Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of four centuries of witches - a family given to poetry and incest, murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being called Lasher who haunts the Mayfair women. Moving in time from today's New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and the France of Louis XIV, from the coffee plantations of Port-au-Prince to Civil War New Orleans and back to today, Anne Rice has spun a mesmerizing tale.

She is welcomed by Chantal Wickham and Jude feels close to the old woman at once: they have both lost their husbands.

The tower was built as an observatory for astronomer Anthony Wickham and his daughter Esther, and it served as the setting for their most incredible discoveries.

Publisher's summary
An eccentric painter in a a small New England village rescues a handsome young stranger who insists he has fallen from the stars. The young man inspires both the artist's art and his heart.
James: "I had only ever really loved three things; my sister Ann, my painting, and my privacy. I always thought that was enough; love, sex, and such seemed too confusing and messy - too disruptive.
"After my sister passed away, our large New England house was suddenly a lonely place, until the handsome younger stranger appeared out of the starry night. I had followed his mysterious flute playing into the old cemetery across the lane and discovered him battered and with a broken leg. Deliriously he claimed to have flown and fallen from the stars.
"I took Russell into my home to recover from his broken leg. I began to paint him and fall in love for the first time in my life. As weeks went by, I was frightened by my new emotions. I also found myself frightened and fascinated by the youth's belief he was an angel.
"Was he perhaps a bit mad? Would I have to send him away for help? Would I lose Rus before I had really found him?"

A tour de force, Amulet is a highly charged first-person, semi-hallucinatory novel that embodies in one woman's voice the melancholy and violent recent history of Latin America. Amulet is a monologue, like Bolaño's acclaimed debut in English, By Night in Chile. The speaker is Auxilio Lacouture, a Uruguayan woman who moved to Mexico in the 1960s, becoming the "Mother of Mexican Poetry", hanging out with the young poets in the cafés and bars of the University.

Long, lonely years have passed for the crumbling Château Clement, nestled well beyond the rolling lavender fields and popular tourist attractions of Provence.
