This book can be read forwards or backwards, either from A to Z or from Z to A; thus you will realize that the micro world described in this text is a wheel of fortune and a magical sphere. Fortune is changeable and magic sometimes reverses its spells against us. In whatever way you choose to read these pages, you will find more questions than answers concerning the human zoo described within. The unnatural environment of the cities shows us that men and women are capable of the most admirable, as well as the most horrible behaviours. Here you will find an example of how, under both predictable and unpredictable circumstances, the love of a woman can transform itself into hatred, leading her to commit unthinkable actions.

First in the historical mystery series featuring a sophisticated sleuth in Jazz Age Greenwich Village! Everyone who’s anyone in 1920s New York knows Bedford Green. Once a merciless gossip columnist, he has given up the life of sleaze and secrets and decamped for the Village—to open a gritty little art gallery showcasing the most shocking European artists imaginable. The gallery is a money pit, and Green is in debt to some of the roughest loan sharks south of 14th Street, but that doesn’t stop him from looking fabulous or having a good time. He’s happy hanging around Manhattan society—at least until his assistant starts to cry. Sloane is a modern woman, a flapper with a razor-sharp bob and a bulletproof heart, but she’s convinced that her friend Polly Swanscott is in danger. From the speakeasies of the Village to the finest cafes in Paris, Green will do his best to save Polly—and he’ll do it with a cocktail in hand . . . The Weeping Woman is the first book in the Bedford Green Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Fiction. Alma Luz Villanueva's collection of short stories, WEEPING WOMAN: LA LLORONA AND OTHER STORIES, presents a vision as dangerous and as compelling as a solar eclipse. Readers of these stories may find Villanueva's world very disturbing, torn between the instinct to look tragedy in the face and the need to turn away. The characters in WEEPING WOMAN live in an environment ravaged by violence, racism, and sexism, all forces that distort and, in some cases, destroy. Villanueva's vision is not entirely pessimistic, however. Through their voices and their actions, these characters reveal that they do possess the strength and spirituality to triumph.

Whiteson explores a controversial topic -- incest. The novel is set in Santa Monica, California, then moves on to Spain and then into France. It is told as a fictional memoir, written by Joel Bajamonde when he is an adult. It chronicles Joels total surrender to his Mother, Leila, and her extraordinary erotic energies and unfulfilled emotional needs. Joels father, Max, is a paraplegic, injured in an automobile accident when Joel is ten and when Max, an architect is offered a job up north, the bizarre relationship between Mother and son begins. Joels life becomes more complex when he takes up with a Rory, a fellow student and, quite abruptly, Leila moves off to France where she was born. After graduating from college, Joel travels to Granada to study Spanish, Rory follows him, and then urges him to seek out and confront his mother in Paris. He does so -- and again becomes entangled in his mothers mysterious and incestuous powers! This is an intensely personal and erotic tale of a mother and her son -- and their bizarre yet mysterious relationship.

Merging biography, memoir, and cultural history, this compelling book, a bestseller in France, traces the life of Dora Maar (1907–1997) through a serendipitous encounter with the artist’s address book. In search of a replacement for his lost Hermès agenda, Brigitte Benkemoun’s husband buys a vintage diary on eBay. When it arrives, she opens it and finds inside private notes dating back to 1951—twenty pages of phone numbers and addresses for Balthus, Brassaï, André Breton, Jean Cocteau, Paul Éluard, Leonor Fini, Jacqueline Lamba, and other artistic luminaries of the European avant-garde. After realizing that the address book belonged to Dora Maar—Picasso’s famous “Weeping Woman” and a brilliant artist in her own right—Benkemoun embarks on a two-year voyage of discovery to learn more about this provocative, passionate, and enigmatic woman, and the role that each of these figures played in her life. Longlisted for the prestigious literary award Prix Renaudot, Finding Dora Maar is a fascinating and breathtaking portrait of the artist. “Beautifully written and fascinating.”—Paris Match “One of the happy surprises of the end of the literary season.”—Livres Hebdo “A highly moving portrait of the artist.”—Elle (France) This book received support from the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Cultural Services of the French Embassy in the United States through their publishing assistance program.

Spanish speakers around the world for generations have told stories of La Llorona, "the weeping woman," and the many versions of this legendary phantom woman vary from one region to the next. In this book of fifty-six stories shared by people from the American Southwest as well as south of the border, there are dozens of versions of this ghostly specter that range from a terrifying skeletal creature with blood dripping from its eyes to a baby with fangs wrapped in a quilt -- but no matter what she looks like, she nearly always manages to terrorize her wayward victims into changing their ways.
