Book Synopsis The Man Who Loved Children by : Christina Stead
Download or read book The Man Who Loved Children written by Christina Stead and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2012-10-23 with total page 733 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This crazy, gorgeous family novel” written at the end of the Great Depression “is one of the great literary achievements of the twentieth century” (Jonathan Franzen, The New York Times). First published in 1940, The Man Who Loved Children was rediscovered in 1965 thanks to the poet Randall Jarrell’s eloquent introduction (included in this ebook edition), which compares Christina Stead to Leo Tolstoy. Today, it stands as a masterpiece of dysfunctional family life. In a country crippled by the Great Depression, Sam and Henny Pollit have too much—too much contempt for one another, too many children, too much strain under endless obligation. Flush with ego and chilling charisma, Sam torments and manipulates his children in an esoteric world of his own imagining. Henny looks on desperately, all too aware of the madness at the root of her husband’s behavior. And Louie, the damaged, precocious adolescent girl at the center of their clashes, is the “ugly duckling” whose struggle will transfix contemporary readers. Named one of the best novels of the twentieth century by Newsweek, Stead’s semiautobiographical work reads like a Depression-era The Glass Castle. In the New York Times, Jonathan Franzen wrote of this classic, “I carry it in my head the way I carry childhood memories; the scenes are of such precise horror and comedy that I feel I didn’t read the book so much as live it.”

How far would you go to save your family? As soon as Gail and John Durbin bring home their adopted baby Maya, she becomes the glue that mends their fractured marriage. But the Durbin’s social worker, Paige, can’t find the teenage birth mother to sign the consent forms. By law, Carli has seventy-two hours to change her mind. Without her signature, the adoption will unravel. Carli is desperate to pursue her dreams, so giving her baby a life with the Durbins’ seems like the right choice—until her own mother throws down an ultimatum. Soon Carli realizes how few choices she has. As the hours tick by, Paige knows that the Durbins’ marriage won’t survive the loss of Maya, but everyone’s life is shattered when they—and baby Maya—disappear without a trace. Filled with heartrending turns, Other People’s Children is a “heartbreakingly dark, suspenseful exploration of the boundaries two women push to have a child” (Cara Wall, bestselling author of The Dearly Beloved) that you’ll find impossible to put down.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fates of the volatile Middle East and superpower United States weave together. Jason Masters is the American counterintelligence expert driven by ghosts of his past. He is alarmed by the rise of a new and powerful Islamic cleric, Saladin. While Saladin preaches peace and understanding, he also has the ability to control a flood of fanatical followers. This warns of an impending terrorist threat Jason cannot ignore. Jem Bel, a devout Sunni and simple farmer, is caught in the turmoil. He suffers the inconsolable loss of his wife and children, too frequent among the inhabitants of the Middle East. His life is dramatically changed, and his own dedication to peace is sorely tested as he is recruited by terrorists. Jason engages Delia Landis, an exotic and beautiful woman, to help him penetrate Saladin's organization. While she is willing to help Jason, Delia is convinced of Saladin's goodwill. She also exerts an unnerving and wonderful effect on the rational and tightly controlled American. As Jason continues to investigate, he finds real danger to the United States from Saladin's followers, while Saladin himself may be a powerful proponent of peace. The truth is revealed, but will it be in time to prevent the tragedy that Jason has fought so hard to prevent? Gregory Konrath, M.D., is an orthopaedic surgeon living in Lafayette, Indiana. He is fellowship-trained in orthopaedic trauma but currently practices general orthopaedic surgery. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, he is proud to call the Midwest his home. He is the fortunate father of three active children. Dr. Konrath has traveled extensively and enjoys the study of military history. He is active in mountaineering, hiking, and watching the Chicago Bears during the football season. He is foolish enough to participate in the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, and give his children unlimited text messaging on their cell phones. On December 28th, 2009, he finished climbing the Seven Summits, the tallest mountain on each of the seven continents.
Book Synopsis The Wise Men of Chelm and the Foolish Carp by : Isaac Bashevis Singer
Download or read book The Wise Men of Chelm and the Foolish Carp written by Isaac Bashevis Singer and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-19 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Chelm community leader, Gronam Ox, is given a live carp in honour of his great wisdom, he is delighted. He knows, of course, that eating the brain of a carp increases wisdom and that the size of the tail is indicative of the size of the brain. But when the carp uses that very tail to slap him across the face - in what can only have been a deliberate act - Gronam Ox is shocked. Surely no Chelm carp would have behaved in such an appalling manner. There is nothing else for it; the carp must be punished.While Gronam Ox ponders the most fitting punishment, the carp is fed and looked after in a large tub of water stationed in the town centre. It is essential that the carp survives until the day of judgement but Gronam Ox's deliberations are taking quite some time. The carp grows fatter and fatter until finally, many months later, Gronam Ox arrives at an apt sentence - one so clever that all the people of Chelm flock to see it exacted. The carp must be drowned.Written for children by the master storyteller, and former Nobel Laureate, Isaac Bashevis Singer, this classic Yiddish folktale is infused with his signature humour, warmth and wisdom. This beautifully illustrated new publication will bring the famously foolish people of Chelm to life for a new generation of children.
Book Synopsis City of the Uncommon Thief by : Lynne Bertrand
Download or read book City of the Uncommon Thief written by Lynne Bertrand and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dark and intricate fantasy, City of the Uncommon Thief is the story of a quarantined city gripped by fear and of the war that can free it. "Guilders work. Foundlings scrub the bogs. Needles bind. Swords tear. And men leave. There is nothing uncommon in this city. I hope Errol Thebes is dead. We both know he is safer that way." In a walled city of a mile-high iron guild towers, many things are common knowledge: No book in any of the city's libraries reveals its place on a calendar or a map. No living beasts can be found within the city's walls. And no good comes to the guilder or foundling who trespasses too far from their labors. Even on the tower rooftops, where Errol Thebes and the rest of the city's teenagers pass a few short years under an open sky, no one truly believes anything uncommon is possible within the city walls. But one guildmaster has broken tradition to protect her child, and now the whole city faces an uncommon threat: a pair of black iron spikes that has the power of both sword and needle on the rib cages of men has gone missing, but the mayhem they cause rises everywhere. If the spikes are not found, no wall will be high enough to protect the city—or the world beyond it. And Errol Thebes? He's not dead and he's certainly not safe.
