Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A large, lavishly inventive novel . . . an American descendant of The Arabian Nights . . . erudite and artful entertainment.”—The New York Times Book Review At a Manhattan planetarium in 1965, ten-year-old Enzo is whisked away from his young adoptive aunt, Mala. His abductor turns out to be a blood relative: his great-uncle Junius Samax, a wealthy former gambler who lives in a converted Las Vegas hotel surrounded by a priceless art collection and a host of fascinating, idiosyncratic guests. In Samax’s magical world, Enzo receives a unique education and pieces together the mystery of his mother’s life and the complicated history of his adoption. Back in New York, Mala only knows that Enzo has disappeared. After a yearlong search proves fruitless, she enlists in the Navy Nursing Corps and on a hospital ship off Vietnam falls in love with a wounded B-52 navigator, who disappears on his next mission. Devastated again, Mala embarks on a restless, adventurous journey around the world, hoping to overcome the losses that have transformed her life. Fusing imagination, scholarship, and suspense with remarkable narrative skill, Nicholas Christopher builds a story of tremendous scope, an epic tale of love and destiny, as he traces the intricate latticework of Mala’s and Enzo’s lives. Each remains separate from each other but tied in ways they cannot imagine—until the final miraculous chapter of this extraordinary novel. “A writer of remarkable gifts.”—The Washington Post Book World “This labyrinthine novel . . . is animated by an encompassing lust for beauty.”—The New Yorker “[Nicholas] Christopher is North America’s García Márquez; Borges with emotional weight. . . . This is one of those rare books that, by connecting the stars, catches you in its web.”—The Globe and Mail Includes an excerpt of Nicholas Christopher’s Tiger Rag

Grandma and Grandpa love having their grandchildren come to visit. They plan interesting things for them to do and love participating with them. After their own children grow up and move out, they look forward to spending time with their grandchildren. Grandma enjoys getting ready by baking cookies. Grandpa prepares by mowing the lawn and tightening the screws on the Jungle Jim and swing set. Grandma and Grandpa find themselves amused by their grandchildren's antics. They also love the way their grandchildren work together. It fills Grandma's and Grandpa's hearts having their grandchildren around. Grandparents are at a disadvantage when it comes to books directed toward them raising their grandchildren. The Grand series focuses on just that, along with the time they spend together. The Grand series centers on how you would like your grandchildren to respond to the rest of the family. The series also allows grandparents to personalize the story by inputting your grandchildren's names into the book.
