NEW BOOK, ‘Family: Life’, explores the duality of its themes with passion and rare insight.
With her latest book, author Carmen Capuano takes the reader on a journey both exciting and insightful. Delivering a heart-wrenching story about infertility wrapped inside a wider arc of themes of conservation and animal rights, Capuano has the reader swaying from one viewpoint to another, one heartfelt belief to another.
“It was
important that the reader was able to see all the intricacies of both sides of the story
and also to experience it through the eyes of the main character of Barbara
Lingorsky,” Capuano says. “Barbara’s
desperate need for a child becomes all-encompassing and it’s this which drives
her narrative.”
Capuano is no stranger to conflict within her books and indeed the lives of her characters. Known for her perception and sensitivity to her characters and their situations, Family: Life promises to be no less engrossing and controversial than her other books.
Family: Life is priced at £2.50 (ebook) and £8.50 (paperback) and available now in print and ebook versions from Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other reputable online book retailers.
One pair of primate conservationists desperate for a child. One perfect solution.
Primatologists Vlas and Barbara Lingorsky are fully aware of the importance of their work as research scientists in the Rwandan jungle. And of the danger it puts them in.
When poachers kill an infant gorilla, Barbara is forced into consideration of her biological clock and the memory of the loss of her own child. With Barbara now unable to bear a child naturally, events seem to take on a momentum of their own. It’s not too long before her longing for a family overflows into her everyday life, and the perfect solution presents itself…
