A survivor of Europe's 20th-century nightmares now teaches art at a regional college where, under a relentless sun and beside a swimming pool, the narrator of THE MERMAID AT THE AMERICANA ARMS MOTEL recalls a lifetime of frustrated pursuits as an artist in the company of that century's most celebrated painters. To his fury and despair, he becomes entangled in a conflict he is certain will compromise the integrity of his art. Although he is determined to resist, his resistance has its price.

Book excerpt: A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR • "Sublime." —New York Times Book Review "Brilliantly sharp, funny, and thought-provoking, the gripping story of a woman trying to find her way in our chaotic world." —Madeline Miller, bestselling author of Circe Broke English teacher Penelope Schleeman is as surprised as anyone when her feminist, eco-warrior novel American Mermaid becomes a best-seller. But when Hollywood insists she convert her fierce, androgynous protagonist into to a teen sex object in a clamshell bra, strange things start to happen. Is Penelope losing her mind, or has her fictional mermaid come to life, enacting revenge against society’s limited view of what a woman can and should be? American Mermaid follows a young woman braving the casual slights and cruel calculations of a winner-take-all society and discovering a beating heart in her own fiction: a new kind of hero who fights to keep her voice and choose her place. A hilarious story about deep things, American Mermaid asks how far we’ll go to protect the parts of ourselves that are not for sale.

Book Synopsis The Time of Quarantine by : Katharine Haake

Download or read book The Time of Quarantine written by Katharine Haake. This book was released on 2011. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. Lyrical, provocative, and deeply haunting, THE TIME OF QUARANTINE, takes us into a near-distant future of post-human environmental collapse to chronicle the tale of a boy raised alone in the woods by computers at the end of the world--or is it? As the sole surviving member of an ill-fated Intentional Community designed to escape world's end plagues and convinced he is alone on earth, the boy--now a man--is determined to carry out the final wishes of his father and fulfill his stoic duties of merely being human. But when he discovers, as if by accident, that everything he's always imagined to be true is, instead, a lie, he decides to leave the safety of his little spinning plot of spaceship earth and go back into the world to find out what comes next.
