Book excerpt: Part personal history, part biography, Dotter of Her Father's Eyes contrasts two comingofage narratives: that of Lucia, the daughter of James Joyce, and that of author Mary Talbot, daughter of the eminent Joycean scholar James S. Atherton. Social expectations and gender politics, thwarted ambitions and personal tragedy are played out against two contrasting historical backgrounds, poignantly evoked by the atmospheric visual storytelling of awardwinning graphicnovel pioneer Bryan Talbot. Produced through an intense collaboration seldom seen between writers and artists, Dotter of Her Father's Eyes is smart, funny, and sadan essential addition to the evolving genre of graphic memoir. * Bryan Talbot is recognized worldwide as one of the true original voices in graphic fiction. * Bryan Talbot's Grandville Mon Amour was nominated for a 2011 Hugo Award.
Book Synopsis Through My Father's Eyes by : Franklin Graham
Download or read book Through My Father's Eyes written by Franklin Graham and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: USA Today Bestseller List. Many have written about Billy Graham, the evangelist. This is the first book about Billy Graham, the father, written from the perspective of a son who knew him best. As a beloved evangelist and a respected man of God, Billy Graham’s stated purpose in life never wavered: to help people find a personal relationship with God through a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. This was a calling that only increased over time, and Billy embraced it fully throughout his active ministry and beyond. Yet Billy pursued his life’s work, as many men do, amid a similarly significant calling to be a loving husband and father. While most people knew Billy Graham as America’s pastor, Franklin Graham knew him in a different way, as a dad. And while present and future generations will come to their own conclusions about Billy Graham and the legacy that his commitment to Christ has left behind, no one can speak more insightfully or authoritatively on that subject than a son who grew up in the shadow of his father’s life and the examples of his father’s love. This vulnerable book is a look at both Billy Graham the evangelist and Billy Graham the father, and the impact he had on a son who walked in his father’s steps while also becoming his own man, leading ministries around the world, all of it based on the foundational lessons his father taught him. “My father left behind a testimony to God,” says Franklin, “a legacy not buried in a grave but still pointing people to a heaven-bound destiny. The Lord will say to my father, and to all who served Him obediently, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant’ [Matthew 25:21].”

Book Synopsis My Heavenly Father's Eyes by : Lori J. Moss
Download or read book My Heavenly Father's Eyes written by Lori J. Moss and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspiration for this book came from my mother's comments about my children's eyes. She often remarks, "your children have eyes just like Donald" (their Father). Stephanie, my oldest daughter, has lashes that are very long and silky, complementing her beautiful brown skin. Melanie, my middle child, has dark smooth brows that perfectly accent her stunning dark eyes. DJ, my handsome son has gorgeous eyes that seem as if they don't even belong on such a robust young man. While my children do have various traits of mine, it amazes me how they all have their father's eyes. As I pondered on this comment early one Thursday morning, this natural reality became a spiritual truth. I thought about the importance of having your father's eyes-your Heavenly Father's eyes. It is important to be able to look at people and situations and see them the way God sees them. We do not see them with our natural eyes but with hearts indwelled with the loving Spirit of Jesus Christ. Seeing them the way our Heavenly Father sees them is the only way to establish and to maintain loving relationships. Husbands with their Heavenly Father's eyes see their wives as a precious jewel; wives see their husbands as the spiritual leaders in the home. Parents see their children as special gifts from God. Children see their parents as people of honor. Family members see each other as spiritual support systems. Pastors see their members as precious souls. Congregations see their Pastors as leaders appointed by God. This study is designed to build relational bonds that are so strong in marriages, in our families and in our church families that Satan does not stand a chance at destroying them.
