	Generations \| Winter 2004-05 - Journal of the American Society on Aging (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		It is more than twenty-five years now since Carroll Estes published her influential book The Aging Enterprise (1979), in which she described, and also criticized, the evolution of an aging human-service sector supported by government funding.
		The problem is that if age brands are left entirely to emerging companies in Silver Industry sectors, then we’re in danger of getting products that respond to stereotypes and the lowest common denominator: businesses based on denial of aging rather than latent strengths of later life.
		It would be tragic if the new Aging Enterprise, and the rise of Silver Industries, were to remain disconnected from gerontology and from the traditional human-service professions that have done so much to help older Americans in the past.

	Patricia A. McKillip, Winter Rose (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		In the time of this story (which is indeterminate, but seems most like the late 18th to middle 19th century), Corbet Lynn, Tearle's son, returns to try to rebuild the ruins of Lynn Hall.
		Winter Rose is a beautifully written and lyrical novel and it's the language that saves the book.
		The characters are one dimension or two short, too cast to type - the wild girl and the homebody sisters; the patient fiance; the slow-witted, but loving, father; etc. - but McKillip's language brings dignity to the characters.

	The Millions (A Blog About Books): Generations of Winter by Vassily Aksyonov
		Generations of Winter was originally conceived as a mini-series for PBS, but when the project was shelved, Vassily Aksynov's publisher convinced him to make a novel out of the project.
		Considering the subject matter, the success of Generations of Winter in Russia must represent a difficult acknowledgement of the horrors of Soviet history which remain unmarked by monuments and for which the government has never officially apologized.
		Generations of Winter is a historical novel at heart.

	Winter's End - Cynthia Grenier
		Vassily Aksyonov's wonderfully engrossing novel The Winter's Hero is a welcome change of pace from most current American fiction, seemingly lost in cris de coeur, navel gazing, and Prozac gobbling.
		Aksyonov, long considered one of the best novelists of his generation writing in Russian, has had a personal life and literary career reflecting much of the course of Soviet history, and he has deftly woven his knowledge into this novel.
		While there are undeniably special pleasures for a reader already acquainted with the first volume, there is no reason for someone coming anew to Winter's Hero to feel at a disadvantage.

		"Generations of Winter" is an interesting history of the early Stalinist period in Russia.
		While using the vehicle of the well-to-do, privileged Gradov family to describe the era, the book is, however, nothing but a fictionalized tale of the history of those tumultuous times in Russia.
		All-in-all, "Generations of Winter" left this reader interested in the Gradov family and wanting to read the follow-on novel "The Winter's Hero" depicting the end of the Stalinist era to see if anything really positive could happen to the family during that time.

		His grandfather had won two gold medals in speedskating at the 1932 Lake Placid Winter Olympics, and his father competed as a cross-country skier in three events at the 1964 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck.
		That made the Sheas the first family to produce three generations of Winter Olympians and put a permanent smile on his grandfather's face.

		The worlds of the solar system are the hells through which all souls must incarnate on their journey to Paradise; all, that is, but the Starbridges, nobles who serve to enforce the "divine will." Paul Park's work in this series has received two Locus Poll Award nominations and an Arthur C. Clarke Award nomination.
		In the third and final book of the Starbridge Chronicles, more than two generations have passed since the events of Sugar Rain, and barren tundra has given way to fecund, steamy jungle at the height of summer.
		Deep in the forest, a twin boy and girl grow up among a strange race of philosophers, oblivious to the outside world, where the secular regime is now as fanatical and orthodox as the old religious one.
