Ellen Pompea hit bottom, or at least pavement, when a car hit her on a busy street and sent her flying. On the way to the hospital, she slipped into a coma and entered an alternate world, one that reflected the struggles and challenges she felt inside. From the burning desert sands where she discovered Daniel, her Guardian Angel injured from a brutal attack by Marauders, to the Marauder's fight ring, the Ice Queen's palace and even the pits of hell, Ellen travels in search of who she was before her life fell apart. Daniel faithfully accompanies her every step of the way vowing to do whatever it takes to help her piece herself back together. And in the process, they discover a deep love neither can fathom yet both need in order to survive the ordeal. However, will it be enough to bring Ellen the healing she needs before her time runs out?

In this stunning catalog, Wees, curator of decorative arts at the Clark Art Institute, shares her extensive knowledge of silver. Robert Sterling Clark, who established the Art Institute in 1955, preferred Huguenot silver? especially that of Paul de Lamerie? so his collection, which contains typical objects from the early 16th to the mid-20th centuries, is especially rich in 18th-century examples. Wees arranges this collection according to general function ("Dining," "Lighting," etc.) and prefaces each chapter with exhaustively footnoted essays. She accompanies each item with crisp black-and-white photographs, a wealth of description, and helpful commentary. Analogous to Kathryn Buhler's standard catalog of American silver in Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, this is a wonderful tool for researching makers and hallmarks, comparing stylistic elements, or just marveling at the beauty of an extraordinary collection. While not intended to be a historical compendium, this informative, visual feast belongs in all silver reference collections and will also certainly appeal to individual collectors. 19 colour & 1,222 b/w illustrations
