Book excerpt: The Pulitzer Prize–winning memoir about coming of age in America between the world wars: “So warm, so likable and so disarmingly funny” (The New York Times). One of the New York Times’ “50 Best Memoirs of the Past 50 Years” Ranging from the backwoods of Virginia to a New Jersey commuter town to the city of Baltimore, this remarkable memoir recounts Russell Baker’s experience of growing up in pre–World War II America, before he went on to a celebrated career in journalism. With poignant, humorous tales of powerful love, awkward sex, and courage in the face of adversity, Baker reveals how he helped his mother and family through the Great Depression by delivering papers and hustling subscriptions to the Saturday Evening Post—a job which introduced him to bullies, mentors, and heroes who endured this national disaster with hard work and good cheer. Called “a treasure” by Anne Tyler and “a blessing” by Time magazine, this autobiography is a modern-day classic—“a wondrous book [with scenes] as funny and touching as Mark Twain’s” (Los Angeles Times Book Review). “In lovely, haunting prose, he has told a story that is deeply in the American grain.” —The Washington Post Book World “A terrific book.” —St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Download or read book Growing Up King written by Dexter Scott King and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2003-01-07 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the bestselling tradition of such family portraits as Brooke Hayward's Haywire and Christopher Dickey's Summer of Deliverance comes a disarmingly candid memoir from the youngest son of Martin Luther King, Jr. Dexter King was only seven when an assassin's bullet took his father's life, shattering the boy's childhood. And as he stumbled into adolescence, both the tragedy and the weight of living up to "the King legacy" would exact an additional toll. Challenged with undiagnosed A.D.D. and rocked once again by his grandmother's murder, King became emotionally isolated and, in his early 30s, sought answers from an inspiring source: the teachings of Martin Luther King, Jr. Now, in this intimate portrait, Dexter King reveals for the first time what it was like growing up in the shadow of greatness, and how his father's lessons continue to inspire and inform his own ideas on race in America today.

Download or read book Growing Up Absurd written by Paul Goodman and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Goodman’s Growing Up Absurd was a runaway best seller when it was first published in 1960, and it became one of the defining texts of the New Left. Goodman was a writer and thinker who broke every mold and did it brilliantly—he was a novelist, poet, and a social theorist, among a host of other things—and the book’s surprise success established him as one of America’s most unusual and trenchant critics, combining vast learning, an astute mind, utopian sympathies, and a wonderfully hands-on way with words. For Goodman, the unhappiness of young people was a concentrated form of the unhappiness of American society as a whole, run by corporations that provide employment (if and when they do) but not the kind of meaningful work that engages body and soul. Goodman saw the young as the first casualties of a humanly repressive social and economic system and, as such, the front line of potential resistance. Noam Chomsky has said, “Paul Goodman’s impact is all about us,” and certainly it can be felt in the powerful localism of today’s renascent left. A classic of anarchist thought, Growing Up Absurd not only offers a penetrating indictment of the human costs of corporate capitalism but points the way forward. It is a tale of yesterday’s youth that speaks directly to our common future.

Download or read book Growing Up Old School written by Tab LaFollette and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-08-03 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up old school means that you lived in one of the greatest time periods in America to be a kid. It means that you played outside everyday, all day long and that you got dirty and hurt. You did things you weren't supposed to and you probably had some close calls but you lived through them; now those are the funny stories you tell of ""remember when."" It means that you were expected to eat SPAM and fried baloney. You probably got picked on by some bullies but you probably played plenty of pranks yourself. Your dad would let you sit on his lap and drive the car on back country roads. Your parents smoked, drank, cussed, and beat your butt when you deserved it. We had great music and played it loudly; we danced, and grew our hair long, and lived everyday like it might be our last. I think I've nearly perfectly exemplified what it was like growing up in the 60's and 70's. It is a journey that will evoke fond memories and once they are dusted off, I can guarantee that you will feel young again.
