The Phantom of Fifth Avenue
Author: Meryl Gordon
Publisher: Grand Central Publishing
ISBN: 1455512648
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 413
Book Description
From New York Times bestselling author Meryl Gordon, the definitive biography of Huguette Clark, who went from being one of the wealthiest and most famous Jazz Age socialites to spending the last twenty years of her life hiding out in hospitals. Born in 1906, Huguette Clark grew up in her family's 121-room Beaux Arts mansion in New York and was one of the leading celebrities of her day. Her father William Andrews Clark, was a copper magnate, the second richest man in America, and not above bribing his way into the Senate. Huguette attended the coronation of King George V. And at twenty-two with a personal fortune of $50 million to her name, she married a Princeton man and childhood friend William MacDonald Gower. Two-years later the couple divorced. After a series of failed romances, Huguette began to withdraw from society--first living with her mother in a kind of Grey Gardens isolation then as a modern-day Miss Havisham, spending her days in a vast apartment overlooking Central Park, eating crackers and watching The Flintstones with only servants for company. All her money and all her real estate could not protect her in her later life from being manipulated by shady hangers-on and hospitals that were only too happy to admit (and bill) a healthy woman. But what happened to Huguette that turned a vivacious, young socialite into a recluse? And what was her life like inside that gilded, copper cage?

Inspector Leroux had witnessed the execution of the Phantom of the Opera. Justice had been served.

Driven by outrage and a desire for revenge, the inspector tracks the Phantom to his new home. But there is another ghost from Erik's past, one who dogs the Phantom's steps, who sabotages the production of his newest opera, and who threatens the peace he has found with Meg and his family. Book IV, Phantom Death, is the last in the Phoenix of the Opera series. It continues and closes the story begun in The Phoenix of the Opera, and continued in Out of the Darkness: The Phantom's Journey and The Phantom's Opera.

The Phantom Tollbooth
Author: Norton Juster
Publisher: Yearling
ISBN: 0394820371
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
With almost 5 million copies sold 60 years after its original publication, generations of readers have now journeyed with Milo to the Lands Beyond in this beloved classic. Enriched by Jules Feiffer’s splendid illustrations, the wit, wisdom, and wordplay of Norton Juster’s offbeat fantasy are as beguiling as ever. “Comes up bright and new every time I read it . . . it will continue to charm and delight for a very long time yet. And teach us some wisdom, too.” --Phillip Pullman For Milo, everything’s a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he’s got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason. Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it’s exciting beyond his wildest dreams!
