Pasternak is an uncompromisingly complex poetic stylist, and his meticulous attention to structure, etymology, and phonetic qualities of words makes his poetry a formidable challenge for the translator.
Two sisters who shared everything. One unforgivable moment. And a second chance…There’s something to talk about in every chapter of Elizabeth Joy Arnold’s poignant, insightful debut novel—the perfect summer read for all those who loved Elisabeth Robinson’s The True and Outstanding Adventures of the Hunt Sisters, Judy Blume’s Summer Sisters, and Jodi Picoult’s My Sister’s Keeper. Once, Kerry and Eve Barnard did everything together: sailing the Block Island harbor with their father, listening to their neighbor Justin’s magical fairy tales, and all the while longing for their absent mother. They were twin girls arm in arm, secrets entwined between two hearts. Until the summer of their seventeenth birthday, when their extraordinary bond was shattered. And thirteen years later, it will take all the courage they can summon to put the pieces back together—at a time when it matters most.…

Sisters love each other, hate each other, torment each other-and still manage to stick up for each other. Author Mary McHugh explores the unique relationship sisters share and provides plenty of ways to drive a beloved sister mad in How to Ruin Your Sister's Life. Sisters have made tormenting each other a virtual art form, despite their familial love. Their emotional and mental tricks can make the physical torture brothers inflict on one another seem like child's play. Finally girls and women have somewhere to turn when they run out of ideas for making their sisters miserable: How to Ruin Your Sister's Life. Author Mary McHugh's hilarious, sometimes outrageous suggestions provide all the guidance these girls need, whether they're 16 or 60. A few examples: * Marry her boyfriend. * Throw away the heads of all her Barbie dolls. * Sob loudly throughout her wedding. * Tell your 13-year-old sister's boyfriend that she still sucks her thumb. * Cut up her Christmas stocking and flush it down the toilet. * Take a picture of your 55-year-old sister nude, brushing her teeth. Of course, the best defense is to buy this book before your sister does!
