Penelope's Daughter by Laurel Corona Pdf

The award-winning author of The Four Seasons retells The Odyssey from the point of view of Odysseus and Penelope's daughter. With her father Odysseus gone for twenty years, Xanthe barricades herself in her royal chambers to escape the rapacious suitors who would abduct her to gain the throne. Xanthe turns to her loom to weave the adventures of her life, from her upbringing among servants and slaves, to the years spent in hiding with her mother's cousin, Helen of Troy, to the passion of her sexual awakening in the arms of the man she loves. And when a stranger dressed as a beggar appears at the palace, Xanthe wonders who will be the one to decide her future-a suitor she loathes, a brother she cannot respect, or a father who doesn't know she exists...

Killing Penelope by Kimball Converse Pier Pdf

A hauntingly beautiful memoir of humor, grace, gratitude, and failed rescues Killing Penelope is a true story about a girl¿s devotion to her mother, Penelope, a wild and eccentric woman who never intended to have a child, and to her father, Gardiner, a Harvard-educated physician whom the child depended upon to be the steady, stable parent.Penelope did not wear dresses and heels like other mothers of the 1960s. She wore Levi¿s and men¿s shirts, and she held a shotgun with more comfort than she held her baby girl. Penelope loved Gardiner but not enough to give up her Swiss lover, Helene. Kimball was eight when Penelope developed a life-threatening illness, which left her emaciated, drug-addicted, and mentally unstable. When Gardiner abruptly left the family, Penelope gathered her strength and told Kimball they were going to start a new life. Kimball was twelve when they packed up the Porsche, dogs, parakeets, and bags of narcotics, and left the only home she had ever known. Kimball¿s early teen years were frightening and unpredictable as she desperately tried to save Penelope, who succumbed to addiction, depression, and recurring bouts of illness.In this memoir by Kimball Converse Pier, the author gives a beautiful portrayal of her experience of retrieving humor, grace, and gratitude from the rubble of despair and loss.
