Ever since Rosa's nerve disease rendered her quadriplegic, she's depended on her handsome, confident older brother to be her rock and her mirror. But when a doctor from Boston chooses her to be a candidate for an experimental brain transplant, she and her family move from London in search of a miracle. Sylvia—a girl from a small town in Massachusetts —is brain dead, and her parents have agreed to donate her body to give Rosa a new life. But when Rosa wakes from surgery, she can' t help but wonder, with increasing obsession, who Sylvia was and what her life was like. Her fascination with her new body and her desire to understand Sylvia prompt a road trip based on self-discovery… and a surprising new romance. But will Rosa be able to solve the dilemma of her identity?

Count Belisarius
Threatened by invaders on all sides, the Roman Empire in the sixth century fought to maintain its borders. Leading its defense was the Byzantine general Belisarius, a man who earned the grudging respect of his enemies, and who rose to become the Emperor Justinian's greatest military leader.Loosely based on Procopius' History of the Justinian Wars and Secret History, this novel tells the general's story through the eyes of Eugenius, a eunuch and servant to the general's wife. It presents a compelling portrait of a man bound by a strict code of honor and unrelenting loyalty to an emperor who is intelligent but flawed, and whose decisions bring him to a tragic end. Eminent historical novelist and classicist Robert Graves presents a vivid account of a time in history both dissolute and violent, and demonstrates one again his mastery of this historical period.

本书作者长期从事中国近现代美术研究,本书选收他近三十年间美术历史与评论文章,其中有关20世纪中国画发展、西方绘画的引进、油画的本土化、画家的历史命运与历史评价等文章,具有突出的个性色彩,曾引起美术界广泛关注。将画家的艺术活动置于政治文化的历史背景中加以观察,是作者思考的特点。对绘画作品不作纯理论分析,而是与艺术家社会生活和思想境界相联系;对当前艺术潮流与风格观念的评说,总是与中西文化艺术的整体历史相映照。这种个人情感和历史余晖的相互渗透,使他有关现代中国美术的思考有别于一般专业理论著述。故事会(2018年11月下)
