<strong>JOSÉPHINE BUDAYEVSKAYA <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/thelostgallery/">by the lost gallery</a></strong>

by Mme Rivière 1806

The portrait was previously attributed to L.E. Vigée-Lebrun, but a signature "Rivière" could refer to the nièce of Lebrun, also a painter, Caroline, daughter of his brother Étienne, married with the baron de Rivière. When the portrait was acquired by the Pushkin Museum the owner told the sitter was Joséphine Wilhelmine Budayevskaya, the wife of a polish general in the Napoleon army.

Other sources say unknown artist, portrait of a lady playing a lyre.

I wonder if she met Paolina Borghese Bonaparte

Day 3 of Entangled Teens Urban vs. Epic Fantasy Week Team Epic: Why the Authors Love Epic Fantasy!

Erica Cameron - Island of Exiles (The Ryogan Chronicles, #1):

Why do I love epic fantasy? It’s a blank slate. We can erase all of our preconceived notions of society and law and even science, throwing all of that over the side of a cliff. Epic fantasy lets us push humanity well past the breaking point with ever more impossible landscapes and situations. It lets us see what we could be if only we let ourselves get there. Plus, epic fantasy is, well, epic!

Book Description:

In Khya’s world, every breath is a battle. On the isolated desert island of Shiara, dying young is inevitable. The clan comes before self, and protecting her home means Khya is a warrior above all else.

But when following the clan and obeying their leaders could cost her brother his life, Khya’s home becomes a deadly trap. The only person who can help is Tessen, her lifelong rival and the boy who challenges her at every turn. The council she hoped to join has betrayed her, and their secrets, hundreds of years deep, reach around a world she’s never seen.

To save her brother’s life and her island home, her only choice is to trust Tessen, turn against her clan, and go on the run—a betrayal and a death sentence.

Buy Island of Exiles

Amber Mitchell – Garden of Thorns:

When I read and write, it’s because I want to escape and nothing gets you farther from your troubles than the distant shores of entirely new worlds. Epic fantasy invites you onto its tropical beaches, into its lush jungles and through its exotic cityscapes, shaking out its uncharted map for you to explore. Every page brims with fantastic characters questing, battling men and extraordinary beasts alike with magic flowing from nimble fingertips and daring sword fights. The allure of entirely new cultures, the epic stakes, swoon-worthy romances, and the flowing dresses of epic fantasy will always have my heart.

Book Description:

After seven grueling years of captivity in the Garden—a burlesque troupe of slave girls—sixteen-year-old Rose finds an opportunity to escape during a performance for the emperor. But the hostage she randomly chose from the crowd to aid her isn’t one of the emperor’s men—not anymore. He’s the former heir to the throne, who is now leading a rebellion against it.

Rayce is a wanted man and dangerously charismatic, the worst person for Rose to get involved with, no matter what his smile promises. But he assumes Rose’s attempt to take him hostage is part of a plot to crush the rebellion, so he takes her as his hostage. Now Rose must prove where her loyalties lie, and she offers Rayce a deal—if he helps her rescue the other girls, she’ll tell him all the Garden’s secrets.

Except the one secret she’s kept for seven years that she’ll to take to her grave if she must.

Buy Garden of Thorns

L.E. Sterling - True North (True Born, #2):

Don’t get me wrong – #TeamUrban is great. I love time jumpers and magicians running around a book. They make you blink and question what you saw. But I prefer life in a funhouse mirror. Give me a goblin market. Give me a warrior queen with immortal blood. I want the snow queen’s glass shard to be embedded in my eye. I want to completely escape the bounds of reality – not be shackled by them. I don’t want to just question my perceptions – I want to know I’m not in Kansas any longer.

Book Description:

Abandoned by her family in Plague-ridden Dominion City, eighteen-year-old Lucy Fox has no choice but to rely upon the kindness of the True Borns, a renegade group of genetically enhanced humans, to save her twin sister, Margot. But Nolan Storm, their mysterious leader, has his own agenda. When Storm backtracks on his promise to rescue Margot, Lucy takes her fate into her own hands and sets off for Russia with her True Born bodyguard and maybe-something-more, the lethal yet beautiful Jared Price. In Russia, there’s been whispered rumors of Plague Cure.

While Lucy fights her magnetic attraction to Jared, anxious that his loyalty to Storm will hurt her chances of finding her sister, they quickly discover that not all is as it appears…and discovering the secrets contained in the Fox sisters’ blood before they wind up dead is just the beginning.

As they say in Dominion, sometimes it’s not you…it’s your DNA.

Buy True North

Nicole Luiken - In Truth & Ashes (Otherselves, #3):

First for the endlessly inventive magic. Second for the fascinating new worlds to explore. Third for the fantastic creatures that dwell there: dragons, gargoyles, demi-gods and phoenixes are just a few of the ones I’ve used.

