Book Description
Tom Adornetto tells the story of a family thrust into uncertainty and explores whether the bonds of love and marriage can withstand life's tragedy of an unexpected divorce. There is intervention by the jealous neighbor, the greedy psychologist, the aggressive attorney, the shelter for battered women, and Bob's employer. Bob's heart is heavy with the loss of his wife's love and the separation from his children, a separation that turns his world upside down. Bob must endure a system that has become overcautious in protecting women and children from domestic violence. He has new life experiences and gains insights into two horrible evils of society: murder and suicide. Tom Adornetto weaves a compelling and compassionate story of courage in the face of unimaginable loss and exploring the strength it takes to conquer our greatest fears and violent impulses of revenge. Bob cannot let go because the past obsesses the present and obstructs his future. He pleads and begs for a second chance to talk out their differences.

She's Gone
Author: Kwame Dawes
Publisher: Akashic Books
ISBN: 1617750719
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
“[A] diaspora of black culture and strong emotions, bordering the fine line between love and madness between two troubled people.” —Booklist A prominent Jamaican reggae singer falls in love with an African-American woman while on tour in South Carolina. The two struggle to forge a relationship across a cultural and psychological divide in a story that spans from Jamaica to South Carolina to New York City. “This striking debut novel is from the heart about the heart. The characters are true, the landscapes exquisite, and the relationships dynamic, insightful, and complex. Read it and be transported.” —Bernardine Evaristo, author of Mr. Loverman “She’s Gone offers intriguing geographic descriptions of South Carolina and Jamaica and interesting moments when Dawes allows Jamaicans their say about Americans.” —PopMatters “She’s Gone delves into the psychology of desire and need as it contends with issues of culture and class. If it is a love story, it is one marked by the harsh realities of human existence that we see in the most revealing of Bob Marley’s love songs, or the cool sensual intelligence of the best of Milan Kundera. Dawes is a poet but he never let’s his poetry detract from the sheer pleasure of storytelling.” —Jamaicans.com
