Book Synopsis Claire's Journey - Book One by : Michael Patrick Lally
Download or read book Claire's Journey - Book One written by Michael Patrick Lally and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-12 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story of a young woman's journey through a life changing disaster. Sheltered and shy her whole life, she is suddenly faced not only with her own horrific challenges, but finds herself taking care of another person's life as well. Excerpt:As Claire peeked out of the door, a wisp of wind sent an old crumbled piece of paper by, startling her. It was within her reach, but she receded back into the doorway, suddenly bereft of the courage she had just a moment ago. She had felt such a strong, confident urge to go out of the door and walk away just seconds before, but the sound of that paper immediately made her mind think it was Joe, coming back early. The panic had filled her with adrenaline, and she suddenly felt weak from it. That urgent need had turned into paralyzing fear. 'It wasn't Joe, he can't be back yet. Calm down!', she encouraged herself. Words were one thing, but making her feet cross that threshold was another thing entirely. Another voice, this one inside her head, began 'It's OK Claire, you can try again tomorrow! Let's go back downstairs!'. She hated that voice, but it was the one that often brought her comfort. Claire had a two minute argument with herself before she stepped back from the door, closed it, and turned back to the stairs, back to that....place. She would never call it home.It was her hell. She reached the stair, looked back to the door to make sure she hadn't left or dropped anything that Joe would see, and then started down toward her room. She was absolutely forbidden from coming upstairs. The last time she had, having peeked out of the door that time as well, Joe had known it from a hair tie she had dropped right by the door by accident. He had beaten her so badly that she cried all that night, and her body had ached for a week. Claire had become more brave since that day two weeks prior, but not by much. But two months with Joe was to her an eternity, and the burning desire she had to escape and see what was left of the world outside was growing every day. She went down the stairs to the one room where she was allowed to go, to look outside the window, and stared at the bridge again. She could be halfway to it by now, she told herself, with no small amount of regret. 'Tomorrow, for sure, tomorrow'. She had felt the coolness of the wind when she had opened the door, and knew the cold weather wouldn't be far away. She did not want to be traveling when the snow came.Claire could not stand to stare at the bridge any longer that day. To her it was everything, and nothing, since she couldn't bring out the courage in herself to do it. The world beyond it was uncertain, they had not seen a living soul since the wandering girl, Alyssa, over a month before. She didn't want to think about Alyssa either. For the time being, Claire needed to put away the things she had thrown into a travel bag, before Joe would come back and find it. She had been hiding some items that she would need for her escape a little at a time, in one of the many rooms in the old paper mill that was currently her home, food and water mostly, and fussed over it each day when Joe went out 'hunting'. She didn't have any personal belongings anymore, Joe had taken all of her things, but she had managed to hide one item, a picture of her boyfriend. She had grabbed it from on top of the TV at her apartment on the way out the day of the event. Joe didn't know she had it, and thankfully she had been able to hide it. It was the only thing she had left from her old life, and she prayed and hoped that she would find her boyfriend again. That he had made it through like she had.

Download or read book The Pharmacist written by Rachelle Atalla and published by Hodder & Stoughton. This book was released on 2022-05-12 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ***SHORTLISTED FOR THE SCOTTISH FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR*** 'Rachelle Atalla nails the claustrophobic atmosphere and brings this world to life convincingly in her impressive debut' THE SUNDAY TIMES, PAPERBACK OF THE WEEK 'This horrendously claustrophobic, utterly absorbing debut. The fiercely controlled narrative beautifully translates the horrendous grip of dismal routines and tiny, stolen pleasures' DAILY MAIL 'There are shades of George Orwell in this stunning writing debut, but Rachelle Atalla's voice is highly original. And wholly her own' THE HERALD 'A compulsive, claustrophobic but wonderfully compassionate read, beautifully written and set within a brilliantly realised world. Rachelle Atalla is a major talent and I can't wait to see where her mind goes next' KIRSTIN INNES, AUTHOR OF SCABBY QUEEN 'Atalla's speculative literary thriller debut draws you in with its mounting sense of tension, disquiet and desperation' CULTUREFLY THE BUNKER IS DESIGNED TO KEEP THEM ALL SAFE. In the end, very few people made it to the bunker. Now they wait there for the outside world to heal. Wolfe is one of the lucky ones. She's safe and employed as the bunker's pharmacist, doling out medicine under the watchful eye of their increasingly erratic and paranoid leader. BUT IS IT THE PLACE OF GREATEST DANGER? But when the leader starts to ask things of Wolfe, favours she can hardly say no to, it seems her luck is running out. Forming an unlikely alliance with the young Doctor Stirling, her troubled assistant Levitt, and Canavan - a tattooed giant of a man who's purpose in the bunker is a mystery - Wolfe must navigate the powder keg of life underground where one misstep will light the fuse. The walls that keep her safe also have her trapped. How much more is Wolfe willing to give to stay alive? Beautifully written and utterly gripping, The Pharmacist will be a guaranteed conversation starter when it is published. 'An unflinching portrayal of what we might all be capable of, Atalla's stunning debut is essential reading for our times' HELEN SEDGWICK 'Though set in a speculative future, The Pharmacist is very much a book for our own broken times. Its story grips and never lets go, unflinching in its portrayal of abused power, moral confusion and betrayal, but also fully alive to the redemptive possibilities of compassion, resistance and love. This is a powerful and memorable debut from an exciting new voice' WAYNE PRICE 'A triumph of a book. Character-led but taut and purposeful with action' LIAM MURRAY BELL

Download or read book Pond written by Claire-Louise Bennett and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-07-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A sharp, funny, and eccentric debut … Pond makes the case for Bennett as an innovative writer of real talent. … [It]reminds us that small things have great depths.”–New York Times Book Review "Dazzling…exquisitely written and daring ." –O, the Oprah Magazine Immediately upon its publication in Ireland, Claire-Louise Bennett’s debut began to attract attention well beyond the expectations of the tiny Irish press that published it. A deceptively slender volume, it captures with utterly mesmerizing virtuosity the interior reality of its unnamed protagonist, a young woman living a singular and mostly solitary existence on the outskirts of a small coastal village. Sidestepping the usual conventions of narrative, it focuses on the details of her daily experience—from the best way to eat porridge or bananas to an encounter with cows—rendered sometimes in story-length, story-like stretches of narrative, sometimes in fragments no longer than a page, but always suffused with the hypersaturated, almost synesthetic intensity of the physical world that we remember from childhood. The effect is of character refracted and ventriloquized by environment, catching as it bounces her longings, frustrations, and disappointments—the ending of an affair, or the ambivalent beginning with a new lover. As the narrator’s persona emerges in all its eccentricity, sometimes painfully and often hilariously, we cannot help but see mirrored there our own fraught desires and limitations, and our own fugitive desire, despite everything, to be known. Shimmering and unusual, Pond demands to be devoured in a single sitting that will linger long after the last page.
