The Cat's Meow. Lord Byron thought he was a scream; the fashionable matrons tittered behind their fans at a glimpse of his hard form, and nobody knew where he came from. His startling eyes-one gold, one blue-promised a wicked passion, and his voice almost seemed to purr. There was only one thing a woman thought of when looking at a man like that. Sex. And there was only one woman he seemed to want. Lilac.

My father, Oliver L. Brown, for whom Brown v. Board of Education is named, was a proud member of a group of a few hundred people, across the country, who took risks by taking a stand for what they believed. He died in 1961, just seven years after the case, so he didn't live long enough to know that Brown would become the foundation on which so much of this country's civil and human rights initiatives would rest. Brown v. Board became important for every citizen, not just African Americans.

A femme fatale with an axe to grind. Marla Dotson is used to getting what she wants, and what she wants is Dwayne Morrow—both on and off the case.

Crawling through garbage to snap photos of awful people doing awful things was not the exciting career choice he had envisioned.

Sono passati gli anni, e a Girifalco le vite seguitano a orbitare come corpi celesti, traiettorie che s'intersecano e si allontanano rispondendo alle misteriose leggi dell'universo. La mattina dopo San Lorenzo, notte delle stelle, arriva a Girifalco un circo: è una carovana avvolta da un'aura incantata, un corteo sfavillante di elefanti e domatori, trapezisti, lanciatori di coltelli e illusionisti. La novità scuote la gente ed eccita gli animi, e cambierà per sempre le sorti di alcuni dei protagonisti del romanzo.

Psychic Mira Tejedor lies comatose in the wake of her second battle with the devious Madame Versailles, but her sacrifice was not in vain. Though at great cost, her nemesis is no more, her love has returned to the land of the living, and 12 innocent girls are back with their families. Still, young Anthony Faircloth can’t escape the notion there must have been another way. Obsessed with freeing Mira as Mira once freed him, Anthony works to rekindle their special link. Two distinct worlds, both forged in the imagination of Pyotr Ilyitch Tchaikovsky, threaten to consume his life.

Nine months have passed since psychic Mira Tejedor last walked the halls of Anthony Faircloth's adolescent mind. All but family now, Mira is relocating to Charlotte, NC, not only for a much-needed change of scenery, but to further her burgeoning relationship with Dr. Thomas Archer. On the eve of her move, however, a new threat emerges. Young girls from every corner of Charlotte are falling catatonic, a condition eerily similar to the illness from which Mira rescued Anthony the previous fall.

Thirteen-year-old Anthony Faircloth hasn't spoken a word in almost a month, and with each passing day his near-catatonic state worsens. No doctor, test, or scan can tell Anthony's distraught mother what has happened to her already troubled son. In desperation she turns to Mira for answers, hoping her unique abilities might succeed where science has failed. At their first encounter, Mira is pulled into Anthony's mind and finds the child's psyche shattered into the various movements of Modest Mussorgsky's classical music suite Pictures at an Exhibition.

The long-awaited sequel to Rejar. He was full-blooded and untamable. Sensual and sinuous. Erotically magnetic. A uniquely beautiful creature who could make himself irresistible to women. And he was feral at heart. With his glittering green and gold eyes, silken hair, and purring voice, the stunning captive chained to the wall was exactly what Jenise needed. And he was hers to take...Or so she believed. But she had never heard how dangerous it was to lie down with the cat.

Ci sono paesi in cui i libri sono nell’aria, le parole dei romanzi e delle poesie appartengono a tutti e i nomi dei nuovi nati suggeriscono sogni e promesse. Timpamara è un paese così, almeno da quando, tanti anni fa, vi si è installata la più antica cartiera calabrese, a cui si è aggiunto poco dopo il maceratoio. E di Timpamara Astolfo Malinverno è il bibliotecario: oltre ai normali impegni del suo ruolo, di tanto in tanto passa dal macero, al ritmo della sua zoppia, per recuperare i libri che possono tornare in circolazione.
