Описание:

The year is 1929, and newlyweds George and Serena Pemberton arrive in the mountains of North Carolina from Boston to create a timber empire. Although George has already lived in the camp long enough to father an illegitimate child, Serena is new to the mountains--but she soon shows herself the equal of any worker, overseeing crews, hunting rattlesnakes, even saving her husband's life in the wilderness. Together, they ruthlessly kill or vanquish all who fall out of favor.

Yet when Serena learns that she will never bear a child, she sets out to kill the son George had without her. Mother and child begin a struggle for their lives, and when Serena suspects George is protecting his illegitimate family, the Pembertons' intense, passionate marriage starts to unravel as the story moves toward its shocking reckoning.

Описание:

Born into a wealthy Parisian family at the center of Belle Epoque society, 18-year-old Aimee Savaray dreams of becoming a respected painter in the male-dominated art world; and secretly, she also dreams of being loved by Henri, the boy her parents took in as a child and raised alongside her.

But when Henri inexplicably disappears, in the midst of the Franco-Prussian war, the Savarays privileged lives begin to unravel. Heartbroken, Aimee tries to find him, but Henri doesn t want to be found and only one member of the family knows why.

As Aimee seeks refuge in the art world, mentored by the Impressionist Edouard Manet, she unwittingly finds her way back to Henri. With so many years gone by and secrets buried, their eventual reunion unmasks the lies that once held the family together, but now threaten to tear them apart.

A rich and opulent saga, "Girl in the Afternoon" brings the Impressionists to life in this portrait of scandal, fortune, and unrequited love."

Описание: Depressed because of complications of a head injury, Serena Manchester seeks solitude in the hometown she left almost twenty-five years before. Unknown to Serena, her hometown's landscape has changed and unseemly elements have seeped into the quaint Southern seaport town.
One night Serena witnesses a gang-related crime. She thinks she recognizes one of the young men, but chooses not to identify him. What if her brain injury has altered her perceptions? Her estranged family has already reminded her why she left town in the first place. Drawing attention to herself and perhaps endangering her well-being is the last thing Serena needs.
When tragedy strikes close to home, however, Serena can no longer keep her head in the sand. Serena feels responsible, and her reporter skills kick in. Much to the dismay of the local police, she decides to start her own investigation.

Описание: The wabi-sabi philosophy of art is probably a little different from what you`re used to-a style that finds inspiration and beauty in the imperfect, impermanent and humble nature of everyday objects. There is a special freedom in wabi-sabi`s abstract aesthetic, a forgiving approach that celebrates so-called mistakes and fosters experimental spirit.
