A Little Like Scarlett: A Partial Autobiography by Stephanie Van Orman

Leave a Comment

“About A Little Like Scarlett: A Partial Autobiography:

Have you ever been curious about what an author’s life is like? If an author writes romantic novels, what has her dating life been like in order for her to write the way shes does? I want to know, but it’s hard to find the information. The author wrote romance novels, but she didn’t write an autobiography. Sometimes I open a book and I wonder if the author has ever seen or talked to a real man by what she has written. Sometimes, I’m the novelist, and I get comments amounting to the same question about me. Well, more than anything, I love answering questions. However, a question like that takes an entire book to answer. With that, I’d like to take you to the world of my teenage dating life, where I was a Southern Albertan belle of the ball. I was at a dance every weekend like a debutant among trackers and churches. I’ll introduce you to the heartless version of myself, who said exactly what needed to be said, no matter what mess it made. It will all work out in the end… Probably.

13 Thorns: Thirteen tales of truth and terror by Wayne Kyle Spitzer

Leave a Comment

“About 13 Thorns: Thirteen tales of truth and terror:

I glanced at our sticks only several feet away, canted in the sand, their shafts crude but straight— then at the thing, which was nearly to its ship. And the truth of it is I was running before I’d even made a conscious decision to do so, running with the friends I’d had since 4th grade at Broadway Elementary, both of whom beat me to the pikes. Nor did we stop to think about it as we chased the thing down like chieftains and Orley delivered the first blow, lancing its back decisively and pinning it to the earth as I slid mine into what would have been its rib-cage and Kevin impaled its neck, all of which caused the thing to struggle furiously even as it tried to scream—this most assuredly—but found it had no mouth; as it melted away from our sticks like butter and reconstituted itself on the go, finally closing to within a few feet of its ship before Orley ran it through its back yet again and smashed it to the ground, stopping it in its tracks—even as Kevin and I stabbed it repeatedly—the sun filtering through the pines as it shuddered and bled, its ship beginning to falter, growing cool amidst the shadows.And yet we kept stabbing as though infected with blood-lust: exhilarated by each blow, hot for the kill, while nonetheless feeling as though we had lost something with each strike. Something of who we were and might have become. Something which felt good and bad at the same time. Like romantic love, I suppose, which we had yet to experience. Or the bite of cigarette smoke into the throat and lungs.Until at last the ship lie dormant and the Thing from Another World was dead, if it had ever lived at all, at least in the way we understood it. And then we just stood there for a time amongst the shafts of light and brooded in our youth and vigor and passion; there in July of 1980 in the sweltering heat and humidity of the day. There in the forest by the lake, which was shot through with orange and gold, in the brief, burning cathedral of summer.

Featured Post: Where do you go to by Jean Cerfontaine

Leave a Comment

“About Where do you go to:

When the young Marie-Claire wakes up in Rome, she has no idea who she is or how she got there.

Her tale of adversity starts in the biting cold, her past unknown and her future uncertain. Our heroine gets adopted from the Marcigliana orphanage by a French diplomat, initiating a journey of self-discovery across post-World War II Europe.

In Athens, she discovers a talent for ballet, which gets elevated to greater heights when the family moves to Moscow at the height of the Cold War. Marie-Claire blooms into a social butterfly, joining the high society in Paris and mingling in social circles with the famous singers, writers, and artists who inhabit the City of Light in the early 1960s.

Her marvelous travels across Europe include adventurous summer vacations in the French Riviera, weekends at the family country estate in Chantilly and winters in snowy St Moritz.

Interspersed with the coming of age tale of her young life, is her attendance of an embassy party in Paris as a young woman in 1965. Now a student at the Sorbonne, Marie-Claire meets up with figures from her past in the Soviet embassy and faces a painful reminder of an event which forever changed her life in Moscow.

The epic account of Marie-Claire’s life is an enthralling literary adaptation of Peter Sarstedt’s famous song, celebrating 50 years since he won the 1969 Ivor Novello award for “Where do you go to (my lovely)?” The mystery of her origins is finally uncovered, revealing the tragic time prior to that cold night in Rome, bringing an unexpected end to her persistent nightmares and morning tears.
