Sinopsis

In "The Room with the Little Door," Roland Burnham Molineux crafts a poignant exploration of human intimacy and the intricate complexities of personal relationships. Set against a backdrop of a quaint, yet melancholic, small town, Molineux employs a lyrical prose style that combines rich sensory detail with introspective narrative, creating a profound emotional resonance. The novel'Äôs themes of longing, isolation, and the search for connection reflect the influences of early 20th-century American literature, echoing the works of Sherwood Anderson and William Faulkner, while simultaneously offering a fresh perspective on the universal human experience. Roland Burnham Molineux, an esteemed writer and literary scholar, draws from his own lived experiences and academic background in psychology to inform his character development and thematic exploration. His tenure as a professor of literature at a small liberal arts college has instilled in him a deep appreciation for the nuances of narrative and character. Molineux'Äôs personal history of navigating complex relationships informs his poignant storytelling, allowing for authentic portrayals of vulnerability and emotional depth. This book is highly recommended for readers who appreciate finely crafted literature that delves into the intricacies of the human soul. Molineux'Äôs mastery of language and his insightful characterizations invite readers to reflect on their own relationships, making "The Room with the Little Door" a compelling addition to the canon of modern literary fiction.

    One fateful night will change their destinies forever. . . .  
     
    Convinced that his stepmother and half brothers have been wrongfully evicted by cattle king Eli Dearing, Asher Ellis uses the cover of an extravagant ball to break into the Three Cedars' ranch house to search for proof. On the verge of discovery, he flees, but a boy's cry compels him to make a daring rescue. 
     
    Spunky and independent Samantha Dearing balks when she learns the ball her father is hosting is nothing more than a matrimonial ambush.

Afraid she will discover his past misconduct, Asher tries to keep his distance, but when a series of suspicious accidents befall her, he vows to protect her, even though saving her life could mean losing her love.

    LONGLISTED FOR THE 2024 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE 
    “An intimate story from the family archive that is also the infamous history of our continent.”—Valeria Luiselli, author of Lost Children Archive  
    Award-winning Peruvian journalist Gabriela Wiener delivers her stunning English breakthrough in this ""appealingly raw"" (NPR) and ""incisive"" (Publishers Weekly) work of autofiction that explores colonialism through one woman’s family ties to both the colonized and colonizer.  
    Alone in a museum in Paris, Gabriela Wiener confronts her complicated family heritage. She is visiting an exhibition of pre-Columbian artifacts, spoils of European colonialism, many stolen from her homeland of Peru. As she peers at countless sculptures of Indigenous faces, each resembling her own, she sees herself in them—but the man responsible for pillaging them was her own great-great-grandfather, Austrian colonial explorer Charles Wiener.  
    In the wake of her father’s death, Gabriela returns to Peru. In alternating strands, she begins to probe her father’s infidelity, her own polyamorous relationship, and the history of her colonial ancestor, unpacking the legacy that is her birthright. From the eye-patched persona her father adopted to carry out his double life to the brutal racism she encounters in her ancestor Charles’s book, she traces a cycle of abandonment, jealousy, and fraud, in turn reframing her own personal struggles with desire, love, and race.
