Book Description
From the extraordinary Colombian French politician and activist Ingrid Betancourt, a stunning debut novel about freedom and fate Set against the backdrop of Argentina’s Dirty War and infused with magical realism, The Blue Line is a breathtaking story of love and betrayal by one of the world’s most renowned writers and activists. Ingrid Betancourt, author of the New York Times bestselling memoir Even Silence Has an End, draws on history and personal experience in this deeply felt portrait of a woman coming of age as her country falls deeper and deeper into chaos. Buenos Aires, the 1970s. Julia inherits from her grandmother a gift, precious and burdensome. Sometimes visions appear before her eyes, mysterious and terrible apparitions from the future, seen from the perspective of others. From the age of five, Julia must intervene to prevent horrific events. In fact, as her grandmother tells her, it is her duty to do so—otherwise she will lose her gift. At fifteen, Julia falls in love with Theo, a handsome revolutionary four years her senior. Their lives are turned upside down when Juan Perón, the former president and military dictator, returns to Argentina. Confronted by the realities of military dictatorship, Julia and Theo become Montoneros sympathizers and radical idealists, equally fascinated by Jesus Christ and Che Guevara. Captured by death squadrons, they somehow manage to escape. . . . In this remarkable novel, Betancourt, an activist who spent more than six years held hostage by the FARC in the depths of Colombian jungle, returns to many of the themes of Even Silence Has an End. The Blue Line is a story centered on the consequences of oppression, collective subservience, and individual courage, and, most of all, the notion that belief in the future of humanity is an act of faith most beautiful and deserving.

Book Description
This isn't a story about a love triangle. There is no triangle involved. This isn't a story about an accidental pregnancy. Although having a baby with her . . . I would. This isn't a story about lies and deception, even though at times I've lied to myself. No, this is my story. A story about sacrifice. A story about a man who fell in love with the wrong girl. A story I wish I never had to tell. This is a story about the true meaning of the downside of love.

Book Description
Since 1979, the literary journal Blueline has served as a venue for literature that reflects the distinctive spirit of the Adirondack region. These poems and prose pieces, drawn from twenty-five years of Blueline's pages, represent the abundance and variety of creative responses to the singular geography and history of the Adirondacks. Read together, however, they do something more: they reveal a distinct way of looking at the world, attuned both to nature in all its various detail and to profound questions about nature and humanity. Under the editors' discriminating eyes, the contributions coalesce into a natural and elegant extension of the region's landscape and people. From Joseph Bruchac's "Writing by Moonlight" and Neal Burdick's "Waiting for a Train at the Plattsburgh Amtrak Station" to Alice Wolf Gilborn's "On Adirondack Porches," The Blueline Anthology offers rare glimpses into the soul of a region, brief and shifting views that, like those glimpsed by a hiker looking out from the trees at the blue mountains, capture the eye and the mind.