Epic fantasy gives a writer a bigger canvas to paint. Instead of a city, a country or even worlds. Wars. Heroes. Villains. Destinies. Everything is bigger is epic fantasy. The stakes are higher, instead of a single group, the fate of a world can hang in the balance.

Book Description:

The Mirror Worlds are but dull reflections of the True World, where magic and technology blend together…

On the True World, Belinda Loring has known from childhood that she must Bond with the son of another noble First Family. Uniting the families ensures hers will hold onto its powerful position, and so she’s always pushed down the tender feelings she has for her best friend—gorgeous, steadfast Demian, who isn’t noble.

But when the ceremonial magic goes disastrously wrong, Belinda becomes a national disgrace. Scorned as Broken, she turns to Demian for help getting revenge on the man who ruined her: the radical Malachi.

But the seeds of Malachi’s murderous plans lie buried in Belinda’s past, in the dark days of her kidnapping—a period of which she has no memory. And Demian may hold the key to recovering all that she’s lost—and saving the worlds.

Buy In Truth & Ashes

Renee Collins - Relic:

Book Description:

After a raging fire consumes her town and kills her parents, Maggie Davis is on her own to protect her younger sister and survive best she can in the Colorado town of Burning Mesa. In Maggie’s world, the bones of long-extinct magical creatures such as dragons and sirens are mined and traded for their residual magical elements, and harnessing these relics’ powers allows the user to wield fire, turn invisible, or heal even the worst of injuries.

Working in a local saloon, Maggie befriends the spirited showgirl Adelaide and falls for the roguish cowboy Landon. But when she proves to have a particular skill at harnessing the relics’ powers, Maggie is whisked away to the glamorous hacienda of Álvar Castilla, the wealthy young relic baron who runs Burning Mesa. Though his intentions aren’t always clear, Álvar trains Maggie in the world of relic magic. But when the mysterious fires reappear in their neighboring towns, Maggie must discover who is channeling relic magic for evil before it’s too late.

Relic is a thrilling adventure set in a wholly unique world, and a spell-binding story of love, trust, and the power of good.

Buy Relic

Rebekah L. Purdy - The Summer Marked (The Winter People, #2):

Epic Fantasy is an escape from the “real world” and takes you to other lands, places you can only dream of, which is why I love it so much. And there’s so much more opportunity to really explore new creatures and characters within these worlds. I mean, who doesn’t like the idea of stepping through a closet and finding a cool fantasy world? LOL.

I’m also a big fan of the epic battles (think Lord of the Rings or Throne of Glass). Girl with a sword=Awesome.

Book Description:

Fresh off a break-up with her boyfriend, Kadie’s glad to be home from college for Thanksgiving. All she needs is a rebound guy, a box of chocolates, and some girl time with her best friend, Salome. Problem is, Salome isn’t returning her calls, and her family won’t say where she is. Feeling sorry for herself, Kadie ends up at Club Blade, a place filled with pumping music, dangerous guys, and promises of a good time. However, when midnight strikes, Kadie’s fun turns into a nightmare as she’s ripped from the human world into Faerie by a vengeful Winter Prince named Etienne. For the first time in her life, she realizes the monsters Salome always spoke of are real, and they’ll stop at nothing to destroy her friend.

Salome thought the winter curse was behind her. But winter has left its mark. Not just on her, but on the whole summer court. The Kingdom of Summer is falling apart, and Nevin is hanging onto his throne by a thread. With war on his doorstep, he has no choice but to send Gareth into enemy territory, which means Salome will be left alone—vulnerable in a world she doesn’t understand. A place where beauty is deadly and humans are pawns in the macabre games the Fae play. Both Kadie and Salome will have to call on all their strength to survive in a world where humans aren’t meant to be. With death and enemies all around them, it’ll be a miracle if they can survive.

Buy The Summer Marked

Chloe Jacobs - Greta and the Goblin King (Mylena Chronicles, #1):

Book Description:

While trying to save her brother from a witch’s fire four years ago, Greta was thrown in herself, falling through a portal to Mylena, a dangerous world where humans are the enemy and every ogre, ghoul, and goblin has a dark side that comes out with the eclipse.

To survive, Greta has hidden her humanity and taken the job of bounty hunter—and she’s good at what she does. So good, she’s caught the attention of Mylena’s young goblin king, the darkly enticing Isaac, who invades her dreams and undermines her will to escape.

But Greta’s not the only one looking to get out of Mylena. An ancient evil knows she’s the key to opening the portal, and with the next eclipse mere days away, every bloodthirsty creature in the realm is after her—including Isaac. If Greta fails, she and the lost boys of Mylena will die. If she succeeds, no world will be safe from what follows her back…

Buy Greta and the Goblin King

by Barbara Waldinger

A musical about fracking? Is it doomed to share the fate suffered by entertainments on such unlikely subjects as Anne Frank or Anna Karenina, the Musicals: obscurity and a critical chorus of “What could they have been thinking?”

Decidedly not!

