Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER: Chanticleer Military & Frontline Awards First Place Eric Hoffer Award Grand Prize Short List Nellie Bly Book Awards Journalistic Nonfiction Finalist Literary Titan Book Award Silver Grover Nicodemus Street is a travel nurse who felt it necessary to help others in these turbulent times. He has gone to COVID hotspots in the US since the beginning of the pandemic to do so and also to help keep his wife, who is a cancer survivor safe from this deadly virus. He also encountered many unbelievable events, like being suddenly stuck in the middle of a Black Lives Matter protest in New York, the storms of Florida last summer, and the gigafire of California. Grover’s wife, Dr. Sandra de Abreu Guidry-Street stayed at home and researched the virus while he was working on the front lines. Even though he tried as hard as he could to keep COVID-19 away from his wife, it was not possible. Grover felt compelled to write about his travels to share his experiences and shed light on the actual reality of the patients and healthcare workers who are behind the closed doors of hospitals. He did not know how to start. Ja-ne de Abreu, his sister-in-law, just finished writing Sassy Food, about her polar opposite pandemic experience of quarantining while caregiving and growing food. As they discussed it, she became immediately inspired as to how to construct his wild year. Chasing the Surge is a compelling story about this global pandemic but also to dispel misbeliefs about this virus and the vaccine. Being a Black American, Grover is dedicating a portion of the proceeds towards educating minority communities about coronavirus and the safety of the vaccine.

Download or read book A Life Terminal written by Jane Doe and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Life Terminal is a novel in the medical setting, which follows the comical escapades of characters from vastly different worlds. They range from the eccentric walks of life - a senior citizen prostitute to an austere billionaire - to the very ordinary. We share in their joy and grief, courage and foolishness, as they putter through the clutter of everyday life, cope with grotesque rules, and eventually hurtle toward their inevitable fates. As in life, some of these characters disappear from view following a brief random encounter; others become integral players in the story. They travel separate haphazard journeys but, as they navigate together through the illogical hurdles of our healthcare system, their lives become oddly intertwined. Beneath their differences, they share common hopes, fears and vulnerabilities, living out the same story over and over again. Jane Doe was an ordinary person born into an average family. She grew up in a small town in a working class neighborhood. Odd circumstances brought her into the city, where she started a new life. She became a doctor, which gave her the opportunity to enter the worlds of people from diverse backgrounds, of various stations of life. She was allowed to share with them some of their innermost thoughts and most difficult moments. Inspired by their common plight, she wrote a book A Life Terminal. Then she disappeared into the obscurity from whence she came.

Download or read book Collected Poems written by C. K. Williams and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 707 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collected Poems brings together nearly four decades of C. K.Williams's work: more than four hundred poems that, though remarkable in their variety, have in common Williams's distinctive outlook—restless, passionate, dogged, and uncompromising in the drive to find words for the truth about life as we know it today. Williams's rangy, elastic lines are measures of thought, and in these pages we watch them unfold from his confrontational early poems through the open, expansive Tar and With Ignorance. His voice is both cerebral and muscular, capable of both the eightline poems of Flesh and Blood and the inward soundings of A Dream of Mind—and of both together in the award-winning recent books Repair and The Singing. These poems feel spontaneous, individual, and directly representative of the experience of which they sing; open to life, they chafe against summary and conclusion. Few poets leave behind them a body of work that is global in its ambition and achievement. C. K. Williams is one of them.

Download or read book Repair written by Charles Kenneth Williams and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1999 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the eighth book - and the most various yet - from a major American poet. Williams's subjects, again, are love, death, the secrets kept and the pain unexpressed among intimates, social disorder and despair, the waywardness of thought, and the metaphoric exultation of the natural world. A long poem about the 1960s, "King," ponders the confused motives and racial misunderstandings of that period, and of our own.

Download or read book Radical Passions written by Kendall Hale and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-11-02 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The author takes you right along with her as she protests on the barricades during the tumultuous 1960's, works in a shipyard in the 1970's, builds a health clinic in Nicaragua in the 1980s, turns 50 in Peru in 2000, and searches for inner peace and balance every step of the way. These pages reveal how Kendall did indeed fulfill her destiny as a seeker/warrior-and to the reader's good fortune is now a writer as well. Don't miss it." -Max Elbaum, author, Revolution in the Air Brimming with honesty, humor, and zeal, Kendall Hale's memoir shares her remarkable journey from youthful adolescence to thoughtful maturity in Radical Passions. Shaped within the context of major historical events from the turbulent 1960s to today, Hale follows her evolution from being the daughter of Mormon parents to becoming a member of the Students for a Democratic Society and achieving spiritual maturity in her later years. Hale's journey is personal, yet universal. She explores her early college years protesting the Vietnam War, her young adulthood struggles in Boston with the new communist, feminist, and labor movements, and her transition to marriage and family. From her search for the socialist dream in Castro's Cuba, Mao's China, and Nicaragua during the Contra War to her role as a wife, mother, and veteran of a fractured marriage, Hale reveals her growing understanding of the world around her. A move to Asheville, North Carolina, spurred the birth and maturation of her spiritual quest. Hale describes how therapy, Buddhism, and spiritual travels in India, South America, and the Pacific led her back to the Blue Ridge mountains in a community replete with rednecks, polygamists, voracious developers, environmentalists, and New Age dreamers. Transitioning into menopause and the second half of life, Hale faces the challenges of aging and its potential flowering of wisdom and integration. A story for all who seek deeper meaning in their lives, Radical Passions is the inspiring tale of an ordinary woman's extraordinary life.
