From the viewpoint of the first narrator in Cocteau's Invitation, Mr. Hearse has lived a neat and tidy life, one of convention, of order, without even a hint of the existential angst that plagues the narrator. Indeed, the narrator, a fifty-year-old teacher who is hopelessly entangled in an erotic affair with a student in her final year of school, is a disciple of Rabelais, Shakespeare, Joyce, Beckett, Nabokov, Kristeva, and Cixous. But when the narrator discovers an invitation from Jean Cocteau hidden away in a small wooden casket in the attic of Mr. Hearse's house, he realizes that he was mistaken about the life Mr. Hearse has lived. The latter two-thirds of the novel is devoted to the strange but compelling relationship between Mr. Hearse and Jean Cocteau. Mr. Hearse, as the actor of his tale, now becomes the narrator, but it is Jean Cocteau who is the Director of the narrative. It is Cocteau who sets up the encounter between Mr. Hearse and a modern-day bearded Tiresias. It is Cocteau who orchestrates the meeting on the Mirabeau Bridge. And Cocteau is the reason for travelling to Siam. By the end, of course, the reader understands that the reality of the fifty-year-old teacher presented in the beginning and the reality of Mr. Hearse's life are mirror images of each other, a fractured, fractal mirroring, to be sure, like a Picasso painting, where the boundaries between time and space are blurred. But that is exactly what we should expect in a novel in which Jean Cocteau resides as a character.
He was her BFF until life got in the way. Now he's back, right when she needs him most. But crossing the line of friendship will risk more than just their hearts. All Jane Porter Allen ever wanted was a big family, front porch, and white picket fence. That dream was laid to rest alongside her husband, Casey, when their life was just getting started. Now, as their son, Noah, faces a similar life-threatening diagnosis, she's forced to confront her past as she struggles with how to save her little boy's future. Enter Ryan Engstrom, Jane's college bestie and Casey's childhood best friend. A pediatric neurosurgeon, he's full of regrets and determined to help Noah. He'll need to move mountains to make sure Noah receives the best medical treatment possible-all the while fighting his own personal demons as he faces a heart-wrenching decision. Though still deeply grieving past traumas, Jane and Ryan are just as in tune with each other as ever. When their feelings grow beyond friendship, everything hangs in the balance, including Noah's life. Now, they must confront their pain and make a choice-continue on separate paths and miss out on a second chance at love, or risk everything to find a way to build a future together. Love on the Brain is a poignant emotional journey that explores love, loss, and the healing of wounds that prove most resistant to it.

While it may be impossible to avoid experiences that hurt, disappoint, or even violate you, it is possible to overcome the effects of these experiences. In fact, in order to live a full life in every way, it's not only possible, it's necessary. The Other Side of Unforgiveness shares one of the deepest emotional hurts that author, Danita Lynne, has ever experienced and uses it as a teaching tool for anyone to apply and overcome their own personal hurts. The book discusses common obstacles people face when working to forgive themselves and others, gives practical steps to get past each obstacle, shows how unforgiveness negatively impacts our lives, and addresses the power struggle of the forgiver/forgiven. Her story of healing and resilience shows how the work of forgiveness may be difficult, but it can be simplified with a firm decision and a clear vision.