Fall Springs by Niko Tsakalakos (music and lyrics) and Peter Sinn Nachtrieb (book and lyrics), now playing at Barrington Stage Company, comes to the Berkshires via BSC’s Musical Theatre Lab, bringing with it the offbeat comedy and edgy excitement we have come to expect from previous productions by the Lab.

Offering musical theatre writers a place to develop their work, The Musical Theatre Lab was created after BSC workshopped and premiered William Finn and Rachel Sheinkin’s The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (2004), which went on to a successful Broadway run. The Lab, under the mentorship of Finn, the two-time Tony Award-winning composer/lyricist, has subsequently produced fourteen world premieres and six workshops of new musicals. Additionally, as a member of the writing faculty at the NYU Tisch Graduate Program in Musical Theatre, Finn has brought the work of some of his exceptional students in his annual Songs by Ridiculously Talented Composers and Lyricists You Probably Don’t Know But Should. . . Among this group were Joe Iconis, whose musicals The Black Suits, Broadway Bounty Hunter and Be More Chill (recently directed on Broadway by Stephen Brackett, who staged Fall Springs) were produced at BSC, and Niko Tsakalakos, whose Pool Boy premiered there in 2010. Both of these composers/lyricists have returned to BSC to perform concerts, to the delight of local audiences.

Fall Springs has been in development for seven years, with help from the Creativity Fund (a program of New Dramatists), Ars Nova and TheaterWorks Silicon Valley’s 2013 Writer’s Retreat and as such, this World Premiere arrives at Barrington Stage’s Boyd-Quinson Mainstage in more polished and professional shape than most other Lab productions.

The satiric plot concerns the problems facing Fall Springs, “the fourteenth most aesthetically pleasing smallish town [in the United States] not including locations near water or mountains,” which is sitting on one of the largest Essential Oil reserves in the country, famous for its lotions and creams. Unfortunately, since drilling is no longer extracting enough of the buried oils, Mayor Robert Bradley (Matt McGrath), desperate for a way to boost production in time for the town’s Semi-Centennial Celebration, eagerly embraces fracking, brainchild of Beverly Cushman (Ellen Harvey, a deliciously evil villain dressed in devil’s red, thanks to Costume Designer Emily Rebholz), the CEO of the Fall Springs Oil Drilling Corporation. Cushman, who has discarded the disturbing data collected by the Mayor’s recently deceased wife, a geologist studying the effect of drilling and overdevelopment on the solidity of the ground, easily cajoles the Mayor’s council of advisors (all single parents) to go along with her idea, but cannot persuade their children. It’s up to the brilliant Eloise Bradley (Alyse Alan Louis), daughter of the Mayor, who continues her mother’s research, despite being threatened by her father (“No science in this family”). With the help of the town’s genius/vagrant, Noland Wolanske (Ken Marks), former professor of geology, Eloise endeavors to save Fall Springs.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

The play is part Little Shop of Horrors, with its campy caricatures of good vs evil, its prescient chorus of young people, and the nerd who musters the courage to express his feelings; part Enemy of the People (or Jaws, referenced in the script), whose main characters are driven by greed to attract the income provided by tourists, ignoring the danger threatening them as well as the townspeople, and part disaster film, focusing on survivors of a calamity facing their imminent deaths who finally acknowledge the importance of family, of forgiveness, of unity–to quote Tsakalakos/Nachtrieb: “one home, one world, one people.”

Director Stephen Brackett and choreographer Patrick McCollum maintain a breakneck pace at first, demanding high energy from their skilled cast and musicians, but slow the action down in the second, more introspective and treacly act, trapping most of the characters on a small raised stage built for the Semi-Centennial Celebration as the town sinks around them. Scenic designer Tim Mackabee has taken on an enormous challenge, adding to his traditional wing and drop set a horizontal crack the width of the stage, deep enough for unlucky townspeople to fall through. David Lander’s eye-popping lighting effects and Sound Designer Josh Millican’s rumbling earthquakes accompany the smoke and fire emanating from this crevice.

Characters fall into two camps: corrupt parents vs. ethical children (and a geologist), each of whose personalities are distilled through the music and lyrics. Examples of the many well-delivered musical references to the current political atmosphere in our country are Matt McGrath’s Mayor, a two-faced politician, so busy convincing us of his heroism in “Save One Life,” that he nearly allows a child to drown, and Harvey’s Beverly Cushman, whose rendition of “More” perfectly exemplifies her avaricious nature. The four teenagers (all age 17), as members of a local rock band, sing powerful warnings like “Sinking Into Oblivion,” that fall on deaf ears, while Louis’ Eloise, in “Gimme Science,” futilely implores the adults not to ignore data and research. Sam Heldt’s Nerdy Felix Cushman, in his wonderful breakout song “The Bass Player’s Lament,” accuses Eloise, whom he loves, of faking her threats about an approaching earthquake, and in “The Birds Have Come Home,” Marks’ Wolanske sings: “Ever think that we may be the ones that have caused the way things are?”
