Day of the Bees by Thomas Sanchez
Day of the Bees celebrates passion and creativity as it explores the links between love and violence, art and war, and reveals the sacrifices made for love--of person and country. An American art historian is seeking to discover why the famous painter Zermano abandoned his beautiful muse Louise during World War I. Visiting Louise's cottage in Provence after her death, the scholar finds letters that carry across a panoramic landscape of fifty years and piece together a tempestuous affair with tragic conclusions.Thomas W. Sanchez earned his PhD in City Planning from Georgia Tech in 1996 and has since taught at Iowa State University, Portland State University, and the University of Utah. He is currently chair and professor of Urban Affairs and Planning at Virginia Tech. Sanchez conducts research in the areas of transport equity, environmental justice, technology, and scholarly impact. He currently serves as the editor-in-chief of Housing Policy Debate, a leading journal on housing and community development policy. In 2012 he co-authored, Planning as if People Matter: Governing for Social Equity with Marc Brenman. In 2007 they co-authored The Right to Transportation: Moving to Equity. Also in 2007 he co-authored The Social Impacts of Urban Containment with Arthur C. Nelson and Casey Dawkins.
