A louca da casa

Fiction & Literature

Uma meditação arrebatadora — repleta de humor e empatia — sobre a fantasia e os sonhos, sobre a loucura e a paixão, sobre os medos e as dúvidas dos escritores, mas também de todos nós, leitores. Livro consagrado universalmente e merecedor de diversos prêmios, A louca da casa é, acima de tudo, a ardente história de amor e salvação entre Rosa Montero e sua própria (e fervilhante) imaginação."De fato, escrever romances foi o que já encontrei de mais parecido a me apaixonar (ou melhor, a única coisa parecida), com a considerável vantagem de que a escrita não precisa da colaboração de outra pessoa. Por exemplo, quando você está submerso em uma paixão, vive obcecado pela pessoa amada, a ponto de pensar nela o dia todo; ao escovar os dentes, você vê seu rosto flutuar no espelho; dirigindo, você se confunde de rua porque está obnubilado com sua lembrança; ao tentar dormir de noite, em vez de deslizar para o interior do sono, cai nos braços imaginários do amante. Pois então, quando está escrevendo um romance, vive no mesmo estado de delicioso alheamento: todo o seu pensamento se encontra ocupado pela obra e, assim que dispõe de um minuto, você mergulha mentalmente nela. Você também se engana de esquina quando dirige, porque, como o apaixonado, tem a alma entregue e em outro lugar."

Sylvia's Marriage

Fiction & Literature

I am telling the story of Sylvia Castleman. I should prefer to tell it without mention of myself; but it was written in the book of fate that I should be a decisive factor in her life, and so her story pre supposes mine. I imagine the impatience of a reader, who is promised a heroine out of a romantic and picturesque "society" world, and finds himself beginning with the autobiography of a farmer's wife on a solitary homestead in Manitoba. But then I remember that Sylvia found me interesting. Putting myself in her place, remembering her eager questions and her exclamations, I am able to see myself as a heroine of fiction. I was to Sylvia a new and miraculous thing, a self-made woman. I must have been the first "common" person she had ever known intimately. She had seen us afar off, and wondered vaguely about us, consoling herself with the reflection that we probably did not know enough to be unhappy over our sad lot in life. But here I was, actually a soul like herself and it happened that I knew more than she did, and of things she desperately needed to know. So all the luxury, power and prestige that had been given to Sylvia Castleman seemed as nothing beside Mary Abbott, with her modern attitude and her common sense. My girlhood was spent upon a farm in Iowa. My father had eight children, and he drank. Sometimes he struck me; and so it came about that at the age of seventeen I ran away with a boy of twenty who worked upon a neighbor’s farm. I wanted a home of my own, and Tom had some money saved up. We journeyed to Manitoba, and took out a homestead, where I spent the next twenty years of my life in a hand to hand struggle with Nature which seemed simply incredible to Sylvia when I told her of it.

When We Meet Again

Fiction & Literature

Emily thinks she’s lost everything…until a mysterious painting leads her to what she wants most in the world. The new novel from the author of international bestsellers The Sweetness of Forgetting and The Life Intended shows why her books are hailed as “engaging” (People), “absorbing” (Kirkus Reviews) and “enthralling” (Fresh Fiction).Emily Emerson is used to being alone; her dad ran out on the family when she was a just a kid, her mom died when she was seventeen, and her beloved grandmother has just passed away as well. But when she’s laid off from her reporting job, she finds herself completely at sea…until the day she receives a beautiful, haunting painting of a young woman standing at the edge of a sugarcane field under a violet sky. That woman is recognizable as her grandmother—and the painting arrived with no identification other than a handwritten note saying, “He always loved her.”Emily is hungry for roots and family, so she begins to dig. And as she does, she uncovers a fascinating era in American history. Her trail leads her to the POW internment camps of Florida, where German prisoners worked for American farmers...and sometimes fell in love with American women. But how does this all connect to the painting? The answer to that question will take Emily on a road that leads from the sweltering Everglades to Munich, Germany and back to the Atlanta art scene before she’s done. Along the way, she finds herself tempted to tear down her carefully tended walls at last; she’s seeing another side of her father, and a new angle on her painful family history. But she still has secrets, ones she’s been keeping locked inside for years. Will this journey bring her the strength to confront them at last?
