Book excerpt: “Questa è una storia di compostezza, dignità e di come una famiglia abbia trasformato una tragedia senza senso in un gesto che enfatizza il lato positivo della vita.” - Robert Kiener, Reader’s Digest “Non riesco a pensare a nessun altro libro che superi Il Dono di Nicholas nell’aprire in tutto il mondo i cuori e nel cambiare l’atteggiamento verso il bene comune.” - Bud Gardner, Editore, Chicken Soup for the Writer’s Soul “In questo libro scritto dal padre del bambino, la famiglia Green condivide la sua meraviglia e gratitudine dinanzi all’effusione di emozioni scaturite dal cosiddetto ‘Effetto Nicholas’. Non possiamo fare a meno di sentirci sopraffatti sia dalla tragedia sia dalla suprema compostezza della storia.” - Family Life Magazine “La storia di Nicholas mostra il volto umano della donazione degli organi.... Altamente raccomandato.” - Library Journal “Nessuno al mondo ha fatto di più per accrescere la consapevolezza del pubblico sulla donazione degli organi.” - Howard Nathan, Presidente ed Amministratore Delegato di The Gift of Life Donor Program “Una storia che ha legato una nazione intera al cordoglio di una famiglia.” - Il Messaggero WWW.NICHOLASGREEN.ORG [Please insert photo of Reg Green – as used on back cover of “The Nicholas Effect”] Reg Green è il padre di Nicholas Green, il bambino Americano di sette anni che fu ucciso in una tentata rapita durante una vacanza in Italia con la famiglia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un titolo elisabettiano (ne ebbe di amanti la Regina Vergine) per un tentativo di rotta, di circumnavigazione di un mondo così tondo da prevedere ogni tipo di situazioni, ogni gioco di contrasti: la gloria e la vergogna, l’arroganza e l’umiltà, il martirio e la joie de vivre, l’ascesa e la caduta, il miracolo offerto da chi è stato toccato dal demone e i risultati frutto di umanissimi sforzi. Più che una storia ordinata dell’atletica, Regina di tutti gli sport, il libro di Giorgio Cimbrico propone momenti, ricordi - di riporto e diretti -, profili di belli e dannati, capaci di lasciare il segno nello sport che li accomuna e li anticipa tutti nel repertorio delle attitudini e dei gesti, nel desiderio del confronto, nelle motivazioni che germogliano. Così, l’'atletica, più che regina, diviene la smisurata strada maestra che percorre l’India: invita a percorrerla, per percorrersi dentro.

Book excerpt: As a student in college, David Kepesh styles himself as 'a rake among scholars, a scholar among rakes' - an identity that will cling to him for a lifetime. As Philip Roth follows Kapesh from the domesticity of childhood out into the vast wilderness of erotic possibility, from a ménage à trois in London to the depths of loneliness in New York, Kapesh confronts the central dilemma of pleasure: how to make a truce between dignity and desire; and how to survive the ordeal of an unhallowed existence.

Download or read book Eat the Document written by Dana Spiotta and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-02-21 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the National Book Award nominated author of Innocents and Others and Wayward, a bold and moving novel that follows a fugitive radical from the 1970s who has lived in hiding for twenty-five years and explores themes of idealism, passion, sacrifice, and the cost of living a secret. In the heyday of the 1970s underground, Bobby DeSoto and Mary Whittaker—passionate, idealistic, and in love —organize a series of radical protests against the Vietnam War. When one action goes wrong, the course of their lives is forever changed. The two must erase their past, forge new identities, and never see each other again. Now it is the 1990s. Mary lives in the suburbs with her fifteen-year-old son, who spends hours immersed in the music of his mother's generation. She has no idea where Bobby is, whether he is alive or dead. Shifting between the protests in the 1970s and the consequences of those choices in the 1990s, Dana Spiotta deftly explores the connection between the two eras—their language, technology, music, and activism. Dana Spiotta, "wonderfully observant and wonderfully gifted...with an uncanny feel for the absurdities and sadness of contemporary life" (The New York Times), has written a character-driven, brilliant, and riveting portrait of two eras and a revelatory novel about the culture of rebellion, with particular resonance now.

Book excerpt: BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY: LITERARY. The Tongue Set Free is so beautifully written. It begins wtih an extraordinary image, Canetti's earliest memory. He comes out of a room. A man makes him stick out his tongue; if he talks he will cut it off. Years later Canetti realises that this was his nursemaid's lover, frightening him into silence about their rendezvous. The idea of speaking as the entry into forbidden grown-up life dominates this book. When he is seven his father dies. He is propelled from childhood into adulthood, from his father to his mother, through language. In an extraordinary, cruel episode his mother forces him to learn perfect adult German in three months, to replace her husband as quickly as possible. His tongue is set free: he has won his mother, against brothers , against all lovers. It is the most intense Oedipal relationhsip I have ever seen described and Canetti describes it brilliantly. But it's all extraordinary, and all masterfully written.

