One of America's most powerful and thought-provoking novelists, "New York Times" bestselling author Jodi Picoult brilliantly examines belief, miracles, and the complex core of family.

When the marriage of Mariah White and her cheating husband, Colin, turns ugly and disintegrates, their seven-year-old daughter, Faith, is there to witness it all. In the aftermath of a rapid divorce, Mariah falls into a deep depression -- and suddenly Faith, a child with no religious background whatsoever, hears divine voices, starts reciting biblical passages, and develops stigmata. And when the miraculous healings begin, mother and daughter are thrust into the volatile center of controversy and into the heat of a custody battle -- trapped in a mad media circus that threatens what little stability the family has left.

Bellefleur (Paperback): Joyce Carol Oates Bellefleur (Paperback)

A wealthy and notorious clan, the Bellefleurs live in a region not unlike the Adirondacks, in an enormous mansion on the shores of mythic Lake Noir. They own vast lands and profitable businesses, they employ their neighbors, and they influence the government. A prolific and eccentric group, they include several millionaires, a mass murderer, a spiritual seeker who climbs into the mountains looking for God, a wealthy noctambulist who dies of a chicken scratch.

Bellefleur traces the lives of several generations of this unusual family. At its center is Gideon Bellefleur and his imperious, somewhat psychic, very beautiful wife, Leah, their three children (one with frightening psychic abilities), and the servants and relatives, living and dead, who inhabit the mansion and its environs. Their story offers a profound look at the world's changeableness, time and eternity, space and soul, pride and physicality versus love. Bellefleur is an allegory of caritas versus cupiditas, love and selflessness versus pride and selfishness. It is a novel of change, baffling complexity, mystery.

Written with a voluptuousness and startling immediacy that transcends Joyce Carol Oates's early works, Bellefleur is widely regarded as a masterwork--a feat of literary genius that forces us "to ask again how anyone can possibly write such books, such absolutely convincing scenes, rousing in us, again and again, the familiar Oates effect, the point of all her art: joyful terror gradually ebbing toward wonder" (John Gardner).

'This is an impressive book. In writing it the author demonstrates great talent, as well as great courage.' **-Mario Vargas Llosa ** If I succeed in understanding who he was before I was born, perhaps I will be able to understand who I am now that he is dead...In this sprawling family saga stretching across Latin America, a son embarks on a journey to understand his complex relationship with his father and how it shaped the man he is today. Recalling Gabriel Garcia Marquez's _One Hundred Years of Solitude _and Isabel Allende's House of the Spirits, the renowned journalist and writer Renato Cisneros probes deep into his own family history to try to come to terms with his father, General Luis Federico 'The Gaucho' Cisneros, a leading, controversial figure in the oppressive military regime that held power in Peru during the 1970s and 1980s, a tortuous period marked by state-sanctioned terrorism and the rise of the Shining Path.Selling over 35,000 copies in Peru alone, The Distance Between Us is at once excruciating in its honesty and deeply moving in its universal relevance. Selected for a slew of international prizes, it is now available in English for the first time.

His father arrives days later and soon his entire family is reunited. Over the next two months Genevieve and Trevor, accompanied by their friends and families, live a life filled with lavish parties at the Yacht and Beach Club and celebrations of weddings. Then early one morning the family secret is out. After the dramatic events that follow things return to normal until their world crumbles at their feet and they are left standing in the rubble. The United States declares war on Japan.

But now it has taken a terrible turn.

A Just and Determined Man - The Life and Times of IRA Leonard (Hardcover): Sidney Leonard Gardner A Just and Determined Man - The Life and Times of IRA Leonard (Hardcover)
Sidney Leonard Gardner
R357 Discovery Miles 3 570 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In the 1880s, William Bonney is a legendary outlaw of the American frontier-you might know him better as Billy the Kid. Scheduled to hang as a convicted murderer, Billy is represented in Lincoln County, New Mexico, by attorney Ira Leonard. But in a life spanning the continent and six of the most eventful decades in the nation's history, Leonard was much more than Billy's lawyer.

After Billy escapes, is rediscovered, and killed, Leonard moves on to other adventures. In a time when many people were swept along by great economic and political currents, Ira Leonard helped to shape the landscape of the American West. Sidney Leonard Gardner, the great-grandson of Ira Leonard, takes us on a fictional journey that captures the essence of his great-grandfather's experiences and encompasses some of the most eventful decades in building up the United States.

This intriguing novel, told as an interview, provides a glimpse into the last year of Leonard's life as he harkens back to his time as a printer, lawyer, and judge who moved from New York westward. Gardner presents Leonard as a "just and determined man" who fearlessly played a leading role in the Lincoln County wars.
