Book excerpt: William Standish is a distinguished retired journalist and political commentator, who has become a pillar of the establishment. When he dies of a heart attack in a Devon lane, none of his family knows why he was there. They descend on the nearest town to discover what happened. His daughter Marianne is consumed by religion and concerned that her father has a proper burial. Her brother Curtis is a photographer and uses the visit as an opportunity for a photo shoot. He takes a more jaundiced view of his father. Curtis's grandmother Mrs Somerset-Cunliffe insists that the body is not that of her son, but because she is losing touch with reality, nobody takes much notice. She is determined to investigate and enlists a reluctant Marianne to help. Even Curtis becomes curious when two strangers seem intent on befriending the family. It is left to Willie's widow Celia to keep her disparate family together, though this proves increasingly difficult.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Daddy Really Dead? By: E.L. Hutton Is Daddy Really Dead? She’s lost him, her love, her husband, Robert. He left with friends on a weekend trip to solve a childhood mystery; then there was a car accident, and Robert is gone. They say he’s dead, but she doesn’t really believe that, doesn’t feel it. Is Daddy Really Dead? follows the haunting story of a family seeking answers as they face off against rich and powerful adversaries intent on maintaining the mystery and covering their tracks. There are no real clues as to what happened to him, simply a wrecked car, no body that his wife or family can see, no police or hospital records, even his parents don’t seem as devastated as one would expect. All research comes to a dead end. But never give up. Listen to your heart, and perhaps life will turn around suddenly. This is when we discover that we have the strength to go on. It is when we feel that life has taken our dreams, and all control out of our life, that something deep inside of us compels us to keep moving forward. This is God’s gift to many who have experienced sudden and drastic changes in their life that they never planned on.

Rob Kenney’s father left him and his seven siblings when he was fourteen years old, and the youngest had to fend for themselves. He wished that he had someone who could teach him the basics—how to tie a tie, jump-start a car, unclog a drain, use tools properly—as well as succeed in life. But he and his siblings had to figure these things out on their own. Now a father himself, Rob decided that he would help people out by providing how-to tips as well as advice—and even throw in some bad dad jokes. He started a YouTube channel for anyone looking for fatherly advice, and in the course of three months, gained a following of nearly 2.5 million subscribers, with millions of views for his how-to and inspirational videos. In this book, Rob shares his story of overcoming a difficult childhood with the strength of faith and family, and offers inspiration and hope. In addition, he provides 50 practical DYI instructions (30 of which will be unique to the book), illustrated with helpful line drawings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 2008, the world watched in horror as the news of Josef Fritzl made worldwide headlines. But for one British woman the story was not the stuff of unimaginable nightmares. Alice Lawrence knew all too well the torture suffered at the hands of a father whose depravity knew no bounds. She too was kept prisoner and repeatedly made pregnant - and it was only after the death of one of her babies that she finally found the courage to escape. Born in 1970, Alice grew up in the impoverished backstreets of an industrial Northern town with her parents and seven brothers and sisters. She was first raped by her father when she was 11. From the age of 15, she was made pregnant six times by him in an effort to secure additional state benefits. All bar one of her pregnancies failed, but her daughter never made it through her first year. The death of her baby was the spur to Alice bringing her father and abuser to justice. Finally, Alice can tell her deeply moving story of recovery from abuse.

Download or read book Who Killed My Father written by Edouard Louis and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bracing new nonfiction book by the young superstar E´douard Louis is both a searing j’accuse of the viciously entrenched French class system and a wrenchingly tender love letter to his father This bracing new nonfiction book by the young superstar Édouard Louis is both a searing j’accuse of the viciously entrenched French class system and a wrenchingly tender love letter to his father. Who Killed My Father rips into France’s long neglect of the working class and its overt contempt for the poor, accusing the complacent French—at the minimum—of negligent homicide. The author goes to visit the ugly gray town of his childhood to see his dying father, barely fifty years old, who can hardly walk or breathe:“You belong to the category of humans whom politics consigns to an early death.” It’s as simple as that. But hand in hand with searing, specific denunciations are tender passages of a love between father and son, once damaged by shame, poverty and homophobia. Yet tenderness reconciles them, even as the state is killing off his father. Louis goes after the French system with bare knuckles but turns to his long-alienated father with open arms: this passionate combination makes Who Killed My Father a heartbreaking book.
