Blue Beyond Blue: Extraordinary Tales for Ordinary Dilemmas
by Lauren SlaterOver the course of five books, psychologist Slater has taken readers through her experiences with mental illness and Prozac, her professional work with fellow sufferers, and her becoming a mother. Obviously, writing is an important aspect of her life; she now addresses her belief that writing is therapeutic and describes her use of narrative psychotherapy, a practice that allows patients to gain perspective on their problems by writing stories. Slater discovered that the best form to emulate is the fairy tale, and to demonstrate just how liberating self-generated fairy tales can be, she offers a potent set of her own tales, enchanting and disturbing stories packed with symbols and archetypal dilemmas. Here are mothers and daughters struggling with love and independence, a husband and wife in a power play, a tale about pharmaceuticals, stories about eroticism, our animal selves, mysterious ailments, and healing. Inspired and barbed, Slater's fairy tales are irresistible, great fun to read and to interpret. Donna Seaman

Seventeen-year-old Seven romanticizes about the meaning of life while held captive as a zombie under the shell of a kiddie pool. He's counting on the strength - and maybe even love - of a certain redheaded clarinet player to save him. But will she? Filled with betrayal and revenge, two families struggle with a curse that stretches back to Queen of the Voodoos Marie Laveau in this contemporary Southern Gothic adventure. Prepare for a wildly original twist on the paranormal.
