"One of Sweden's greatest classics, this moving novel weaves the tale of the beautiful but sexless androgyne Tintomara, with whom both sexes fall in love, around the assassination of the 'Theatre King' Gustav III on the stage of his own opera house at a masked ball in 1792. Tintomara too comes to a tragic end in what was to have been merely a melodramatic entertainment for the court. But not before s/he causes all sorts of disastrous complications and confusion."--Page 4 of cover.

As archaeologists recover the lost treasures of Alexandria, the modern world is marveling at the latter-day glory of ancient Egypt and the Greeks who ruled it from the ascension of Ptolemy I in 306 B.C. to the death of Cleopatra the Great in 30 B.C. The abundance and magnificence of royal sculptures from this period testify to the power of the Ptolemaic dynasty and its influence on Egyptian artistic traditions that even then were more than two thousand years old. In this book, Paul Edmund Stanwick undertakes the first complete study of Egyptian-style portraits of the Ptolemies. Examining one hundred and fifty sculptures from the vantage points of literary evidence, archaeology, history, religion, and stylistic development, he fully explores how they meld Egyptian and Greek cultural traditions and evoke surrounding social developments and political events. To do this, he develops a "visual vocabulary" for reading royal portraiture and discusses how the portraits helped legitimate the Ptolemies and advance their ideology. Stanwick also sheds new light on the chronology of the sculptures, giving dates to many previously undated ones and showing that others belong outside the Ptolemaic period.

When licensed cosmetologist turned publisher's rep Kathy Patrick lost her job due to industry cutbacks, she wasn't deterred. One year later, she opened Beauty and the Book, the world's only combination beauty salon/bookstore. Soon after, she founded The Pulpwood Queens of East Texas -- a reading group that dared to ask the question, "Does a book club have to be snobby to be serious?" The idea spread like wildfire. Now there are about 70 chapters nationwide. The overriding rule -- aside from wearing the club's official tiara, hot pink, and leopard print outfits -- is that the groups must have fun. The club's mission: To get America reading. THE PULPWOOD QUEENS' TIARA-WEARING, BOOK- SHARING GUIDE TO LIFE celebrates female friendship, sisterhood, and the transformative power of reading. It includes life principles and motivational anecdotes, hilarious and heart-warming stories of friendships among the Queens, and stories from Kathy about the books that have inspired her throughout her life, complete with personalized suggested book lists.

"This is not the tale of the knight in shining armour who saved the beautiful princess. This is the tale of the princess who saved her kingdom." Once upon a time, there was a kingdom in a land far, far away. Five hundred years previously, it had been cursed with a never-ending winter. Its people were told that the wintry landscape and freezing temperatures were perfect. Anyone who questioned the kingdom was sentenced to death by the king and queen. Little did they know that their own daughter, Princess Neva, was questioning the kingdom's regime. When Neva is lured into the forest one day and falls into a lake, everything changes. She meets the Snow Queen - the very person who put the curse on the kingdom - who gives her clues on how to break it. But what if Neva has to pay a terrible price to save her kingdom from the horrible winter?
