Book excerpt: I once believed Monique was the girl of my dreams, but I couldn't have been more wrong. When Sydney came back into my life, the thought of me JUST getting my best friend back was only the tip of the iceberg. Feelings I didn't know I had for her started to surface.

Download or read book We are Australian Vol 1 Colour Edition written by Rina Robinson and published by Linda Ruth Brooks. This book was released on 2011-05-26 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You know us. We are your cousin Alice, who tells the story of Nanna's funeral; how all the cars followed Uncle George in the wrong direction, while a priest stood by the grave, waiting to conduct the burial. We are your dad, who you visit on warm summer nights, and he talks about the old days; when he met mum; when he worked in the cane fields. We are the migrant family next door, who laugh till they cry, telling of how, when they arrived in the fifties, they went to the milk bar for a gelati. The owner kept saying "Gilleti" and offering them razor blades. We are the Vietnamese mother who tells you one day how she came to Australia. She quietly talks of three weeks at sea in a small boat, crammed in with twenty others, knees to chest, cold, wet and hungry. We are anyone who has lived in Australia since the 1930s. Often, our stories will be your stories; but some will be strange, different; some will be funny and others will bring tears. We are the story tellers who started with memories that turned into stories. We wrote them down, and learned the frustration when the words wouldn't come; and experienced that magical moment when the words took over, and the story wrote itself. We became authors. Now here we are. These are our stories; our country's living history, by the best historians of all - those who lived it. John McBride (2010)
Download or read book Rock My Soul written by Stephen G. Metzger and published by Stansbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-16 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On June 28, 2015, retired California State University, Chico librarian Jim Dwyer was found unconscious on the floor of the men’s room in a mini-mart outside Sacramento, apparently on his way home from the Bay Area opening night of the Grateful Dead’s Fare Thee Well tour. He died that evening in a nearby hospital. A nationally recognized literary scholar, Jim had dubbed his alter ego the Rev. Junkyard Moondog, reading beat-like poetry at open mics, joining local bands on stage, marching for peace and justice, working to save endangered species, and generally raising his freak flag high. A year after Jim’s death, his friend and colleague Steve Metzger bought Jim’s tiny run-down cottage from Jim’s brother Billy, whose only condition was that Metzger not remove Jim’s giant peace sign—fashioned of yellow and white freeway-lane divider dots—from the sloping street-facing roof of the house. Metzger, adjusting to recent personal changes of his own, set about restoring the cottage. He eventually christened it the Blue Peace House. Part biography, part memoir, Rock My Soul: A Poet’s Heart, a Brokedown Palace, and a Final Fare-Thee-Well examines Jim’s complicated life, drawing on extensive interviews with Jim’s neighbors, friends and colleagues. The book also highlights turning points in Metzger’s 40-year freelance writing career, along the way offering a look at Chico history, including the filming of The Adventures of Robin Hood, Woody Guthrie’s little-known summer in Chico, the WWII Chico Army Air Field, and the beginnings of the Chico Peace and Justice Center. Facebook posts from Jim’s/Moondog’s friends after they learn of his death shed further light on the life of this eccentric scholar/artist.
Download or read book Sydney Blumenthal The World s First Digital Human written by R J Harris and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-08-25 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story is a bizarre adventure in neuroscience. It describes a small group of scientists and friends working in Oxford who, because of an accident, are forced to embrace the principle of self-experimentation. The consequences of their actions are not only unforeseen but quite unprecedented in the world of biological science - especially when they digitalise the entire conscious personality of Sydney Blumenthal, a leading member of the group. As the story unfolds it tries - I hope in an entertaining way - to explore the tantalising cross-over between computer science, genetics and medical science, together with some of the strange, legal and ethical ramifications this cross-over creates. It is this potent, fertile mixture of disciplines which, in many ways, is already defining the future of medicine. However, I have no doubt that the medical wonders which will in fact come to define the future, will far outstrip the imaginative scope of this story.

Download or read book Dancing at the Pity Party written by Tyler Feder and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This acclaimed graphic memoir that Kirkus calls “cathartic and uplifting” is the tale of losing a parent and what it feels like to grieve and to move forward. “I can’t recommend this kind, funny, and poignant memoir enough. It’s an intimate, life-affirming story of resilience that feels like a good friend.” —Mari Andrew, author of Am I There Yet? Tyler Feder had just white-knuckled her way through her first year of college when her super cool mom was diagnosed with late-stage cancer. Now, with a decade of grief and nervous laughter under her belt, Tyler shares the story of that gut-wrenching, heart-pounding, extremely awkward time in her life—from her mom’s first oncology appointment to her funeral through the beginning of facing reality as a motherless daughter. She shares the sting of loss that never goes away, the uncomfortable post-death firsts, and the deep-down, hard-to-talk-about feelings of the grieving process. Dancing at the Pity Party is a frank and refreshingly funny look at what it’s like to grieve—for anyone struggling with loss who just wants someone to get it.

Download or read book Sydney and Violet written by Stephen Klaidman and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This long overdue biography of the power couple who nurtured and influenced the literary world of early twentieth-century England offers an intimate look at their dazzling circle. Sydney and Violet Schiff were ubiquitous, Zelig-like figures in the most important literary movement of the twentieth century. Sydney was an admired writer and Violet was a talented musician who was among the first in England to recognize Proust’s genius; their friendships among the elite of the Modernist writers were remarkable and extensive. Stephen Klaidman tells the story of how the Schiffs, despite their commercial and Jewish origins, won a central place in the snobbish, anti-Semitic, literary world of the time. A colorful, highly personal account of the Modernist movement, Sydney and Violet brings to life a panoply of extravagant personalities: Proust, Joyce, Picasso, Mansfield, Wyndham Lewis, T. S. Eliot, Aldous Huxley, and more.
Download or read book Isabel Allende written by Mary Ellen Snodgrass and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-03-26 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isabel Allende--"la Famosa" to her fellow Chileans--is the world's most widely read Spanish language author. Her career coincides with the emergence of multiculturalism and global feminism, and her powerfully honest, revelatory works touch the pulse points of humankind. Her bravura study of the interwoven roles of women in family history opens the minds of outsiders to the sufferings of women and their children during years of social and political nightmare. This reference work provides an introduction to Allende's life as well as a guided overview of her body of work. Designed for the fan and scholar alike, this text features an alphabetized, fully-annotated listing of major terms in the Allende canon, including fictional characters, motifs, historical events and themes. A comprehensive index is included.
