Includes Praise for Juliet; Author Dedication; Preliminary Page Quote by Shakespeare; The Prologue; Author's…Note and About the Author. First Canadian edition, first printing. "Juliet is one of those rare novels that has it all: lush prose, tightly interwined parallel narratives, intrigue, and historical detail, all set against a backdrop of looming danger. Anne Fortier casts a new light on one of history's greatest stories of passion. I was swept away." -- Sara Gruen, author. "A magnificent contemporary take on the greatest loves story of all time. Epic, sensual, and fast-paced, Anne Fortier's Juliet will leave you stunned -- wideeyed and breathless, with the dust of 14th century Siena on yur brow. A truly astonishing debut." -- Tish Cohen, author. "A high-flying debut . Fortier navigates around false clues and twists, resulting in a . love story that reads like a Da Vinci Code for the smart modern woman." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review). "Ingenious, intriguing, a thrilling story that keeps you turning the pages. This is a wonderfully textured novel of history and imagination that brings Italy, past and present, beautifully to life." -- Kate Mosse, author. "Twenty-five-year-old Julie Jacobs is heartbroken over the death of her beloved aunt Rose. But the shock goes even deeper when she learns that the woman who has been like a mother to her has left her entire estate to Julie's twin sister. The only thing Julie receives is a key -- one carried by her mother on the day she hereself died -- to a safety deposit box in Siena, Italy. This key sends Julie on a journey that will change her life forever -- a journey into the troubled past of her ancestor Giulietta Tolomei. In 1340, still reeling from the slaughter of her parents, Giulietta was smuggled into Siena, where she met a young man named Romeo. Their ill-fated love turned medieval SIena upside down and went on to inspire generations of poets and artists, the story reacching its pinnacle in Shakespeare's famous tragedy. But six centuries have a way of catching up to the present, and Julie begins to discover that here, in this ancient city, the past and present are hard to tell apart. The deeper she delves into the history of Romeo and Giulietta, and the closer she gets to the treasure they allegedly left behind, the greater the danger surrounding her -- superstitions, ancient hostilities, and personal vendettas. As Julie crosses paths with the descendants of the families involved in the unforgettable blood feud, she begins to fear that the notorious curse -- "A plague on both your houses!" -- is still at work, and that she is destined to be its next target. Only someone like Romeo, it seems, could save her from this dreaded fate, but his story ended long ago. Or did it? Frm Anne Fortier comes a sweeping, beautifully written novel of intrigue and identity, of love and legacy, as a young woman discovers that her own fate is irrevocably tied -- for better or worse -- to literatures's greatest star-crossed lovers." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flap. Bachman, Barbara M. (book design); Soudant, Shasti O'Leary (jacket design and illustrations); Henderson, David (author photograph) (illustrator).

As new condition black boards, white spine and gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by David Brooks; Author Dedication; Introduction: Adam II; Acknowledgments; Notes;… Permission Credits; Index and About the Author. "I wrote this book not sure I could follow the road to character, but I wanted at least to know what the road looks like and how other people have trodden it." - from the Introduction and inner front jacket flap. "With the wisdom, humor, curiousity, and sharp insights that have brought millions of readers to his New York Times column and his previous bestsellers, David Brooks has consistently illuminated our daily lives in surprising and original ways. In The Social Animal, he explored the neuroscience of human connection and how we can flourish together. Now, in The Road to Character, he focuses on the deeper values that should inform our lives. Responding to what he calls the culture of the Big Me, which emphasizes external success, Brooks challenges us, and himself, to rebalance the scales between our "resume virtues" - achieving wealth, fame, and status - and our "eulogy virtues," those that exist at the core of our being: kindness, bravery, honesty, or faithfulness, focusing on what kind of relationships we have formed. Looking to some of the world's greatest thinkers and inspiring leaders, Brooks explores how, through internal struggle and a sense of their own limitations, they have built a strong inner character. Labor activist Frances Perkins understood the need to suppress parts of herself so that she could be an instrument in a larger cause. Dwight Eisenhower organized his life not around impulsive self-expression but considered self-restraint. Dorothy Day, a devout Catholic convert and champion of the poor, learned as a young woman the vocabulary of simplicity and surrender. Civil rights pioneers A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin learned reticence and the logic of self-discipline, the need to distrust oneself even while waging a noble crusade. Blending psychology, politics, spirituality, and confessional, The Road to Character provides an opportunity for us to rethink our priorities, and strive to build rich inner lives marked by humility and moral depth. "Joy," David Brooks writes, "is a byproduct experienced by people who are aiming for something else. But it comes." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Bachman, Barbara M. (book design); White, Eric (jacket design); Wiseman, Ben (jacket illustration) (illustrator).

Charles Frazier puts his remarkable gifts in the service of a lean, taut narrative while losing none of the transcendent prose, virtuosic storytelling, and insight into human nature that have made him one of the most beloved and celebrated authors in the world. Now, with his brilliant portrait of Luce, a young woman who inherits her murdered sister's troubled twins, Frazier has created his most memorable heroine. Before the children, Luce was content with the reimbursements of the rich Appalachian landscape, choosing to live apart from the small community around her. But the coming of the children changes everything, cracking open her solitary life in difficult, hopeful, dangerous ways. Charles Frazier is known for his historical literary odysseys, and for making figures in the past come vividly to life. Set in the twentieth century, Nightwoods resonates with the timelessness of a great work of art. --Source: Publisher ; Charles Frazier was born in 1950 and grew up in western North Carolina. Frazier received his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of North Carolina and his doctorate in American literature from the University of South Carolina. He taught at the University of Colorado and North Carolina State University before writing his first novel, Cold Mountain. He based the bestselling book on true stories written by his great-great-grandfather in journals during the Civil War period. Cold Mountain won the National Book Award. His other novels are Thirteen Moons and Nightwoods. He made the bestseller list in 2018 with his title Varina. ; FINE/FINE. Signed by Author(s). Book.
