Download or read book Piano Dreams written by David Waples and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gravestone peddler Fraser Stephens is prematurely slouching towards middle age, with one hundred pounds of extra weight, the burden of caring for a child with mild cerebral palsy, and a wife who is having an affair--with another woman. Depressed, and on the verge of doing himself in, Fraser hears the host of a radio call-in show who becomes his ghostly motivational coach in an effort to turn his life around. He begins an uncertain journey, riddled with false hopes and colossal personal mistakes before he sees real progress. Fraser visualizes playing a piano at a ski lodge and meeting the woman of his dreams, but his fantasy will come true only if he understands what he truly must recognize--his own self-worth. Piano Dreams is the inspirational rags-to-riches, sometimes heartbreaking, but often funny novel of self-discovery that leads a man to his ultimate beautiful reward.

Download or read book Three Pianos written by Andrew McMahon and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From beloved indie musician Andrew McMahon comes a searingly honest and beautifully written memoir about the challenges and triumphs of his life and career, as seen through the lens of his personal connection to three pianos. Andrew McMahon grew up in sunny Southern California as a child prodigy, learning to play piano and write songs at a very early age, stunning schoolmates and teachers alike with his gift for performing and his unique ability to emotionally connect with audiences. McMahon would go on to become the lead singer and songwriter for Something Corporate and Jack's Mannequin, and to release his debut solo album, Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness, in 2014. But behind this seemingly optimistic and quintessentially American story of big dreams come true lies a backdrop of overwhelming challenges that McMahon has faced—from a childhood defined by his father's struggle with addiction to his very public battle with leukemia in 2005 at the age of twenty-three, as chronicled in the intensely personal documentary Dear Jack. Overcoming those odds, McMahon has found solace and hope in the things that matter most, including family, the healing power of music and the one instrument he's always turned to: his piano. Three Pianos takes readers on a beautifully rendered and bitter-sweet American journey, one filled with inspiration, heartbreak, and an unwavering commitment to shedding our past in order to create a better future.
