In this magical story of her childhood in a world so different from our own, Mireille Marokvia blurs the distinction between the real and the imagined to create a moving account of how a young woman gives voice to her vision and an aging woman addresses the gentle ghosts that haunt her memories. Immortelles is an elegy to a lost world and a testimony to the splendor of childhood -- even a childhood touched by death.

New in Paper French beading is a simple yet lovely art, beautifully described here and illustrated in color with more than 70 close-up, how-to photos that show the intracacies of growing a garden of 30 flowers with delicate seed beads. Forty additional illustrations present the exact bead placement for each particular flower part. Just string the beads on wires and bend them into realistic, three-dimensional shapes; a helpful introductory section covers all the basics. You can indulge your creative passion almost anywhere--and the nicest thing is, they last forever. Construct a budding dogwood branch, frame a mirror with wisteria blooms, or make a holiday wreath of holly and gold-tipped pinecones. A gallery of vintage pieces illustrates the rich history of the craft.
