The Measure of Time is a romance novel, but with a twist. It is the story of Violet, a woman who embarks on a journey similar to Dorothy's of The Wizard of Oz. Unlike young Dorothy, Violet is a menopausal, anxious, and discontented fifty-six-year-old. She is beginning to face the uncomfortable questions of her own mortality, relationships with others, and the validity of the life she has so far led. The story leads you into a landscape filled with questions of romance, the confusion of sexuality, the repetitions of history, and the pitfalls of denying truth. Violet's journey is a reminder to us all, no matter who we are or where we are from, that all through the ages, our struggles are the same.

The rough and tumultuous seas beckon to young Charlotte as she watches from the deck. During the storm, Charlotte finds herself thrown overboard by the cruel hands of her father, leaving her desperate for more than just land. When she washes ashore, she finds only a trinket of her former life, one that holds many secrets she may never learn. It's only after she is abandoned that she finds home, a place where she can live just how she wants to and be what she has always truly been. At the arrival of strangers, Charlotte's world is once again turned over and she is ripped from the place and memories she loves. Consumed by despair and rage, she will do anything to seek revenge and return to her beloved home.

Le style en action demande une compréhension efficace et puissante d'une certaine manière d'être valant la peine d'être vécue. C'est lorsque celle-ci est perçue comme telle par une masse et reproduite ainsi par la suite qu'elle viendra à s'instituer. Dès lors, on lui donnera un nom, on la mettra dans des catégories intelligibles, puisque de nature indéterminée à priori, et on finira naturellement par en faire une pratique commune, culturelle et institutionnelle. Le style deviendra ainsi technique et théorique et sa potentialité sera, du coup, exacerbée par la facilité avec laquelle on pourra l'enseigner et le reproduire selon les besoins spécifiques auxquels il est désormais assujetti. C'est à partir de ce moment précis que l'on peut ressentir la pression stylistique dans le développement des cultures et de l'histoire en général. L'institution des styles nous impose, sur le dos des principes d' efficacité et de potentialité , certaines manières d'être, certaines manières de se vivre et de comprendre notre mondanité, puisque le choix de ne pas être efficace ni puissant est toujours bien difficile à faire en collectivité.

Hey everyone! It's Chris Berts here! I'm the Southern Ontario Canadian newspaper reporter that wrote the book within this book that everyone seems to hate. (You'll have to think about that for a moment!) I know, sleepy, small, northern Canadian towns. Nothing ever happens. Yeah, right! That's why Milt Tonkin never liked me for what I wrote about his friend Rick Torrison; he said I was trying to turn Tear Falls into the next Oak Island! But hey, I'm just reporting the facts. I never believed the Stinson Gold Mine or that drunken Sergeant McIntyre anyway. And Randy Biggs and what happened on Fenny Lake? Oakey was right when he said, "There ain't no thin ice on Fenny Lake unless you are an elephant." But you make up your own mind. The hell with Fritz Rinestein and the DeMello twins. I'm not afraid of those thugs and neither should you! Sure, I'll go fishing with Milt and Rujoy Singh up to Yars Lake if they ask me but I'll write the final chapter to this book. You'll see!
