Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Big Apple Diaries, a heartfelt diary-style graphic memoir by Alyssa Bermudez, a young New Yorker doodles her way through middle school—until the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack leaves her wondering if she can ever be a kid again. It’s the year 2000 in New York City. For 12-year old Alyssa, a biracial Puerto Rican girl, this means all kinds of new challenges: splitting time between her dad's apartment in Manhattan and her mom's new place in Queens, navigating the ups and downs of middle school, harboring an epic crush on a new classmate, and figuring out how to be a "real" Puerto Rican. The only way to make sense of it all is to write and draw her thoughts and worries into her diary. Then life abruptly changes on September 11, 2001. After the Twin Towers fall and so many lives are lost, her concerns about gossip, crushes, and fashion feel distant and insignificant. Alyssa must find a new sense of self and purpose amidst all of the chaos, and find strength to move forward with hope. This moving graphic memoir is based on Alyssa Bermudez's own middle school diaries.

Book Synopsis The Pfurst Family Diaries by : Richard Soares
Download or read book The Pfurst Family Diaries written by Richard Soares and published by Abbott Press. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phillip Samuel Pfurst, owner and CEO, of Pfurst Enterprises WorldWide (PEWW), sat behind his over-sized mahogany desk in the library of his Binghamton mansion. His six-year-old granddaughter Philless was perched on his desk, facing him. “Sweetie,” he said. “There’s something I want you to tell you. It might be difficult to understand right now, but in time you’ll come to realize that God created American businesses so all the poor people will have jobs. And God created the Pfurst family to run all those businesses. That’s why we sing God Bless America.” Years later, Phillip Samuel Pfurst (the “P” in his last name is silent) was crippled in a plane crash while campaigning for the presidency of the United States. Convinced that her grandfather’s ‘accident’ was the work of terrorists, Philless turns to her twin brother, Phillip the younger, to fulfill the old man’s dream of a TeraCorp headed by a Supreme Executive Officer (SEXO). Young Phillip puts aside his dream of becoming a rock’n’roll impresario and enters the world of politics. Problems arise when a number of diaries surface, questioning the Pfurst family’s history and threatening young Phillip’s run for the presidency. The Pfurst Family Diaries is a wacky, irreverent look at America’s growing political-financial complex run amok, and of Philless Pfurst-Steen’s efforts to change it into a super-efficient TeraCorp headed by a SEXO, while at the same time directing her brother’s presidential election campaign. The book gives new meaning to the old adage-a woman’s work is never done.
Book Synopsis The Bridge Diaries by : Vanessa Kane
Download or read book The Bridge Diaries written by Vanessa Kane and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the incredible story of friendship brought about by the game of Bridge. Two young women meet when their children begin Kindergarten. Their story continues as told in this book. One has a fascination for Bridge and teaches her new friend the game. We learn about the four women that play together and the absolute fun they have. There is tragedy entwined at their game table. It also includes the husbands and children as a fun group over the years. They are from very different backgrounds which we learn little of, yet it is enough. However, one of the women has a background she is unwilling to share at all. In the end, we learn why. On a trip to celebrate their "almost" 30 year friendship, Kate and Simone fly to NYC to shop, see theater and enjoy wonderful restaurants. Naturally, the Bridge cards go along for 2-handed Bridge like these two have enjoyed during their friendship. On most of the journey they are playing in the airplane. During the trip, the past thirty years is remembered by Kate, the main character in the book who is narrating the story. Kate is thinking about the present, and the past, alternating between the two time-frames, going back, and then returning to the present; back and forth. Some she keeps to herself and some she discusses with Simone. One of the husbands is a wealthy philanthropic father of twins, murdered for no reason. His father-in-law, the Chief-of Police can't solve the crime and it goes cold. It was a brutal murder for no reason. There had been a stranger lurking they knew nothing about. The book spans Kate's first marriage and takes you into her second. It takes you graphically into both bedrooms. This book does not fail to knock on any bedroom doors. In the end, much is learned about their friend that never wanted to share her past

Book excerpt: Bella is an adventurer; she has travelled the world and worked in all sorts of jobs but the thread running through her life is acting. And as an actor, studying at the Strasberg school in New York was her goal. She said about her first visit there: I asked the receptionist, 'How do you get into a school like this?' And the receptionist smiled and said, 'Don t try. It s impossible, darling.' And we both had a bit of a giggle and I said, 'Right, give me the application forms.' This is the story of how Bella took on New York - her brilliant love affair that turned sour, the friends she made, her acting and her studies and day to day life in that fabulous town. For most of us this is a dream but for Bella it s her life and she writes about it with passion but also surprise at where she has let life take her.

Book Synopsis Taking Funny Music Seriously by : Lily E. Hirsch
Download or read book Taking Funny Music Seriously written by Lily E. Hirsch and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Take funny music seriously! Though often dismissed as silly or derivative, funny music, Lily E. Hirsch argues, is incredibly creative and dynamic, serving multiple aims from the celebratory to the rebellious, the entertaining to the mentally uplifting. Music can be a rich site for humor, with so many opportunities that are ripe for a comedic left turn. Taking Funny Music Seriously includes original interviews with some of the best musical humorists, such as Tom Lehrer, "the J. D. Salinger of musical satire"; Peter Schickele, who performed as the invented composer P. D. Q. Bach, the supposed lost son of the great J. S. Bach; Kate Micucci and Riki Lindhome of the funny music duo Garfunkel and Oates; comedic film composer Theodore Shapiro; Too Slim of the country group Riders in the Sky; and musical comedian Jessica McKenna, from the podcast Off Book, part of a long line of "funny girls." With their help, Taking Funny Music Seriously examines comedy from a variety of genres and musical contexts--from bad singing to rap, classical music to country, Broadway music to film music, and even love songs and songs about death. In its coverage of comedic musical media, Taking Funny Music Seriously is an accessible and lively look at funny music. It offers us a chance to appreciate more fully the joke in music and the benefits of getting that joke--especially in times of crisis--including comfort, catharsis, and connection.
