Editorial : About the Author Georgina lives in Portland, Oregon with her husband who is an artist, writer, and teacher. They have a son who is a professional musician in New York City, where they all lived for eighteen years. She is a member of the Screen Actors Guild, and was a stage actress for many years. Born and raised in the Southwest, she went to school in New York City, graduating from New York University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theater. She is also a screenwriter, journalist, film/theater critic and blogger.
Dr. Cassandra Reilly is surprised to find herself time-traveling again, this time to New York of 1853, accompanying the internationally acclaimed artist, Evie Johnston. Evie has funded the trip, explaining that she wishes to meet her ancestors, activists in the Underground Railroad. However, the beautiful painter has another agenda altogether. When they arrive in the pre-Civil War city, Evie's deception embroils both her and Cassandra in the activities of the abolitionist revolutionaries, a situation fraught with danger, as well as unexpected romance. Cassandra struggles to keep history intact, and to keep herself and Evie from falling victim to a gang of human traffickers. All the while, each woman discovers how the past has a way of becoming all too personal and present, as they both fall under the spell of the time and the people they meet.
Mailer basically shrugged off a freat opportunity to cause a great conflict of mental confusion in Mike, to strongly contribute to the plot.
Mailer's writing did not help the novel's cause either. Unlike Steinbeck, Mailer fails at this task. wonderfull book, delivery ok. They need your help, your patience, and your understanding. I say almost becaue there are many references to obsolete instructions used with a PLC no longer manufactured. There are some interesting philosophical considerations.
8. I noticed that he has some interesting rail and trolley websites which might be of interest to readers. It's too bad we've lost them to the car. It seems that Mailer intends for his dialogue to advance the plot and to develop the characters. This is a great book. There were things he wrote in this book, too, that ring true even today, particularly at the beginning of chapter 24, when he discusses the big, rich companies, the machine that makes capitalism go and grow, and the workers
