Book Synopsis David McWilliams' Follow the Money by : David McWilliams
Download or read book David McWilliams' Follow the Money written by David McWilliams and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2009-10-22 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pope's Children are turning 30 and in the four years since David McWilliams introduced us to the generation that could have had it all, the Pope's Children have been betrayed. This book is about real people and how good people can be broken by bad economics. But it doesn't have to be like this. There is a way out. We catch up with old friends, Breakfast Roll Man and Miss Pencil Skirt, and meet new characters like the Merchant of Ennis, Shylock and the Godfather. We have late night tea with Brian Lenihan and cross swords with Seanie Fitzpatrick. We learn why the average drug dealer on the side of the street has more in common with the banker than either would care to mention, as we follow the money – in both rackets – from its source at the very top right down to the `buy now, pay later' deals at rock bottom. Why should we trust the people who got us into this mess in the first place? They were wrong then and they are wrong now. The politicians, bankers and developers think they can hand us the bill and walk away from the carnage. They want us to follow a route that will make things worse for the ordinary man on the street while saving the bankers at the top of the tree, insisting that there is no other way. But there is an obvious alternative which has been adopted by every economy that has successfully emerged from this type of crisis. Follow the Money is an optimistic and uplifting book about that alternative, which is well within our grasp if only we'd wake up and seize it. `If you want a dry economic tome, this is not the book for you. However, for analysis of post-boom Ireland, how we got here and the issues we now face, it makes a lot of serious points in an entertaining and provocative way' Sunday Business Post `This is a vivid, witty and provocative book' Richard Bruton, Irish Independent

Book Synopsis Do Angels Have Birthdays? by : Kevin Corrigan
Download or read book Do Angels Have Birthdays? written by Kevin Corrigan and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an eclectic mix of humorous, sardonic, often sad short stories about life, love, laughter and loneliness - `life's rich pageant' All the stories keep the reader guessing until the final page where an unexpected twist caps an entertaining ride with the author's enigmatic range of characters. Do superheroes get depressed? is about a young actor struggling to make a name for himself through his none-too competent agent. Were Mel and Fred funny? has many funny one-liners from a modern day `odd couple' living in up-state New York. We then travel south, down the iconic Route 66, for the story of evergreen love and a tragic blues music story in Will Billy sing the blues for me? Squeezed in between these US-located stories are Do Angels have birthdays? and Was Michael Alexander Caruso a decent poet? The former is an attempt at making sense of a near-death experience and the latter a story of missed opportunities and misunderstandings. Should he have confessed? describes the time spent by the story's protagonist in France, both in the present time of the story and during the Second World War. You may need to know a little about children's television in the 1960s to fully appreciate the plot and setting of Do puppets have feelings?, Those who are convinced that computers have a mind of their own will sympathise with the young man at the heart of the story Could you blame him? Should all bores be gagged? is about a pretentious Fleet Street journalist who eventually gets his literary come-uppance and the final story, Is November the cruellest month? is a sad tale of family separation and the quest to apprehend a serial killer. This really is a great mix of stories to suit a wide range of tastes and interests. Enjoy!
Book Synopsis Speed-Walk and Other Stories by : Suzanne Greenberg
Download or read book Speed-Walk and Other Stories written by Suzanne Greenberg and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2017-03-13 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The characters in Speed-Walk and Other Stories often find themselves dislocated, living in places that do not resemble or feel like home. Their lives have somehow been turned on their axes, and often they cannot comprehend why. The stories in this stunning debut collection are united by their protagonists' common quest to make sense of the world, to bring it into focus, to set it right, to adapt.In selecting Suzanne Greenberg's fiction for the 2003 Drue Heinz Literature Prize, Rick Moody wrote, "A charge sometimes leveled against contemporary fiction these days is that it has abrogated its responsibility to depict civilization as it actually exists. . . . Speed-Walk replies forcefully to this aesthetic error by locating its protagonists in completely recognizable environments. . . . [They] are ever engaged by the routines of American life: walking the dog, eating at the sushi bar, doing the laundry." Tightly written yet realistically spare, these stories provide a blueprint for survival when the unexpected is thrust into an ordinary life.

Perfect for fans of We Were Liars and Bone Gap. When Thisbe Locke is last seen standing on the edge of the Coronado Bridge, it looks like there is only one thing to call it. But her sister Ted is not convinced. Despite the witnesses and the police reports and the divers and the fact that she was heartbroken about the way things ended with Clay and how she humiliated herself at that party, Thisbe isn't the type of person to end up just an "incident." While everyone in town prepares to mourn the loss (some more than others), Ted and Fen, the new kid in town, set out to put the pieces together and find her sister. But if Thisbe didn't jump, what happened up on that bridge?
