Download or read book Silent Sun written by Solomon Gross and published by Associated University Presses. This book was released on 1992 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Silent Sun is the story of one man's quest for his heritage - a chronicle of hardships experienced in Nazi labor camps; a tribute, also, to the human spirit." "From the nights of September 1939, when caravans of Polish cavalry passed too quietly beneath his windows in Chrzanow, Poland, Solomon Gross was filled with a sense of foreboding. By 1940, his fears were realized as he found himself in Sakran, a Nazi labor camp - cutting sod in the warm weather, shoveling snow in a cold that froze his canvas-clogged feet, living on potato soup. Conditions worsened from day to day." "But if the camp at Sakran was "the most difficult physical experience" for Gross, the Graditz camp he was moved to in 1941 was difficult in its own way - "a trial of a totally different nature" . . . a place where, for a time, one hundred people lived on rations meant for forty. In the two and a half years Gross was shuttled between Graditz and another camp called Faulbruck, his survival instincts emerged with new fervor: he smuggled potatoes from the camp kitchen in his knickerbockers; he ate sugar beets - or "swine fodder" - for as long as he could stomach them. And ever and again he made his blacksmithing talents a distraction to the Germans - a cover for operations of survival." "In the second half of 1944, Gross was moved from Graditz to Sportschule, a division of the Grossrosen concentration camp. There, he had to give up his own clothes for a striped, burlap uniform, and his hair to the crude barbering instruments of his captors. And yet, in such bleak surroundings, he persevered - wrote inspiring letters to his future wife, Dorka, smuggled food to his mother, shared rations with his friend Berek." "Writes Gross, "Some, like myself, spent close to four years waiting for the great day." Indeed. Four years. Something like a college education - only with an infinitely more grueling course load, and participation in graduation an uncertainty. Fortunately for Gross, convocation came with the buzzing of Allied bombers: in the midst of death machines was deliverance." "Life during the war had not been without occasional pleasures, or even joys. Through those years in the camp, Gross had shared a sweet courtship with Dorka, after all, and experienced the kindness of sympathetic peasants and half-hearted enemies. Conversely, postwar life was not without its trials. Some of Gross's Russian liberators, for instance, proved crude in their pursuit of victory's "spoils." But Gross, like so many of the liberated Jews, was irrepressible. Like the great silent sun he longed to be warmed by, Solomon Gross was ever persistent. In its rays, he found his heritage."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

Download or read book COWS on the MOOVE written by Old Man Crowe and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-08-22 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to a Paradelle Universe; where rigid rules are transcended and creative imagination discovers ever surprising potentialities. A universe where formalized and uncompromising poetic structures succumb to a radicalized deconstruction of their basic elements; then reconstructed through an almost word by word re-ordering and reinvention of the poems original meaning, images and intent. The Paradelle is a form of poetry whose time is now: a time of stagnating social theories, fossilized religious traditions, and a political system paralyzed by its own impossibilities. A time of constant unrelenting change and adaptation, of innovative ideas reconfiguring outdated concepts and beliefs; of individual and collective human consciousness expanding beyond existing borders and horizons. A Paradelle reflects this evolving planetary process in the fundamental reinvention of itself ... never exactly certain of where its going or how it will get there; yet always managing to arrive at the coherent conclusion of its revealed destination. Even then the Paradelle refuses to become a static statement of all that has been said and done. The poem learns from each rewriting how to speak for itself. All that a Paradelle asks for is a fair hearing. To be given a voice ... for the blessing of living breath.
