It was going to be one of those Monday mornings. As Logan was jogging into the hospital entrance, he could see several others were in his dilemma. Running a bit behind. It was Logan's first day of his new travel assignment. He did not want to be late. Logan knew the first impression was the lasting impression. He located the elevators and knew that jogging was out, it was now an all out race to get on that first set of elevators which would take him to his favorite place - the pediatric unit. Logan piled in with about eight other medical personnel. He was pushed to the back corner to make room for possibly a few more. All of a sudden, he heard a female scream "don't you guys dare leave me, here I come." Logan smiled to himself. That female voice sounded quite demanding. Logan chuckled. He could not wait to see who matched the voice. When the individual stepped on the elevator, he heard another female voice say "come on Gracie, you're holding us up, we're burning daylight." It was not. It could not be. Logan ONLY knew of one Gracie. His Gracie.

Canaries Can't Cry begins in Sansego, a remote in the Adriatic. The island features prominently in the first part of the story, as the Sansegoti's character, superstitious, obstinate, hardworking, and moral, is endemic. (The people of the island are called by the Italian name Sansegoti)--It is a facticity caused by the lack of outside influence, for few people enter the island and even fewer leave. The Sansegoti are a race of hard workers, faith, and implacable mores. Work, religion, and inflexible social rules bring order to their lives and harmony among themselves. Problems arise when rules are broken.
Anita is such a problem. Her life changes when, as a young woman, she defies her entrenched father on two separate occasions. First, when she refuses his choice of education for her, and, second, when she marries the love of her life against his will. This sets off a series of events that earns her the scorn of the islanders. Still, she struggles to gain independence within the trappings of a closed culture and to restore harmony in a life that demands conformity. But neither tempests nor ill winds could sway the Sansegoti to reform their ways, for the island has hold its inhabitants to a life that is stronger than all the ills in the world.
Anita's husband dies while she is pregnant with her third child. Her rich father refuses to help her, and she is forced to marry an old, opera-loving man for the security of a home for her children. In remarrying, she once again breaks society's rules, as widows do not remarry, and disgust follows when she becomes pregnant with the old man. She erred and must be ostracized.
Only the advent of a World War with its frequent bombings and the occupation of the island by Partisans forces do the Sansegoti to change their ways. Able bodied men are captured to fight in Tito's army, and fishermen's boats are confiscated to build Marshall Tito's navy. Famine follows, and a population of almost three thousand is reduced to one of less than three hundred.
Anita's old husband is injured in a bombing of the cannery where he works, leaving him partially paralyzed. He promises her a home in Italy, where he has an apartment. The only way to leave the island is to escape at night by boat. The questions arise, How's a crippled man and four children going to make a trip across partisan infested waters? Who would risk taking them? She entertains the thought of giving up her youngest boy to someone. That would lessen her burden and could make it easier to ferry across the sea into Italy--one child sacrificed for the good of the whole.
Here begins Anita's odyssey with the hold of her memories that impede her moving forward and, yet, she must.
The story is told in two parts. Part 1 takes place east of the Atlantic with Anita's daughter telling the stories she had heard she has heard from her mother. Part 2 takes place on the west coast of the Atlantic. Old world and new world collide, and conciliation seems improbable. The cultural gap is deeper and wider than the ocean. The past haunts Anita's waking and sleeping hours. She tells stories of her life on the island to her daughter Antonia and imparts those values on her. Her daughter rebels, and that rebelliousness has an uncanny similarity to Anita's rebelliousness as a young woman against her father. But those old stories have set roots on the young woman who now lives between the hammer and the anvil--the hammer hammering old values in her head; the anvil forging new ones.

Описание: Mark and Jennair Gerardot had been married nearly 25 years when Mark met the beautiful and charismatic Meredith Chapman. When what had begun as a harmless flirtation blossomed into a passionate love affair, Mark confessed his infidelity and began taking the painful steps toward what he thought was an amicable but long-overdue divorce.

Based on hundreds of hours of recorded conversations and videotapes documenting a marriage as it shatters and a romance as it blooms, Irreparable will stun and surprise you on every page. The suspense builds as each chapter takes the reader deeper into the grief of a man tortured by his guilt, and the madness of a heartbroken woman determined to destroy the man she loved.
