Descriere magazin:
A new edition of the best selling third volume of the Georgia Trilogy, presented by Turner Publishing For three decades, Eugenia Price has entranced millions of readers with her sweeping, romantic chronicles of life in the American South. In all its beauty, glory, infamy, and tragedy, Ms. Price\'s South is at once mysterious and heartbreakingly familiar. Beauty from Ashes is the long-awaited concluding volume in Ms. Price\'s Georgia Trilogy, preceded by the New York Times bestseller Bright Captivity and Where Shadows Go. Again, she leads us through her South--by now an aching South that will soon be torn by pain and pride, riven by fierce principles and divided loyalties, but always guided by men and women of uncommon passion. The sweeping saga of two families of St. Simon\'s Island--the Coupers and the Frasers--resumes in 1852, as Anne Couper Fraser grieves the deaths of her husband and her parents. But fate is as cruel to Anne as history itself would prove to be to the nation: Anne\'s family, fallen on hard times, has lost its home. Anne has no choice but to seek refuge, and reluctantly resettles in Marietta, three hundred miles north of her beloved St. Simons Island. As she begins to piece together her broken life, all around her the society she knows so well is falling apart. The roots of the Civil War are already evident. Anne\'s family, like the South itself, seethes with internal conflict. Her son and grandson, who find it impossible to spurn their Southern heritage, enlist in the Confederate Army. Anne, in strong sympathy with the Unionists, finds her life disintegrating once again, and the family, the region, and the nation begin an agonizing collapse. But Anne, like the Union, endures. She learns that even in life\'s cruelest circumstances, there is always a place for the unquenchable human spirit to find a refuge, and to blossom anew. Filled with characters drawn from history and from Eugenia Price\'s rich imagination, Beauty from Ashes is a memorable finale to her admired Georgia Trilogy. An inspirational story of courage, love, and friendship, it will delight longtime Price fans and introduce the Georgia author to a new generation of readers. About the Author: Eugenia Price, 79, Romance Novelist, Dies By Robert McG. Thomas Jr., May 30, 1996, The New York Times Eugenia Price, who turned a chance visit to coastal Georgia into a career as the South\'s most popular writer of antebellum romantic fiction, died on Tuesday at a hospital in Brunswick, Ga., not far from her home in St. Simons, the island she made famous through a series of novels. She was 79. Her companion, Joyce Blackburn, said the cause was congestive heart failure. Her hoop-skirted heroines tended to be too unremittingly beautiful, her handsome heroes a shade too dashing and their problems a bit too easily solved for Ms. Price to have won serious literary acclaim. But then again, how many acclaimed authors sell more than 40 million books in 18 languages? That Ms. Price did just that was a tribute both to her ability as a storyteller and her knack for recreating a bygone era with such compelling and authentic historic detail that, according to the St. Simons\'s Chamber of Commerce, a substantial majority of the thousands of tourists who visit the island each year come there specifically to scout out the houses, marshes and other locales she used in her novels, not to mention the headstones of the actual people she brought back to life as fictional characters. Ms. Price, a dentist\'s daughter from Charleston, W.Va., was a precocious student who entered Ohio University at 16 and later studied dentistry at Northwestern University before dropping out of school to pursue a writing career. Those familiar with the intensely romantic themes of her fiction would not be surprised that she began her career writing soap operas, initially in Chicago and later in New York and Cincinnati, the headquarters of Procter & Gamble. An intense conversion to Christianity in the late 1940\'s altered the course of her life and of her writing. Abandoning soap operas, she began turn
