Book Description
From Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of the Church of Christian Science, to Deepak Chopra, Americans have struggled with the connection between health and happiness. Barbara Wilson was taught by her Christian Scientist family that there was no sickness or evil, and that by maintaining this belief she would be protected. But such beliefs were challenged when Wilson's own mother died of breast cancer after deciding not to seek medical attention, having been driven mad by the contradiction between her religion and her reality. In this perceptive and textured memoir Blue Windows, Wilson surveys the complex history of Christian Science and the role of women in religion and healing.

Book Description
They are astonishing, wonderful, and always, invariably modern: the windows at Tiffany’s Fifth Avenue flagship are the stuff dreams are made of. Their appeal is universal, inviting passersby, old and young, to vanish through the looking glass and into a spellbinding world of robin’s egg blue where even the most elusive of fantasies may come true. This hand-bound oversize Ultimate Collection edition presents a well-curated tour of the intricately crafted displays that continue to serve as references of the zeitgeist, from the legendary designer Gene Moore’s Christmas and Valentine’s displays to the neon creations of the current Tiffany & Co. creative team. Along with never-before-seen concept sketches, historical manuscripts, behind the scenes imagery and insights by cultural influencers and devotees of the world’s global arbiter of design and style, Windows at Tiffany’s revisits the whimsy and spirit of one of the world’s most recognized brands, and elicits nostalgia for each reader’s first blue box moment.

Book Description
The Blue Window is another of Temple Bailey's exquisite love stories, written in her unusual distinctive style. Hildegarde Carew, brought up in ignorance of the high social position of her father, from whom her mother is separated, spends her girlhood amid the hardships of a country farm. At her mother's death, she goes to live with her father, a tyrannical, selfish, but superficially charming person. Caught in the whirl of the life which surrounds hers, Hildegarde fights to retain her ideals. Her mother's spirit contends with the living influence of the father. This contention and masterful wooing of Hildegarde's country lover, Crispin, are the high points of this beautiful and highly realistic story.

Book Description
Five siblings fall through time and space into a strange, unkind world — their arrival mysteriously foretold — and land in the center of an epic civil struggle in a country where many citizens have given themselves over to their primal fears and animal passions at the urging of a power-hungry demagogue. When siblings Susan, Max, Nell, Kate, and Jean tumble one by one through a glowing cobalt window, they find themselves outside their cozy home — and in a completely unfamiliar world where everything looks wrong and nothing makes sense. Soon, an ancient prophecy leads them into battle with mysterious forces that threaten to break the siblings apart even as they try desperately to remain united and find their way home. Thirteen-year-old twins Max and Susan and their younger siblings take turns narrating the events of their story in unique perspectives as each of the children tries to comprehend their stunning predicament — and their extraordinary new powers — in his or her own way. From acclaimed author Adina Rishe Gewirtz comes a riveting novel in the vein of C. S. Lewis and E. Nesbit, full of nuanced questions about morality, family, and the meaning of home.
