Originally published under a pseudonym, ‘Annabel’ by famous ‘Oz’ author L. Frank Baum follows the story of young Will Carden, whose family has fallen on hard times. Will grows close to the beautiful local young heiress Annabel Williams, as the pair unite in their suspicions about Ezra Jordan – the man who is managing Annabel’s fathers Mill and who is staying with the Carden family. The pair find themselves caught up in a tale of international espionage and intrigue as they team up to discover the truth about Ezra. Lyman Frank Baum (1856 – 1919) was a prolific and well-known American writer. He is best known for his famous series of modern fairy tales set in the imaginary land of Oz. The first of the books, ‘The Wonderful Wizard of Oz’ is widely considered to be the first true American fairy tale and was the basis for the hugely popular 1939 classic musical ‘The Wizard of Oz’ starring Judy Garland. Born and raised in New York, Baum held a range of jobs including as a poultry farmer, clerk, and storekeeper before pursuing his talent for writing at the age of 41. He wrote 14 novels in the Oz series, as well as over 40 other novels and over 80 short stories. He died in California in 1919.

“A rich backdrop of period detail . . . This emotionally rich and socially aware novel touchingly evokes a time when the personal became awkwardly political.” —Publishers Weekly Cyrus Stapleton thinks he’s done everything right—married young, fathered two precocious kids, and partnered in his Seattle law firm—but his wife, Jude, yearns for more. Envisioning Cyrus as all the czars and dictators of the nineteenth century rolled into a three-piece suit and herself as the liberated visionary, Jude sheds her ring, then her married name, and finally her bewildered husband. Gripped by helplessness and self-doubt, Cyrus wonders how it came to this. Is it the fault of Jude’s women’s group and its fiery leader, Lill Epstein, the ex-army feminist with silicone breasts? Does Jude have a new lover? How does a reasonable man behave in the face of his wife’s demands for custody, alimony, and child support? How can he salvage his relationship with his kids when he sees them only twice a month? And what is he to do when, contrary to his best judgment, he becomes attracted to none other than Lill Epstein? Searching for a way back to normal—through a men’s therapy group, the misguided assistance of his younger brother, and his kids (who begin to act out in troubling ways)—Cyrus must navigate through twists and turns, and a courtroom battle, to survive the upheavals of 1970s America with his heart intact.

The funeral was short. Laurel was surprised that she cried during the service. It had been small, primarily populated by Laurel and her husband’s family. He didn’t have many friends and she had no family to speak of so the service was short and sweet. The sky was unbearably bright and they held the service in the late afternoon. Maybe not a sweet funeral, but it was short. Richard Ericson had died at the age of thirty five of a massive heart attack. He had grown larger during the last five years of his life and made no effort to remain healthy despite the fact that he nagged at Laurel constantly to maintain her beauty for him. Richard and Laurel had lived quietly side by side, she kept the house and he went to his office job from eight to six. He came home and she had dinner ready. They never had children. There was little love in the marriage. Because there was such little love Laurel was surprised when a few tears slipped out as Richard was lowered into the ground. Her mother-in-law patted her briskly on the shoulder. The woman’s face was tight and devoid of emotion as she gave her a stiff hug. Without another word she walked to where her husband stood, a somber man. The two made a lovely emotionless pair. Her mother and father-in-law were silent and shed few tears. There was little love in the family as well. The priest said a few words and her brother-in-law sang drunkenly under his breath, attempting to put his arm around Laurel’s waist. She swatted him away but his hands kept finding his way to her hip, belly button and thigh. At one point his fingers started to creep up the back of her dress and stoke her butt. That was the last straw. She turned and slapped his hand and stepped firmly on his foot. He yelped, making the priest and his parents look up at them. Laurel flushed but did not apologize, just stepped away from Tyson pointedly and motioned for the priest to continue. It wasn’t until she folded her arms that he continued his reading. It was rather a depressing funeral and Laurel was glad when it was over. Her in-laws gave her a curt nod as she walked back to her car and her brother-in-law gave her a lewd smile that made her skin crawl. She quickened her pace and didn’t look back. Not at the grave or her supposed ‘family’. As she drove home by herself one thought kept circling in her mind. It wasn’t about her dead husband and how she should have left the marriage earlier. It wasn’t about his parent and their lack of affection for both their son and her. It wasn’t about the fact that her home would now be empty and only occupied by her. No, her one thought was this: I have to get a job
