This book was released on 2014-01-28 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A witty and lively novel set somewhere between the worlds of Roddy Doyle and Irvine Welsh.” —William Dalyrymple, The Guardian Reminiscent of early Roddy Doyle, Tony Hogan Bought Me an Ice-Cream Float Before He Stole My Ma begins with our singular heroine’s less than idyllic birth and quickly moves to a spectacular fight that lands Janie and her mother in a local women’s shelter. From there it’s on to a dodgy council flat and a succession of unsuitable men, including the hard-drinking, drug-dealing, ice-cream-buying Tony Hogan. Kerry Hudson’s arrestingly original debut will enthrall readers with Janie’s tragicomic and moving story about coming of age in a non-traditional family amid the absurdities of the 1980s and Thatcherite Britain.

Download or read book Mice in the Freezer Owls on the Porch written by Helen McGavran Corneli and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2002-12-01 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mice in the Freezer, Owls on the Porch is in many ways a love story—about a quiet scientist and his flamboyant wife, but also about their passions for hunting, for wild lands, and for the grouse and raptor species that they were instrumental in saving from destruction. From the papers and letters of Frederick and Frances Hamerstrom, the reminiscences of contemporaries, and her own long friendship with this extraordinary couple who were her neighbors, Helen Corneli draws an intimate picture of Fran and "Hammy" from childhood through the genesis and maturation of a romantic, creative, and scientific relationship. Following the Hamerstroms as they give up a life of sophisticated convention and comfort for the more "civilized" (as Aldo Leopold would have it) pleasures of living and conducting on-the-spot research into diminishing species, Corneli captures the spirit of the Hamerstroms, their profession, and the natural and human environments in which they worked. A nuanced account of the labors, adventures, and achievements that distinguished the Hamerstroms over the years—and that inspired a generation of naturalists—this book also provides a dramatic account of conservation history over the course of the twentieth century, particularly in Wisconsin during the eventful years from the 1920s through the 1970s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By all appearances, Anko is no more than a sixteen-year-old kid; but looks can be deceiving. Created by the ancient gods, he has lived since the beginning of time; and his true desire is to join them as an equal. In order to do so, however, he must complete a specific set of tasks; so Anko sets out in his quest to climb nine hundred and ninety-nine steps. Each level represents a new challenge and exposes him to unseen dangers placed before him by the jealous god Osiris. Sack Fitzpatrick has lived a sad and isolated existence since the death of his wife and daughters. The last things on his mind are gods and supernatural beings; but a devastating earthquake changes all that when it swallows his house and forces a meeting with Anko. When Anko receives his first task—return to the world of man and rescue three children from the Caucas, despicable spirits created by Osiris but expelled from the underworld by Horus more than a millennium ago—the quest begins. Together, they enter a battle where failure of any sort will have a devastating impact on all mankind. The Brotherhood of Valcourange is book one in Solrac's nine hundred and ninety-nine steps trilogy and will take readers on a mysterious and fantastic journey from the depths of the underworld to the heights of heaven and everywhere else you can imagine.
