Fireflies

Pine Grove has always been a peaceful place, and sixteen-year-old Marley feels right at home in the Appalachians. Things change when a close encounter of the third kind leaves a glowing mark on her shoulder, and a handsome new boy shows up at school. A peculiar green glimmering in his eyes reminds her of fireflies, both captivating and scaring her right out of her boots. When he reveals that he's a host for alien symbiotes, it sends her running in the opposite direction...that is, until he catches her. Meanwhile...Will is entering yet another school midyear. He has all his usual problems: acclimate to a new school, deal with his assigned FBI agent, track a compatible human, all the while appearing the normal teenage boy. He can't believe his luck when his search leads him to Marley, a girl more agile in the woods than in a mall. He reminds himself that he can't let what happened on his last assignment happen in Pine Grove, not to her...

Notă biografică

Keith Tornheim is a biochemistry professor at Boston University School of Medicine. He was a co-winner of a Great Lakes College Association poetry contest in 1967 and is now a relapsed poet, with poems appearing in Poetica, Ibbetson Street, Boston Literary Magazine, Muddy River Poetry Review and Lyrical Somerville (The Somerville News). His poems have been a part of High Holiday and other services of his congregation (see www.shirhadash-ma.org/poetry.html). In recent years, conversations with dancer/choreographer Wendy Jehlen on her developing Lilith composition led to the writing of a poem cycle on the story of Lilith, the first consort of Adam. This instigated another poem cycle, Spoiled Fruit: Adam and Eve in Eden and Beyond, recently published by Poetica Publishing. He lives in Newton Highlands, Massachusetts, with his wife, Susan, a fiber artist and his primary critic and copy editor. Their daughters, sons-in-law and grandson live two towns away.
