Download or read book All My Cats written by Bohumil Hrabal and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A literary master’s story about the aggravations and great joys of cats, from “a most sophisticated novelist, with a gusting humor and a hushed tenderness of detail” (Julian Barnes) In the autumn of 1965, flush with the unexpected success of his first published books, the Czech author Bohumil Hrabal bought a cottage in Kersko. From then until his death in 1997, he divided his time between Prague and his country retreat, where he wrote and tended to a community of feral cats. Over the years, his relationship to cats grew deeper and more complex, becoming a measure of the pressures, both private and public, that impinged on his life as a writer. All My Cats, written in 1983 after a serious car accident, is a confessional memoir, the chronicle of an author who becomes overwhelmed. As he is driven to the brink of madness by the dilemmas created by his indulgent love for the animals, there are episodes of intense brutality as he controls the feline population. Yet in the end, All My Cats is a book about Hrabal’s relationship to nature, about the unlikely sources of redemption that come to him unbidden, like a gift from the cosmos—and about love.
Download or read book Praying with Katie written by Don Holt and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when Don Holt's life was full of difficult problems to worry about and he endured many sleepless nights, he spent several hours each day praying, meditating, and writing in his journal. As he sat on the sofa writing, his cat, Katie, would join him, leap into his lap, rub against his pen, and sniff at his face. At first he was annoyed with this interruption of his important spiritual work. But one day she climbed onto his shoulder and went to sleep. It struck him that this was precisely the relationship he wished he had with God - that metaphorically he could just lay his head on the Divine Shoulder and get a good night's sleep. His collected reflections are presented in Praying with Katie, a profound commentary on the meaning of God, faith, and life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generalist Social Work Practice provides students with the foundational skills and knowledge needed to serve clients across micro, mezzo and macro areas of practice. Author Janice Gasker brings a focus on self-reflection as the first stage in the planned change process and writes with the perspective that we consider work at all levels of practice simultaneously rather than in isolation. In accordance with the 2015 Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) set forth by the Council of Social Work Education (CSWE), the planned change process is presented as dynamic and interactive, providing students with a clear understanding of how each stage of the planned change process can be utilized at any point when serving a client system. The text spotlights the distinctive characteristics of the worker—their values, attitudes, and experiences—that may influence client interaction. The text also includes case studies, collaborative learning exercises, and critical thinking questions to help students apply concepts to practice.
