About the Author Dr. Gary Kirby, Renaissance PhD from Northwestern, college teacher, describes his six books on GaryKirby.com as Waking dreams with a pleasure and a point. Mountains, lakes, and forests form the pleasure and shape the point of The Other Edge of Beauty that you hold in your hand. Breathe the beauty. Product Description Sculpted: Gentian blue eyes, silk cheeks caressed by the soft hand of a god, beyond a diamond, flawlessly faceted. No jewel, no flower, no Renaissance Master could ever match her.Blemished: Snot nose. Miss Prissy Princess. The boys, like ugly little toads, hopped around Snow White-but she was dirt black inside.Snatched: Her rich parents, smashed by a drunk who swatted them dead, like flies. Orphaned, the judge awarded her to an unknown grandmother who drove her away to the Wyoming Mountains.Angered: The old woman looked like a witch. The child simmered and boiled and bolted away into the hands of an alligator elegant man-"You have to take your clothes off."Refreshed: That old mountain magic flowering in that young breast, glowing in that wondering mind, and stretching rock strength down the bones of those swelling young legs.Transformed: A dream summer of beauty and wonder, beauty burning within and glowing all outward, enchanting like elven laughter, uplifting like the rainbow, breathtaking like the thunder, and warming like the sunlight.Wise: Gram never told me what the tree meant. She just said look. She just said learn. She just said beauty. She just said love.
