Restless Seasons
Author: David Matson Hooper
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1475984480
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 387
Book Description
Steve Dupree, an aspiring folksinger, sees his high school buddy Vic Power as everything Dupree dreams of being: a self-assured songwriter who hustles gigs out of thin air, relentlessly pursuing the dream of stardom. Bound by their love for music and the urge to see the world, their paths cross again and again over ten years and two continents. Their sometimes volatile musical partnership takes them from the beaches of Southern California to the German Alps to the canal-lined streets of Amsterdam and beyond. Along the way, Dupree learns lessons about love, loyalty, courage, and, ultimately, himself. As part of the international hippie movement of the late sixties and early seventies, Dupree and Power hop borders, dodge authorities, and share casual drugs and fleeting lovewhile tensions between the two threaten to tear their traveling band apart. As in his first novel, Avalon Summer, author David Matson Hooper seeks to capture place and time in vivid language, illuminating both the sunny ideals and the sometimes stormy realities of what it means to spend seasons in the wind. Cover art work by Robert Schmid and back cover photo by Karen Atha.

The Colonel's Wife
Author: Rosa Liksom
Publisher: Graywolf Press
ISBN: 1644451077
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
A bold, dark-hued novel by a writer who “conjures beauty from the ugliest of things” (The Wall Street Journal) In the final twilit moments of her life, an elderly woman looks back on her years in the thrall of fascism and Nazism. Both her authoritarian tendencies and her ecstatic engagement with the natural world are vividly and terrifyingly evoked in The Colonel’s Wife, an astonishing and brave novel that resonates painfully with our own strained political moment. At once complex and hideous, sexually liberated and sympathetic to the darkest of political movements, the narrator describes her childhood as the daughter of a member of the right-wing Finnish Whites before World War II, and the way she became involved with and eventually married the Colonel, who was thirty years her senior. During the war, he came and went as they fraternized with the Nazi elite and retreated together into the deepest northern wilds. As both the marriage and the war turn increasingly dark and destructive, Rosa Liksom renders a complex and unsavory character in a prose style that is striking in its paradoxical beauty. Based on a true story, The Colonel’s Wife is both a brilliant portrayal of an individual psychology and a stark warning about the perils of nationalism.
