  It’s time to come home… 
  The Hull family has owned the Gallows Hill Winery for generations. Their wine wins awards. Their business prospers. Their family thrives. People whisper that the curse has awakened once more. 
  The sprawling old house has long been perched on top of a hill overlooking the nearby town, jealously guarding the estate's secrets. 
  It's been more than a decade since Margot Hull last saw her childhood home. She was young enough when she was sent away that she barely remembers its dark passageways and secret corners. But now she's returned to bury her parents and reconnect with the winery that is her family's legacy―and the bloody truth of exactly what lies buried beneath the crumbling estate. Alone in the sprawling, dilapidated building, Margot is forced to come face to face with the horrors of the past―and realize that she may be the next victim of a house that never rests...

  The story is about Zephaniah, a man named after a biblical author who proudly proclaims himself a Cushite in the Old Testament. The author uses italicized words from the Bible, so the reader is made aware of the racial identity of the biblical characters who wrote them.As Zepha travels each town takes on the characteristics of one of the ten Sefirot. We can see how the levels affect what he will directly or indirectly experience, as we become part of the invisible hand that guides him toward self-awareness.The towns are separated by 22 paths, weaving a road toward each Sefirot. These paths are named and numbered for the letters of the Hebrew Alphabet in an ancient Cabalistic system attributed to Abraham, the father of three religions and author of the Sefer Yetzirah.In traveling these underground formations we acquire the knowledge of good and evil, as we learn that one character's good may be unfortunate for another. Conversations reveal inner complex realities only the reader is aware of. By getting inside each character, we gain insights into the spiritual and mystical understanding attributed to the Cabala.The revelation of the African presence may bring a deeper enjoyment for those interested in astrology which was first described as a way to remember navigation and agriculture. For some, the numbered paths will elevate numerology when they see its connection to the Gematria.Tarot readers will find solace in the borrowed wisdom from these ancient people who first wrote that the world was created when a breath formed a word.

  Named a Most Anticipated Book by Time, Bloomberg, and Electric Literature. RuPaul and Eric Cervini's Allstora Book Club Pick for June. "Thomas Grattan is a master of plot—that rare ability—which makes In Tongues a real roller coaster: funny, sad, shocking, and, finally, quite moving." —Andrew Holleran, author of Dancer from the Dance"An amiable, zippy novel that also smuggles in a sharp analysis of family, class and the intergenerational inheritance of gay men." ―The Washington PostA young gay man upends the lives of a powerful art-world couple in this steamy novel of self-discovery.   It’s 2001, and twenty-four-year-old Gordon—handsome, sensitive, and eager for direction—takes a bus from Minnesota to New York City because it’s the only place for a young gay man to go. As he begins to settle into the city’s punishing rhythm, he gets a job walking rich Manhattanites’ dogs. But it isn’t until he stumbles into the West Village brownstone of two of his clients, the powerful gallery owners Phillip and Nicola, that Gordon learns how much the world has hidden from him—and what he’s capable of doing in order to get it for himself.  A lush, heart-quickening novel about family and art, sex and class, and the terror of self-discovery, Thomas Grattan’s In Tongues chronicles Gordon’s perilous pursuit of belonging from the Midwest to New York and, later, to Europe and Mexico City. As he floats further into Phillip and Nicola’s exclusive universe, and as lines blur between employee, muse, lover, and mentor, Gordon’s charm, manipulation, and growing ambition begin to escape his own control, in turn threatening to unravel the lives, and lies, of those around him.  Anchored by winsome lyricism, glinting intellect, and a main character whose yearnings and mistakes come to feel like our own, In Tongues crackles with fierce longing and pointed emotion, further confirming Grattan as a rare chronicler of young adulthood’s joys and devastations.  A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

  There is something about the number 3.  
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. 
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes. 
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
  From their pens to your your ears.
