Book excerpt: From the author of the New York Times bestselling novel Fish in a Tree! Carley uses humor and street smarts to keep her emotional walls high and thick. But the day she becomes a foster child, and moves in with the Murphys, she's blindsided. This loving, bustling family shows Carley the stable family life she never thought existed, and she feels like an alien in their cookie-cutter-perfect household. Despite her resistance, the Murphys eventually show her what it feels like to belong--until her mother wants her back and Carley has to decide where and how to live. She's not really a Murphy, but the gifts they've given her have opened up a new future. "Hunt's writing is fearless and One For The Murphys is a story that is at once compassionate, thought-provoking and beautifully told. From the first page, I was drawn into Carley's story. She is a character not to be missed or forgotten." —Jacqueline Woodson, National Book Award-winning author of Brown Girl Dreaming Winner of the Tassy Walden Award for New Voice in Children's Literature

Download or read book Merry Wives and Others written by Penelope Fritzer and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2010-06-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many ways, the history of domestic humor writing is also a history of domestic life in the twentieth century. For many years, domestic humor was written primarily by females; significant contributions from male writers began as times and family structures changed. It remains timeless because of its basis on the relationships between husbands and wives, parents and children, houses and inhabitants, pets and their owners, chores and their doers, and neighbors. This work is a historical and literary survey of humorists who wrote about home. It begins with a chapter on the social context of and attitudes toward traditional domestic roles and housewives. The following chapters, beginning with the 1920s and continuing through today, cover the different time periods and the foremost American domestic humorists, and the humor written by surrogate parents, grown children about their childhood families, husbands, and Canadian and English writers. Also covered are the differences among various writers toward traditional domestic roles--some, like Erma Bombeck and Judith Viorst, embraced them, while others, like Caryl Kristenson and Marilyn Kentz, resisted them. Common themes, such as the isolation and competitiveness of housework, home as an idealized metaphysical goal and ongoing physical challenge, and the urban, suburban, and rural life, are also explored.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two sisters face love, rivalry, and a shocking disappearance amidst the luxury of Palm Springs from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Flowers in the Attic series and Landry series—now popular Lifetime movie events. Like everyone else in Palm Springs, Gish idolizes her smart, beautiful, kind older sister. Even their parents compare Gish unfavorably to Gloria—threatening to send her to boarding school once the more perfect sister leaves for college. But Gloria has an unwavering love for Gish, even if that connection belies a weariness with her own accomplishments. Wanting a better life for her overlooked sibling, Gloria teaches Gish how to talk to boys, embrace her femininity, and finally develop a life of her own. And just as life is looking up for Gish, Gloria meets a handsome, mysterious boy. Obsessed with the stranger, Gloria closes off her life to her sister—then disappears without a trace. A police search yields nothing. Their father’s manic investigation proves fruitless. And their already starstruck mother becomes increasingly lost in daydreams of the celebrities who threw glamorous parties in their historic house decades ago when the town was a Hollywood getaway. Untethered from the weight of her sister’s presence—but also missing her sister’s love—what will Gish do with this new terrible freedom, with this sense she could become anything?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brief Interview With Mother Murphy, Himself Q. How did you come up with the idea for Mother Murphy's Law? Mother Murphy: I spend a lot of time with my children, and it seems that something is always going wrong. I used to think I was a klutzy daddy...then it dawned on me: 1. When I was a kid, everything my parents did was wrong. 2. Now that I'm a parent, everything I do is wrong. Q. What does Mother Murphy's Law explain? Mother Murphy: The book is pretty much a catalog of things that can go wrong as you have and raise kids. For example: If most of the baby shower gifts you receive are blue, your baby will be a girl. Your baby's diaper is wet moments after you've changed her into a clean one...and leakproof diapers aren't. your toddler knocks on your bedroom door the moment you're about to have sex...or barges in unannounced at the peak of passion. Any food that's good for your child is "yukky"...and any food that's loaded with sugar, salt and fat is "yummy." Anything you say or do when you're with your teenager in public will embarrass him.

Book excerpt: Egad! Twenty Short Stories, every one of them involving folks getting it on. What's not to like? Novelist JD Rule lets his authorial pants down in this retrospective collection of his earliest explorations into the panoply of human emotions. Each story dives into a different aspect of who we are as individual players on a stage normally set for two, with a set of characters who wander in and out of the various tales, sometimes meeting at the mythical Murphy's Bar and Grille, and sometimes not. The only thing they have in common is that none of them know what to do next, and each is driven by the primary urge that defines the human condition.

Download or read book Corrigan written by Caroline Blackwood and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2012-04-18 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corrigan is at once a mordant comedy of manners and a very modern morality play. Since her husband’s death, the increasingly frail Mrs. Blunt has had only her trips to his grave to look forward to. Her raucous housekeeper’s conversation, and cooking, are best forgotten. Nadine, her daughter, is an infrequent, uneasy visitor. Then one day a charming, wheelchair-bound Irishman shows up at Mrs. Blunt’s door in search of charitable contributions. Corrigan is an arch manipulator, Mrs. Blunt is his mark, and before long we realize that they are made for each other. As the two grow ever more entrenched, Nadine fears for her mother’s safety (or is it for her own inheritance?). With Corrigan Caroline Blackwood takes a long, hard look at our dearly beloved notions of saints and sinners, victims and villains, patrimony and present pleasure, and winks.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of American Humorists written by Steven H. Gale and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1988, this book contains entries on famous American Humorists. Humor has been present in American literature, from the beginning, and has developed characteristics that reflect the American character, both regional and national. Although American literature was, in the past, treated as inferior to British literature, there has always been a large popular audience for the genre, which this book shows. The figures with entries in this encyclopedia not only amuse in their writing, but also aim to enlighten- setting out to expose the foibles and foolishness of society and the individuals who compose it. It is the manner in which these authors try to accomplish this end that determines whether they appear in the volume. Indeed, the book will demonstrate that the best humor has at its base, a ready understanding of human nature.

Book excerpt: It was a distant cousin's personal manuscript that led Janice to write The Murphy's. Always wondering about her Irish ancestors on her mother's side, Janice spent the past three years trying to find them and bring them 'back to life' for other family members to meet, get to know and maybe lead to a better understanding of each other as well. With most of her ancestors gone, she focused her search on town records, newspaper articles, fragments of notes and pictures left behind by family members. Now that the Irish have been brought back to 'life' through words and pictures, she believes the Murphy's are, hopefully, resting in peace.

Thrall and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2000-11-21 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether the Second Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians is a single document or a compilation of two or more, and the question of Paul's relations with the Corinthian church between the despatch of the First and the composition of the Second letter (or letters), have been matters of debate since the eighteenth century.Margaret Thrall's commentary engages with these and all the other issues associated with 2 Corinthians. There follows a detailed verse-by-verse exegesis of chapters 1-7, which attempts to understand the viewpoint of the original readers of the text as well as Paul's own.This volume covers many of Paul's writings which have evoked considerable scholarly interest in recent years. This is an exemplary addition to the ICC series.
