Beschreibung

Harold Frederic's novel 'The Lawton Girl' is a poignant depiction of the struggles faced by young women in a changing society during the late nineteenth century. The novel is written in a realistic and socially conscious style, portraying the challenges of female characters within the constraints of societal expectations and gender roles. Through its rich character development and vivid narrative, Frederic explores themes of love, ambition, and identity, making it a significant work in the literary context of the time. The author's attention to detail and his ability to capture the complexities of human relationships elevate the novel to a powerful and thought-provoking read. Harold Frederic, a prominent American journalist and novelist, drew inspiration from his own experiences and observations of society to write 'The Lawton Girl.' As a keen observer of human behavior and social dynamics, Frederic infuses his novel with a deep understanding of the emotional and psychological struggles faced by his characters, adding depth and authenticity to the narrative. I highly recommend 'The Lawton Girl' to readers interested in exploring the intersection of gender, society, and personal freedom. Frederic's insightful portrayal of female characters and his exploration of societal norms make this novel a compelling and relevant read for contemporary audiences.

    Gabe wants Alec between the sheets . . . too bad Alec's undercover already . . . 
     
     
     
    Rich kid. Party boy. Gabe is tired of the labels. He's a smart guy, but ever since he got kicked out of grad school, people are only interested in his no-limit credit card and his pierced ears . . . and other places. 
     
     
     
    Tall, dark, and scowling Alec hates Vermont, with its artisanal-freaking-everything and its irritating people. To be fair, most people irritate Alec, including the FBI director who sent him here to investigate a smuggling scheme involving yoga mats. 
     
     
     
    When one of the cutest twinks Alec's ever seen takes an interest, Alec knows there's an ulterior motive. No one with multi-colored hair, piercings, and an ass like that would want boring, serious Alec. The kid must be up to no good. Either way, Alec can't blow his cover. If only he could keep his hands off of Gabe long enough to find out what he's up to . . . 
     
     
     
    Can they ignore their explosive chemistry long enough to foil a smuggling ring? Or will their budding relationship sink faster than a yacht full of contraband?

    Twenty-nine-year-old Rayann Germaine, betrayed by her lover, flees in grief and rage. She meets book store owner Louisa Thatcher, a woman many years her senior, who offers shelter and work . . . and soon, passion, and a loving place in her life. 
     
     
     
    But Rayann encounters challenges to this new love—from friends who question its wisdom, from her mother who disapproves of this liaison with a woman her own contemporary, from Louisa's son who learns for the first time his mother's true sexuality. 
     
     
     
    And there are profound differences between Rayann and Louisa themselves, two women who come from dramatically different places in the spectrum of age and life experience. Their only common ground seems to be the searing attraction that they both try to deny . . .

    'Poignant, humane and uncompromising' —STEPHEN MORRISON-BURKE
    As King Cnut proved, tide and time wait for no human: An AnthropoScene, the first part of this collection, dives into the rising tides of geo-political change, the second, Our Future Is Now Downloading, explores sea-changes of more personal natures. Nathan's debut, Threads, was long-listed for the Polari First Book Prize. _x0003_His follow-up bears all the watermarks of someone who's swum life's emotional spectrum. Short and (bitter)sweet, this is poetry for a mobile generation, poetry for sharing – often humorous, always honest about contemporary human experience, saying more in a few lines than _x0003_politicians say in volumes, it offers an antidote to modern living
