"Doubt can be a bond as powerful and sustaining as certainty. When you are lost, you are not alone."

Sister Aloysius suspects Father Flynn of having an improper relationship with one of her school’s students. Her tenacious but cautious investigation results in a provocative drama that is less about scandal than about the consequences of certainty in a world where ideas about gender, race and morality are changing faster than ever before. 2005 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award

"I’m afraid you have a long way to go to get on good terms with the life force. This five million is just a down payment..."

Gina Mae Sabatini and Mary Raft would never agree on beauty, living as they do at opposite margins of the city. But penthouse or back alley, their families come first when it comes to closing a deal. A fast-paced comedy that blends a little Robin Hood with a lot of street smarts to figure out what it takes to succeed in the urban jungle.

"You want her to fit in? Who she is - is perfect. She’s the future."

Can an anthropologist who is happiest alone on a dig become mother to a daughter whose very existence she has managed to ignore for a long time? Vivian’s world faces major adaptation when her ex-husband insists that she must take temporary custody of their autistic daughter. Getting to know Lucy becomes Vivian’s biggest evolutionary leap yet.
