From Publishers Weekly

Charleston, S.C., gossip columnist Leopold Bloom King narrates a paean to his hometown and friends in Conroy's first novel in 14 years. In the late '60s and after his brother commits suicide, then 18-year-old Leo befriends a cross-section of the city's inhabitants: scions of Charleston aristocracy; Appalachian orphans; a black football coach's son; and an astonishingly beautiful pair of twins, Sheba and Trevor Poe, who are evading their psychotic father. The story alternates between 1969, the glorious year Leo's coterie stormed Charleston's social, sexual and racial barricades, and 1989, when Sheba, now a movie star, enlists them to find her missing gay brother in AIDS-ravaged San Francisco. Too often the not-so-witty repartee and the narrator's awed voice (he is very fond of superlatives) overwhelm the stories surrounding the group's love affairs and their struggles to protect one another from dangerous pasts. Some characters are tragically lost to the riptides of love and obsession, while others emerge from the frothy waters of sentimentality and nostalgia as exhausted as most readers are likely to be. Fans of Conroy's florid prose and earnest melodramas are in for a treat. (Aug.)

Cross stitch kits take 8-14 days for me to create once your order has been placed.  All floss is hand cut. Please do not penalize us for shipping time as these are speciality hand made items. Flat rate shipping applies for cross stitch kits and books.

International orders may take 2-4 weeks for arrival once shipped. Please do not fault us for items held in customs as this is out of our hands. Ordinarily, priority international takes 7-10 days if not held in customs. When your item leaves our store you will get a confirmation email.

PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL I SEND YOU AN INVOICE. Many times ebay misquotes shipping costs and either I suffer or a loss or they overcharge you. After every transaction I weigh the item a second time and research the least possible rate for you and send it in an invoice.

All invoices will be sent out very promptly.

I do have a return policy! If you are dissatisfied with anything you buy from me you I ask that you please contact me within three days after you receive your item to be considered for refund.
