Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When Lucy Prior died, she left many of the possessions you'd expect to find in an average house, with the exception of a peculiar set of letters. These letters were never sent in her lifetime, and were left with the intention of having someone else decide if they should be sent, thrown away, or published. Written with the knowledge that her death was imminent, each chapter is a letter to an individual who played an influential role in Lucy's life, with whom she had severed connections decades before she passed away. In the letters, she revisits and confronts formative moments throughout her childhood and early adulthood which she had largely repressed or intentionally hidden from even her closest relatives and friends.With each letter, Lucy's estate manager must determine the value of sending a letter so long after the relationships came to an end. Some are thank you letters, others regrets or apologies, while the rest are condemnations. As the letters vary wildly, the estate manager discovers there is no clear criteria for deciding the benefit or harm in communicating with people who mattered, for better or for worse, in a person's life.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Who are you, Sam ' Unfortunately for Sam, the answer is: a lonely, single, closeted, mid-thirties woman with no close friends and no romantic prospects who feels stalled in her own life. Entirely convinced that she is unworthy of love or happiness after surviving decades of emotional neglect and bullying, Sam knows she needs to make changes, but is held hostage by her own history, which complicates her attempts to take control and start her second act. For most people it's the 2010's, but for Sam, it's 1991, 1997, 2004, or any other painful moment from her past. At any given moment, her memories rear up and seize her, paralyze her, force her to relive an endless loop of the worst times of her life. Sam's inability to come to terms with her past immobilizes her, leaving her isolated, unfulfilled and desperate for change while navigating past traumas and current family crises. As Sam tries to change her own life for the better, her actions have unintended consequences across her family.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Released from a Maryland prison after nearly twenty years served for a crime he committed during high school, Matt is reunited with his younger sister, Jenny. Matt has to prove to his parole officer, his family, and himself, that he can survive as a free man for the first time in his adult life, while facing the challenges of re-entry into a world that drastically changed during his sentence. Knowing that reaching the first year without retuning to prison is critical to Matt's long-term odds of staying out permanently, Jenny brings him to live with her husband Hector and young daughter Julia, neither of whom Matt has ever met. Despite Jenny's best efforts, she struggles to integrate her brother into the life she's built, and to protect him from people who think he belongs back in prison-including their parents. Realizing that they have grown up into strangers, the siblings seek support from their community of family, friends, and colleagues.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Death takes the lead in this collection of eight disparate tales, exploring how the loss of loved ones affects us, how surviving close calls with death shape us, how the fear of death motivates us, and how we can be either lifted up or let down by our communities in dealing with lingering grief. The genres vary between stories, including science fiction, magical realism, and suspense. My Life with Death: A child becomes friends with Death and later serves as Death's assistant, constantly grappling with how much her relationship with Death limits her ability to enjoy her own life. The Patron Saint of Pianos: A 1980's homicide detective, exhausted by working on too many cartel and gang-related deaths, moves from the southern border to a quiet, one-stoplight northern town for a fresh start.My Husband's Fathers: A marriage strained by a husband habitually using the death of his mother to dismiss anyone else's pain or trauma endures a new challenge when the couple fosters two young brothers.The Girl Who Sold the World: Humanity faces an existential threat when an alien collective arrives at Earth to judge the worthiness of all species on the planet. My Sister Agnes: A 1990's suburb is shaken by an unexpected death, which brings neighbors together for one summer, and forever shapes one of the families. The Shattered Glass Girl: A teenage girl in the 1920's dies due to her father's cruel discipline, leaving her spirit bonded to the house, enabling her to have a second chance at happiness when a new family moves in. My Side of the World: A married woman in her midlife discovers evidence that a former paramour may be dead, leading her to obsess over confirming his demise in the present, while also reexamining her past and the influence he had in shaping her present life. The Red Lights: When a young girl has a recurring nightmare of being murdered, her grandmother convinces her that it is a factual depiction of what will happen.…

The binding statement declares: Through my choice of materials, design and structure I sought to capture the essence of the scenes depicted within the book. The treatment of the spine and adjacent shapes are palm trees with the shapes at the fore-edges being stylised representations of signage, viewed from street level. The structure of the binding was devised to cope with the particular demands of a thick single section text block printed on heavy paper. The original covers of the edition binding have been incorporated into the box as the top of the lid." Peter Jones worked in London as a furniture restorer and leather liner before training in bookbinding at Brighton Polytechnic. He now works as a bookbinder and as a carpenter and his books have a remarkably engineered quality with a great understanding of how to use different material in his work. He has taught bookbinding extensively, including at the Universities of Brighton and Roehampton and is a Fellow and Past President of Designer Bookbinders. His work is exhibited internationally and held in numerous collections. Peter mainly works from his studio bindery in Wannock, East Sussex.…
