Bittersweet, funny and touching, Larry McMurtry's The Desert Rose is the story of Harmony, a Las Vegas showgirl. At night she's a lead dancer in a gambling casino; during the day she raises peacocks. She's one of a dying breed of dancers, faced with fewer and fewer jobs and an even bleaker future. Yet she maintains a calm cheerfulness in that arid neon landscape of supermarkets, drive-in wedding chapels, and all-night casinos. While Harmony's star is fading, her beautiful, cynical daughter Pepper's is on the rise. But Harmony remains wistful and optimistic through it all. She is the unexpected blossom in the wasteland, the tough and tender desert rose.

Jack Halliday struck it rich in the 1860 silver boom in Virginia City! As Annalee and her mother travel to join him in Nevada, their joy turns to ashes. They're unprepared for the savage mountain winter that traps them in a desperate struggle for survival. At this critical moment, lawman Brett Wilder arrives in town. He's looking for the gunslinger who crippled his father—and he suspects Jack. When Annalee and Brett meet as they each search for Jack, they must face what they believe about the sovereignty of God, justice, and mercy. They also must discover whether their growing love for one another will melt like snow into an icy mountain stream or bloom like a rose in the desert.

"The Desert and the Rose is an intimate spiritual portrait of Jeanne Jugan, the charismatic French woman who founded the religious congregation of the Little Sisters of the Poor in 1839 but was then unjustly removed from the leadership of the new congregation." "Eloi Leclerc's imaginative recreation of Jeanne's inner experience from the time she was condemned to inaction, silence and solitude shows that true riches and perfect joy do not lie in what is visible but in what we carry in our hearts."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

I was born in a wonderful country Azerbaijan which means The Land of Fires. It’s amazing country which is a mix of different cultures. This multiculturalism is forging the poets and musicians! The most impression I got in my childhood was rock music. Beatles, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Jimmy Hendrix, Grand Funk and many, many others became my musical idols. Long hair and jeans became the symbol of protest against the existing Soviet ideology among youth movement and I was part of it. Beginning from 1998 till 2002 I travelled to many European countries and twice been to USA. My long staying in Montana and in D.C. gave me possibility to describe these brilliant regions and their cordial people in my novel the Desert Rose. I was impressed by meeting with bishop Jim (peace be upon him) and who became one of the main characters in my novel! Being historian I was deeply studying world religions. No religion calling for violence! And it’s not necessarily to be religious for being spiritual! My main characters have many common features with me. They are open – hearted, they love the life and human beings. Despite of their belonging to different nations and religions they are the citizens of the world, and it’s refl ecting my own essence! Each person is a different Universe and I’m quite confi dent that the treasure inside each of us should be revealed early or late!
