Kendra and her boyfriend are sharing the same girl. This tale chronicles the lives of several women who navigate life in silence. They find strength in one another, dealing with drug addiction, assault, personality disorders, closeted behavior, hopelessness and denial. A society forged on the edge of the mainstream; right at the very thin line between love and hate, with no rules on the inside, and minimal intrusion from the outside. Anything might happen over the period of a weekend that could change a woman's life, legacy or virtue.

It's 1855, but not as we know it. The schism between the One True French Catholic Church and the heretical Italian Catholic Church has stoked three centuries of conflict, imploding the dream of European ascendancy. Thousands flee the Spanish Inquisition for havens in Germany, France, Britain and the colonies of the New World. The face and character of London has been indelibly altered by generations of refugees. Tasked with keeping order and preserving the ecumenical vision of the Holy French Catholic Church in the face of throngs clamoring for traditional British values, the London police find themselves in an awkward position. And nobody is quite sure how to deal with the technological innovation of animates: mindless laborers crafted from the body parts of the dead. A murderous plot with far-reaching implications casts a city torn between renaissance and tyranny as the unwitting catalyst for unspeakable global calamity. The fate of this world lies, as it often does, in the hands of a motley and disparate crew brought together by inglorious serendipity. Ironworks and iron fists will take London, and the Old World with it, to the cutting edge of a treacherous new century.

Twenty-three-year-old Evelyn Healy is a woman in conflict. She’s been in conflict almost all her life with her father, Mitch Healy, Captain of the charter cruise ship The Prissy Jack, where Evelyn is the first mate. She’s in conflict with her ex-boyfriend, Kyle Madsen, who has reappeared on board with a new girlfriend after abandoning Evelyn in New Zealand eight months before, leaving her with a broken heart and a shattered ego. She’s in conflict because of the growing attraction between her and handsome young Siddharth Patel, for whom The Prissy Jack’s latest charter was hired for a search for a bride cruise by his wealthy Indian family. But most of all, Evelyn Healy is in conflict with herself—as she tries to reconcile the tensions between loyalty, family, her own sense of self and love. Will she be able to overcome the pressure or will she fall hard?

This is a comprehensive collection of authentic recipes, some 500 in all, for drinks and dishes that more than 150 American authors since the late 18th century are known to have enjoyed. The book should appeal to amateur chefs and so-called "foodies" who may want to test some of the recipes in their kitchens; to American literature instructors and scholars who may use it as a teaching tool; and general readers who will read it for pleasure. In effect, this is a celebrity cookbook to which many literary celebrities, living and dead, have contributed, among them Harriet Beecher Stowe, Rudolfo Anaya, Denise Chavez, Emily Dickinson, William Faulkner, Harlan Ellison, Ursula Le Guin, Benjamin Franklin, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Jack London, Allen Ginsberg, Lafcadio Hearn, Ernest Hemingway, Jack Kerouac, Elmore Leonard, Bobbie Ann Mason, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Leslie Marmon Silko, Gertrude Stein, Onoto Watanna, Eudora Welty, Walt Whitman, and Gerald Vizenor.
