Book excerpt: Hailed as "the most gifted American novelist of his generation" (Boston Globe), David Payne introduces us to Ransom Hill, a big-hearted, wild-man lead singer of a legendary indie rock group, who has come to South Carolina determined to save his marriage, his family, and himself. But back at Wando Passo, his wife's inherited family estate, things don't proceed according to plan. There's another man in the picture, and Ran's discovery of a mysterious relic from slave times transports him—and the reader—back into the story of another romantic triangle at Wando Passo that erupted violently at the height of the Civil War. Will the present repeat the past? Filled with fast-paced adventure, lyrical writing, wicked humor, and unforgettable characters, David Payne's Back to Wando Passo propels the two love stories, linked by place through time, to a simultaneous crescendo of betrayal, revenge, and redemption.

Download or read book Wando Passo written by David Payne. This book was released on 2007. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Envoûtante, foisonnante, Wando Passo est une œuvre stupéfiante d'imagination et de profondeur, dont la magistrale construction croise deux époques reliées par un subtil jeu de correspondances. Amour, racisme, inceste, jalousie, vengeance, un roman puissant, imprégné de la sensualité tourmentée du vieux Sud, sur l'esclavage et la liberté. Après une douloureuse séparation qui l'a laissé à la dérive, Ransom Hill, ex-gloire du rock, est de retour à Wando Passo, l'ancienne plantation familiale, pour une ultime tentative de réconciliation avec Claire, sa femme, qu'il n'a jamais cessé d'aimer. Mais Claire a changé, elle est distante, rêveuse, et Ransom sent qu'elle s'éloigne inexorablement. Ses soupçons se portent sur Marcel, l'ancien batteur du groupe. Obsédé par un sentiment de trahison, saisi par l'inquiétante étrangeté qui règne sur Wando Passo, Ransom perd pied. La découverte d'un chaudron brûlant rempli d'objets singuliers va le plonger dans l'histoire de Wando Passo : une histoire marquée par le scandale et la tragédie vécus par la famille DeLay à l'aube de la guerre de Sécession. Cent quarante ans plus tard, l'histoire pourrait bien se répéter...

Book Synopsis The South Carolina Rice Plantation as Revealed in the Papers of Robert F. W. Allston by : Robert Francis Withers Allston

Download or read book The South Carolina Rice Plantation as Revealed in the Papers of Robert F. W. Allston written by Robert Francis Withers Allston. This book was released on 2004. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reissue of The South Carolina Rice Plantation as Revealed in the Papers of Robert F.W. Allston makes available for a new generation of readers a firsthand look at one of South Carolinas most influential antebellum dynasties and the institutions of slavery and plantation agriculture upon which it was built. Often cited by historians, Robert F.W. Allstons letters, speeches, receipts, and ledger entries chronicle both the heyday of the rice industry and its precipitate crash during the Civil War. As Daniel C. Littlefield underscores in his introduction to the new edition, these papers are significant not only because of Allstons position at the apex of planter society but also because his views represented those of the rice planter elite.
