Brilliant and indispensable.' - Stephen Fry 'Finally, a book about depression that isn't a prescriptive self-help manual. Johnston's deftly expresses how lonely and isolating depression can be for sufferers. Poignant and humorous in equal measure.' Sunday Times There are many different breeds of Black Dog affecting millions of people from all walks of life. The Black Dog is an equal opportunity mongrel.

Download or read book Dancing Dogs written by Jon Katz and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2012-09-25 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one brings to life the remarkable bond between humans and their dogs like New York Times bestselling author Jon Katz. He has warmed our spirits with enchanting tales and keen observations of his animal menagerie—the dogs, sheep, chickens, and other residents of Bedlam Farm. Now, Katz is back with what he does best in his first collection of short stories, Dancing Dogs. With his signature insight and gift for storytelling, Katz shares sixteen stories about one of life’s most unique relationships: In the title story, a housekeeper loses her job, but discovers her four-legged “children” have some toe-tapping talents that just may get the whole family back on its feet. In “Puppy Commando,” a shy grade-school outcast forges an instant connection with a beagle puppy she meets at a shelter—and risks everything to keep him. “Gracie’s Last Walk” features a woman who must find a way to say goodbye to her beloved golden retriever—but ends up saying hello to someone unexpected. “The Dog Who Kept Men Away” shows that not all humans pass the “sniff” test when it comes to canines, who possess an excellent judge of character. And in “Guardian Angel,” a widower going through a painful transition finds the greatest comfort in the unlikeliest of sources—a funny-looking pug named Gus. Whether sitting, staying, and rolling over, in the barnyard, shelters, or home, sweet, home, the creatures in Dancing Dogs are genuinely inspiring and utterly memorable. Praise for Dancing Dogs “Funny, keenly observed short stories illuminating the bond between man and his best friend.”—People “Jon Katz writes with passion and humor about the connections between animals and humans. . . . Animal lovers are sure to want to add this book to their collection.”—Examiner.com “Katz’s stories, sometimes warm and sometimes funny, are smooth, light reads that are easy to pick up and enjoy and will appeal to dog lovers everywhere.”—Booklist “Insightful, moving . . . a tissue-box-worthy collection of animal tales.”—Kirkus Reviews “[A] heartwarming book.”—The Dallas Morning News

Book Synopsis The Devil is a Black Dog by : Sandor Jaszberenyi
Download or read book The Devil is a Black Dog written by Sandor Jaszberenyi and published by New Europe Books. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteen extraordinary stories that comprise The Devil Is a Black Dog and Other Stories, writer and photojournalist Sándor Jászberényi shows us the human side of war and revolution in the contemporary Middle East and Africa, and of the social upheaval that has held Eastern Europe in its grip since the fall of communism. Characters contemplate the meaning of home, love, despair, family, and friendship against the backdrop of brutality. From Cairo to the Gaza Strip, from Benghazi to Budapest, religious men have their faith challenged, and people under the duress of war or traumatic personal memories deal with the feelings that emerge. Often they seem to suppress these feelings . . . but, no, not quite. Set in countries the author has reported from or lived in, these stories are all told from different perspectives, but always with the individual at the center: the mother, the soldier, the martyr, the religious man, the journalist, and so on. They form a kaleidoscope of miniworlds, of moments, of decisions that together put a face, an emotion, a thought behind humans who confront war and conflict. Although they are fiction, they could have all happened exactly as they are told. Each story leaves a powerful visual image, an unforgettable image you conjure up again and again. Jászberényi is able to do all this so convincingly, in part, because he himself is not a "helicopter journalist" but rather lives in a residential Cairo neighborhood. He is, moreover, from a corner of Eastern Europe where cynicism almost equates with survival, and yet his writing evinces not only wry humor but great sensitivity and a profound sense of beauty. He speaks Arabic (in addition to English and his native Hungarian) and immerses himself in the society he reports on. But, in doing so, he still remains a reporter, and as such the stories are approached with the clinical, observant eye of an outsider. Whether addressing the contradictions of international humanitarian work or the moral dilemmas faced by those who seek to improve the health and lives of women and girls, he does so in a singularly provocative and yet intelligent manner.

Book Synopsis Congolese Stories by : Bertil Söderberg
Download or read book Congolese Stories written by Bertil Söderberg and published by Firma Mats Soderberg Media. This book was released on 2018-02-26 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congo’s folk tales are rich and diverse. Legends, myths, tales and fables have been passed on from generation to generation, and in some cases a tale or a fable has been shortened into a proverb with a vast cultural significance that varies depending on the storyteller’s depiction of it. From a single source that can be summed up in just a few words, the African storyteller relates human imperfection and morality, religious representations and the surrounding nature to his listeners. Children gather in a circle around the storyteller and as he talks of lifeless objects, such as a piece of pottery, or African animals as symbolic of people, everyone listens enthusiastically. He needn’t explain what a calabash is (the dried shell of a bottle gourd from the cucurbit vine). His listeners recognise the names of large trees as well as common animals that appear in the fables. To directly translate an African storyteller’s representation is nearly impossible since it would require too much detailed interpretation. Instead, I have tried to use the same method as African storytellers use. Beginning with a basic topic, I have attempted to explain Congo’s environment to Swedish children and hopefully to older readers as well. The material used in these tales comes from two spokesmen of today’s Congo-Brazzaville. The first, Monsieur N’Zaba Philippe, comes from the Babembe tribe. He has been the dedicated district leader for the mission area of Dolisie for many years. The second is Monsieur Pomo from the woodland inhabitants of Bambamba, a tribe attached to the Bakuta people. Some of the tales have been obtained from Congolese literature. Gothenburg 1964, Bertil Söderberg For Jan-Olov, Kerstin, Per and Mats