Download or read book Three Rings written by Daniel Mendelsohn and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A memoir, biography, work of history, and literary criticism all in one, this moving book tells the story of three exiled writers—Erich Auerbach, François Fénelon, and W. G. Sebald—and their relationship with the classics, from Homer to Mimesis. In a genre-defying book hailed as “exquisite” (The New York Times) and “spectacular” (The Times Literary Supplement), the best-selling memoirist and critic Daniel Mendelsohn explores the mysterious links between the randomness of the lives we lead and the artfulness of the stories we tell. Combining memoir, biography, history, and literary criticism, Three Rings weaves together the stories of three exiled writers who turned to the classics of the past to create masterpieces of their own—works that pondered the nature of narrative itself: Erich Auerbach, the Jewish philologist who fled Hitler’s Germany and wrote his classic study of Western literature, Mimesis, in Istanbul; François Fénelon, the seventeenth-century French archbishop whose ingenious sequel to the Odyssey, The Adventures of Telemachus—a veiled critique of the Sun King and the best-selling book in Europe for a hundred years—resulted in his banishment; and the German novelist W.G. Sebald, self-exiled to England, whose distinctively meandering narratives explore Odyssean themes of displacement, nostalgia, and separation from home. Intertwined with these tales of exile and artistic crisis is an account of Mendelsohn’s struggle to write two of his own books—a family saga of the Holocaust and a memoir about reading the Odyssey with his elderly father—that are haunted by tales of oppression and wandering. As Three Rings moves to its startling conclusion, a climactic revelation about the way in which the lives of its three heroes were linked across borders, languages, and centuries forces the reader to reconsider the relationship between narrative and history, art and life.

Book excerpt: "The Nicholas Effect" is the story of the shooting of seven-year-old Nicholas Green. It tells how the Greens' decision to donate their son's organs saved the lives of five Italians and restored the sight of two others. It covers the murder trial, the making of "Nicholas' Gift," the Jamie Lee Curtis made-for-tv movie, the bell sent by Pope John Paul II to the Greens for their memorial tower and their unceasing campaign to bring attention to the tens of thousands of deaths caused every year by the worldwide shortage of donated organs. Running through it, like a thread, is the hearbreaking journey of Nicholas' parents and little sister to make something good come out of a senseless act of violence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Johnson and Petrie have produced an admirable book. Anyone who wants to make sense of Tarkovsky's films—a very difficult task in any case—must read it." —The Russian Review "This book is a model of contextual and textual analysis. . . . the Tarkovsky myth is stripped of many of its shibboleths and the thematic structure and coherence of his work is revealed in a fresh and stimulating manner." —Europe-Asia Studies "[This book,] with its wealth of new research and critical insight, has set the standard and should certainly inspire other writers to keep on trying to collectively explore the possible meanings of Tarkovsky's film world." —Canadian Journal of Film Studies "For Tarkovsky lovers as well as haters, this is an essential book. It might make even the haters reconsider." —Cineaste This definitive study, set in the context of Russian cultural history, throws new light on one of the greatest—and most misunderstood—filmmakers of the past three decades. The text is enhanced by more than 60 frame enlargements from the films.

Download or read book Mental Spaces in Grammar written by Barbara Dancygier and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-07-07 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conditional constructions have long fascinated linguists, grammarians and philosophers. In this pioneering new study, Barbara Dancygier and Eve Sweetser offer a new descriptive framework for the study of conditionality, broadening the range of richly described conditional constructions. They explore theoretical issues such as the mental-space-building processes underlying conditional thinking and the form-meaning relationship involved in expressing conditionality. Using a broad range of attested English conditional constructions, the book examines inter-constructional relationships. Within the framework of Mental Spaces Theory, shared parameters of meaning are shown to be relevant to conditional constructions generally, as well as related temporal and causal constructions. This significant contribution to the field will be welcomed by a wide range of researchers in theoretical and cognitive linguistics.

Download or read book The Imagined Immigrant written by Ilaria Serra and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using original sources--such as newspaper articles, silent movies, letters, autobiographies, and interviews--Ilaria Serra depicts a large tapestry of images that accompanied mass Italian migration to the U.S. at the turn of the twentieth century. She chooses to translate the Italian concept of immaginario with the Latin imago that felicitously blends the double English translation of the word as "imagery" and "imaginary." Imago is a complex knot of collective representations of the immigrant subject, a mental production that finds concrete expression; impalpable, yet real. The "imagined immigrant" walks alongside the real one in flesh and rags.
