FAR: A NOVEL
Lancelotta, Victoria
2003 1160224 From Booklist Lancelotta is a razor's-edge writer with an existential streak and a fascination with the dichotomies of being. Celebrated for her short stories, she stays sharp in her debut novel in which a sultry and cryptic 30-year-old Baltimore woman struggles to understand what it is that she wants, why she doesn't want what most women seem to, and why her self-sufficiency so angers others. Writing with the surgical precision, dark sexuality, and psychological suspense of Annie Ernaux, Joan Didion, and Siri Hustvedt, Lancelotta spotlights transforming moments in Martha's spare life, from her teenage exploits with the local toughs to her Last Tango in Paris-like affair with Edward to her chilly relationships with her complicated mother and her beautiful younger sister (who ends up with Edward) to her abrupt move to a small town in Virginia to run a jewelry store. There Lancelotta adroitly conjures a nightmarish realm of injured souls capable of neurotic and vicious behavior as she traces the thin line between loneliness and aloneness, alienation and independence. Donna Seaman Copyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved Product Description: A dark, unsettling novel about a woman whose reluctance to adopt traditional female roles of marriage and motherhood results in a painful alienation from her Italian-American family and community. Written with Lancelotta's characteristic passion and wit, Far is a haunting exploration of what it means for a woman to be alone in her family, her house and her body, even as she is hemmed in by them. Martha is single, in her early 30s, and has lived in Baltimore all her life. But she is late to do what they all expect her to do--marry and have children--and is instead involved with Edward, a man chosen precisely because she believes that he expects none of these things from her . When she begins to suspect otherwise, she accepts a new job in the small-town South. Martha yearns to be free of the sense of having disappointed her family--and just about everyone. But the ache for resolution proves too strong. As Martha discovers a growing intimacy between Edward and her sister, she's forced to take responsibility for her isolation. Published at Twenty Four dollars. Counterpoint Press 1-58243-114-0 / 9781582431147

LOVING A YOUNGER MAN: HOW WOMEN ARE FINDING AND ENJOYING A BETTER RELATIONSHIP
Houston, Victoria
1987 7554 More than half the American women who marry for the second time choose younger men. Based on her own experience and numerous interviews, Houston, happily married to a man nine years her junior, explains why this revolutionary trend is so successful--and rewarding. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly: Houston, promotion director of the publishing house Andrew, McMeel & Parker, is among the rising number of women married to younger men. Divorced at age 35, she chose for her next husband ``Brant,' a man nine years her junior. Their union led Houston to interview 40 couples in similar circumstances (statistics show an increase of 67% in 13 years of older wives/younger husbands.) The personal stories related here are impressive, told by lovers of various backgrounds across the country who chanced criticism. Some women, like Lillian at 72, needed support from friends to accept 57-year-old John's proposal. Ellen, 39, and David, 25, say they now laugh at the gossipand their defensive reactionsabout their ``odd" partnership when they wed. There are many revealing facets to this book on the switch frrm the long-accepted affairs between older men and younger women. NTC Publishing Group 0-8092-4730-5 / 9780809247301

