Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Pulitzer Prize finalist Ben Montgomery, the story of a Texas man who, during the Great Depression, walked around the world -- backwards. Like most Americans at the time, Plennie Wingo was hit hard by the effects of the Great Depression. When the bank foreclosed on his small restaurant in Abilene, he found himself suddenly penniless with nowhere left to turn. After months of struggling to feed his family on wages he earned digging ditches in the Texas sun, Plennie decided it was time to do something extraordinary -- something to resurrect the spirit of adventure and optimism he felt he'd lost. He decided to walk around the world -- backwards. In The Man Who Walked Backward, Pulitzer Prize finalist Ben Montgomery charts Plennie's backwards trek across the America that gave rise to Woody Guthrie, John Steinbeck, and the New Deal. With the Dust Bowl and Great Depression as a backdrop, Montgomery follows Plennie across the Atlantic through Germany, Turkey, and beyond, and details the daring physical feats, grueling hardships, comical misadventures, and hostile foreign police he encountered along the way. A remarkable and quirky slice of Americana, The Man Who Walked Backward paints a rich and vibrant portrait of a jaw-dropping period of history.

Book excerpt: An important celebratory collection of Irish poetry by graduates of University College, Cork writing in both English and Irish, which groups together poets of international standing in a single volume, Paul Durcan, Eileain Ni Chuilleanain and Michael Davitt. Irish language poetry, long considered the death wail of a dying beast, experienced a remarkable resurgence in the late 60s and early 70s. This emanated mainly from the poetry magazine INNTI, first issued as a broadsheet by UCC students and later going on tyo become one of the most prestigious poetry publications in these isles. Most of the poets associated with INNTI are alumnae of UCC and beteeen them they have already produced a remarkable body of work. The presence in UCC of Sean O Riordain, the poet, and Sean O Tuma, poet, scholar, teacher, dramatist and critic was of major importance in the development of Irish language poetry. In the English Department Sean Lucy and John Montague were a major source of inspiration for poets writing in the English language. Through the influence of these teachers many of Ireland's most distinguished poets have been through the portals of UCC. The contributors to the collection include Paul Durcan, Patrick Cotter, Michael Davitt, Roz Cowman, Theo Dorgan, Sean Dunne, Eileain Ni Chuilleanain and Colm Breathnach. The editors will provide a main introduction, introductions to each poet, and translations of the Irish poetry.

Download or read book Fat Boy written by Joseph Cobb and published by Joseph Cobb. This book was released on 2019-04-22 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Way out west, in the tumbling greens of England, something’s going down. Two boys attempt an escape from the clutches of their poisonous parents… A good policeman fights to sidestep the corruption that blows like hellfire down his neck… A calamitous filmmaker and her witless lead actor scramble desperately to overcome their mucky pasts and make a Hollywood hit… A trio of nude-nutted nasties thrash their way through the picturesque countryside, collecting debts but finding more than they expected… Then there’s Captain Grubbe: the eminent, manipulative and falsely titled antichrist. He hosts a spectacular annual Christmas party, and this year’s is set to be even more extraordinary than usual. Fat Boy is a treacherously fictitious rhapsody, taking a tongue-in-cheek look at the best and the worst of humanity and treating it with the disrespect it deserves - love and hate, corruption and extortion, car chases, gunfights and high jinks, all set against the green and pleasant landscapes of the English countryside. It is ludicrous. It is raucous. It is a modern classic. "Fat Boy really was something else; refreshing, different and quintessentially British. I will certainly be following this author with some interest in the future." - Grant Leishman, Readers’ Favorite "The best thing about this book is the descriptions the author employs to create character and scene. It is so scrumptious that I found myself lost in its delicacy and sad when it had gone. There are moments in the descriptive writing that really showcase the talent this author has and touch all the senses." - Nicole Howard, Writer's Digest
