Paperback. Condition: Good. Although Chitra Divakaruni's poetry has won praise and awards for many years, it is her "luminous, exquisitely crafted prose" (Ms.) that is quickly making her one of the brightest rising stars in the changing face of American literature. Arranged Marriage, her first collection of stories, spent five weeks on the San Francisco Chronicle bestseller list and garnered critical acclaim that would have been extraordinary for even a more established author. For the young girls and women brought to life in these stories, the possibility of change, of starting anew, is both as terrifying and filled with promise as the ocean that separates them from their homes in India. From the story of a young bride whose fairy-tale vision of California is shattered when her husband is murdered and she must face the future on her own, to a proud middle-aged divorced woman determined to succeed in San Francisco, Divakaruni's award-winning poetry fuses here with prose for the first time to create eleven devastating portraits of women on the verge of an unforgettable transformation.…

Gregory L FUNNY In my 6 years old son's words1) I liked how the boy (Nate) tricked him (Caden)2) I think my friend Connor would like this book Eliza Little Boys Love FrogsThis was the cutest book ever I bought it to read to my grandson. I forgot how much fun it would be for a little boy to see that cute little frog on the cover. It was just amazing how his his eyes lit up when he saw that frog peaking out from the grass He finally settled down enough so that we could read the book together but when we were done all he wanted to do was to go out and find a frog of his own He really loves the story and kept asking about Walter's family.
