All married seniors eventually lose their mates. Grief overwhelms them, but in their loneliness, a few of them fall in love and remarry late in life, while others may become companions or lovers a second time around without getting married—in spite of how their friends and family may feel about that. Seventy-five-year-old widower Dan Ahn meets his old sweetheart, Lucy Kim Yi, for the first time in forty-five years through Facebook. When he does so, he has no idea that he is opening a door for romance in the twilight of his life. Lucy soon learns that Dan may only have four years to live. Even so, she gingerly restarts their friendship, and they soon become intimate companions, a state she refers to as semilovers. They try to relish it as much as possible, knowing well that it will not last forever. But their loved ones have strong opinions about their relationship, and only time will tell how long Dan and Lucy can withstand their disapproval. In this novel, two widowed senior citizens who find a renewed love with one another must face the censure of their friends and family regarding their connection.

The marriage of William Michael Rossetti (1829-1919) and Lucy Madox Brown (1843-1894) united two of the most resonant Pre-Raphaelite family names. Their passionate and ultimately tragic relationship - described here for the first time - provides a fresh perspective on nineteenth-century marriage and on the private lives of eminent Victorians. Sibling of Dante Gabriel and Christina Rossetti, William was one of the original Pre-Raphaelite 'Brothers,' a Bohemian, radical author, poet, critic, artist, connoisseur, biographer, historian, and taxman. Lucy, the intense, intellectual daughter of Ford Madox Brown, was an ambitious artist and biographer of Mary Shelley in spite of struggling with tuberculosis for nearly a decade. Drawing on hundreds of previously unpublished sources and a wealth of new visual material (including art by William, Lucy, and others of their circle and striking contemporary photographs), the book follows William and Lucy through their separate professional careers, marriage, continental travels, and Lucy’s illness and death. At the crossover between art history, literary criticism, social history, and biography, the book rewrites Pre-Raphaelite history and brings to life two fascinating people who were both of their time and ahead of it.

From the author of the innovative thriller The Quick comes the second story featuring Jimmy Miles. He is a man who doesn’t sleep. Perfect for a private investigator. The night belongs to him and to a restless few with secrets of their own—like Lucy, the mysterious woman he’s trailing. Her connection to Jimmy lies with a strange group called the Sailors. Jimmy knows all about them. They’re part of what keeps him up at night. So are a sudden rash of murders, the memories of an obsessive never-forgotten affair—and the lies about Lucy and his own past, which are far less frightening than the truth. “Dan Vining has reinvented the hard-boiled detective genre and given it a supernatural twist.”—Jeff Long, author of The Wall

In an age driven by desire, what happens when you want two different things? Set in the pristine, precarious world of MoMA, The Modern is a brilliantly wry and insightful debut about art, sexuality, commitment and whether being on the right path can lead to the wrong place. Things seem to be working out for Sophia in New York: having come from Australia to be at the centre of modernity, she’s working at the Museum of Modern Art, living in a great apartment with a boyfriend interviewing for Ivy League teaching positions. They’re smart, serious, dine in the right restaurants and have (a little unexpectedly) become engaged just before he leaves to hike the Appalachian Trail. Alone in the city, Sophia begins to wonder what it means to be married – to be defined, publicly – in the 21st century. Can you be true to yourself and someone else? In a bridal shop she meets Cara, a young artist struggling to get over her ex-girlfriend, and the two begin a connection that leads Sophia to question the nature of her relationships, her career and the consequences of being modern. Both playful and profound, inhabiting the gap between what we feel about ourselves and how we behave, Anna Kate Blair’s debut novel is a sparklingly insightful queer exploration of desire, art and her generation’s place in the world. It announces an exceptional new literary voice. ‘Cerebral and sensual … each fork in the road revealing itself with insight and beauty.’ Katerina Gibson, author of Women I Know ‘A dazzling exploration of desire and longing. Anna Kate Blair has given us a new form of fiction – intellectual, yearning, honest and vulnerable.’ Anne Casey-Hardy, author of Cautionary Tales for Excitable Girls ‘This novel is a work of art ... It made me laugh, feel lucky to be alive, and reminded me of the expansiveness of creativity.’ Laura McPhee-Browne, author of Cherry Beach ‘Blair’s novel expertly blends dark, self-deprecating humour with a quest to know oneself through the lens of art … Sophia is a masterpiece of imperfection and an authentic millennial character.’ Books+Publishing '... a tale of reckoning with oneself and an unshakable external reality.' ArtsHub 'Blair has delivered a stellar debut. It is potent, passionate and illuminating.' The Australian
