Download or read book Nightwork written by Irwin Shaw and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller: The story of a down-on-his-luck desk clerk, a con man, and a fortune from the author of Rich Man, Poor Man. Pilot Douglas Grimes’s best days are long behind him. Grounded due to a medical condition, Grimes has resigned himself to working nights at a seedy hotel. But his fortune flips when he discovers a guest dead from a heart attack and, next to him, a tube jammed with a fortune in cold hard cash. Grimes grabs the money and, with it, the chance to remake his life. Then, in Europe, he meets Miles Fabian, an elegant and erudite con man with a flair for extravagance. Fabian recruits Grimes for his latest ploy: robbing members of the idle rich. But when the fun ends and his bad behavior catches up with him, things will get a lot more dangerous in this clever thriller from the multimillion-selling legend who brought us The Young Lions and countless other bestsellers. Known for both his literary talent—with two O. Henry Awards to his name—and for his ability to tell a propulsive, full-steam-ahead story, Shaw is perfect for those who enjoy the thrillers of Marcus Sakey or Lawrence Sanders. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Irwin Shaw including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author’s estate.

Book excerpt: IRWIN AND THE AVATAR by IRWIN LUCK My True Story. I was a seeker of Truth. But what Truth? I wanted to know the Truth about everything. Is there anyone in this world who knows that? It would be like a man a million years from now coming back to our time. Could He tell us what his life was like? Or it would be like a man of today going back to cave man days. Could you tell Him what your life is like? Could he understand? Then one day I heard about the Avatar. Who is that? I read what He said as to who He is. I was impressed. I would have to meet Him. HE EXPLAINED: "I AM NOT THIS BODY THAT YOU SEE. I WEAR IT LIKE A COAT WHEN I COME DOWN AND VISIT YOU." "I HAVE COME DOWN FROM THE HIGHEST LEVEL IN ORDER TO BRING YOU UP TO MY LEVEL." "GOD-REALIZATION IS THE VERY GOAL OF ALL CREATION. ALL EARTHLY PLEASURE, HOWSOEVER GREAT, IS BUT A FLEETING SHADOW OF THE ETERNAL BLISS OF GOD-REALIZATION; ALL MUNDANE KNOWLEDGE, HOWSOEVER COMPREHENSIVE, IS BUT A DISTORTED REFLECTION OF THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH OF GOD-REALIZATION; ALL HUMAN MIGHT HOWSOEVER IMPOSING, IS BUT A FRAGMENT OF THE INFINITE POWER OF GOD-REALIZATION.""ALL THAT IS NOBLE, BEAUTIFUL AND LOVELY, ALL THAT IS GREAT AND GOOD AND INSPIRING IN THE UNIVERSE IS JUST AN INFINITESIMAL FRACTION OF THE UNFADING AND UNSPEAKABLE GLORY OF GOD-REALIZATION." "MY EXISTENCE IS FOR THIS LOVE AND TRUTH; AND TO SUFFERING HUMANITY I SAY:""HAVE HOPE.... I HAVE COME TO HELP YOU IN WINNING THE ONE VICTORY OF ALL VICTORIES....TO WIN YOURSELF." Now I was burning to meet this Avatar. I must see for myself if all that I heard was true.He said he came to liberate us from all illusion. I came to be liberated. We were meant for each other. This book tells what happened when I met Avatar Meher Baba.

Download or read book Steve Me written by Terri Irwin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-10-30 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Terri Raines was twenty-seven years old, she took a vacation that changed her life. Leaving behind her wildlife rescue work in Oregon, Terri traveled to Australia, and there, at a small wildlife park, she met and fell in love with a tall, blond force of nature named Steve Irwin. They were married in less than a year, and Terri eagerly joined in Steve's conservation work. The footage filmed on their crocodile-trapping honeymoon became the first episode of The Crocodile Hunter, and together, Steve and Terri began to change the world. In Steve & Me, Terri recounts the unforgettable adventures they shared -- wrangling venomous snakes, saving deadly crocodiles from poachers, swimming among humpback whales. A uniquely gifted naturalist, Steve was first and foremost a wildlife warrior dedicated to rescuing endangered animals -- especially his beloved crocs -- and educating everyone he could reach about the importance of conservation. In the hit TV shows that continue to be broadcast worldwide, Steve's enthusiasm lives on, bringing little-known and often-feared species to light as he reveals and revels in the wonders of our planet. With grace, wit, and candor, Terri Irwin portrays her husband as he really was -- a devoted family man, a fervently dedicated environmentalist, a modest bloke who spoke to millions on behalf of those who could not speak for themselves. Steve & Me is a nonstop adventure, a real-life love story, and a fitting tribute to a man adored by all those whose lives he touched, written by the woman who knew and loved him best of all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lush and visual, chock-full of delicious recipes, Roselle Lim’s magical debut novel is about food, heritage, and finding family in the most unexpected places. At the news of her mother’s death, Natalie Tan returns home. The two women hadn’t spoken since Natalie left in anger seven years ago, when her mother refused to support her chosen career as a chef. Natalie is shocked to discover the vibrant neighborhood of San Francisco’s Chinatown that she remembers from her childhood is fading, with businesses failing and families moving out. She’s even more surprised to learn she has inherited her grandmother’s restaurant. The neighborhood seer reads the restaurant’s fortune in the leaves: Natalie must cook three recipes from her grandmother’s cookbook to aid her struggling neighbors before the restaurant will succeed. Unfortunately, Natalie has no desire to help them try to turn things around—she resents the local shopkeepers for leaving her alone to take care of her agoraphobic mother when she was growing up. But with the support of a surprising new friend and a budding romance, Natalie starts to realize that maybe her neighbors really have been there for her all along.
