Paperback. Zustand: New. In this intimate rendering of a relationship we learn how deceptive surface impressions can be. Leon Hale, author of Bonney's Place, was sixty years old, a "country boy" who wrote about rural Texans with humor and sensitivity in his popular column for The Houston Post and, later the Houston Chronicle. Babette Fraser at thirty-six was a child of privilege, a city girl educated abroad, struggling in her career while raising a young son. No one thought it could work. Even Hale himself held serious doubts. But it did endure. The interior congruencies they discovered through a long and turbulent courtship knit them tightly together for the rest of his life. And when he died during the Pandemic isolation period, searing levels of grief and doubt threatened Babette's understanding of the partnership and marriage that had sustained her for forty years. Had he really been the person she thought he was? Had he kept secrets that would forever change her view of him? In candid, evocative prose, she explores the distorted perceptions that often follow the death of a cherished spouse, and the loving resolution that allows life to go on. …

Paperback. Zustand: New. Each of the flawed, fully human characters we meet in these twelve stories faces a moment of life-altering transformation. Most are newcomers to the scenic, rolling countryside of central Texas whose charms they romanticize, even as the troubles they hoped to leave behind persist. A young pianist struggles to keep her emotionally fragile boyfriend alive; a displaced New Yorker's ambivalence with guns results in two fractured families; an oil man gambles on his estranged daughter's integrity. The complicated history of this German-Czech region, where the stories are set, anchors the experience of two young artists who make a costly decision in 1862. In graceful and precise, often lyrical, prose, Fraser Hale immerses us in lives whose superficial privilege provides no real protection against the unexpected.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Cole Burnett, a Texas writer, needs to keep moving. At first, it's something in his blood pressing him, pushing him to write more, achieve more. Later, after the death threat, it becomes a way to stay alive. Burnett is the kind of man whose need for freedom should send lovers running in the opposite direction. But he has a lanky charisma and the gift of listening, a somewhat rare quality for a man in the 1980's. The women he encounters in Narcissi find his attention compelling, and they all get hurt, or cause hurt, to a greater or lesser degree. But hurt is never the whole story. Each woman brings her own complicated life into her time with Cole, conflicts with husbands, traumas survived, needs postponed, children. And children grow up. He rarely sees his own. They left home before he did. He understands that loneliness compels him toward the women he meets on his travels--whether in a tavern, like Amelia; or a street dance, like Stephanie; or a book-and-author event, like Lorna. And others he connects with while working, like Dolly, Elsa, Trish and Gladys. They all know something has to change.…
