From the author of "Anatomy of a Daisy" . . .Follow the life and trials of the spoiled, sour, spiteful Senescencia Greenland as she makes her way through her growing-up years in the village of Palisades, attended by her ambivalent companion, Mrs. Meredith.Excerpt from the manuscript:"We have delved more deeply into the inner recesses of Senescencia Greenland's life and experiences, in these last few chapters, than we have ever yet done previously, and you see we are still met with fault-filled individuals. Watch as the Benjamins abandon our darling in their greedy pursuit of knowledge of the queen. They have left her to the wiles of the stench-encircled Mrs. Meredith. For that I will abhor them forever. But stop - if they had not gone, Senescencia might never have had occasion to return to Palisades, towing Mrs. Meredith along with her. And for that I will love them forever" (Kissinger, 123).Newly released in October 2017, "The Chestnut Dream" introduces readers to a brand new ensemble of fascinating characters, every one of whom imbued with what the author herself describes as "that most mysterious element, Contradiction."
