Until We Are Lost tells a story of a decaying world ravaged by war through five perspectives at different time periods.

He is currently a resident physician in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Boston Children’s Hospital.

New Book by Robert Gibbons Labors in Vineyards of Desire

ADELAIDE BOOKS is proud to offer the latest work by Robert Gibbons Labors in Vineyards of Desire hitting stores everywhere on February 26th, 2020.

 

Recently I came across a phrase from Milan Kundera: "the destiny of unexpected encounters." It reminded me of the contrast of flying out of Belgrade into Venice in 1967 or seeing Dylan go electric two years earlier, or Miles from a front-row seat at Lennie's-on-the-Turnpike two years later. Climbing the red carpet at Le Palais des Festivals for screenings on Friday & Saturday nights in Cannes as guests of Piper Heidsieck Champagne, when Pulp Fiction won the Palme d'Or in 1994, & President of the Jury, Clint Eastwood came back to the Piper villa for dinner. Putting thumbs in bullet holes of adjacent homes in Compton, on the day cops found the last, unidentified body in the cellar of the SLA hideout, Camilla Hall. Meeting Irina Borisova-Morozova Lynch, granddaughter of Sergei Ivanovich Shchukin, next in line of provenance, after Anna Bock, for the only painting sold by van Gogh in his lifetime, The Red Vineyard, always asking her to tell the story of how the painting passed from the hands of Bock into those of Irina’s grandfather into those of the State, & onto the walls of the Pushkin Museum in Moscow.

 

“Most, if not all of these "destinies" are recorded in this manuscript, although that's not necessarily what I set out to portray. In writing Labors in Vineyards of Desire, I have attempted to uncover the self via the model found in the writings of Walter Benjamin, in essence, an archaeological dig through memory. Quoting Benjamin from Berlin Chronicle: “Memory is the medium of what has been experienced the way the earthen realm is the medium in which dead cities lie buried. He who wishes to approach his own buried past must act like a man who digs." - Robert Gibbons

New Book by Sam Osherson The Wolf Boy

ADELAIDE BOOKS is proud to offer the latest work by Sam Osherson The Wolf Boy hitting stores everywhere on February 25th, 2020.

 

A brilliant but untested young general, Hannibal of Carthage, is about to embark on an audacious war against powerful Rome, the enemy who defeated his father and threatens the future of his city. An orphaned boy, Nahatum, is caught stealing from Hannibal's tent and is about to be executed by the guards. Instead, Hannibal finds himself unexpectedly charmed by the boy and - just as surprisingly -makes Nahatum his servant as he begins a risky, seemingly impossible, plan to invade Italy. Hannibal's learned scribe teaches the clever boy to read and write and so Nahatum comes to know about a world beyond the unrelenting brutality of Hannibal's quest. Becoming literate changes everything for Nahatum. Over time he becomes torn between his loyalty to the man who has saved his life and his desire to escape the seemingly endless war. At the moment of Hannibal's greatest-and bloodiest-victory, Nahatum makes a fateful decision that will shape the rest of his life.

 

In both his fiction and non-fiction, Sam Osherson has explored the complexities of men's lives- their love for and fear of women and the feminine, their attraction to war and the thrill of battle, their desire for family, and their yearning for the hero's quest. Of particular interest to Osherson has been the complex relationship between father and son. The story of Hannibal's heroic efforts to redeem his father's legacy and secure the future of his doomed city has fascinated Osherson since high school when he first came across a book in his town library about the Alps, elephants, and an extraordinary army leader rolling the dice in a most unexpected way. He has spent time in Tunisia, site of the ancient city of Carthage, and visited parts of what may have been Hannibal's route crossing the Alps. He has taught at the Harvard Medical School, University of Massachusetts, Harvard University, MIT, as well as the Fielding Graduate University.