NO APPARENT DANGER: THE TRUE STORY OF VOLCANIC DISASTER AT GALERAS AND NEVADO DEL RUIZ
Bruce, Victoria
2001 7065 This compelling blow-by-blow account of two related volcano tragedies by science journalist Victoria Bruce is the result of extensive research and interviews. The book relates the harrowing confluence of events that led to the death of 23,000 people when an entire village was engulfed in a mud flow and the later deaths of scientists studying Galeras. FROM THE PUBLISHER "On January 14, 1993, a team of scientists descended into the crater of Galeras, a restless Andean volcano in southern Colombia, for a day of field research. As the group slowly moved across the rocky moonscape of the caldera near the heart of the volcano, Galeras erupted, its crater exploding in a barrage of burning rocks and glowing shrapnel. Nine men died instantly, their bodies torn apart by the blast." "Detailing the turbulent history of Columbia and the geology of its snow-peaked volcanoes, Victoria Bruce weaves together the stories of the heroes, victims, survivors, and bystanders, evoking what it means to live in the shadow of a volcano, a hair's-breadth away from unthinkable natural calamity, and shows how clashing cultures and scientific arrogance resulted in tragic and unnecessary loss of life."--BOOK JACKET. FROM THE CRITICS Discover Magazine Harrowing..offers rich insight into the untidy workings of volcanologists and science in general. Publishers Weekly The fight currently raging within the volcanological community, sketched by the discrepancies between Bruce's work and Stanley Williams and Fen Montaigne's Surviving Galeras (reviewed below), concerns what is known about predicting eruptions, and particularly about Galeras when it blew, and why nine people died in that eruption (see PW, Book News, Feb. 12). In Bruce's harrowing depiction of the 1985 Nevado del Ruiz eruption, which killed 23,000 people, scientists and survivors describe bureaucratic foolishness, scientific discovery and human strife. In her presentation of the 1993 eruption of Galeras, another Colombian volcano, numerous interviews illuminate further human folly, and particularly Williams's pariah status among geologists. Seismologist Bernard Chouet's testimony discredits Williams's assertion that there was no warning of the eruption. Previously, Chouet had successfully predicted two eruptions from seismographic patterns also visible when Galeras erupted. While Williams says this was never brought to his attention, Bruce notes that leading a team into an active volcano without checking available data hardly seems responsible scientific practice. Chouet claims he presented his prediction technique, with Williams present, in 1991. Further, expedition members contend that, despite Galeras's signs of activity, Williams ignored advice to shorten the visit. One survivor says Williams took no safety precautions and mocked his colleagues who wore hard hats. Scientist and journalist Bruce traces the fascinating recent history of Colombian volcanoes and the scientific community's politics, wherein intellectual property generates fame and near-fortune, in an insightful, spellbinding account. Photos and illus. (Apr. 2) Forecast: Bruce's 11-city tour, participation in Columbia University's Earth Science Colloquium in March and the much-publicized Galeras debacle promise big sales. Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information. Library Journal In 1993, a Colombian volcano named Galeras erupted, killing six scientists and three tourists inside its rim and severely injuring the expedition's leader, eminent vulcanalogist Williams. Could this tragedy have been avoided? Could the eruption have been predicted? Two new books debate those questions from opposite ends of the spectrum. Williams offers a firsthand account of the disaster, which traumatized him physically and psychologically, while Bruce, a science writer with a master's degree in geology, provides an investigative journalist HarperCollins Publishers 0060199202 / 9780060199203

Questions from Earth, Answers from Heaven: A Psychic Intuitive's Discussion of Life, Death, and What Awaits Us Beyond
George, Victoria St.
1999 10018519 According to Margolis, the five reasons to use your own intuition are: 1) Intuition helps us prepare for the future and eliminate worry. 2) Intuition allows us to help others, especially our loved ones. 3) Intuition lets us know when we're in sync with the universe. 4) Intuition teaches us to trust our own inner wisdom. And, 5) Intuition helps us to grow and develop as souls. If this sounds like reason enough for you, Questions from Earth will help you tune into answers from heaven to your most heartfelt queries. A veteran of talk shows who has been interviewed by Barbara Walters, Sally Jesse Raphael and Geraldo Rivera, among others, Margolis has been giving psychic readings for 25 years. Here she provides examples of her psychic successes along with encouragement to those seeking to tap into their own intuition and to make contact with deceased loved ones. Part guide to the spirit world, part psychic cheerleader, Margolis nevertheless offers down-to-earth suggestions for creating health and happiness by maintaining a positive attitude, avoiding negative persons and situations, making informed decisions and taking charge of one's life. Stating that "Life is a school and we've been put here to learn certain lessons," Margolis urges readers to use their experiences to lead them to their soul mates and to satisfying careers and healing. If her involvement in cases like Dean Paul Martin's disappearance and various police investigations has catapulted her into the limelight (and she clearly uses these examples as proof of her psychic abilities), Margolis also focuses on ways in which individuals without any obvious psychic gifts can become attuned to subtle physical, mental and emotional warning signs of trouble. Indeed, the book is so rooted in common sense that it reads more like a self-help book than like some titles that depend on much bolder claims about the psychic abilities of an author.

ROMANTIC COUNTRY STYLE: CREATING THE ENGLISH COUNTRY LOOK IN YOUR HOME
Magazine, From the Editors of Victoria
2001 11993 The idea of English country style may conjure many images -- from cottages snug in flower-strewn gardens to rustic homes furnished with all the signs of peaceful country life to grander houses presiding over rolling vistas of fields and meadows. What all these visions share is the image of the country retreat as a romantic rural idyll. This is why we find English country decorating style to be so attractive -- and so romantic. This book shows how the look can be achieved by anyone with a desire to create a charming and intimate country home. This style has evolved slowly over the centuries and continues to do so, refined and adapted according to practical and decorative considerations. And its great advantage is that it can work as well in a small apartment as in a large country house. In this book you will find classic kitchens, relaxed family living rooms, cozy bedrooms with quilted comforters, cool summer retreats draped with muslin, country-style gardens, ideas for outdoor living, and much more. Produced in association with Victoria magazine, Romantic Country Style shows how to create and enjoy the essence of English country style in your home. Introduced in 1987 and enjoyed by four million readers every month, Victoria magazine devotes its articles to fashion, home, and cooking, including beautiful features on home decorating and style.
