Download or read book Family Circle written by Susan Braudy and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Kathy Boudin was arrested in 1981 after a botched armed robbery and shootout that left a Brinks guard and two policemen dead, she ended a decade living underground as part of the radical Weathermen underground; she would spend the next 22 years in Bedford Hills prison. In Family Circle, Boudin’s former classmate Susan Braudy vividly re-creates the radicalization of this intelligent, privileged young woman who came from one of the most prominent liberal intellectual families in America. She illuminates Boudin’s relationship with her parents --and particularly with her father Leonard, a famous leftist lawyer--and shows how Kathy, swept up in the ferment of the late 1960s, moved further and further from the Old Left ideals they embodied. Based on extensive interviews, court documents, and Boudin family papers,Family Circle is both a rich biography of a family and a intimate window into a turbulent and fascinating time.

Book excerpt: The debut picture book from the creator of the viral sensation Kid President is a moving take on how we can create bigger and bigger circles of community and connections as we grow—now a New York Times bestseller! In the circles all around us, everywhere that we all go, there's a difference we can make and a love we can all show. This is the story of a circle. When we're first born, our circle is very small, but as we grow and build relationships, our circle keeps getting bigger and bigger to include family, friends, neighbors, community, and beyond. Brad Montague originally created Circles as an Instagram video adorably narrated by his kids, and now this picture book adaptation is the perfect way to start a conversation about how to expand our worlds with kindness and inclusivity—even if it seems scary or uncomfortable. This book makes an ideal new-baby, first-day-of-school, or graduation gift, or any milestone that celebrates someone's world getting bigger.

Book excerpt: An illuminating portrait of family and community life among Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe, prepared in the 1930s through the WPA Federal Writers' Project, is published here in English for the first time. The WPA Yiddish Writers' Group, headed by I.E. Rontch, conducted an ambitious study of some 2,500 landsmanshaftn, associations of Jewish immigrants from the same hometown that played an important role in helping newcomers adjust to life in America. The results of the survey, an incomparable source for the study of Jewish immigration history, were disseminated in two Yiddish volumes in 1938 and 1939; however, the project ended before this abridged English version could be published.

Book excerpt: My fondest hope is that my children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren will learn to follow their hearts, love their parents, and depend on God and keep His laws. Always putting God first will keep them free from the destructive forces in life. I have known the pain of a child who puts drugs before everything else. There is in all parents a sense that we should have been able to protect our children from those things; learning not to blame ourselves is a long, hard battle. Finally, I hope that one day my children and grandchildren will realize how much they mean to me and how much I love them, and that the day I leave them on this side will not change that love. Just me - Jack
Download or read book Circles Around the Sun written by Molly McCloskey and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An author attempts to uncover who her older brother was before schizophrenia took hold of him in this “clear-eyed and heartbreaking” memoir (Publishers Weekly). Molly McClosky’s brother Mike was fourteen when she was born. So far apart in age, she barely knew him before schizophrenia took hold of him at the age of twenty-three. Within a few years, Mike’s world began to fall apart. By the time Molly was old enough to begin to know him, Mike was heavily medicated and frequently delusional, living in hospitals or care homes or on the road. Years later, through reading an astonishing archive of letters preserved by her mother and grandmother, and interviewing old friends of Mike's, Molly began to piece together a picture of her brother's life, before and after the illness struck—the story of how a gifted and well-liked student and athlete was overtaken by a terrible illness that rendered him unrecognizable. Now she tells that story, which is also the story of her own demons and of the ways in which a seemingly perfect family can slowly fall apart, and in the end, regroup.

Download or read book Barbed Circles written by Cornel A. Vena and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-11-10 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Cornel Vena was just a teenager when World War II ended, changing life in the tiny Transylvanian village of his childhood forever. A ruthless Bolshevik army swarmed over the land, and his family faced an uncertain future living under a communist regime. But it soon became clear that the country was keen to promote its athletic prowess on an international stage, offering a glimmer of hope to the young man. If Cornel could shoot, ride, fence, run, and swim well enough, he might be able to find freedom. Success in the sporting arena offered better conditions for athletes and priceless opportunities to escape the constraints of communism; however, the athletes who survived the intense training regimen could not fail. An entire country counted on them to succeed, and losing was not tolerated. The weak would be punished, and those who succeeded would be rewarded. Join Cornel as he prepares to confront superhuman physical challenges in this inspiring true story of one mans quest for freedom, set against the backdrop of the 1956 Olympic Games. Romanians, history students and athletes alike will find important lessons that continue to resonate today in Barbed Circles: The Perfect Score.
