Book excerpt: It's August 1930 and storm clouds are brewing across Europe, heralding the rise of fascism and the upheavals of the Great Depression. Even so, these frightening realities can't stop twenty-four-year-old Betty Harbert from making the most of her tour of the continent. Sailing from Montreal with her wealthy Aunt Barbie and cousin Win, Betty attends a Parisian finishing school, tours Europe twice, and spreads joie-de-vivre wherever she goes. Based on a stack of letters written by the author's mother during her year abroad, this novel offers an exciting glimpse of inter-war life in some of Europe's great cities, through the eyes of a vibrant young woman who never failed to appreciate the magnificent world around her. Whether she's riding around the English countryside in her date's Morris Cowley sports car, at the salon getting a Marcel wave, or touring the Louvre and the Tuileries Garden, Betty's great wit and warmth come through in every line of this account of her adventure abroad.

Book Synopsis The Tool & the Butterflies by : Dmitry Lipskerov
Download or read book The Tool & the Butterflies written by Dmitry Lipskerov and published by Deep Vellum Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dmitry Lipskerov, an award-winning Russian writer compared throughout his career to Mikhail Bulgakov and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, focuses his unbridled imagination on the story of wealthy, satisfied Mr. Iratov, whose virile world is flipped upside-down. Taking a page from Gogol’s satirical story “The Nose,” wherein the protagonist loses his aforementioned facial feature, Lipskerov's novel transposes such a loss onto a more delicate organ. The protagonist awakens one morning bereft of his tool; and the tool, which re-appears, sentient and in a small village far away, without his man. Thus begins a novel both funny and absurd, in which characters come together across disparate social strata and with differing goals to weave the fate of a universe familiar yet fantastical, a perfect satire of the madness of Russian society today. The Tool and the Butterflies, Lipskerov's eagerly anticipated English language debut, is not just a darkly comedic exploration of post-Soviet attitudes towards gender and sexuality, but also a historically and socially grounded narrative rich in naturalistic dialogue and everyday detail, and an engaging story of family and what matters most in life, in the grandest tradition of Russian literature.

Book excerpt: “An action-packed plot, rich period detail, and a bit of romance will insure that readers of cozies and historical mysteries will find much to enjoy.” —Booklist When Winifred Stanford-Jones wakes up beside the bloodied corpse of her lover, her memories of the night before a blur, Ursula Marlow rushes to her friend and fellow suffragette’s side. As the daughter of the richest industrialist in England, Ursula plans to use her family connections to prove Winifred’s innocence. But when she calls on her father’s trusted legal advisor for help, Lord Oliver Wrotham not only dismisses her, he demands Ursula back off the case. It’s a command that only ignites Ursula’s ire and determination to uncover the truth herself. So when Ursula’s inquiries lead her to mysteries buried in her beloved father’s past, the heiress boards a ship for South America to unravel the chain of events that led to the brutal murder—Lord Wrotham hot on her trail. Once deep in the jungle with her handsome nemesis, Ursula will confront dark secrets and forbidden desires. “Langley-Hawthorne follows in the pertly trod path set by Jacqueline Winspear. . . . Consequences of Sin is more Dorothy Sayers than CSI, which isn’t a bad thing at all.” —Calgary Herald “An engaging heroine, the lure of romance, a rapid pace and the requisite period detail.” —Kirkus Reviews

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is it that holds them back? Is it love? Trust? A fear that what they feel is no more than lust? These are the questions the siblings of clan MacKintosh seek the answers to in the Questions for a Highlander series. The Perfect Question Richard MacKintosh returned from Egypt wounded, in body and in spirit. Determined to force the government to search for the brothers-at arms he left behind, he has no time for distractions...until Abby Merrill comes back into his life. The once brash, bossy tomboy he once knew is now a lovely sophisticated woman who stirs anything but brotherly feelings. But Abby has a few demons of her own. If they have any chance at a future together, they must first free themselves from the past. A Question of Love Since meeting Eve Preston years before, Francis MacKintosh has become a man embittered by life, a disgraceful wife, and the scandalous divorce that has darkened his family's name. He never thought that fate would bring Eve back into his life or that he would dare to love and trust once more. But for his bonny lass, he's willing to take a chance. If only he can convince Eve to do the same! A Question of Trust When Jack Merrill inherits not only a title of Earl of Haddington but the devastating debt that comes with it, his friends convince him that there is no better way to gain quick wealth than to marry into it! On the hunt for a wealthy bride, Jack stumbles upon the perfect solution. Kitty Hayes is everything her sister Eve was not–full of a fire and spirit that challenges him. She's also possesses Eve's finest quality—the fortune he needs. But Kitty is a married woman and swears never to wed again once she gets the divorce she longs for. When Jack becomes first friend then lover then rescuer, can Kitty set aside her troubled past, and not only love, but trust again? A Question of Lust Moira MacKenzie is thrilled that the man she loved for so long is coming home again believing he'd been killed in action five years before...until she remembers one thing. She may have loved Vin MacKintosh, but he'd never loved her back. Tormented by his years as a prisoner of war, Vin must readapt to a world far different from the one he left and Moira offers the friendship and encouragement he desperately needs to carry on. However, he discovers he cannot see her as sister any longer. She is a woman…one too desirable to resist. Will it be too late before he realizes that what he feels is more than a mere question of lust? A Question for Harry They say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. As one of them, Fiona MacKintosh isn't inclines to entrust her heart to a man again. Especially not the same man! But there's just something about Harry Brudenall and when danger looms unexpectedly, and it is her life rather than her heart that is in peril, Fiona soon realizes that there is only one man she wants to turn to. A Question Worth Asking Primrose Eames has more than enough men trying to control her already. There's no chance she’ll relent and marry again, despite her brothers’ dogged “encouragement” on the matter. What she needs is a decoy and James MacKintosh is just the man for the job. James is happy to engage in a false courtship with Prim for reasons of his own. However, he soon discovers that even a fictitious courtship with a woman set on never remarrying has its own challenges. A Question for the Ages For more than two years, Piper Brudenall has successfully hidden herself away. She'd be a fool to let her guard down now, however when Connor MacKintosh comes along offering a friendly ear, a helping hand, and something more unexpected, she’s torn between her head and the heart that knows he's a man like no other. As her past catches up with her, can she learn to trust Connor with not only her heart but her life? That’s a question for the ages.
