Description

Beauty – in both name and appearance – is a twenty-year-old Bangladeshi, back in
England having disgraced her family by fleeing an abusive arranged marriage. Forced onto
the jobseeker’s treadmill and under extreme domestic pressure, she cracks and runs away.
Her encounters with officialdom, fellow claimants, and strangers in the city streets,
complicated by the restrictions and comfort of her language and culture, place her at the
mercy of such unlikely helpers as Mark, a friendly, Staffordshire bull terrier-breeding exoffender,
and Peter, a middle-class underachiever on the rebound from a bitter relationship.
With determination and good humour, Beauty moves ever closer to making her choice
between family duty and personal freedom. All the while, however, her brothers are
searching for her across town. Can she make the choice herself, before she’s forced to?
A sharply rendered, compassionate and challenging portrait of a fragmented, multicultural
urban England.

What’s it like to be the most beautiful girl in the world? Molly desperately wants to be beautiful. And that’s what she tells Dharma, the mysterious portrait artist who sketches her face at the town fair just minutes after she’s humiliated in front of Hudson, the guy of her dreams. When Molly wakes up the following morning, she’s the most beautiful girl in Miracle, Ohio. Babies coo in her arms, her house fills with flowers from dozens of drooling boys, and she’s chosen to be a model for the hottest store in town. Best of all, Hudson finally falls for her. But Molly soon discovers that beauty–and her wish–comes with a price. She’s faced with an impossible choice: Will reclaiming her true identity mean letting go of Hudson for good?

At the Academy, Ana is devastated when her only friend abandons her for the popular girls. Isolated and alone, Ana resolves to look like a true princess to earn the acceptance she desires. But when she uncovers the dangerous secret that makes all of the girls at the Academy so gorgeous, just how far will Ana go to fit in?

Description

Jamie Angelo is part artist and part alchemist. His plastic surgery techniques are light-years beyond modern medicine. He can transform a haggard face into a masterpiece of ageless beauty. He is not God. But he is close. To ambitious models like Jaishree Manglani, Jamie is the ultimate fantasy-a master illusionist who can turn her dream of eternal youth into reality. Until the truth about Jami’s “art” and “science” is revealed, and a nightmare ensues. Because if there’s no such thing as perfect beauty, Manhattan’s king of beauty might just be the gatekeeper of something other than human.
