Book Synopsis The Woman Who Can't Forget by : Jill Price
Download or read book The Woman Who Can't Forget written by Jill Price and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-12-09 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jill Price has the first diagnosed case of a memory condition called "hyperthymestic syndrome" -- the continuous, automatic, autobiographical recall of every day of her life since she was fourteen. Give her any date from that year on, and she can almost instantly tell you what day of the week it was, what she did on that day, and any major world event or cultural happening that took place, as long as she heard about it that day. Her memories are like scenes from home movies, constantly playing in her head, backward and forward, through the years; not only does she make no effort to call her memories to mind, she cannot stop them. The Woman Who Can't Forgetis the beautifully written and moving story of Jill's quest to come to terms with her extraordinary memory, living with a condition that no one understood, including her, until the scientific team who studied her finally charted the extraordinary terrain of her abilities. As we learn of Jill's struggles first to realize how unusual her memory is and then to contend, as she grows up, with the unique challenges of not being able to forget -- remembering both the good times and the bad, the joyous and the devastating, in such vivid and insistent detail -- the way her memory works is contrasted to a wealth of discoveries about the workings of normal human memory and normal human forgetting. Intriguing light is shed on the vital role of what's called "motivated forgetting"; as well as theories about childhood amnesia, the loss of memory for the first two to three years of our lives; the emotional content of memories; and the way in which autobiographical memories are normally crafted into an ever-evolving and empowering life story.
Book Synopsis The Woman Who Could Not Forget by : Ying-Ying Chang
Download or read book The Woman Who Could Not Forget written by Ying-Ying Chang and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poignant story of the life and death of world-famous author and historian Iris Chang, as told by her mother. Iris Chang's bestselling book, The Rape of Nanking, forever changed the way we view the Second World War in Asia. It all began with a photo of a river choked with the bodies of hundreds of Chinese civilians that shook Iris to her core. Who were these people? Why had this happened and how could their story have been lost to history? She could not shake that image from her head. She could not forget what she had seen. A few short years later, Chang revealed this "second Holocaust" to the world. The Japanese atrocities against the people of Nanking were so extreme that a Nazi party leader based in China actually petitioned Hitler to ask the Japanese government to stop the massacre. But who was this woman that single-handedly swept away years of silence, secrecy and shame? Her mother, Ying-Ying, provides an enlightened and nuanced look at her daughter, from Iris' home-made childhood newspaper, to her early years as a journalist and later, as a promising young historian, her struggles with her son's autism and her tragic suicide. The Woman Who Could Not Forget cements Iris' legacy as one of the most extraordinary minds of her generation and reveals the depth and beauty of the bond between a mother and daughter.

Book Synopsis I Love Russia by : Elena Kostyuchenko
Download or read book I Love Russia written by Elena Kostyuchenko and published by Random House Canada. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Elena Kostyuchenko is an important guide to the 21st century." —Timothy Snyder, author of The Road to Unfreedom "A fascinating, frightening, compulsively readable chronicle of life in Putin's Russia." —Carol Off, author of All We Leave Behind To be a journalist is to tell the truth. I Love Russia is Elena Kostyuchenko's fearless attempt to document Putin's Russia as experienced by those it systematically and brutally erases: village girls recruited into sex work, queer people in the outer provinces; patients and doctors in a Ukrainian maternity ward; and reporters like herself, at risk not only because of her work but because she lived openly as a queer woman and LGBTQ activist in a deeply homophobic state. It takes us to places that non-Russians have never seen and brings us voices we have never heard. At once uncompromising and deeply humane, her book stitches together reportage and personal essays into a kaleidoscopic, often otherworldly journey. Here is Russia as it is, not as we imagine it. I Love Russia may be the last work from her homeland Kostyuchenko will publish for a long time—perhaps ever. She writes as she does, because she is driven by the conviction that the greatest form of love and patriotism is criticism. And because the threat of Putin's Russia extends beyond herself, beyond Crimea and beyond Ukraine.
Download or read book Two Women written by Alexander Logan and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sylvie Lemercier is an intelligent, attractive, and "sportive" forty-year-old whose husband, Nicholas, has just been murdered. Born in rural New Zealand, she retains something of an appealing naivete distilled by a discerning mind. But after his death, Sylvie discovers, with reluctant fascination, more about Nicholas than she ever could have imagined. Nicholas and Sylvie meet the day the Berlin Wall came down when Sylvie was only twenty-one. "Her mind coveted the new politics as much as her body yearned for sexual adventure. Sylvie's optimistic sense of history had not yet ripened into any kind of caution. A sense of longing that she couldn't quite comprehend conspired with the moment. She welcomed the caresses that seduced her. Submission had never been so pleasurable." Nicolas turns out to be a womanizer who participated in art theft with ex-members of the infamous Stasi, the East German Secret Police. He managed to stay just one step ahead of the law, but years later his past finally catches up. Sylvie receives an unexpected visit from a friend of Nicholas, revealing more unpalatable truths of her dead husband's past. She travels to France and Berlin, to discover yet even more secrets, ex-lovers and, ultimately, her husband's killer. This explosive novel takes unexpected turns as it reaches its hopeful and poignant climax.
