| 520 | 0 | |a "In "Beautiful Lady of the Snow, " young Annabelle turns to a host of family pets to combat the alienation she feels caught between her distracted mother and ailing grandfather; in "Night Owls, " a young college student's crush on her acting partner is complicated by the bloodlust of being half-vampire; in "Cancer Poems, " a dying woman turns to a poetry workshop to make sense of her terminal diagnosis and final days; in "Intuition, " a young girl's sexual forays bring her closer to her best friend's father; and in the collection's title story, a photographer looks back to his youth spent as a young illusionist under the big tent and his obsessive affair with the carnival owner's wife. Distracted parents, first love, the twin forces of alienation and isolation: the characters in The Palace of Illusions all must contend with these challenges, trafficking in the fault lines between the real and the imaginary, often in a world not of their making."--From publisher's website. | |
