Excerpt "At eleven o'clock of a moist night in December, Gregory Parr was making his way far westward on Twenty-third Street. At his right hand stretched that famous old row of dignified dwellings with pilasters and little front yards, and ahead of him was Tenth Avenue, the stronghold of the Irish. The wet pavements glistened under the street lamps, and the smell of influenza was in the air. The street was deserted except for a cross-town car at long intervals, hurling itself blithely through the night on a flat wheel."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hubert slammed the front door of his home as he entered. Alarmed at the sudden impact Marcella glanced up from the book she was reading to look askance, at her husband. Reclined upon the sofa in a most redolent manner she had been rudely interrupted from an exciting para -graph of her book. Swift to read Hubert’s frame of mind she anxiously queried, “Did you have a bad day today, or did someone upset your apple cart? You realize you scared me half to death.” “No, it wasn’t really a bad day. I’m just angry at myself. No, I’m not angry at anyone else.” “Well, it’s a good thing it isn’t due to anything I’ve done. I would hate to be in your bad books. I’ve been there before as you should realize,” half in jest Marcella viewed her husband with compassion. “No, I’m only angry at myself. I thought, and perhaps my pride got in the way, that I was well versed in history; However, today my students stumped me with their questions. It happened in the second class this afternoon that Cynthia Harvard asked a leading question. She placed me in a quandary with her question of why the political scenario is so shaky these days.” Hubert took pride in his knowledge of mankind’s history and this was why he had been upset. His egotism had been challenged by a question for which he had no answer. This particular class was a challenge to teach for it was a clever class with a broad knowledge of current events.

Book Synopsis Last Car Over the Sagamore Bridge by : Peter Orner
Download or read book Last Car Over the Sagamore Bridge written by Peter Orner and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2013-08-06 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Orner zeroes in on the strange ways our memories define us: A woman's husband dies before their divorce is finalized; a man runs for governor of Illinois and loses much more than an election; two brothers play beneath the infamous bridge at Chappaquiddick. Employing the masterful compression for which he has been widely praised, Orner presents a kaleidoscope of individual lives viewed in startling, intimate close-up. Whether writing of Geraldo Rivera's attempt to reveal the contents of Al Capone's vault or of a father and daughter trying to outrun a hurricane, Orner illuminates universal themes. In stories that span considerable geographic ground -- from Chicago to Wyoming, from Massachusetts to the Czech Republic -- he writes of the past we can't seem to shake, the losses we can't make up for, and the power of our stories to help us reclaim what we thought was gone forever. "A ravishing collection, full of wisdom, grief, beauty, and especially surprise." -- Anthony Doerr, author of The Shell Collectors

Book Synopsis New York Cab Driver and His Fare by : Charles Vidich
Download or read book New York Cab Driver and His Fare written by Charles Vidich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using information derived from research and interviews with cab drivers, Vidich has written a basic work on New York City cab drivers (hacks) that also provides passengers (fares) with a survival manual. Cab drivers are quoted by newspaper columnists, politicians, and at dinner parties; yet a hard look at the profession and its role in the transportation system of the city has been completely lacking. Vidich brings out in clear language the conflicts between the cab driver's position as a dispenser of a public service and his needs as a working person subjected to violence and pressure. It is difficult to imagine a more enjoyable introduction to an industry whose members are a folk tradition. At the same time, this book provides insight into the history and sociology of an important urban institution. It is a book about cab drivers everywhere; and cab drivers and fares in all cities have a new handbook in this volume.
