Download or read book Shanda written by Letty Cottin Pogrebin and published by Post Hill Press. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The richness of Pogrebin’s stories, the complexity and beauty of her storytelling, and her devastatingly honest soul-baring make Shanda a powerfully stunning piece of life and art.” —Mayim Bialik, actor, author, neuroscientist, and co-host of Jeopardy The word “shanda” is defined as shame or disgrace in Yiddish. This book, Shanda, tells the story of three generations of complicated, intense 20th-century Jews for whom the desire to fit in and the fear of public humiliation either drove their aspirations or crushed their spirit. In her deeply engaging, astonishingly candid memoir, author and activist Letty Cottin Pogrebin exposes the fiercely-guarded lies and intricate cover-ups woven by dozens of members of her extended family. Beginning with her own long-suppressed secret, the story spirals through the hidden lives of her parents and relatives—revealing the truth about their origins, personal traumas, marital misery, abandoned children, religious transgressions, sexual identity, radical politics, and supposedly embarrassing illnesses. While unmasking their charades and disguises, Pogrebin also showcases her family’s remarkable talent for reinvention in a narrative that is, by turns, touching, searing, and surprisingly universal.

Book Synopsis The Hazards of Good Fortune by : Seth Greenland
Download or read book The Hazards of Good Fortune written by Seth Greenland and published by Europa Editions. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An entertaining tale rich in schadenfreude as bad things happen to a hapless billionaire” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). Jay Gladstone was born to privilege. He is a civic leader and a generous philanthropist, as well as the owner of an NBA team. But in today’s New York, even a wealthy man’s life can spin out of control, no matter the money or influence he possesses. Jay sees himself as a moral man, determined not to repeat his father’s mistakes. He would rather focus on his unstable second marriage and his daughter, Aviva, than worry about questions of race or privilege. However, he moves through a sensitive and aware world: that of Dag Maxwell, the black star forward, and white police officer Russell Plesko, who makes a decision that has resonating consequences—particularly for a DA whose hopes for a future in politics will rest on an explosive prosecution. Set during Barack Obama’s presidency, this artful novel illuminates contemporary America and does not shy away from questions about our scalding social divide—why is conversation about race so fraught, to what degree is the justice system impartial, and does great wealth inoculate those who have it?—and explores the aftermath of unforgivable errors and the unpredictability of the court of public opinion. “Greenland takes a Dickensian delight in letting the plot sprawl with parallels, digressions, false leads, and twists.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “A wild and funny page-turner of a novel that grabs you and doesn’t let go.” —Larry David

Download or read book DOL written by Lois Silverstein and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-03-31 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DOL is a unique and gripping novel, both humorous and tragic. Lois Silverstein is an extraordinary writer: her incredible imaginative powers and vivid prose bring her troubled, complex characters to life in an unforgettable way. Thomas Rosbrow, Ph.D., Psychoanalyst, San Francisco Stunning. A bravura performance on family and abortion. Memorable and individualized characters, the time and place exact. Every page riveted me. I couldn’t put it down. Martha Gold, Sculptor, New York City Some authors make a character’s ethnicity or neuroses understandable by softening the character; Silverstein’s characters are who they are. Initially approaching them is difficult but once inside their differentness, you reap the reward. Frederick C. Coleman, M.D., Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine, Madison, Wisconsin What impresses most about DOL is the unique and complex architecture that both carries the weight of the story and deepens characterization. Arnie Lesser is exceptionally well-drawn. Daniel J. Langton, QUERENCIA, San Francisco
