His life has been one of thought-provoking questions, highly charged emotional situations, and brushes with both greatness and tragedy. He's been an airman, an officer, an instructor, a commander, an administrator, a trainer, a consular officer, a manager, and a diplomat. He's sold paintings on a street corner, washed dishes, worked in a paper mill, flipped hamburgers, painted houses, and tended bar. He smoked pot, drank too much, and fell in (and out) of love (including four marriages). He went AWOL, was shot at three times, survived a brain aneurysm, and beat colon cancer. His mantra- "The more you know, the more you don't know sh*t" or TMYKTMYDKS-reminds us all that the human mind will never let you understand the human mind.
Book Synopsis The Reluctant Traveler by : Paul Katzaroff
Download or read book The Reluctant Traveler written by Paul Katzaroff and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a must-read for World War II buffs! The narrative was written from the perspective of an Eastern European youngster growing up on the losing side of the conflict during the war years. This is a saga that spans Paris in the 1930s to Sofia, Bulgarias capital, in May 1940, just prior to the victorious Nazi armies that paraded in Paris on June 14, 1940. At the time of their arrival in Sofia, Bulgaria remained neutral. On March 1, 1941, Bulgaria joined the Axis and later on declared war on the USA and Great Britain. That action invited the systematic bombing of Sofia, resulting in the family having to relocate to a safer location. The chosen location was in what used to be Northern Greece, a city called Serres, where the family lived until the fall of 1944 when the German armies were forced to retreat, which meant that the family had to move back to Sofia. At the end of the war, the family decided to leave Bulgaria as soon as possible. In spite of many obstacles, the family was able to reunite in Prague and, from there, spent some time in a couple of displaced persons (DP) camps in Rome and Naples. Eventually, they sailed from Naples to Buenos Aires and five years later, flew to New York City, the final desired destination.

Book Synopsis The Reluctant Psychic by : Suzan Saxman
Download or read book The Reluctant Psychic written by Suzan Saxman and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all, as children, saw imaginary friends and heard monsters in the closet. But for Suzan Saxman, those friends and monsters didn't go away—and they weren't imaginary. They were the dead who came to her from the time she was a little girl with urgent messages for the living. Raised in a house filled with secrets, she saw and spoke the truth as soon as she could talk, alarming the nuns in her convent school with her revelations and terrifying her own mother with her strange visions. Each night she woke to see a man with no eyes watching her, and each day she kept watch by the window while her father was at work and Steve, her real father, a swarthy drifter, rendezvoused with her mother. It was the 1960s in suburban Staten Island and she tried to hide it all, and be a daughter her mother could love. Always skeptical of her tremendous gift, she struggled to come to terms with her calling even as she revealed the destinies of everyone, from housewives to hit men, stockbrokers to rock-and-rollers. She could witness everyone's future—everyone's but her own. Why was she visited by angels and demons? Could she ever escape this strange fate? Where was her own soul mate? Now Suzan tells the story of her journey and tries to make sense of her family's buried secrets. Through powerful readings of others' destinies interwoven with compelling narrative, a reluctant psychic emerges from the shadows.
Download or read book Welcome to Here written by Nancy Solak and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some, traveling is a dream come true. For others it's a nightmare. Either way, traveling has a way of testing one's mettle. Where each of us falls on the scale of "ability to cope" varies. Nancy coped while in China, but not always with spirit and resilience. She's more of a reluctant traveler, an accidental tourist. In this memoir, she visited China three times, not because it was a lifelong dream of hers, but because of her son. She spent two weeks in China when he was a student, then one week when he was the groom and, finally, five weeks when he was the Chinese language high school teacher taking American students to China in a foreign exchange program. Each trip brought many and varied challenges. During the first one, Nancy learned to set aside her instinct to use chopsticks as a fork and knife. During the second, she was unexpectedly called upon to speak publicly and, startled, stuttered and sputtered her way through a congratulatory speech. And during the third, each time nature called, she was reminded that something had drastically changed since her first trip 14 years earlier-her leg muscles, which used to easily raise her up from a squat, betrayed her. Now, thanks to Nancy's second photo-studded travel memoir, Welcome to Here: A Reluctant Traveler Goes to China, you can experience the country in all its glory and challenges without leaving your favorite reading place.
Book Synopsis A Reluctant Memoir by : Robert Ballagh
Download or read book A Reluctant Memoir written by Robert Ballagh and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fiercely honest and unvarnished autobiography from Ireland's most successful and controversial living artist. Making his name as a Pop artist in the late 1960s and 70s, Robert Ballagh quickly achieved an international reputation. With little formal artistic training, he triumphed in his field despite often formidable hostility. His work was also strikingly topical and political, playing with classic images by Goya or Delacroix to express outrage about the situation in Northern Ireland. But it is his series of realistic portraits of writers, politicians and fellow artists – often searingly inquisitive and moving in equal measure – that have won him lasting fame. His subjects include Brian Friel, Seamus Heaney, Samuel Beckett, James Watson, Francis Crick, Harold Pinter and Fidel Castro. And his remarkable self-portraits unsparingly document the process of his own ageing. This memoir is also a story of Ireland over the past sixty years, its violence, hypocrisy and immobility as well as its creativity and generosity.

Book excerpt: As a follow-up to his best-selling book, “Going Home - A Backpacker’s Journey,” Thomas Ashley Young continues his travels this time from everyday experiences that border on the insane. Ripe with peripheral invisibleness, Tom’s journeys could be your own; that is, if you jump ouside the box that others have crystallized for you. His expanded use of outside-the-writing-rules techniques have earned him raised eyebrows from even his closest friends.

Book Synopsis The English Language Poetry of South Asians by : Mitali Pati Wong
Download or read book The English Language Poetry of South Asians written by Mitali Pati Wong and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-01-24 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, ten independent critical essays and a coda explore the English-language poetry of South Asians in terms of time, place, themes and poetic methodologies. The transnational perspective taken establishes connections between colonial and postcolonial South Asian poetry in English as well as the poetry of the old and new diaspora and the Subcontinent. The poetry analysis covers the relevance of historical allusions as well as underlying concerns of gender, ethnicity and class. Comparisons are offered between poets of different places and time periods, yielding numerous sociopolitical paradigms that surface in the poetry.
