The Council of Mirrors (Sisters Grimm #9)

Agnes Grey by EAnne Bront? is a novel in 1847 which is about a governess of that name and is said to be based on Bront?'s own experiences in the field. It was Bront?'s first novel. Similar to her sister Charlotte's novel Jane Eyre, this is a novel that addresses what the precarious position of governess entailed and how it affected a young woman. The Irish novelist George Moore praised Agnes Grey as "the most perfect prose narrative in English letters." Agnes travels to Wellwood house to work for the Bloomfield family. The choice of central character allows Anne to deal with issues of oppression and abuse of women and governesses, isolation and ideas of empathy. An additional theme is the fair treatment of animals. Agnes Grey also mimics some of the stylistic approaches of bildungsromans, employing ideas of personal growth and coming to age, but representing a character who in fact does not gain in virtue.

Charley Partanna works as a hitman for the Prizzis, New York's most dangerous crime family. Irene Walker does, too--an LA-based tax consultant, she moonlights as a hitwoman. And now she's stolen a large sum of money for the mob--and it's Charley's job to find her. The catch? Charley is married to Irene. Faced with divided loyalties, he must make a choice--between the only family he's ever known and the woman he loves.Prizzi's Honor was made into an award-winning film in 1985 starring Jack Nicholson, Robert Loggia, Kathleen Turner, and Anjelica Huston, who won an Academy Award for her performance. A compelling page-turner fueled by rich characterization and fast-paced prose, this book is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat.

我亲耳听到一件十分传奇的事情：但昭义夫妇曾经去了一趟西藏。他们很虔诚地在寺庙出入，到了布达拉宫时，在一个大殿里，有一尊菩萨圣像前围了好多人。高红霞跟一位学生家长见这么多人围着，便好奇地过去看个究竟。这时候，有人劝她们也试试运气。所谓运气，就是人们不断地往菩萨身上抛哈达。如果将哈达抛起来能挂到菩萨的肩头或手臂上，就是预示着会有好运降临的。可是，哈达太轻了，往上抛的人都抛不高，离佛像手臂还差一大截呢！轮到高红霞时，只见她一仰头，将手中的哈达往上一抛，那哈达就像被一股气浪顶着直往上空飞飘而去，一直飘升到了菩萨的头上方，竟然挂在了菩萨面部的那颗痣上。这一下子令在场所有人惊呆了！随后，人们为高红霞欢呼起来：肯定要有鸿运降临了！
