Book Synopsis Near to the Wild Heart by : Clarice Lispector
Download or read book Near to the Wild Heart written by Clarice Lispector and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new translation of Clarice Lispector's sensational first book tells the story of a middle class woman's life from childhood through an unhappy marriage and its dissolution to transcendence. Near to the Wild Heart, published in Rio de Janeiro in 1943, introduced Brazil to what one writer called “Hurricane Clarice”: a twenty-three-year-old girl who wrote her first book in a tiny rented room and then baptized it with a title taken from Joyce: “He was alone, unheeded, near to the wild heart of life.” The book was an unprecedented sensation — the discovery of a genius. Narrative epiphanies and interior monologue frame the life of Joana, from her middle-class childhood through her unhappy marriage and its dissolution to transcendence, when she proclaims: “I shall arise as strong and comely as a young colt.”
Book Synopsis Close to Her Heart by : CJ Carmichael
Download or read book Close to Her Heart written by CJ Carmichael and published by Tule Publishing Group. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dani Carrigan has always relied on logic when making important life decisions, but when she discovers she's pregnant - and that there's a chance her baby may be born "not perfect"-- logic lets her down. It would help if the baby's father would pop the question, but widowed father Adrian seems more interested in protecting his six-year-old daughter than committing to his new relationship with Dani. The last time she felt this alone and scared was when she was 16 and her mother died, leaving Dani to raise her younger sisters with precious little help from her distant and disapproving rancher father. She felt so inadequate then, but is she any more prepared to be a mother now? Support comes from an unlikely source. Dani always saw her next-door neighbour and friend, divorce attorney Elliot Gilmore, as a charming, handsome, playboy-type. But with each challenge she faces, from pregnancy, to delivery and beyond--Elliot reveals himself a better man than she ever guessed. Is it possible that Elliot hasn't been playing the field--but waiting for her?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his forties, Malcolm gave up his job in suburban Glasgow when a persistent seed that had been growing inside him started to bloom, disrupting the foundations of his life. When he saw the job advert, 'urgent: island doctor needed', he applied immediately. What he didn't anticipate was how much Orkney would affect his family, for better or worse. In stories that range from the humorous to the deeply moving, Malcolm describes what it's like adjusting to life without modern conveniences and to the extreme - and constantly changing - weather; and what it means to be providing the best medical care to the local population with limited resources. Which often includes the wildlife as well ...Malcolm's journey evokes the awe that the Orkney landscape can inspire, as well as the challenges of island life and the demons that the dark, cold winter months can give birth to. Gripping and beautifully written, Close to Where the Heart Gives Out reminds us of the importance of listening to our heart, as well as to the rhythms of the landscape.
Book Synopsis Close to the Sun by : Stuart Jamieson
Download or read book Close to the Sun written by Stuart Jamieson and published by RosettaBooks. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A surgeon internationally recognized for his expertise in heart and lung transplants . . . writes with assurance and aplomb about his achievements.” —Kirkus Reviews Stuart Jamieson has lived two lives. One began in heat and dust. Born to British ex-pats in colonial Africa, Jamieson was sent at the age of eight to a local boarding school, where heartless instructors bullied and tormented their students. In the summers he escaped to fish on crocodile-infested rivers and explore the African bush. As a teenager, an apprenticeship with one of Africa’s most fabled trackers taught Jamieson how to deal with dangerous game and even more dangerous poachers, lessons that would later serve him well in the high-stakes career he chose. Jamieson’s second life unfolded when he went to London to study medicine during the turbulent 1960s, leaving behind the only home he knew as it descended into revolution. Brilliant and self-assured, Jamieson advanced quickly in the still-new field of open-heart surgery. It was a fraught time. For patients with terminal heart disease, heart transplants were the new hope. But poor outcomes had all but ended the procedure. In 1978 Jamieson came to America and to Stanford—the only cardiac center in the world doing heart transplants successfully. Here, Jamieson’s pioneering work on the anti-rejection drug cyclosporin would help to make heart transplantation a routine life-saving operation, that is still in practice today as he continues to train the next generation of heart surgeons. Stuart Jamieson’s story is the story of four decades of advances in heart surgery. “Every reader interested in the history behind one of medicine’s riskiest procedures will find it fascinating.” —Booklist

Book Synopsis Close To My Heart by : Sushma Malhotra
Download or read book Close To My Heart written by Sushma Malhotra and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Close to my Heart is an odyssey of my life with love for nature, time spent with my family, personal relations, pains of waiting, separating, and joys of meeting. Most of the poems are vivid imagery, deeply passionate and come straight from the core of my heart. A reader can connect to any poem and experience the same feelings during their lifetime. The mood in the Close to my Heart reflects a variety of experiences of contentment, regret, delight, loneliness, separation and ecstasy in personal, professional, and emotional life. I did not follow any traditional regular poetic scheme; however the flow of the verse sounds rhythmic. Some poems are short and some are long, yet remain focused on a particular theme and topic. Usually it's the rejection, abandonment and the solitude that turns you to Almighty. Nowhere it is mentioned in the book; however a reader can perceive my trust and subservience to the Omnipotent. Occasionally it takes many pages to express one's thoughts but anthology Close to my Heart is a squeezed collection of my poems with myriad thoughts and scores of experiences. Any critique or analyst can spend years paraphrasing those thoughts into writing. For a reader's convenience, anthology is divided into very succinct six sections: Realization, Nature, Prayers, Connection, Charismatic Kullu, and Close to my Heart.

Book Synopsis Soldier's Heart by : William Schroder
Download or read book Soldier's Heart written by William Schroder and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-07-30 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living in the shadowy interior of the brain's limbic system and invisible to the untrained eye, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder can not only torture its victims for a lifetime, but reaches beyond victims to negatively influence family members and loved ones. Soldier's Heart, titled after one of the early names for PTSD, delves into the lives of otherwise normal American veterans who, seemingly for no reason, display lasting patterns of bad choices and erratic, self-destructive behavior. Analysis of the life portraits of combat veterans brings the myriad symptoms of PTSD to light, equipping the lay reader to recognize the disorder and gain a thorough understanding that can be the foundation for steps to facilitate healing. Four men and one woman who served in Vietnam describe how PTSD still tears at their lives 30 years later. The symptoms of PTSD are conveyed in non-technical language by the veterans featured in this absorbing work, presented by authors Schroder and Dawe, both Vietnam veterans and, respectively, now a writer-businessman and a mental health counselor. To fully explore the lifelong effects of war trauma in the 20th century, the focus must be on Vietnam veterans, explain Schroder and Dawe. Profound statements on the human condition, the narratives of the five featured veterans, from across branches of the military, offer emotional and intellectual comfort to millions of Americans whose relatives and friends have served the country in time of war. This book, which also includes a glossary of military terms, will be of interest to veterans and their families, as well as to counselors, therapists, psychologists, veteran care workers and students of studies in trauma, psychopthology, and treatment. These are more than war stories, because for these veterans the lingering war is internal—and it may never end.
