Roses
Author/Actors/Director/etc.: Leila Meacham
Format: Paperback
Publisher: Grand Central Publishing; Reprint edition (2011, Jan 3rd).
Pages: 640
This enthralling stunner, a good old-fashioned read, may herald the overdue return of those delicious doorstop epics from such writers as Barbara Taylor Bradford and Colleen McCullough. Meacham's multigenerational family saga, set in East Texas circa 1914–1985, charts the transformation of Mary Toliver, a wide-eyed 16-year-old heiress, into a calculating cotton plantation queen as hardheaded as Scarlett O'Hara. Her brother, Miles, goes off to WWI, returns home, but then goes back to France to marry Marietta, a French Communist, leaving Mary to deal with their plantation, Somerset, and Darla, their alcoholic mother (who later hangs herself ). Many years later, Mary, now an elderly, terminally ill widow, resolves to defeat the Toliver Curse and regrets selling her soul for Somerset and giving up her true love, Percy Warwick, the father of their secret child, to marry their friend Ollie DuMont, who helped her save Somerset when Percy refused. more

Andy Warhol: Everyone Will Be Famous for 15 Minutes (American Rebels)
Author/Actors/Director/etc.: Edward Willett
Format: Library Binding
Publisher: Enslow Publishers... (2010, Jan 1st).
Pages: 160
Starting with signature quotes printed on each front cover, these titles in the American Rebels series interject words from their famous subjects, and those who knew them, on nearly every page. Those well-integrated voices humanize the larger-than-life figures and create fascinating, well-organized portraits, which, true to each individual’s “rebel” label, include frank (although nonexplicit) mention of substance abuse and sexual relationships. Each title begins with a turning point for both the figure profiled and the reach of his societal influence. Andy Warhol starts with the 1962 L.A. art exhibition at which the artist first presented his iconic paintings of Campbell Soup cans that kicked the pop-art movement into high gear. more
