Description:What is paradise? An unscented flower? A plumed bird? A high theatre balcony? Is it a medieval city surrounded by walls, a desert oasis, or the bare, virgin expanses of the North? For some, paradise is the familiar, idealized: a garden with rivers of milk and honey; a childhood remembered but never lived. For others, it is a far-off destination: a dreary landscape beyond the constellations, where cherubs play the lyre upon clouds; a room in which to await resurrection. Wandering Souls in Paradise Lost frames cab drivers, exotic dancers, revellers, mourners, and geniuses - from places like Montreal, New York, Corsica, Cabarete, and Heaven itself - within the space of one Spring solstice day. Using ardent, melodic prose, author H?l?ne Rioux pieces together their disparate lives to form a mosaic of the human longing for a better existence. Wandering Souls of Paradise Lost is the second novel in H?l?ne Rioux's four-part Fragments of the World series. The first novel, Wednesday Night at the End of the World, was published by Cormorant Books Inc. in 2009.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