Download or read book My Father's Tears written by John Updike and published by Random House. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sensational collection of stories of the American experience from the Depression to the aftermath of 9/11, by one of the most gifted American writers of the twentieth century and the author of the acclaimed Rabbit series. John Updike mingles narratives of Pennsylvania with stories of New England suburbia and of foreign travel: “Personal Archaeology” considers life as a sequence of half-buried layers, and “The Full Glass” distills a lifetime’s happiness into one brimming moment of an old man’s bedtime routine. High-school class reunions, in “The Walk with Elizanne” and “The Road Home,” restore their hero to youth’s commonwealth where, as the narrator of the title story confides, “the self I value is stored, however infrequently I check on its condition.” Exotic locales encountered in the journeys of adulthood include Morocco, Florida, Spain, Italy, and India. The territory of childhood, with its fundamental, formative mysteries, is explored in “The Guardians,” “The Laughter of the Gods,” and “Kinderszenen.” Love’s fumblings among the bourgeoisie yield the tart comedy of “Free,” “Delicate Wives,” “The Apparition,” and “Outage.”
Book Synopsis Dreams from My Father by : Barack Obama
Download or read book Dreams from My Father written by Barack Obama and published by Crown. This book was released on 2007-01-09 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • ONE OF ESSENCE’S 50 MOST IMPACTFUL BLACK BOOKS OF THE PAST 50 YEARS In this iconic memoir of his early days, Barack Obama “guides us straight to the intersection of the most serious questions of identity, class, and race” (The Washington Post Book World). “Quite extraordinary.”—Toni Morrison In this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a black African father and a white American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father—a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man—has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey—first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family, confronts the bitter truth of his father’s life, and at last reconciles his divided inheritance. Praise for Dreams from My Father “Beautifully crafted . . . moving and candid . . . This book belongs on the shelf beside works like James McBride’s The Color of Water and Gregory Howard Williams’s Life on the Color Line as a tale of living astride America’s racial categories.”—Scott Turow “Provocative . . . Persuasively describes the phenomenon of belonging to two different worlds, and thus belonging to neither.”—The New York Times Book Review “Obama’s writing is incisive yet forgiving. This is a book worth savoring.”—Alex Kotlowitz, author of There Are No Children Here “One of the most powerful books of self-discovery I’ve ever read, all the more so for its illuminating insights into the problems not only of race, class, and color, but of culture and ethnicity. It is also beautifully written, skillfully layered, and paced like a good novel.”—Charlayne Hunter-Gault, author of In My Place “Dreams from My Father is an exquisite, sensitive study of this wonderful young author’s journey into adulthood, his search for community and his place in it, his quest for an understanding of his roots, and his discovery of the poetry of human life. Perceptive and wise, this book will tell you something about yourself whether you are black or white.”—Marian Wright Edelman

Book Synopsis Tears in My Heart by : James Collins
Download or read book Tears in My Heart written by James Collins and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-03 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a number of years I have collected stories. My criteria for saving a story was always what I thought of as "Tears In My Heart," and I must admit most of those resulted in tears on my cheeks. This is a selection of some of those stories. Ones I would like to share with others. Some stories are true and others are illustrations, but, all have been used by God to touch my heart when I needed Him most. Always to remind me of His "Great Love" and to remind me to thank Him and praise Him for the blessings of the family and friends that He has sent me to encourage me and give me hope and faith in Him and "HOPE" in the future. It is my prayer that perhaps through these stories the Spirit of God will put "Tears in Your Heart" also and remind you of God's great LOVE for you and your "HOPE" for the future.
Download or read book The Bluest Eye written by Toni Morrison and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the acclaimed Nobel Prize winner—a powerful examination of our obsession with beauty and conformity that asks questions about race, class, and gender with characteristic subtly and grace. In Morrison’s acclaimed first novel, Pecola Breedlove—an 11-year-old Black girl in an America whose love for its blond, blue-eyed children can devastate all others—prays for her eyes to turn blue: so that she will be beautiful, so that people will look at her, so that her world will be different. This is the story of the nightmare at the heart of her yearning, and the tragedy of its fulfillment. Here, Morrison’s writing is “so precise, so faithful to speech and so charged with pain and wonder that the novel becomes poetry” (The New York Times).

