace. He staked everything on it when she foretold his election to city council. But when a vision revealed that Frank was in the arms of another woman? Frank's politics took a turn. He divorced Laurel. He used her visions to prove her an unfit mother. He'd wed his wealthy mistress, Shana-a woman with everything but the child she'd always wanted. When a disturbing new vision precedes the councilman's slaying, Laurel seems a likely suspect. The harder Laurel fights to get Grace back, the more that spells motive to hard boiled Detective McTier. It's all the more ammo for Frank's widow, Shana, to fight Laurel for custody. Reluctant rag sheet reporter, Joe Hardisty, is pegged to cover the story, focusing on Laurel's visionary gift. A legit journalist at heart, Joe balks at the sensational angle. Since his brother was once abused by a priest, the last person Joe is inclined to trust is another supposed emissary of God. Fresh off a failed relationship with his editor, Debra Bernet, the only female he'll cozy up to is his cat. As skeptical about romantic relationships as he is about matters of faith, Joe's walls are high, but the enigmatic Laurel has a way of unearthing Joe's most closely guarded secrets. Could Laurel's visions be genuinely inspired by God? A forbidden romance blossoms as this psychological thriller unfolds, while detectives close in on a killer. Which mother will prevail in the custody battle for Grace? Can Joe return to the faith he knew as a child? Will Laurel survive to find love again? Redeeming Romance is an anthology series of inspirational love stories based on Susan Rohrer's screenplays. In What Laurel Sees: a love story, this Christian Fiction series takes a suspenseful turn, blending the non-graphic sensitivity of a cozy mystery with the real world character drama of a psychological thriller. Biblical fiction lovers will find intrigue in the developing relationship between modern day prodigal son and a woman with a purported prophetic gift, especially when her visions and dreams hit far too close to home.

Download or read book Cabins in the Laurel written by Muriel Earley Sheppard and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-03-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1928 New York native Muriel Earley Sheppard moved with her mining engineer husband to the Toe River Valley -- an isolated pocket in North Carolina between the Blue Ridge and Iron Mountains. Sheppard began visiting her neighbors and forming friendships in remote coves and rocky clearings, and in 1935 her account of life in the mountains -- Cabins in the Laurel -- was published. The book included 128 striking photographs by the well-known Chapel Hill photographer, Bayard Wootten, a frequent visitor to the area. The early reviews of Cabins in the Laurel were overwhelmingly positive, but the mountain people -- Sheppard's friends and subjects -- initially felt that she had portrayed them as too old-fashioned, even backward. As novelist John Ehle shows in his foreword, though, fifty years have made a huge difference, and the people of the Toe River Valley have been among its most affectionate readers. This new large-format edition, which makes use of many of Wootten's original negatives, will introduce Sheppard's words and Wootten's photography to a whole new generation of readers -- in the Valley and beyond.

Download or read book Eudora Welty and Mystery written by Jacob Agner and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2022-12-28 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributions by Jacob Agner, Sarah Gilbreath Ford, Katie Berry Frye, Michael Kreyling, Andrew B. Leiter, Rebecca Mark, Suzanne Marrs, Tom Nolan, Michael Pickard, Harriet Pollack, and Victoria Richard Eudora Welty’s ingenious play with readers’ expectations made her a cunning writer, a paramount modernist, a short story artist of the first rank, and a remarkable literary innovator. In her signature puzzle-texts, she habitually engages with familiar genres and then delights readers with her transformations and nonfulfillment of conventions. Eudora Welty and Mystery: Hidden in Plain Sight reveals how often that play is with mystery, crime, and detective fiction genres, popular fiction forms often condescended to in literary studies, but unabashedly beloved by Welty throughout her lifetime. Put another way, Welty often creates her stories’ secrets by both evoking and displacing crime fiction conventions. Instead of restoring order with a culminating reveal, her story-puzzles characteristically allow mystery to linger and thicken. The mystery pursued becomes mystery elsewhere. The essays in this collection shift attention from narratives, characters, and plots as they have previously been understood by unearthing enigmas hidden within those constructions. Some of these new readings continue Welty’s investigation of hegemonic whiteness and southern narratives of race—outlining these in chalk as outright crime stories. Other essays show how Welty anticipated the regendering of the form now so characteristic of contemporary women mystery writers. Her tender and widely ranging personal correspondence with the hard-boiled American crime writer Ross Macdonald is also discussed. Together these essays make the case that across her career, Eudora Welty was arguably one of the genre’s greatest double agents, and, to apply the titles of Macdonald’s novels to her inventiveness with the form, she is its “underground woman,” its unexpected “sleeping beauty.”

This book was released on 1994 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume VII of the Cambridge History of American Literature examines a broad range of American literature of the past half-century, revealing complex relations to changes in society. Christopher Bigsby discusses American dramatists from Tennessee Williams to August Wilson, showing how innovations in theatre anticipated a world of emerging countercultures and provided America with an alternative view of contemporary life. Morris Dickstein describes the condition of rebellion in fiction from 1940 to 1970, linking writers as diverse as James Baldwin and John Updike. John Burt examines writers of the American South, describing the tensions between modernization and continued entanglements with the past. Wendy Steiner examines the postmodern fictions since 1970, and shows how the questioning of artistic assumptions has broadened the canon of American literature. Finally, Cyrus Patell highlights the voices of Native American, Asian American, Chicano, gay and lesbian writers, often marginalized but here discussed within and against a broad set of national traditions.
