Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake changed-and ended-many Bay Area lives. There were heroes, there were villains, and there were many people shaken (at first, literally) to the core. A huge event like that can throw lives together in startling ways, and that's the subject of my novel, Aftershock.I wrote the story because I lived in San Francisco at the time of the quake, and had quake-related experiences with people who became models for certain aspects of the main characters. Of course, San Francisco itself is a rich setting for fiction-the disaster circumstances called out to be made into a coherent novel.The earthquake and its damages are a frame for the emotional damage of the three primary characters. One is a blithe joker who is insecure in his art, one a respected businesswoman who feels lost to her father, and one a military veteran whose alcoholism lost him to his family and himself. Those all sound like downers, but the interplay between these characters-characters who never would have come together in these ways without the quake-is often hilarious. Except when it's not. There's a lot of San Francisco in the book, including the city's beauties, and how the AIDS crisis affects a secondary character and thus the protagonist. Even the Bronte sisters get their moments.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Are you haunted by how one mistake in life might lead to a cascade of troubles that never end Or how what looks like a minor gesture-from a person or from fate-can be the source of personal redemption Or how existence can be out-and-out inexplicable, weird, or the source of the gut-busting humor These stories are doorways into unforgettable characters and situations, and will resonate in your memory.Flowering is a collection of stories built around the themes of loss, social disruption, mistaken judgment and stumbling redemption. From a shoplifting sociopathic genius to a card-dealing witch offering a mystical experience at the blackjack tables to a harsh drunk who turns out to be a malignant-yet chillingly accurate-soothsayer, the story's lead characters are complex and not always charming, but their colors are memorably bright. ¿Location also figures significantly in other stories: settings in lush-but-lost suburban Seattle, a bleak Arizona desert town and a tiny, mysterious cottage in New Orleans all draw deeply on the native textures of their territories. From flash fiction to richly woven tales, Flowering invites you into distinct worlds, all built on story.…
