Kip and Brice were best friends, born on the same day in 1944 in Los Alamos, New Mexico, the most secret place on earth. Sons of men who engineered the atom bomb, they play macabre games as children, tempting the fate that looms over their closed community. As they come of age in the mid-60s, Brice is drawn into antiwar activism, while Kip disappears into Vietnam and ultimately into the secret war in Laos-leaving Brice to marry Jessica, the woman they both love. Twenty-five years later, Kip returns, a ghost soldier come, perhaps, to reclaim what was lost.

Ariel's search will lead her from the holy village of Chimayó, New Mexico, to Los Alamos and the pueblo valley of Nambé, and ultimately across the restricted badlands of the White Sands proving grounds. Morrow conjures an array of dynamic, strong- willed individualists whose own distinct quests for home converge with Ariel's. Audaciously weaving social with magic realism, he offers a rhapsodic portrait of how faith, family, and self-identity are inscribed in each of us, uneasy heritages it is our burden to discover and embrace.]]> 25383 3.97 192 26 2002 6639929 0941964698 9780941964692 1 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1257931497m/6639929.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1257931497s/6639929.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6639929-conjunctions 5.00 5 Conjunctions has been known for introducing unlikely literary juxtapositions. Issue 53 takes such mergers as its theme, examining the hybrids that are created when fiction and poetry enter the supposedly objective realm of history. Many questions are raised by the pairings presented: is it possible, for instance, that the narrative artist can forge a heightened vision of what was, or what might have been, that becomes more compelling, more telling, than the historian's account? What does it mean when an historical incident becomes myth, and that myth influences history? The instigators of these queries are a stellar selection of voices from contemporary fiction, poetry and drama, including Robert Coover, Nathaniel Mackey, Peter Gizzi, Elizabeth Robinson, William H. Gass, Can Xue, Howard Norman and Paul West. They share a knack for conjuring historical periods, events and characters in a blur of fact, fiction and a visionary hybrid of the two.]]> 25383 3.97 192 26 2009 3238183 0941964663 9780941964661 2 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3238183.Conjunctions_50_Fifty_Contemporary_Writers 4.40 5 Harper's Readings selections.

However pastoral this start may seem, in a few short paragraphs, Morrow succeeds in shattering the peace as he sets up the central mystery of the book: an unknown trespasser conducts a campaign of terror against the inhabitants of a lonely farm somewhere in "the western mountains." Loud music blares in the middle of the night, phone lines are cut, an effigy hangs from an ash tree, a door is stolen--over the course of several months these and other random acts of harassment begin to wear on Henry and Edmé Fulton. Eventually, Edmé's nephew, Grant, arrives from Rome to help unravel the truth behind these increasingly disturbing events. Unfortunately , the mystery behind Giovanni's Gift begins to unravel for the reader long before the characters figure it out.]]> 25383 3.97 192 26 1997 1913809 0941964612 9780941964616 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1190242754m/1913809.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1190242754s/1913809.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1913809.Conjunctions_45_Secret_Lives_Of_Children 4.25 4 25383 3.97 192 26 2005
