You'd be surprised at what gets through when everything else is taken away. Abbie Jowett always has every detail perfectly planned out, including her husband's upcoming surprise fiftieth birthday party. But when he surprises her instead with news that he's leaving, she feels her life unraveling. Already distressed by her son Bobby's determination to take a gap year in Europe in addition to her father's failing health, Abbie is immobilized by grief. Bobby Jowett has dared to take a gap year to really think about his future. His first stop is volunteering at a refugee center in Austria where he meets a beautiful Iranian girl named Rasa. For idealistic Bobby, it is love at first sight. On the spur of the moment, he invites her to join him in hiking the famed French Camino. But his mother, out of desperation, has also chosen to follow him to France. Caroline Lefort, a young photojournalist, is writing an article about pilgrims on the Camino. However, she has been like a wandering pilgrim herself for the past ten years, having abandoned her family after a devastating event. As the lives of these people intersect, they find that the Camino strips them bare, calling each one into deep soul-searching. Against all odds, can they find themselves again?
I HELD THE BALL GENTLY, AS IF IT WERE A SMALL BIRD AND I WAS FEELING FOR ITS TINY, BEATING HEART.
Laz Weathers wants out of Jet City, the trailer park in Seattle where he lives. When he gets an offer to
move in with a host family and pitch for a high-profile high school baseball team, he knows it is his last
chance to impress major-league scouts and start down the road to becoming a league player.
But playing for the rich kids across town would mean leaving behind not only his mother, but also
his brother, Antonio, who is on the verge of being sucked into the black hole that is Jet Citys drug
world. How can Laz choose between being the star pitcher he has always dreamed of becoming and the
team player his family needs?
Warren, Spencer, and Eric are childhood friends. Disillusioned with freshman year
of college and determined to escape from their mundane Middle-American existences,
the three hatch a plan to steal millions of dollars worth of artwork and rare manuscripts
from a university museum.
The story that unfolds is a gripping adventure of teenage rebellion, from pageturning meetings with black-market art dealers in Amsterdam, to the opulent galleries
of Christies auction house in Rockefeller Center. American Animals ushers the reader
along a gut-wrenching ride of adolescent self-destruction, providing a front-row seat
to the inception, planning, and execution of the heist, while offering a rare glimpse
into the evolution of a crimeall narrated by one of the perpetrators in a darkly
comic, action-packed, true-crime caper.
