About the book:
Miranda Shane lives a quiet
life among books and letters as a professor in a small upstate town. When the
playing-by-the-rules poet throws out convention and begins to use a Scrabble
board instead of paper to write, she sets off a chain of events that rattles
her carefully planned world.
Her awakening propels her to
take risks and seize chances she previously let slip by, including a game-changing
offer from the man she let slip away. But when the revelation of an affair with
a graduate student threatens the new life Miranda created, she is forced to
decide between love or poetry.
Excerpt“You sure you don’t want to take a cab?” Scott asked her.“I’m sure. Then we wouldn’t see the diamonds,” Lynn said.“Tiffany’s?” Miranda asked. “You’re a little young for that aren’t you? Though you are Bunny’s granddaughter.”“Not like Grandma Bunny’s diamonds! The diamonds on the sidewalk. Look!”Sure enough, the concrete in front of them sparkled. Four or five runs of sidewalk shimmered with mica flecks, then it went to plain for a block or two, then more that sparkled.“I want to know what makes them different,” Miranda said to Scott, pointing at the abrupt change from sparkle to non-sparkle on the sidewalk in front of them.“But knowing the difference would ruin it,” Scott said.“You’d rather think it was magic?”“I like the idea of magic. Don’t you?” he asked.“I don’t take much stock in that,” Miranda said.“Daddy, look!” Lynn said.And there in front of them was a huge elephant balloon with a circus ball balancing on his trunk. The ball wasn’t all the way inflated yet; it wobbled a little and the sides of the elephant shuddered some as the helium pumped in. But an elephant as tall as a house at Central Park was a sight to behold no matter the size or amount of helium left to go. The crowd around them seemed to holding their breath in anticipation as the ball slowly rose.“See,” Miranda said, “to people watching on television that's magic. But it’s not magic. It’s a year of planning and then people working all night on the day before a family holiday to pull it off.”“But it’s magic to her,” Scott said.Lynn strained at the barricade, craning her neck to see down the street and the rest of the balloons staged there.“Sure, it’s magic to her. She’s a kid. Kids have to believe in magic. When you really grow up, it’s different.”“I guess I’m not really grown up then,” Scott said. “And maybe I don’t want to be.”
