Hayle Coven Novels

Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

What are the main characteristics of post modernist novels?
One main characteristic is the fragmentation of narrative. Post modernist novels often break the traditional linear storytelling. For example, in 'Slaughterhouse - Five' by Kurt Vonnegut, the story jumps around in time, presenting different events from the protagonist's life in a non - sequential way. Another feature is the blurring of boundaries, like between high and low culture. These novels might incorporate elements of pop culture, such as in 'White Noise' by Don DeLillo, which uses consumer culture and media references. Also, there is a self - reflexivity where the text often comments on its own construction or the act of writing itself.

What are some of the best post modernist novels?
A really good post - modernist novel is 'Gravity's Rainbow' by Thomas Pynchon. It's a complex and often difficult read, with a vast web of characters and plotlines that seem to constantly shift and mutate. 'Midnight's Children' by Salman Rushdie is another top pick. It combines elements of magic realism and post - modernism, with a narrative that is both historical and highly imaginative. Also, 'Beloved' by Toni Morrison can be considered in some ways post - modern. It blurs the boundaries between the real and the supernatural, and its narrative structure is fragmented, which are traits often associated with post - modern literature.

The post - modernist elements, like the self - referential nature of the narrative, are presented in a way that is both interesting and not too difficult to comprehend.

Although it has a complex narrative, the way it combines history and magic realism in a post - modern framework is very appealing and can be a good introduction to this genre.

What are the characteristics of modernist novels?
Well, they tend to have complex and ambiguous themes. They might question the very nature of reality, like in Virginia Woolf's works. Also, modernist novels usually feature unreliable narrators. This means the narrator's version of events can't always be trusted, which adds an extra layer of mystery and makes the reader think more deeply about what's really going on.
