Nate Dushku, Lindsay Goranson, Jerome Brooks Jr.Dean and Isabella are the quintessential New York City couple. Isabella provides passion and inspiration for Dean's large and colorful canvases. Isabella, a mathematics undergraduate student at Columbia University lives in a vivid world of geometrical shapes and symmetry. Their relationship is unique, a merger between shape and color. Between art and mathematics. That is, until the day Dean receives the news. Isabella is dead. Her absence is even more haunting because of the mysterious nature of her death, a crime still unsolved. A suicide, the police have concluded. Dean is shrouded in dismay and his art is suffering. He is uninspired. Frustrated, Dean splatters his canvas with paint. All abstractions. Images start to form in the midst of chaotic and abstract brush strokes. Dean follows the clues that his paintings provide. The accuracy of his paintings is striking! Yet his path leads toward Dean's greatest fear - the reflection of his own mind. Does he succeed?PG.DVD.

I fell in love with hope : a novel / by Lancali,author.;
"Against the unforgiving landscape of a hospital, a group of terminally ill patients embraces the joys within their reach: friendship, freedom, rebellion.

In the midst of pain and loss, they find community, even miracles, and together they are determined to reclaim from life what illness has taken from them. But a singular heartbreak has led one to swear off love forever. The risk of experiencing another tragedy feels too great. Yet, in this desolate place where it seems impossible for love to make an appearance, a door opens--and so do hearts."--Back cover.

Good dirt : a novel / by Wilkerson, Charmaine,author.;
When ten-year-old Ebby Freeman heard the gunshot, time stopped. And when she saw her brother, Baz, lying on the floor surrounded by the shattered pieces of a centuries-old jar, life as Ebby knew it shattered as well. The crime was never solved -- and because the Freemans were one of the only Black families in a particularly well-to-do enclave of New England -- the case has had an enduring, voyeuristic pull for the public. The last thing the Freemans want is another media frenzy splashing their family across the papers, but when Ebby's high profile romance falls apart without any explanation, that's exactly what they get. So Ebby flees to France, only for her past to follow her there. And as she tries to process what's happened, she begins to think about the other loss her family suffered on that day eighteen years ago -- the stoneware jar that had been in their family for generations, brought North by an enslaved ancestor. But little does she know that the handcrafted piece of pottery held more than just her family's history -- it might also hold the key to unlocking her own future. In this sweeping, evocative novel, Charmaine Wilkerson brings to life a multi-generational epic that examines how the past informs our present.
