    Book Description "HER BEST BOOK SO FAR....[It is] one of the most literate, intelligent and powerful novels I have ever read."
    Eugenia Thornton
    The Cleveland Plain Dealer
    Professor Jane Clifford is in her early thirties, smart, and attractive. A popular teacher at a midwestern college, she appears to be going somewhere. But Jane knows better. After a lifetime habit of looking to books for the answers to life's mysteries, she seems to be finding only more questions. Then her beloved grandmother suddenly dies, and Jane returns home for the funeral, where she is faced with the little dramas and fictions of both the past she has lived and the past she has only been told about. In the midst of it all, she is considering breaking off a long-term, long-distance affair, but like the family stories she tries to make sense of, she cannot seem to find a reason to claim a life of her own.... "PROVOCATIVE...The Odd Woman is an ambitious and intricately developed novel....One of the most realistic, intelligent and skillful character studies of a contemporary woman to date....Godwin is an extraordinarily good writer....She is a shrewd observer of human sensibilities and shortcomingsparticularly those of womenand she explores them in depth with sensitivity, wit and an uncanny eye for the truth."

    Unfinished Desires: A Novel

    by Gail Godwin Set in a small town in the mountains of North Carolina, Unfinished Desires is a complex and deeply affecting story of friendship, loyalty, redemption, and memory. The ninth grade class of Mount St. Gabriels, an all girls Catholic School, is strong willed (some might say "notorious"). Leading the pack is the unforgettable Tildy Stratton, the undisputed queen bee of the class, who quickly befriends Chloe Starnes, a day student recently taken in by her uncle following her young mother's mysterious death... New: A Sorrowful Woman has been made into a short film.

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Gail Kathleen Godwin (born June 18, 1937 ) is an American novelist and short story writer. She has published one non-fiction work, two collections of short stories, and eleven novels, three of which have been nominated for the National Book Award and five of which have made the New York Times Bestseller List. Godwin was born in Birmingham, Alabama but raised in Asheville, North Carolina by her divorced mother and grandmother.

She worked briefly as a reporter for the Miami Herald and married a Herald photographer named Douglas Kennedy. After the job and the marriage finished (by firing and by divorce, respectively), she worked as waitress back home in North Carolina to save money to travel to Europe. In the early 1960s, Godwin worked for the U.S. Travel Service at the U.S. Embassy in London

    information St. Hilda was the 7th century Abbess who founded the Monastery of Whitby. Under her wise rule, it became the most celebrated religious house and center of learning in Northeast England. Several of her charges became bishops and abbesses, and it was through her guidance that Caedmon, a humble farm laborer on the monastic estate, became known to us as the first English poet. The Other Voice presents a scenario of how Hilda might have brought this to pass. This dramatic work calls for a cast of four who speak and sing. Hilda of Whitby is a Mezzo-soprano, the princess Elfleda is a lyric Soprano, Rolf the Reeve is a Baritone and Caedmon is a light Tenor. The accompaniment may be played on the organ, on a piano, or a synthesizer. The chorus in the final scene is optional. It's an accessible work, scenery needs are minimal, and yet it will be a rewarding production for your audience. ISBN 0-9622553-7-8

    Description
    Every evening at five o’clock, Christina and Rudy began the ritual commonly known as Happy Hour, sharing drinks along with a love of language and music (she is an author, he a composer, after all), a delight in intense conversation, a fascination with popes, and nearly thirty years of life together. Now, seven months after Rudy’s unexpected death, Christina reflects on their vibrant bond—with all its quirks, habits, and unguarded moments—as well as her passionate sorrow and her attempts to reposition herself and her new place in the very real world they shared.
    Customer Reviews
    A beautiful and beautifully written little gem I can't say more than the previous reviews have said. This is one of those books that I would force myself to lay aside for a little while just so I wouldn't finish it too quickly. In the hands of numerous other writers, it would have come across as sentimental glop, but this was obviously the story of a woman who has lost her soul partner, lover and friend and there is nothing sentimental about it - just true.
