How we turn to and from opportunity as we brace our daily moments with choice. Engaging, fresh, and unforgettable, <i>Loose Threads</i> is about the journey to authenticity and the redemptive power of genuine passion. The novel opens in Washington DC and moves into American embassies around the world in the nineteen-eighties, a time when diplomacy bordered terrorism, and a young diplomat's future was limited only by ambition. <i>Loose Threads</i> is the story of Ellen d'Ullay, one woman's search for herself across three decades of life. Fast-paced and surprising, with a penchant for paradox and hidden truth, the hearts and minds of Burgess' characters are s interesting as the landscapes we find them in. Burgess' novel eloquently probes the human search for meaning, lasting love, and roots in an unpredictable world. 3285618 book 1998 Loose Threads total:5|5:4|4:1| 5 24 16 2 0 0 false false Fri Apr 18 09:19:56 -0700 2008 Fri Apr 18 09:26:38 -0700 2008 www.glendaburgessbooks.com to read an excerpt and learn more about this early novel by the author, updated and released in a new edition for 2008.]]> 5 0 false false Fri Nov 30 13:38:09 -0800 2007 Fri Nov 30 13:38:42 -0800 2007 4 0 false false Mon Jul 13 15:52:29 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 13 15:52:29 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jan 31 06:51:36 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 31 06:51:36 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Nov 06 16:47:51 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 06 16:47:51 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Fri Sep 12 14:18:30 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 12 14:18:30 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Sep 12 14:04:31 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 12 14:04:31 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Sep 11 14:40:41 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 11 14:40:41 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Fri Jul 11 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 21 13:16:09 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 21 13:18:39 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Jul 22 21:52:13 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 22 21:52:13 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sun Jun 29 09:33:51 -0700 2008 Sun Jul 27 20:54:25 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Apr 27 17:34:59 -0700 2008 Sun Apr 27 17:34:59 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Apr 27 17:34:47 -0700 2008 Sun Apr 27 17:34:47 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Dec 01 13:33:27 -0800 2007 Sat Dec 01 13:33:30 -0800 2007 5 0 false false Mon Oct 01 21:15:44 -0700 2007 Mon Oct 01 21:15:57 -0700 2007 0 0 true false Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 1964 Fri Sep 14 08:08:56 -0700 2007 Fri Sep 14 08:09:08 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=380712
