Book Description
When Penelope O’Shaunessy, “an incoming freshman of average height and lank hair” steps into Harvard Yard for the first time she has lots of advice from her mother: "Don't be too enthusiastic, don't talk to people who seem to be getting annoyed, and for heaven's sake, stop playing Tetris on your phone at parties." Penelope needs this advice. She is the kind of girl who passes through much of her life with coffee spilled on her white shirt, who can't quite tell when people are joking, and who, inevitably, always says the wrong thing. But no amount of coaching will prepare Penelope for the people she meets at school. Gloriously skewering the social hierarchy of college, Penelope is the brilliantly funny story of one of the most singular, memorable heroines in recent fiction.

The Edentians
Author: Gissele Trussell
Publisher: Morgan James Publishing
ISBN: 163698147X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 551
Book Description
With celestial war on the horizon, and the failure of Earth Project 606 (the rehabilitation of fallen angels and their offspring), the Edentian Council is set to abandon humanity. Only Danielle Peschard, the sole Edentian representative on Earth, can appeal to the council on Earth’s behalf. But can one person truly change the fate of the entire world? A renowned archeologist working for the MET, Danielle Peschard is familiar with the erudite and complex players in New York’s elite circles. She is also keenly aware that things are not as they seem. Earth’s inhabitants use their free will with little concern for cosmic consequences, but Danielle knows the truth—that the Edentian Council, a group of cosmic beings dispassionately monitoring the evolution of the human race, has concluded mankind’s gift of free will to be a mistake that must be corrected. As the only Edentian to be incarnated in a human body, Danielle must reestablish communication with Edentia and disrupt the nefarious plans of those set on enslaving humanity. But just as she attempts to take action, her interstellar communications cut out and she is brutally assaulted. This attack reignites an eternal conflict between the forces operating on Earth, and the only way to prevent Earth’s destruction by cosmic abandonment is for Danielle to present the best humanity has to offer to the Edentian Council as proof of Earth Project 606’s success. In a frantic race across the globe, Danielle must match wits in mortal combat with The Group: a nefarious consortium of planetary tycoons determined to implement a sinister plot—and possibly obliterate the human race. The Edentians extrapolates conflicts from Earth’s present condition and compels readers to wrestle with the origin and purpose of human existence. From Paris and the Vatican to the Egyptian pyramids and the Teotihuacan ruins, Gissele Trussell takes readers on a thrilling speculative journey that untangles webs of corporate greed, political treachery and terrorism against a cosmic, multi-layer plot that examines and challenges modern beliefs about religion and reality.

We Are One Another
Author: Arthur Guirdham
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1446490637
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
This book describes how a group of people, who had lived and suffered together in the 13th century, re-assembled in the 20th century in a limited area in the west of England. Independently of each other these people tuned in, with the piercing accuracy of searchlights, to the same tragic events in the Languedoc in the years 1242 to 1244. One of the most remarkable features of the book is the description of sketches made by a child of seven. It is clear that in these she too was remembering the same tragic years. Of this circle of people alive in the 20th century, the author has discovered the mediaeval names and roles of seven of the eight involved. Though born with a highly developed critical faculty the author regards the material revealed to him as unique. He has written this book to record faithfully an astounding experience and to fulfil the obligation laid on him to provide proof, not only of group reincarnation, but of the indestructibility of the human psyche.

Pages : 214
Book Description
From the bestselling author of A Girl Becomes a Comma Like That, a moving, disturbing, and utterly original collection of stories that examine a universe where memory and fact collide, and the imagination fills in the gaps left behind.

In "Dirty Hannah Gets Hit by a Car," a seven-year-old girl bullied by a neighbor across the street gains strength after a serious accident; in "Animals," a zoo veterinarian from a family of butchers tries at once to deal with his marital problems and the high rate at which his animals are dying; and in "Soup," a young widow tries to reconcile her feelings for her teenage son's friend, the town delinquent. With tenderness, insight, and humor, Glatt casts her gaze simultaneously on the beauty and the absurdity of our humanity, creating unforgettable portrayals of unusual characters and the complexities of desire and fidelity that compel them.
