Myers News-Press "...this beautifully written literary novel works as a touching coming-of-age story about a child in search of her missing mother." --The Sacramento Bee "Award-winning author Susan Hubbard explores a strange, dark world…." --The Tucson Citizen "Hubbard (Walking on Ice) delineates Ari's world of innocent and uncertain adolescence with uncommon poignance and forgoes sensationalism for sensitivity..." --Publishers Weekly "Florida author Hubbard offers a surprising twist on this trend: a vampire tale that reads more like a subtle family drama." --The Arizona Republic "A triumph of modern gothic storytelling. The Society of S is the most unusual coming of age story you'll ever read." --Carolyn Parkhurst, author of The Dogs of Babel I'm a member. Are you? Don't worry if you're not sure. I've been there. I had to go on the road, from upstate New Yorkto Florida, in order to find out. Here's a map of my trip. If you click on the cities, you'll find some of my diaryentries and photos of places I visited. Whether you're one of us or not, I hope that your journey is a safe one. Buy the Book What if everything you knew about your family was a lie? What if, when the lies began to crack, beneath them lay a truth so dark and deep, yet so compelling, that it pulled youinside? Ariella Montero is seeking the true identities of her mother and father--and of herself. She's been taught literature,philosophy, science, and history, but she knows almost nothing about the real world and its complexities. Her world isone wherein ghosts and vampires commune with humans; Edgar Allan Poe and Jack Kerouac are role models; and every time apuzzle seems solved, its last piece changes the entire picture. When the last piece is murder, Ari goes on the road in search of her mother, who disappeared at the time of her birth.The hunt nearly costs Ari her life, and, in finding her mother, she loses her father. But gradually she uncovers thesecrets that have kept the family apart, and she begins to come to terms with her own nature and its chances forsurvival. Set in upstate New York, England, and the American South, The Society of S explodes stereotypes--of the homeschooled,vampires, monkeys, FBI agents, and academics. In this strange new world, vegetarianism, environmentalism, biomedicalresearch, and the abiity to disappear are options for those who drink blood and face the prospect of eternal life. A taut, character-driven literary mystery, The Society of S is the future of vampirism, told in a voice that will hauntyou-and make you think. |
