When CEO Graham Donaldson hires 26-year-old Catherine McBride to work for Intercontinental Minerals, both their lives take an unexpected turn. Consumed with power, ambition, and success, Catherine with her sharp business sense soon becomes indispensable to Intercon's daily operation. Predictably, Graham and Catherine go beyond a mentor relationship, and the situation is complicated by Graham's beautiful and polished wife of 30 years. The authors take the reader behind the scenes of corporate America and although some characters are superficial and the dialogue is trite in places, the novel is fairly entertaining. This book has it allpassion,terrorism, laughter, and heartachebut primarily it is the story of a bright young woman's emotional and professional coming of age.... v angličtine, brožovaná, malý formát, 476 strán , obálka opotrebovaná

The World Below

Spisovatel: Miller Sue, Bloomsbury 2001
Katalogové číslo: E8147

Cath Hubbard, a San Francisco woman in her 50s, returns to her grandmother's small Vermont house after the death of an aunt who left the property to Cath and her brother Lawrence. Cath had lived with her grandparents for a few years in her teens, after her mother's suicide, and now makes her wounded way back, in the wake of a divorce, to sort through her memories of her beloved grandmother, Georgia. This is the standard fare of American literary fiction: a life change prompting a search into the past. What is far less ordinary is Miller's placid, nuanced depiction of her protagonist's emotional journey. None of Cath's feelings can be easily predicted by the reader, but all of them ring true. She finds her grandmother's diary and begins to fill in the stories that Georgia had hinted at over the years. What Cath discovers in her grandmother's journal is a secret that has lost its power to shock; and that very wearing away of taboo adds to the poignancy of Georgia's restricted life. Her story unfolds against a backdrop of Cath's more immediate griefs and concerns and begins to recede as Cath's San Francisco life returns to claim her. Miller's prose appears effortless, but is like the gestures of a magician that conceal how the trick is accomplished. The result is a sage, continually surprising novel about finding peace of mind in a combination of habit, love, and self-determination.... v angličtine, brožovaná, 275 strán
