Library suggests new books for summer reading entertainment f
The Perquimans County
' Library suggests theae new titles
as fMi summer reading.
Helprin, Mark. "WinUr'a
Tain." Harcourt Brace
Jovanovich, IMS.
"...Time, however, can be
easily overcome; not by chasing
the light, but by standing back
far enough to aee it all at once.
The universe is still complete.
Everything that ever was. Is;
everything that ever will be.
is. ..and so on. in all possible
combinations."
On page MO of "Winter's
Tain," from the thickness of the
book on left and right the center
seems to be appropriately here.
Helprim reveals why Peter Lake
Is to return after 100 year*; why
the Short Tails are still chariag
him; why Athensor is not dead,
why Jackson Mead, Mr.
Mootfowl. and Cecil Wooley are
back building bridges. If you can
accept such a premise, this book
is for you.
The beautiful story takes ?? out
of the 1Mb century when we we
Peter Lake, a second story man,
break into the Upper West Side
mansion at Isaac captured by the
love ot Beverly Penn, who
propels him into the tlmelessness
of the universe; through the 30th
and into the 21st century when
New York City begin* to become
the iflMril metropolis at great
splendor an* promise that
everyone has always thought it
eoaUha.
Of course, there is more to
"Winter's Tale" than time
travel. In the interim, we can ted
the power of wealth, the ultimate
control of nature and the
omnipotence of the universe.
Cliff Towe
Ripley, Alexander. "On
Leaving Charleston."
Doubtoday, ISM.
In a continuation of her

neice of Charleston's heroine.
The story rmi across the ye*n
1*00 to IMS, dramatically
interweaving historical reality
with th* tragic hlatory of the
Actional Tradd family. A quick
paced, eatertaialag
melodramatic aaga.

A brilliant police detective
matches whs with a gang of
cooljr professional political
terrorists la this rousing new
novel by the all-time master of
action aad intrigue-and the
outcome of their contest could
decide weather the Netherlands
will sink beneath the sea ! !

Area Home Health Services to expand

expanded services to include
hospice care. The Hospice
concept assists patients and their
families by providing support
and care to the terminally ill so
that the best quality of life
possible is attained. The
program provides for care to
enable the patient to remain at
home. In order to make this
service possible volunteers are
still needed from Pasquotank,
Perquimans, Camden, and
Currituck counties. A training
program for volunters was held
one night weekly from March
27th through May 29th at John A.
Holmes High School in Edenton
and from April 5th through May
31st at Currituck County High
School in Barco.
Topics discussed during the
Hospice Training Service
included Family Dynamics and
Legal Aspects, Community
Skills, The Physiological Process
of Dying, Feelings about Death
and Dying and Funeral
Planning. A host of knowledge
speakers were on hand to present
these topics.
