Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. There is something different about Theory, Texas.The hill-country farm-town seems sleepy and dull, memorable as the thirty-fifth Tuesday of whatever year you can't recall. You could drive through Theory, Texas in two minutes, not recalling a thing about it two minutes later. Perhaps the difference is in little things. The ice-rink is upside down. A cat is mayor. The donut shop enforces strict rules of Truth. In the town park farmers debate the meaning of existence. Tuba playing is forbidden within town limits.And the high-school science teacher, Ted Alva, has been warned: beware the friendly stranger from Acronym Land. Guard the secret archive of past inventions, less some devil or corporate CEO find use for the town's secret.And that secret is (sssshhh, don't tell). In Theory, everything works.The unlikely dreams, the improbable machines, all the conceivable inventions that in ordinary places would beget explosions, laughter or a dull and useless hum. these things can work. In theory.In Theory, Texas, everything works. From the book: "Nicole Devlin.""Ted Alva.""Not Thomas?""I had it changed.""Ah."Introduction complete, Ms. Devlin sat herself neat as napkin folded by the maitre d' himself, into the one chair opposite the one desk. Placing her briefcase on her lap."I always wanted to be called 'Nicky'," she confessed. "But it's forever either Nicole or 'the Devil'.Alva remained standing, blinking at the creature. A young woman in a serious gray suit that declared Serious Gray business; lightened by a fluffy red bow at the collar."People call you the Devil?""It's the name 'Devlin', I suppose. That or I piss people off." She sighed. "People. What can you do?""My father was a Thomas Alva Edison fan. He pissed people off too. Edison, I mean, not my dad. Well, dad also pissed people off. Me, anyway. I prefer Nikola Tesla.""Prefer him to your father, or to Edison?"Alva considered. "Hmm. Both. Edison wasn't much of a family man. Dad, either.""I wonder if anyone called Tesla 'Nicky'?""Maybe. He was charming. On a good day. Tesla, I mean. Not dad.""I hear you," said the Devil. "Never got on with my father either."

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. In the quiet town of Angelica, Texas a street of quaint old houses attracts amused week-end tourists. And sometimes a family feels drawn to move within the circle, finding a home that echoes some need or truth within their lives. Because the homes of Circle St. are the Stations of the Angels; houses of fire and madness, clowns and lions, ghosts and dreams. Clarence lives in a burning house. It's just home, interesting as white socks. He's fascinated by the haunted house across the street. In the windows the face of a mysterious girl appears, smiling. For years she waved at Sinclair, who lives in the Fun House, a home of mirrors and whirling floors. Not that Sinclair ever laughs. Granted, Shannon from the House of Sorrow is always upbeat. Anastasia lives with a lion; but takes things calmly. Perhaps the houses don't define the families; only present them with their choices of who to be, how to look at life.Then again, as Nancy from the House of the Moon realizes after escaping from an asylum: everyone in Angelica just might be a bit crazy. Mason: my parents run a bed-and-breakfast: The Mason's Due. The name was 'Le Maison Dieu'. That's French for 'The House of God'. Doesn't market well in Baptist country. So dad relabeled it, me already being Mason. It's a family name. Besides, God doesn't have all the house, just half. It's a duplex. He gets in and out from the stairs in the back. When He wants, I mean. I suppose He can get in any way He wants. There is a big door on the third floor connecting our side of the house and His. It's kept locked, part of the lease agreement. Anastasia: people ask, what is it like to live with a lion? They seem disappointed to hear the answer 'nothing special'. The creature keeps to himself on the third floor. Except for the faint cat-smell, the occasional thump of heavy paws, you could live here a week before realizing you share a home with a lion. Sure he roars in the mornings, but in a lazy way around ten, after yawning and stretching. By then we are long up, dressed, and off to school. ."Invisible Cities" and "Wayside School" meet in Central Texas. This item is printed on demand.
