Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The City is for the Enlightenment a central preoccupation, that social space where both the utopian and the pragmatic concerns of the eighteenth century come together in a typical tension. Unlike St Augustine's Civitas Dei, this is to be a city of men and women, planning their social geometry, interacting commercially, elaborating, as far as possible, human and secular principles of justice. This collection of specially commissioned essays, all by distinguished eighteenth-century specialists, charts the process from a variety of angles.

Book excerpt: Set in the mid-19th century, The Ballroom tells a beauty-and-the-beast love story of a rich but tightfisted businessman and a poor, lovely ingénue. Vincent Van Doren is “a hard-headed, cussing, tobacco chewing man.” He quit school in the third grade because he was unable to take on his teacher who took pleasure in humiliating him. His father’s repeated foolishness kept the family poor and reduced the family’s name to a joke. Fortunately, Vincent was big and strong enough to put an end to whatever torture kids threw at him. Even at the age of 50 Van Doren still gets into fist fights, but his persistence has made him phenomenally wealthy, even if his crudeness still brings the disdain of old money New Yorkers. Along comes Belize, his nephew’s stunning French fiancé. Van Doren’s wife, Julia, saw the way Vincent’s eyes locked on Belize the first time he saw her. It was a momentary glimpse and when they formally met he was proper, but she knew her husband well. Belize’s troubled beginnings paralleled Van Doren’s. She fled to Paris at age 14 to escape her father’s mistreatment. Alone in Paris, she worked as a shop girl at Les Trois Quartiers. There she was smitten. Like other girls her age Belize longed not only to change into a person she was not and perhaps might never be. More to the point, she longed to possess and surround herself with what she would never own. Even at sixteen, after she had worked there for two years, her job wasn’t work. It was an affair with the items she sold. Van Doren is dazzled by Belize’s beauty and even more by her eye for beauty. He never considered that his life could be this rich. His ability to delight her, fulfilling her dreams, satisfies him more than anything he has ever done. His fortune and her passion produce extraordinary results. She hangs a Rembrandt, a Corot, a Delacroix in the Clarkson Ballroom of his Boston Hotel. The Metropolitan Museum of Art later asked to borrow the tapestries they brought back from France. Their collaboration creates the magical place the ballroom remains to this day. “An atmospheric … ode to the captivating power of beauty…The novella is … rich in period detail … The author’s … prose is peppered with emotion and vivid imagery, along with deft dialogue that enhances the development of his major characters… Kirkus Review “Full of delicious moments. Didn’t want it to end.” SBS “A welcome visit to a time of aspiration eloquently written. Marci S.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2014 Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature Patrick Modiano opens Dora Bruder by telling how in 1988 he stumbled across an ad in the personal columns of the New Year's Eve 1941 edition of Paris Soir. Placed by the parents of a 15-year-old Jewish girl, Dora Bruder, who had run away from her Catholic boarding school, the ad sets Modiano off on a quest to find out everything he can about Dora and why, at the height of German reprisals, she ran away on a bitterly cold day from the people hiding her. He finds only one other official mention of her name on a list of Jews deported from Paris to Auschwitz in September 1942. With no knowledge of Dora Bruder aside from these two records, Modiano continues to dig for fragments from Dora's past. What little he discovers in official records and through remaining family members, becomes a meditation on the immense losses of the peroid—lost people, lost stories, and lost history. Modiano delivers a moving account of the ten-year investigation that took him back to the sights and sounds of Paris under the Nazi Occupation and the paranoia of the Pétain regime as he tries to find connections to Dora. In his efforts to exhume her from the past, Modiano realizes that he must come to terms with the specters of his own troubled adolescence. The result, a montage of creative and historical material, is Modiano's personal rumination on loss, both memoir and memorial.
