Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “If you enjoyed An American Marriage by Tayari Jones, read The Care and Feeding of Ravenously Hungry Girls...an absorbing commentary on love, family and forgiveness.”—The Washington Post “A fast-paced, intriguing story...the novel’s real achievement is its uncommon perceptiveness on the origins and variations of addiction.”—The New York Times Book Review One of the most anticipated reads of 2019 from Vogue, Vanity Fair, Washington Post, Buzzfeed, Essence, Bustle, HelloGiggles and Cosmo! “The Mothers meets An American Marriage” (HelloGiggles) in this dazzling debut novel about mothers and daughters, identity and family, and how the relationships that sustain you can also be the ones that consume you. The Butler family has had their share of trials—as sisters Althea, Viola, and Lillian can attest—but nothing prepared them for the literal trial that will upend their lives. Althea, the eldest sister and substitute matriarch, is a force to be reckoned with and her younger sisters have alternately appreciated and chafed at her strong will. They are as stunned as the rest of the small community when she and her husband, Proctor, are arrested, and in a heartbeat the family goes from one of the most respected in town to utter disgrace. The worst part is, not even her sisters are sure exactly what happened. As Althea awaits her fate, Lillian and Viola must come together in the house they grew up in to care for their sister’s teenage daughters. What unfolds is a stunning portrait of the heart and core of an American family in a story that is as page-turning as it is important.

Book Synopsis The Absurd Man: Poems by : Major Jackson
Download or read book The Absurd Man: Poems written by Major Jackson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this knock-out collection, Major Jackson savors the complexity between perception and reality, the body and desire, accountability and judgment. Inspired by Albert Camus’s seminal Myth of Sisyphus, Major Jackson’s fifth volume subtly configures the poet as “absurd hero” and plunges headfirst into a search for stable ground in an unstable world. We follow Jackson’s restless, vulnerable speaker as he ponders creation in the face of meaninglessness, chronicles an increasingly technological world and the difficulty of social and political unity, probes a failed marriage, and grieves his lost mother with a stunning, lucid lyricism. The arc of a man emerges; he bravely confronts his past, including his betrayals and his mistakes, and questions who he is as a father, as a husband, as a son, and as a poet. With intense musicality and verve, The Absurd Man also faces outward, finding refuge in intellectual and sensuous passions. At once melancholic and jubilant, Jackson considers the journey of humanity, with all its foibles, as a sacred pattern of discovery reconciled by art and the imagination.

Book Synopsis The Centralia Tragedy of 1919 by : Tom Copeland
Download or read book The Centralia Tragedy of 1919 written by Tom Copeland and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 11, 1919, the citizens of Centralia, Washington, gathered to watch former servicemen, local Boy Scouts, and other community groups march in the Armstice Day parade. When the marchers swung past the meeting hall of the Industrial Workers of the World, a group of veterans broke ranks, charged the hall, and were met by gunshots. Before the day was over, four of the marchers were dead and one of the Wobblies had been lynched by the mob. Through a wealth of newly available primary source material including previously sealed court documents, FBI records released under the Freedom of Information Act, and interviews with surviving witnesses, Tom Copeland has pieced together the events of that day and has traced the fate of the men who were accused and convicted of murdering the marchers. Copeland focuses on Elmer Smith, the local attorney who advised the Wobblies that they had the right to defend their hall against an anticipated attack. Although he never belonged to the IWW, Smith sympathized with their interests, championing the rights of working people, and speaking on their behalf. He was originally arrested with the Wobbles and then took up their cause in the courts, beginning a life-long struggle to free the men who were charged with murdering the Centralia marchers. Copeland recounts Smith’s disbarment and eventual reinstatement, his run for political office, his speeches throughout the Northwest, and his unyielding support for the workers’ cause. This book is a balanced treatment of the Centalia tragedy and its legal repercussions written by a practicing lawyer. It is also a compelling human drama, centering on the marginal life of an industrial frontier labor lawyer, a study of radical politics of the 1920s, and a depiction of conditions of life in the lumber camps and towns. It is thus biography as well as legal, political, and social history.

Download or read book The Things We Do written by Kay Pfaltz and published by . This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prison psychologist Eleanor Hartley knows she has her work cut out for her when it comes to "Jane Doe." Jane was arrested and convicted of murdering two men, but she speaks not a word to anyone. Eleanor sees there is a deeply troubled soul hiding behind the silence. What would make the girl kill two men in cold blood, and then become silent? Eleanor uses her work to distract herself from a vicious betrayal and her own problems at home. And to complicate matters, every time she sits across from Jane she feels something aflutter in her chest. Before Eleanor can uncover the whole truth about Jane's arrest and conviction, author Kay Pfaltz introduces another thread in the women's connected stories: While volunteering at a local animal shelter, Sylvie Marshall hears troubling rumors. Dogs are going missing, and Sylvie fears they're being sold for drug experiments. She vows to protect the helpless animals but doesn't realize the toll her promise will take on her life. Through the intertwined stories of Eleanor, Jane, and Sylvie, Kay Pfaltz explores the lengths people will go to in order to stand up for their beliefs and the redemptive powers of love and understanding. The Things We Do is a psychological whodunit that reveals the importance not only of what people say and do, but also of what they think and feel. "The Things We Do is a story written with heart that is not afraid to look at hard truths, and ultimately offers redemption through truth." -Bernie Siegel, author Love, Medicine and Miracles "The Things We Do is a masterfully written story that kept me turning the pages. Kay Pfaltz writes about the individual to touch the universal, and to touch our hearts with compassion for those in trouble." -Judy Nelson, author Choices and Love Match

Book Synopsis The Wit of Seventeenth-century Poetry by : Claude J. Summers
Download or read book The Wit of Seventeenth-century Poetry written by Claude J. Summers and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the twelve original essays collected in this volume demonstrate, to study the wit of seventeenth-century poetry is necessarily to address concerns at the very heart of the period's shifting literary culture. It is a topic that raises persistent questions of thematics and authorial intent, even as it interrogates a wide spectrum of cultural practices. These essays by some of the most renowned scholars in seventeenth-century studies illuminate important authors and engage issues of politics and religion, of secular and sacred love, of literary theory and poetic technique, of gender relations and historical consciousness, of literary history and social change, as well as larger concerns of literary production and smaller ones of local effects. Collectively, they illustrate the vitality of the topic, both in its own right and as a means of understanding the complexity and range of seventeenth-century English poetry.
