Synopsis The Strange Courtship of Abigail Bird by : John Blumenthal
Beset by awkward interpersonal skills and an obsession with classic literature, Ishmael Archer seems destined for the lonely life of a literature professor at Longfellow College. While he yearns for female companionship, a recent acrimonious divorce has left him in a state of fragility. Struggling to pay his rent, Ishmael is obliged to undertake one of his most dreaded tasks: teach a summer creative writing class. Convinced that he will be saddled with a group of malcontents who care not a whit for Tolstoy or Dickens, Ishmael is delighted to encounter the luminescent Abigail Bird, whose passion for literature equals his own. Their burgeoning romance is cut abruptly short when Abigail suffers a traumatic head wound and falls into a coma. When she finally awakes, Abigail is inexplicably changed, and Ishmael must find a way to reach the girl with whom he had originally fallen in love. Peppered with an enthralling cast of characters--a college dean obsessed with orchids, a Greek landlord with a deep affinity for the works of Ernest Hemingway, and a self-important writer who vies with Archer for Abigail's affections--The Strange Courtship of Abigail Bird is a heartwarming tale of love, loss, and rediscovery.

Synopsis Three and a Half Virgins by : John Blumenthal
"'My name is Jimmy Hendricks and I'm a recovering idiot' So begins John Blumenthal's third novel, the story of a small-town New England entrepreneur with a problematical name, who reacts to the abrupt dissolution of his marriage by revisiting his past. Filled with nostalgia, he finds himself gripped by memories of three former girlfriends -- Laura, Samantha and Molly -- each of whom happened to be virgins when he first met them twenty years before. But then the warm refuge of the past turns to icy reality as he recalls how maliciously he tricked, seduced and broke each of their hearts. Overcome by reality and tantalized by curiosity, he finds a way to reshape his past"--Publisher's description.

Synopsis Sheppard Lee, Written by Himself (Vol. 1&2) by : Robert Montgomery Bird
"Sheppard Lee, Written By Himself" is a satirical work from the early years of the American Republic. It was written in the form as an autobiography and acquired wide acclaim after publishing. The story tells about a young man wishing to find a buried treasure. Instead, he finds the power to transfer his soul into other men's bodies. This results in a picaresque journey through early American pursuits of happiness. But every new form disappoints him. Lee comes to the conclusion that everything in America, even virtue and vice, are interchangeable; everything is an object and has its price.

Synopsis Gloriana by : Michael Moorcock
"A fable satirizing Spenser's 'The Fairie Queen' and reflecting the real life of Elizabeth I, tells of a woman who ascends to the throne upon the death of her debauched and corrupted father, King Hern. Gloriana's reign brings the Empire of Albion into a Golden Age, but her oppressive responsibilities choke her, prohibiting any form of sexual satisfaction, no matter what fetish she tries. Her problem is in fact symbolic of the hypocrisy of her entire court. While her life is meant to mirror that of her nation - an image of purity, virtue, enlightenment and prosperity - the truth is that her peaceful empire is kept secure by her wicked chancellor Monfallcon and his corrupt network of spies and murderers, the most sinister of whom is Captain Quire, who is commissioned to seduce Gloriana and thus bring down Albion and the entire empire." -- Goodreads.com.
