The Lost Concerto by Helaine Mario Book Review

The Lost Concerto by Helaine Mario is not my kind of book that being said it is very well written and tells the story of A woman and her young son who flee to a convent on a remote island off the Breton coast of France.  Generations of seafarers have named the place Île de la Brume, or Fog Island. In a chapel high on a cliff, a tragic death occurs and a terrified child vanishes into the mist.The child’s godmother, Maggie O’Shea, is haunted by the violent deaths of her husband and her best friend, has become withdrawn from her life as a classical pianist. But then a recording of unforgettable music and a grainy photograph surface, connecting her missing godson to a long-lost first love. The photograph will draw Maggie inexorably into a collision course with criminal forces, decades-old secrets, stolen art and musical artifacts, and deadly terrorists. Her search will take her to the Festival de Musique, Aix-en-Provence, France, where she will discovers the answers to her husband’s death, an unexpected love—and a musical masterpiece lost for centuries.

The Lost Concerto by Helaine Mario explores universal themes of loss, vengeance, courage, and love. the above is a small excerpt from the book I actually really like this book even if it is not a book I would normally choose to read this truly is a must read it is wonderful written and all around great book.

Description taken from website Clifton K Meador

In Sketches of a Small Town…circa 1940,By Clifton K. Meador, MD, he tells stories of his life growing up in a small cotton-farming town in the Deep South during the 1930s and ‘40s. it is Full of fascinating characters and entertaining tales, his memoir captures the sights and sounds, people, places, hopes and dreams of this remarkable era.It would seem For Meador, Greenville, Alabama, was a rich environment to grow up in. But times were tough back then, segregation was strong and small-town life was simple, his memories shine with the wonderful, hilarious, and quirky aspects of that time and place and the experiences that helped shaped him into the person he is today.

Sketches of a Small Town…circa 1940 recalls days when boys made up their own fun and all the mischief that followed them. He tells stories about discovering girls and how “sex education” consisted of a penny-for-a-peek in the school cloakroom. Birth control was the fear of hellfire, damnation and syphilis was drummed into young boys heads from an early age, with Rev. Ralph Morgan’s overzealous, detailed descriptions of the titillating temptations they must resist as further confusion.

Mainstream morals and gentle manners share the stage with voodoo superstitions and elaborate pranks in Meador’s world. He charms us with tales of friendship, fast cars and fried chicken and tells of local sharecroppers and tenant farmers who purchase what they need from the general store “on account,” that is, “on account of I don’t have any money.”

Written with humor as well as with love and respect, Meador’s reminiscences are snapshots of a place and time, devoid of clichés or pining for the past, brought to life in the hands of a skilled storyteller.
