I can say that I really enjoyed the story, and it’s obvious to me that she is a magnificent weaver of tales. I can’t offer any insights as to how this book fits into Hoffman’s opus for the reason I stated above. A few years pass and she moves to New York City with her boyfriend, slowly entering the world again, but never able to rid herself of the inner shame of continuing her life while Helene remains locked to machines for basic survival. Plagued by guilt, Shelby falls into a severe depression, using drugs and isolation to protect herself from the suicidal thoughts that she struggles with on a daily basis. Faithful is a coming-of-age tale with a rocky start: At 17, Shelby gets into a serious car accident that puts her best friend Helene onto life support, living in a type of vegetable state. Despite her fame, I’ve never read a book of hers until now. Alice Hoffman has quite a following, in fact one of her books was awarded the prestigious ‘O Book Club’ sticker, and she’s written a ton of stuff since so she’s no stranger to the literary spotlight. The hero of the story could be any one of us, hungry for a different life. Yet his heart remains set on something else, on the pretty girl whose star rises alongside his, their paths crossing and recrossing in a love affair sparked and snuffed out again by the forces that careen their fates along. It follows its nameless hero to the sprawling metropolis where he begins to amass an empire built on the most fluid and increasingly scarce of goods: water. The astonishing and riveting tale of a man's journey from impoverished rural boy to corporate tycoon, How to Get Filthy Rich in Asia steals its shape from the business self-help books devoured by youths all over 'rising Asia'. The unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Mohsin Hamid's How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia, read by the author himself. I'm hooked on the idea of steam from a tea cup making the letter K and a silk thread for Miss Spider to hang from.

Then, a moth's wings become too damp to fly away and Miss Spider: She tries and tries to convince them to come, but beetles, fireflies, bees, ants, butterflies are too timid to try. It's a poem about a spider who hosts a tea party that no one comes too because all the insects are too afraid. My 6 year old daughter insists she is too old for it, but I keep dragging it off the shelf to read anyway. Miss Spider's Tea Party, by David Kirk, is one of my favorite children's books. |
