No place like home / by St. Amant, Betsy,author.(CARDINAL)593666;
"Magnolia Bay's development director, Cade Landry, would do anything for his town--and his family. So when the mayor--who also happens to be his father--decides to retire, he talks Cade into running for his seat. But Cade is already up to his dimpled cheeks in the town's post-hurricane revitalization fundraiser--Magnolia Days, featuring a flashy Cajun Circus. If Cade can't put the bay back on the map as a tourist town, he'll let the whole community down...and worse yet, his father. Rosalyn Dupree is a famous aerialist with a secret--actually, quite a few of them. Much to Cade's relief, she agrees to return to Magnolia Bay for the first time in years as a headliner for the Cajun Circus. But neither her charming former school rival Cade nor her parents know she's broke, in debt, and nursing a back injury...among other things. She'd love to move back to the bay for good, but the beloved sport that used to let her fly has become her cage. Despite her best efforts at resisting, sparks fly between Cade and Rosalyn as they work together on the circus fundraiser. But when everyone's secrets are revealed and worlds collide, will Rosalyn find forgiveness and restoration in a town being rebuilt? Or will there never be anywhere to truly call home?"--Description based on publisher data; resource not viewed.

Tradition & transitions : eighteenth-century French art from the Horvitz Collection / by Clark, Alvin L.,Jr.,1962-editor.(CARDINAL)223712; Rosenberg, Pierre,writer of preface.(CARDINAL)142404; MacAvock, Jane,translator.(CARDINAL)813263; Horvitz Collection,issuing body,publisher.(CARDINAL)783667; Musée du Petit Palais (Paris, France),host institution.(CARDINAL)156685;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 677-697) and index.This exhibition and its accompanying catalogue provide the visitor and reader with an exploration of the "tradition and transitions" of manners and themes that formed and shifted throughout the art of eighteenth-century France. Examples of works that reveal both the concurrent and successive styles of the long eighteenth-century of French draftsmanship from Charles de La Fosse and Jean-Baptiste Jouvenet at the end of the seventeenth century to the genesis of the Rococo (Claude Gillot, Jean-Antoine Watteau, François Le Moyne) and the Generation of 1700 (Edme Bouchardon, François Boucher, Michel-François Dandré-Bardon, Jacques Dumont, Charles-Joseph Natoire, Pierre-Hubert Subleyras, the Vanloos, which took the French School to its early maturity. Their students, particularly Jean-Honoré Fragonard and Hubert Robert, benefited from and greatly expanded upon this rich inheritance as some of their contemporaries (Charles-Nicolas Cochin le jeune, Joseph-Marie Vien, Jean-Baptiste Deshays, Gabriel-François Doyen) simultaneously searched for a new, less florid mode of expression that eventually led to the Neoclassicism of Jacques-Louis David and his generation in the closing decades of the century. Their students then explored stylistic and thematic variations of that manner into the next century. The wealth of this collection enables visitors to see a full array of the art made within these successive generations by well-known masters as well as by lesser-known artists who were often considered to be their equals in their own time. It also reveals the large variety of regional styles from artists working in important centers other than Paris."This catalogue accompanies the exhibition of The Horvitz Collection at the Petit Palais, Musée des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris, 21 March-9 July 2017"--Title page verso.

Seuil de toľrance / by King, Thomas,1943-Author(DLC)nr 91010641 ; Grenier, Daniel,1980-Translatorauthor(DLC)no2012126176;
"Jeremiah Camp, aka The Forecaster, can look into the heart of humanity and see the patterns that create opportunities and profits for the rich and powerful. Problem is, Camp has looked one too many times, has seen what he hadn't expected to see, has come away from the abyss with no hope for himself or for the future. So, he does what any intelligent, sensitive person would do. He runs away. Goes into hiding in a small town, at an old residential school on an even smaller Indian reserve, with no phone, no internet, no television. The windows shut, the door locked, the mailbox removed to discourage any connection with the world, he feels safe at last. Except nobody told the locals that they were to leave Jeremiah alone. And then his past comes calling. Ash Locken, the head of the Locken Group, the multi-national consortium that Jeremiah has fled, arrives on his doorstep with a simple proposition. She wants our hero to formulate one more forecast, and she's not about to take no for an answer. Before he left the Locken empire, Jeremiah had created a list of twelve names for Ash's father, Thomas Locken. Billionaires, every one. The problem is, the people on the list are dying, at an alarming and unnatural rate. And Ash Locken wants to know why. A sly and satiric look at the fractures in modern existence, Sufferance is a bold and provocative novel about the social and political consequences of the inequality created by privilege and power -- and what we might do about it."
