Book Description
Etruscan Evenings lies in the sensuous curvature of ancient and present day Italy. The sequel to Cairo Diary: an Egyptian fable, follows the life of anthropologist Dr. Justine Jenner after she is expelled from Egypt in the wake of discovering and making public the controversial diary of the Virgin Mary. Exiled into Tuscany, Jenner finds herself embroiled in three interwoven stories of discovery: the long-lost letters from D.H. Lawrence to her great-grandmother, Isabella; an Etruscan tomb revealing the origin and migration of an ancient people predating Rome; and the genealogy of the Virgin Mary and Jesus. While shaken by the frank revelations in Lawrence's letters and the intimate relationship between the primeval Etruscans and Jesus' mother, Jenner must confront her own sexuality and yearning for personal freedom. The second in a trilogy, Etruscan Evenings is riveted with literary, religious and archeological history and international politics, each narrative magnifying and altering the meaning of the others.A quarter century ago, while visiting Italy for the first time, author Linda Lambert came upon D.H. Lawrence's Etruscan Places, and the story of Etruscan Evenings began to take form in her mind. Returning years later to follow the Etruscan city states described by Lawrence, she was accompanied this time by the discoveries in the diary of the Virgin Mary made public in Cairo Diary: an Egyptian fable, discoveries that merge with the history of the Etruscans and Italy itself. Dr. Linda Lambert is an internationally recognized lecturer, historian, and author in the field of leadership. Feminist and historical themes characterize many of her best-selling leadership books, ideas that take center stage in her novels as well. Linda is Professor Emeritus at California State University, East Bay, and lives at The Sea Ranch, California, with her husband, Morgan Lambert.

The Last Cold Place
Author: Naira de Gracia
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982182768
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Lab Girl meets Why Fish Don’t Exist in this “compelling blend of memoir, environmental writing, and scientific exploration” (Kirkus Reviews) from a young scientist studying penguins in Antarctica—a firsthand account of the beauty and brutality of this remote climate, the direct effects of climate change on animals, and the challenges of fieldwork. Offering a dramatic, captivating window into a once-in-a-lifetime experience, The Last Cold Place details Naira de Gracia’s time living and working in a remote outpost in Antarctica alongside seals, penguins, and a small crew of fellow field workers. In one of the most inhospitable environments in the world (for humans, anyway), Naira follows a generation of chinstrap penguins from their parents’ return to shore to build nests from pebbles until the chicks themselves are old enough to head out to sea. Naira describes the life cycle of a funny, engaging colony of chinstrap penguins whose food source (krill, or small crustaceans) is powerfully affected by the changing ocean in lively and entertaining anecdotes. Weaving together the history of Antarctic exploration with climate science, field observations, and her own personal journey of growth and reflection, The Last Cold Place illuminates the complex place that Antarctica holds in our cultural imagination—and offers a rare glimpse into life on this uninhabited continent.