Book excerpt: From the author of the incredible debut novel, Be Near Me. Finalist for the Man Booker Prize, the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award, and the Whitbread Award. Hugh Bawn was a modern hero, a visionary urban planner, a man of the people who revolutionized Scotland’s residential development after the Second World War. But times have changed. Now, as he lies dying in one of his own failed buildings, his grandson Jamie comes home to watch over him. The old man’s final months bring Jamie to see what is best and worst in the past that haunts them all, and he sees the fears of his own life unravel in the land that bred him. It is Jamie who tells the story of his family, of three generations of pride and delusion, of nationality and strong drink, of Catholic faith and the end of political idealism. It is a tale of dark hearts and modern houses, of three men in search of Utopia. A poignant and powerful reclamation of the past, Our Fathers is a deeply felt, beautifully crafted, utterly unforgettable novel.

Download or read book The Founding Fathers at Odds: The Quasi-War - Volume I of the Founding of the U.S. Navy Trilogy written by William D. McEachern and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-03-10 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first in a trilogy of books about the founding of the U.S. Navy, The Founding Fathers at Odds: The Quasi-War, is told in the form of a memoir from the vantage point of young South Carolinian of Scottish descent from the Waxhaws who goes to sea and is later impressed into the British Navy. This first work, spans the tumultuous era of the Quasi-War with France, the writing of the United States’ Constitution, and the birth, in the United States, of partisan politics, which becomes increasingly bitter and divisive. The second volume, entitled Dueling Brothers, Dueling Countries, and The Lure of Empire: The Barbary Pirates, recounts the War with the Barbary Pirates, the rise of Aaron Burr, the Louisiana Purchase, and the Presidency of Thomas Jefferson, while the third volume, entitled, Free Trade and Sailors’ Right: The War of 1812, covers the Second War of Independence (the War of 1812). The second volume should be out later this year of 2023, with the final volume to follow in 2024. The oldest of large family, James goes to sea sailing on a merchantman, while his brothers and sisters have roles to play as shipwrights under Joshua Humphreys, building the frigates that will serve the nation so well, such as the Constellation and the Constitution, or in serving in the militia under Andrew Jackson, or running the family's farm and other businesses. The setting in the Waxhaws, the site of an infamous massacre during the Revolution, and the clan's father and grandfather, having fought at both King's Mountain and at Cowpens under Daniel Morgan, grounds the novel in the era following the American Revolution. The spirit of partisan politics even divides James’ family, with his brother John becoming a correspondent of Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, and James Madison, while the patriarch of the family is longtime friend and admirer of Alexander Hamilton. When James is impressed by the British Navy, he finds himself under the cruel tutelage of Lieutenant Campbell and the equally sinister Sailing Master William Samuelson. Floggings and other punishments, such as mastheading during a vicious storm, are only some of the measures Campbell and Samuelson take in order to torment and hopefully kill young James. While James fights against the French in the British Navy, Captain John Truxtun defeats two French frigates in one-on-one ship battles during the Quasi-War. At home, his younger brother, John, who has always despised James, not only courts the intended of James, the prominent and wealthy Patience Pendleton, but also tries to displace James as the eldest son in their father’s eyes and their father’s businesses. John, over the wishes of his father and the objections of the rest of the family invests in slaves to work their landholdings. This is the era where the relationship between the United States and France deteriorates, with the diplomats of France demanding huge bribes, merely to start diplomatic talks in the infamous X, Y, Z Affair. John Adams becomes aware that his Vice President and best friend, Thomas Jefferson, has been intriguing with France, counter to the policy of President Adams to court Great Britain and its secure some of its vast world trade network. While Great Britain fights Napoleon, among other naval adventures, our young sailor, James, fights the French fleet at Aboukir Bay in Egypt under Admiral Lord Nelson, learning the British naval tactics, discipline, and signals, which he later brings to the U.S. Navy during the War of 1812. If James can survive his servitude in the British Navy and come home, what will he find? His love stolen? His inheritance stolen?
