Book excerpt: No other obsession strikes as hard as the love that hits a teenaged boy — especially if he’s the sort of kid who is no saner than he wants to be. From the moment Adam Webb sees Francine Haggard—in the van that is supposed to return them to the Institute Loiseaux—the two young mental patients are inextricably connected. Adam will never let this girl go. From hiding her in his bedroom to spiriting her away to Minnesota’s north woods, “Miss Entropia” becomes the focus of Adam’s every thought and of everything he does. He believes her to be a goddess, his own goddess. But the pyromaniacal Miss Entropia will be neither worshiped nor owned. And so Adam’s possessiveness is destined to push her to the breaking point. Theirs is an incendiary love story, an unbalanced Romeo and Juliet, that spins and arcs its way strangely toward tragedy.

Book Synopsis Common Boundary by : Gregory F. Tague

Download or read book Common Boundary written by Gregory F. Tague. This book was released on 2010. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Preface by Publisher FREDERICKA A. JACKS: "COMMON BOUNDARY includes many varieties of immigration stories. A culture is a country's language, its customs, and the collective thinking or attitude of the people . . . The shifting attitude . . . experienced over . . . English acquisition . . . represents a paradox: on the one hand, there is an attempt to accommodate someone from another country; on the other hand, the immigrant person is always perceived as something foreign. There's a common boundary - being part of and yet being apart from others." From the Foreword by JASON DUBOW: ". . . this book is really an anthology of anthologies: a collection of stories in which the old inextricably blends with the new, in which the tensions between what has been lost and what can be gained are grappled with (but, inevitably, not resolved), and in which the human capacity to imagine a future and make it real (more or less) is explored from a variety of different perspectives. Here's the essential question: now that I am no longer there but here, Who am I? The answers, the stories - various, contingent, authentic - have made me, in a Whitman-esque sense, 'larger, ' and they will you too. And so, when you're done reading, ask yourself: Who now am I?"
