Download or read book Rockaway Blue written by Larry Kirwan and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When terrorists attacked on September 11, 2001, Lieutenant Brian Murphy rescued seven people from the World Trade Center. Even as steel girders buckled and groaned, Brian rushed back up the stairs of the North Tower in search of those in need. He died a hero, one of more than four hundred police officers, firefighters, and other first responders who perished that fateful day. Three years later, Vietnam veteran and retired NYPD detective-sergeant Jimmy Murphy is on a mission to find the truth behind his son's death. Why was Brian in the tower that morning? Had he anticipated the attack? Suspecting a cover-up of a deeper truth, Jimmy must confront his family, friends, and old colleagues in the police department to discover what happened to Brian and who his eldest son really was. Murphy's investigation takes him from his home turf in the Irish American enclave of Rockaway Beach to Muslim Atlantic Avenue and beyond in order to find his own truth about 9/11. Dry-eyed and determined, Murphy battles barstool patriotism, the NYPD blue wall of silence, and a ticking clock—all the while haunted by his own secrets and the raw memory of his difficult relationship with his dead son. Written by author and musician Larry Kirwan, Rockaway Blue is a thrilling and poignant story of a family struggling to pull itself together after an unthinkable trauma.

Download or read book From Rockaway written by Jill Eisenstadt and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timmy and Chowderhead and Peg are lifeguards. They spend summers sitting in those tall chairs, smoking dope and staring at the waves, swatting insects, tormenting seagulls. Winters they work shit jobs like unloading trucks at Mickey's Deli. At night, winter and summer, they drink. Drink and get rowdy. Then there's Alex, the girl who gets away, not only from old boyfriend Timmy but also from "Rotaway"-on scholarship to a rich-kid's college in New England. One midsummer night when the four are reunited, tensions erupt in feats of daring and self-destruction during the wild, cathartic, near-sacred lifeguard ritual known as the Death Keg. Brilliantly capturing the restlessness and casual nihilism of working-class youth with no options, Jill Eisenstadt's acclaimed first novel startles in its power and originality, its depth of feeling, its bright and dark comic turns.
Download or read book Blue Opera Rock written by Bob J. Zehmer and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let the music take you into another dimension as Blue Opera Rock introduces Jarod, a sensitive man of the arts. As Jarod is flying home to Barcelona, he hears some music and reflects back on his life, including life in London in the raucous 1980s. Although Jarod loves music and literature, he is also sensitive to social problems. He opposes exploitation of any kind and dreams of a future free from all forms of tyranny. Jarod envisions a world united for all people, no matter where they come from, as long as they are willing to build a socially just society. Driven by musical magic and narrated with stunning rock lyrics, Blue Opera Rock sings the praises of living a joyous life, while enjoying the fruits of peace and freedom, all to the beat of a world existing in perfect harmony. Political intrigue, philosophy, economics, history and social issues are set to a beat where rock music is truly the central character. Author Bob J. Zehmer was motivated to write this novel about rock and roll and its implications in social issues because democracies are frail and always at risk. He based many of the characters on acquaintances. Zehmer lives in Spain and Italy and has started on his next book. Publisher's website: http: //www.eloquentbooks.com/BlueOperaRock.htm
