A saint from Texas : a novel / Edmund White. by White, Edmund, 1940- Bloomsbury Publishing, 2020. Call #: FICTION WHI Subjects Twin sisters -- Fiction.   Interpersonal relations -- Fiction.   Families -- Texas -- Fiction.   Nuns -- Fiction.   Lesbians -- Fiction.   Texas, East -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781635572551 (hc.) Description:  288 p. ; 25 cm. Summary:  "Yvette and Yvonne Crawford are twin sisters, born on a humble patch of East Texas prairie but bound for far grander fates. Just as an untold fortune of oil lies beneath their daddy's land, both girls harbor their own secrets and dreams-ones that will carry them far from Texas and from each other. As the decades unfold, Yvonne will ascend the highest ranks of Parisian society as Yvette gives herself to a lifetime of worship and service in the streets of Jericó, Colombia. And yet, even as they remake themselves in their radically different lives, the twins find that the bonds of family and the past are unbreakable. Spanning the 1950s to the recent past, Edmund White's marvelous novel serves up an immensely pleasurable epic of two Texas women as their lives traverse varied worlds: the swaggering opulence of the Dallas nouveau riche, the airless pretention of the Paris gratin, and the strict piety of a Colombian convent."--Provided by publisher.
