As the trend of postmodern literature traces our failure to understand our lives and discover a larger context, we find that our reality is ever-changing and there is not a single constant to follow. We are disappointed by modern political systems, our lovers, and our own individual capabilities. The issue of belonging means finding a place that, both physically and mentally, provides context and meaning for our existence.

  • Gorgeous with a Side of Desire
    GORGEOUS WITH A SIDE OF DESIRE J.D. BLACKROSE 1 melia placed her hands on her hips and gave Lissa the beady eyeball. "You're thinking about Mike again, A aren't you? You could have anybody if you put your‐ self out there, but you squirrel yourself away in a corner office. There has to be more to life than work and your cat." "And my dad." "And your father," Amelia conceded. "But I don't understand why you're hiding. You're beautiful and smart. You're the head of Fall City Hospital's entire Communications and Public Relations department, and a confident, professional woman, but one man looks at your big blue eyes and lovely blonde hair with interest and you flinch. Why?" “You forget that love fades quickly, Amelia.” She kept her voice mild. "Bullshit, if you'll pardon my bluntness. Mike left to pursue his passion, and he was always honest with you about that. He’s embedded in some military unit reporting under fire and that’s all he ever wanted. Besides, it would have been cruel to marry you and then take off for months and years as a combat reporter. You’d spend all your time worrying.” “You’re right, but…” “Arizona.” 1 J.D. BLACKROSE Lissa dropped her head to stare at her desk. “Arizona.” She and Mike had shared an experience in Arizona that she still couldn’t explain to this day, but she’d hoped that it had been enough to keep him stateside, with her. She’d been a fool.

  • Just As Long As We're Together - Blume, Judy
    Just as Long as We're Together - Blume, Judy. 1. Hunks. "Stephanie is into hunks," my mother said to my aunt on Sunday afternoon. They were in the kitchen making potato salad and I was stretched out on the grass in our yard, reading. But the kitchen window was wide open so I could hear every word my mother and aunt were saying. I wasn't paying much attention though, until I heard my name. At first I wasn't sure what my mother meant by Stephanie is into hunks, but I got the message when she added, "She's taped a poster of Richard Gere on the ceiling above her bed. She says she likes to look up at him while she's trying to fall asleep at night." "Oh-oh," Aunt Denise said. "You'd better have a talk with her." "She already knows about the birds and the bees," Mom said. "Yes, but what does she know about boys?" Aunt Denise asked. It so happens I know plenty about boys. As for hunks, I've never known one personally. Most boys my age-and I'm starting seventh grade in two weeks-are babies. As for my Richard Gere poster, I didn't even know he was famous when I bought it. I got it on sale. The picture must have been taken a long time ago because he looks young, around seventeen. He was really cute back then. I love the expression on his face, kind of a half-smile, as if he's sharing a secret with me.

A moment later, Wolff rushed in and lounged his big body in the leather armchair. He poured two glasses of water from a crys- tal carafe and handed one over the table. “Sorry,” he said. “It turns out that it is not prostatitis but prostate cancer after all. I took the glass and put it down. “Good match with the weather,” I heard myself say. I stared at the giant raindrops splashing at the windowpane. “Weather will pass by,” Wolff muttered and pressed the print button of his computer. “Thanks for the awesome comfort. Life will pass by as well.” I kept on gazing at the window and watched the pouring rain. The laser printer ejected a sheet of paper. “Sorry, didn’t mean that.” Wolff handed the page over to me.
