Publisher's Synopsis

Critically acclaimed writer Paul Russell portrays a complex family drama filled with the full-range of emotions. Astronaut Allen Cloud suffers from post-lunar trauma, his earthbound wife's search for happiness takes her from the bottom of a bottle to a mountainside in Turkey, and their son Jonathan is a gay man on a voyage of self- discovery. With immense skill Russell tells their three different stories, probing deep into the heart of a family torn apart in their search for true happiness, transformation, and liberation.

About the Publisher

Plume

Plume was founded in 1970 as the trade paperback imprint of New American Library. In its early history, Plume focused primarily on nonfiction titles, publishing approximately 35 titles per year. In the early 1980s, as trade paperbacks were rapidly becoming the format of choice among a large segment of book buyers, Plume began expanding its reach, and became recognized as one of the pre-eminent trade paperback imprints. The 1980?s saw Plume make its mark with a number of major bestsellers, including Toni Morrison?s Tar Baby, Erica Jong?s Fanny, Russell Baker?s Growing Up, and Gloria Steinem?s Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions, among others. Now, in 2014, Plume is publishing 85 to 100 titles a year, and its backlist currently encompasses approximately 700 titles.
