Book Synopsis All God's Dangers by : Theodore Rosengarten
Download or read book All God's Dangers written by Theodore Rosengarten and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-07-31 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nate Shaw's father was born under slavery. Nate Shaw was born into a bondage that was only a little gentler. At the age of nine, he was picking cotton for thirty-five cents an hour. At the age of forty-seven, he faced down a crowd of white deputies who had come to confiscate a neighbor's crop. His defiance cost him twelve years in prison. This triumphant autobiography, assembled from the eighty-four-year-old Shaw's oral reminiscences, is the plain-spoken story of an “over-average” man who witnessed wrenching changes in the lives of Southern black people—and whose unassuming courage helped bring those changes about.

Book Synopsis Nowhere Near Normal by : Traci Foust
Download or read book Nowhere Near Normal written by Traci Foust and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-04-05 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the bestselling tradition of Augusten Burroughs, a compassionate, witty, and completely candid memoir that chronicles growing up with obsessive-compulsive disorder. When all the neighborhood kids were playing outdoors, seven-year-old Traci Foust was inside making sure the miniature Catholic saint statues on her windowsill always pointed north, scratching out bald patches on her scalp, and snapping her fingers after every utterance of the word God. As Traci grew older, her OCD blossomed to include panic attacks and bizarre behaviors, including a fear of the sun, an obsession with contracting eradicated diseases, and the idea that she could catch herself on fire just by thinking about it. While stints of therapy -- and lots of Nyquil -- sometimes helped, nothing alleviated the fact that her single mother and mid-life crisis father had no idea how to deal with her. Traci Foust shares her wacky and compelling journey with brutal honesty, from becoming a teenage runaway on the poetry slam beat in the hippie beach towns of Northern California to living at a family-owned nursing home, in a room with a seventy-five- year-old WWII Vet who kept mistaking her for a prostitute. In this funny, frenetic, and wonderfully dark-humored account of her struggles with a variety of psychological disorders, Traci ultimately concludes that there is nothing special about being “normal.”

Book Synopsis Southern Comforts by : Sudye Cauthen
Download or read book Southern Comforts written by Sudye Cauthen and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Florida I love is perishing, says Sudye Cauthen. In Southern Comforts, this fifth-generation Floridian blends memoir, oral history, and cultural geography to explore the tensions between community and environment in America today and her own ambivalence about Alachua, the place just north of Gainesville where she was born and reared. Cauthen raises a cry for all that is lost as Florida's--and America's--landscapes and traditions are replaced by interstates, condos, shopping malls, and the new way of life they represent. Part self-reflection, part meditation, and part social analysis, Cauthen's work threads through the stories of blacks, whites, and Native Americans--men and women--including her own family members. Through their words and hers, Cauthen explores northern Florida's unique history, culture, and geography while she seeks a greater understanding of herself and her surroundings. Cauthen's journey takes readers down dirt roads and city streets, to her people's tobacco fields and churches. She sifts sand at an archaeological dig for the lost Spanish mission of Santa Fe de Toloca, peers into an aboriginal grave, and everywhere marshals evidence for the primacy of place in determining who we are. One story takes us on a fox hunt; another reveals lingering racial problems. Permeating the book is the ever-present menace of growth and development and what it holds for Cauthen's Florida.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of Nearly All the Men in Lagos Are Mad comes a powerful polyphonic novel about family secrets, judgmental aunties, and Brazilian butt lifts. Freshly out of university, 20-year-old Temi has a clear plan for her future: she is going to surgically enlarge her backside like all the other Nigerian women, move from Ile-Ife to Lagos, and meet a man who will love her senseless. When she finally finds the courage to tell her mother, older sister, and aunties, at the funeral of her beloved father, her announcement causes an uproar - because in Nigerian families, none of your business is private. Not even if it’s about your bumbum. But as each of the other women try to cure Temi of what they consider to be insanity, the long-buried secrets that bind and separate them are spilled in the process. In the end, it seems like Temi might be the sanest of them all… In Only Big Bumbum Matters Tomorrow, Damilare Kuku brings her signature humor, boldness, and compassion to each member of this loveable but exasperating family, whose lives reveal the ways in which a woman’s physical appearance can dictate her life and relationships and show just how sharp the double-edged sword of beauty can be. Praise for Only Big Bumbum Matters Tomorrow: 'Damilare Kuku, queen of the banging book title, knows how complicated it is to be a Nigerian woman. This book explores themes weightier than any BBL but never preaches. Kuku made me giggle and gasp. I loved it' Nikki May, author of Wahala and This Motherless Land 'In her latest work Only Big Bumbum Matters Tomorrow, Kuku paints a vibrant intergenerational portrait of the female condition in Nigeria... Funny, fierce, and heartfelt!' Chioma Okereke, author of Bitter Leaf & Water Baby ‘Both tender and hilarious, Only Big Bumbum Matters Tomorrow addresses the impossible decisions that women in patriarchal societies have to make. Damilare Kuku is an enthralling storyteller, handling the boisterous harmony of this multigenerational cast of female characters with compassion and flair’ Jendella Benson, author of Hope & Glory

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

I Hear Smoke! is an explicit reminder to some readers of positive and not so positive nostalgia from their childhood. About the Author Dr. Sherry A. White has lived in the south all of her life, making her an expert in the field of southernism culture. She currently resides in Pensacola, Florida. Dr. White is a proud graduate of the University of Alabama. She has worked as CEO for a charity serving children and adults with developmental disabilities for the past thirty plus years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses how the Porch Community helped me locate my writing voice. The Porch Community is located in the City of Nashville-Davidson County, comprising a cross-section of writers. These writers share a mutual interest in becoming more effective writers. The Porch was cofounded by two accomplished writers, Susannah Felts and Katie McDougall. I composed a sermon as a tribute to how they impacted me through my association as a member of the Porch.
