Book True Adventures of the Floating Poet

Download or read book True Adventures of the Floating Poet written by Mike Harris and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-03-09 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Free Spirited with Salty Lyric Waves Poet Mike Harris pens his disillusions on his own terms and comes up with truth, philosophy, epiphany and catharsis-in-jest Beaufort, South Carolina. – (Release Date TBD) – For a surety (shoe-rate-ey), True Adventures of the Floating Poet, Mike Harris’ collection of verse, is not The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. But it is as salt- and barnacle-encrusted as that distant predecessor. Born out of a need to get away from Wall Street-induced (and ultimately fake) problems, self-styled Capt. Mike left for the Caribbean on a normal day in New York. All poets who have followed the seabreeze to a life of adventure on the waves share the author’s respect for the sensible in the face of chance and nature. From the first poem “The Holy Clam and the birth of Clamism,” the author divests himself of the trappings of the “civilized” jungles of boardroom and yuppie restaurants, distances himself from them because they induce spiritual phobia, and rides out on the crests of a versified ocean like Neptune riding sea-horses. Not unlike Hunter S. Thompson’s (author of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas) famous sojourn into pre-Castro Cuba, this Mike Harris’ “vacation” has produced an awesome, seismic new reading of the largely unspotlighted areas of the American dream that few except the disillusioned intellectuals get to comment on. Both Thompson and Harris, like Coleridge, do not get to drink much water. In both the modern writers’ cases, whiskey (or perhaps rum, in Harris’ case) is the philosophical lubrication of choice. The difference is that Harris holds out some hope for the reader whom this volume will surely hook – it makes Harris an excellent, not quite indifferent, grungy, but compassionate fisher of men. He who floats has surely lived to tell a deeply funny, ultimately meaningful, compelling tale...

Book The Floating Opera and The End of the Road

Download or read book The Floating Opera and The End of the Road written by John Barth and published by Anchor. This book was released on 1997-03-11 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Floating Opera and The End Of The Road are John Barth's first two novels. Their relationship to each other is evident not only in their ribald subject matter but in the eccentric characters and bitterly humorous tone of the narratives. Both concern strange, consuming love triangles and the destructive effect of an overactive intellect on the emotions. Separately they give two very different views of a universal human drama. Together they illustrate the beginnings of an illustrious career.

Book Monetary Policy and Macroeconomic Stabilization in Latin America

Download or read book Monetary Policy and Macroeconomic Stabilization in Latin America written by Rolf J. Langhammer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-07 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America is a very important region of the globe, which has been buffeted by successive waves of economic instability within the last decades. These waves have caused several episodes of hyperinflation or near hyperinflation, and several currency and financial crises, which, in certain moments, have even spilled over and affected other emerging markets. This has resulted in huge costs in terms of lost potential growth, and, as is inevitable, the markets most affected by this have been the least capable of defending themselves. In a region plagued by still considerable rates of social exclusion, with some of the highest rates of income concentration in the whole globe, the human costs of these crises have been very substantial. Starting in the early 1990s, the slow implementation of reforms, plus the resumption of more sustained growth—to a substantial degree linked to the increase in commodity prices, especially since the early 2000s—seems to have resulted in a more stable situation. Initially, in early reformers like Chile, later in the larger economies of the region, like Brazil and Mexico, a consensus— embraced by both sides of the political spectrum—towards integration in global markets, both in their trade and financial components, floating exchange rates, independent monetary authorities, and sustainable fiscal policies has emerged.

Book Floating in the Deep End  How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer s

Download or read book Floating in the Deep End How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer s written by Patti Davis and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the heartfelt prose of a loving daughter, Patti Davis provides a life raft for the caregivers of Alzheimer’s patients. “For the decade of my father’s illness, I felt as if I was floating in the deep end, tossed by waves, carried by currents, but not drowning,” writes Patti Davis in this searingly honest and deeply moving account of the challenges involved in taking care of someone stricken with Alzheimer’s. When her father, the fortieth president of the United States, announced his Alzheimer’s diagnosis in an address to the American public in 1994, the world had not yet begun speaking about this cruel, mysterious disease. Yet overnight, Ronald Reagan and his immediate family became the face of Alzheimer’s, and Davis, once content to keep her family at arm’s length, quickly moved across the country to be present during “the journey that would take [him] into the sunset of [his] life.” Empowered by all she learned from caring for her father—about the nature of the illness, but also about the loss of a parent—Davis founded a support group for the family members and friends of Alzheimer’s patients. Along with a medically trained cofacilitator, she met with hundreds of exhausted and devastated attendees to talk through their pain and confusion. While Davis was aware that her own circumstances were uniquely fortunate, she knew there were universal truths about dementia, and even surprising gifts to be found in a long goodbye. With Floating in the Deep End, Davis draws on a welter of experiences to provide a singular account of battling Alzheimer’s. Eloquently woven with personal anecdotes and helpful advice tailored specifically for the overlooked caregiver, this essential guide covers every potential stage of the disease from the initial diagnosis through the ultimate passing and beyond. Including such tips as how to keep a loved one hygienic, and careful responses for when they drift to a time gone by, Davis always stresses the emotional milestones that come with slow-burning grief. Along the way, Davis shares how her own fractured family came together. With unflinching candor, she recalls when her mother, Nancy, who for decades could not show her children compassion or vulnerability, suddenly broke down in her arms. Davis also offers tender moments in which her father, a fabled movie star whom she always longed to know better, revealed his true self—always kind, even when he couldn’t recognize his own daughter. An inherently wise work that promises to become a classic, Floating in the Deep End ultimately provides hope to struggling families while elegantly illuminating the fragile human condition.

Download or read book The Floating Admiral written by The Detection Club and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2019-07-09 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s “great fun” when a baker’s dozen of Golden Age authors collaborate on a whodunit—including Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers, and G. K. Chesterton (The Guardian). Originally published in 1931, The Floating Admiral is a classic literary collaboration by members of the Detection Club, in which each chapter is written by a different mystery author, with G. K. Chesterton adding a prologue after the novel was completed. Each writer was tasked with building on what the previous writer created, without ignoring or avoiding whatever plot points had come before. Although Anthony Berkeley wrote the definitive conclusion to the mystery in his final chapter, the writers all provided their own individual solutions, each in a sealed envelope, which appear in the appendix. In the words of Dorothy L. Sayers in her introduction, the spirit of the project was that of a “detection game,” for the amusement of the authors—and their readers. In the sleepy English seaside village of Whynmouth, an old sailor discovers a corpse floating serenely in a rowboat owned by the local vicar. The victim has been stabbed in the chest. It falls to Inspector Rudge to solve this most baffling mystery, in which not only the identity of the killer but the identity of the victim is called into question. The Floating Admiral includes contributions by Canon Victor L. Whitechurch, G. D. H. and Margaret Cole, Henry Wade, Agatha Christie, John Rhode, Milward Kennedy, Dorothy L. Sayers, Ronald A. Knox, Freeman Wills Crofts, Edgar Jepson, Clemence Dane, and Anthony Berkeley. “I was . . . hugely entertained by the virtuoso displays of mental gymnastics, which kept me guessing all the way.” —The Guardian
