"This wonderful young writer has penetrated the definitive experience of her generation." -- Nadine Gordimer
"A beautifully patterned novel that possesses the density of the highly ambitious work of art...The book will doubtless come to be seen as both a remarkable novelistic debut and an enduring literary achievement." -- Michiko Kakutani
-- New York Times
"'Machine Dreams', in its wisdom and its compassionate, utterly unsentimental rendering of the American condition, will rank as one of the great books of this decade." -- Robert Stone
"No number of books read or films seen can deaden one to the intimate act of art by which this wonderful young writer has penetrated the definitive experience of her generation." -- Nadine Gordimer

Crazy Ladies
by Michael Lee West
From the author of She Flew the Coop and American Pie comes this lively multigenerational tale of six charming, unforgettable Southern women -- a novel of love and laughter, pain and redemption. Though she was born in Tennessee, Miss Gussie is no country fool. A woman who can handle any situation, she has her hands full with two headstrong daughters who happen to be complete opposites-dour Dorothy and sweet Clancy Jane. Hoping money will heal childhood wounds, Dorothy marries the owner of a five-and-dime, while Clancy Jane gets into a mess of trouble, running off with a randy tomcat who pumps gas at the Esso stand. And then there are Gussie's granddaughters, the smart but plain Violet and fancy-talking Bitsy -- a new generation whose lives will reflect a nation's tumultuous times. From Tennessee to New Orleans, from psychedelic San Francisco to a remote Southwestern desert ranch, this funny, poignant novel spans more than four decades as it vividly recounts the universal loves, sorrows, and joys of women's lives.
Bitter Grounds
by Sandra Benitez
Spanning the years between 1932 and 1977, this beautifully told epic is set in the heart of El Salvador, where coffee plantations are the center of life for rich and poor alike. Following three generations of the Prieto clan and the wealthy family they work for, this is the story of mothers and daughters who live, love, and die for their passions.Epic in scope, richly steeped in history, Benitez's poetic yet unsentimental novel takes you into another time, another place, and into the lives of characters so real they cannot be forgotten.
Fools of Fortune
by William Trevor
Back Bay
by William Martin
Meet the Pratt clan. Driven men. Determined women. Through six turbulent generations, they would peruse a lost Paul Revere treasure. And turn a family secret into an obsession that could destroy them. Here is the novel that launched William Martin's astonishing literary career and became an instant bestseller. From the gift of romance of old Boston to exclusive -- and dangerous -- Back Bay today, this sweeping saga paints an unforgettable portrait of a powerful dynasty beset by the forces of history . . and a heritage of greed, lust, murder, and betrayal.
The Hotel New Hampshire
by John Irving
"The first of my father's illusions was that bears could survive the life lived by human beings, and the second was that human beings could survive a life led in hotels." So says John Berry, son of a hapless dreamer, brother to a cadre of eccentric siblings, and chronicler of the lives lived, the loves experienced, the deaths met, and the myriad strange and wonderful times encountered by the family Berry. Hoteliers, pet-bear owners, friends of Freud (the animal trainer and vaudevillian, that is), and playthings of mad fate, they "dream on" in a funny, sad, outrageous, and moving novel.

NrF/NrFine. Author's sig gold-stamped on f blue boards, gilt titles on white cloth spine. Mail SAMEDAY! ; 352 pages; From Bruce Allen - The Christian Science Monitor (Eastern ed) : What happens to Billy crystallizes the Hampsons' losses and dejections and makes for some of the grimmest and most moving climactic pages to be found anywhere in contemporary fiction. 'Machine Dreams' is as stark and gray as a novel can be, but its effect is anything but depressing, because Phillips's mastery of the details of small-town life conjures up one unforgettable, exhilarating picture after another... The book is about how large, impersonal actions permanently alter ordinary lives. The most interesting of Phillips's devices is the pattern of images affiliated with her title--which refers to the way men and boys love cars, dump trucks and bulldozers, airplanes and spacecraft. Images of flight keep recurring; eventually they're displaced by . ( more information) Offered by BobPrudhomme, Relentless Bookfinder (United States)

Machine Dreams
Phillips, Jayne Anne
New York, NY, U.S.A.: N A L, 1984. Hardcopy and Brodart-wrapped D/J are both good. Slight wear on bottom of D/J. Personal Library sticker on inside of front cover, "The Lady Hanson." Machine Dreams is the story of the Hampsons, a family moving inexorably toward dissolution, often unknowingly, often against their own will, yet always caught in the subtle connections of love. The novel opens with a succession of voices that evoke dramatically the times of which they speak. Jean Hampson's reminiscence to her daughter, Danner, tells of a '30's childhood and a '40's coming of age in small-town Bellington, West Virginia, of birth and death, of the failure of a long marriage. She ends by articulating a bond timeless in its claims and promises: "When I knew I had a daughter, I was so thankful -- like my own mother had come back to me." Mitch Hampson, born ten years into a new century in rural West Virginia, half-orphan, is raised primarily by his young aunt, Bess, who passes on to him a characteristic aloneness. He meets jean in postwar Bellington and marries her three weeks later in the shadow of her mother's terminal illness.. First Edition Stated. Hard Cover. Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Paper-Covered Boards. ( more information) Offered by Chozen Books (United States)
