In the 1930s, as her second marriage approaches, a brilliant and independent sculptor faces tensions between her art and everyday life in this novel by the author of The Good Earth. This Proud Heart narrates the experience of a gifted sculptor and her struggle to reconcile her absorbing career with society’s domestic expectations. Susan Gaylord is talented, loving, equipped with a strong moral sense, and adept at anything she puts her hand to, from housework to playing the piano to working with marble and clay. But the intensity of her artistic calling comes at a price, isolating her from other people—at times, even from her own family. When her husband dies and she remarries, she finds herself once again comparing the sacrifice of solitude to that of commitment. With a heroine who is naturalistic yet compellingly larger than life, This Proud Heart is incomparable in its sympathetic study of character. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Pearl S. Buck including rare images from the author’s estate.

Lord Trenholme is not happy about being exiled to Williamsburg, VA in 1753, until a scandal in England blows over. Accustomed to privilege and luxury, he views the colony as one step from barbarism. When he crosses paths with Callie Hastings, a feisty colonial tobacco farmer, he is certain of it. She refuses to pay homage to his nobility, and outwitted by her one time too many, he is determined to teach her a lesson in humility. It backfires on him royally. When she is called before the court for a crime she didn't commit, she is outraged that the law is so biased against women. She views British law to be illogical and outdated and delivers a stinging indictment of the justice system, angering the justices. In a humorous confluence of events, she winds up in Trenholme's custody--to both their dismay--and, in the process, manages to cause an uproar among the men in the town when she decides to educate their women on the few legal rights that they have. Inundated with complaints, the governor and General Assembly launch a campaign to get her married.This proves to be easier said than done, and finding himself in the center of the maelstrom, Trenholme, is faced with a choice that will impact the rest of his and Callie's lives.

Wicked funny and hella gay, it’s time for Taylor Parker to come outabout a lot of things. Taylor Parker has always been a funny girl—but when she is accepted as a finalist for a diverse writers’ internship at Saturday Night Live, it turns her life upside down. If she wants a shot at winning in a little more than a month, Taylor will have to come out about both of her secrets: She wants to be a comedian . . . and she’s a lesbian. With a mom who gave up a career in comedy to raise her, and a comedian dad who left for a younger woman, working in comedy is a sore subject in Taylor’s house. To keep her secret under wraps, she sneaks out to do improv and hides her sketches under the bed, and to distract from her anxiety about the competition, Taylor frequents Salem’s Museum of Witchcraft to pine for Abigail Williams from the back row. It’s at the Museum of Witchcraft where Taylor falls deeper in love with the girl who plays Abigail Williams—Charlotte Grey, an out and proud lesbian at Nathaniel Hawthorne High. Charlotte radiates so much confidence in her acting and queerness that Taylor can’t resist her. So when Charlotte reaches out for help on a school project, Taylor readily agrees. As they spend more time together, Taylor sees what living her truth and pursuing her dreams could bring her, but Charlotte can’t understand why someone as funny as Taylor wouldn’t go all out to make the most of her opportunities. To live up to her own comedy dreams and become the person she wants to be, Taylor will have to find the confidence to tell everyone exactly who she is and what she wants.
