Book Synopsis Jazz & Twelve O'clock Tales by : Wanda Coleman
Download or read book Jazz & Twelve O'clock Tales written by Wanda Coleman and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 2008 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poets who can write prose that equals their poetry are rare. With this collection of thirteen new short stories, Wanda Coleman, Los Angeles's unofficial poet laureate, proves an exception to the rule yet again. The characters in these stories lead lonely lives full of longing, of potential stifled by racism, poverty, and absurd accidents of fate. And yet, even though they are trapped by the present moment, their inner lives are lush, a mirror of the city of angels in which they live, a metropolis, always simmering, as Coleman writes in the final story, ever waiting to be borne on that balmy promised crescendo. Coleman applies a poet's economy of words to her fiction, setting a scene with lightning-quick strokes, letting a detail, a dialogue, or the brisk vernacular speak for itself. .

Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the author of the New York Times bestseller Homecoming—“An ambitious, compelling historical mystery with a fabulous cast of characters…Kate Morton at her very best.” —Kristin Hannah “An elaborate tapestry…Morton doesn’t disappoint.” —The Washington Post "Classic English country-house Goth at its finest." —New York Post In the depths of a 19th-century winter, a little girl is abandoned on the streets of Victorian London. She grows up to become in turn a thief, an artist’s muse, and a lover. In the summer of 1862, shortly after her eighteenth birthday, she travels with a group of artists to a beautiful house on a bend of the Upper Thames. Tensions simmer and one hot afternoon a gunshot rings out. A woman is killed, another disappears, and the truth of what happened slips through the cracks of time. It is not until over a century later, when another young woman is drawn to Birchwood Manor, that its secrets are finally revealed. Told by multiple voices across time, this is an intricately layered, richly atmospheric novel about art and passion, forgiveness and loss, that shows us that sometimes the way forward is through the past.

Book excerpt: Charlie's plans for a perfect vacation are dashed when his mother announces they'll be visiting her distant relatives instead. Traveling to England might be exciting, but there's nothing fun about a summer spent with quilt-crazy Auntie Phranzie and reclusive Uncle Ralph. Exploring his relatives' bizarre, clock-filled home, Charlie discovers a leather book hidden in the attic. Inside is a handwritten message warning the reader to proceed with the utmost caution. Charlie isn't very cautious, which explains why he chooses to sneak into Uncle Ralph's forbidden room, where a series of events transports him to the clock book's world. In that world, Wenzel Bennington's life is unraveling. The Hill, his once-peaceful home, is under attack from the malevolent Malek. Left unchecked, Malek threatens to destroy everything Wenzel loves. Charlie and Wenzel find themselves instrumental players in the war against Malek. Joined by a mysterious girl marked by magic and aided by the mystical Presence, they will bring peace to the Hill-or live just long enough to see Malek triumph. Reminiscent of a modern-day Chronicles of Narnia, The Boy and the Clock Book marks the beginning of Charlie's adventures in a world where destiny and magic intertwine with strength of character.
