Winter Literary

Finding Rebecca in this small, isolated village was the only thing that helped Frankie cope with moving here with her widowed father - in fact, Rebecca's friendship helped her cope with everything. But now something isn't right...not with Rebecca, not with Rebecca's old friend Shirley who is suddenly back in the picture, and not with Frankie's entire world. More alone than ever, Frankie must explore the curvatures of her hurt without Rebecca by her side.

"There is a disease that can twist men’s hearts and make them mad, and the name of that disease is jealousy." So begins this engaging retelling of one of William Shakespeare’s last plays - a fascinating and unique combination of intensity and whimsy. When King Leontes unfairly accuses his wife of infidelity, he sets off a terrible chain of events. But this is not one of Shakespeare’s tragedies. It’s a romance, and one with a healthy dose of fancy and surprise.
