Book We Need to Talk About Kevin

Download or read book We Need to Talk About Kevin written by Lionel Shriver and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiration for the film starring Tilda Swinton and John C. Reilly, this resonant story of a mother’s unsettling quest to understand her teenage son’s deadly violence, her own ambivalence toward motherhood, and the explosive link between them remains terrifyingly prescient. Eva never really wanted to be a mother. And certainly not the mother of a boy who murdered seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much–adored teacher in a school shooting two days before his sixteenth birthday. Neither nature nor nurture exclusively shapes a child's character. But Eva was always uneasy with the sacrifices and social demotion of motherhood. Did her internalized dislike for her own son shape him into the killer he’s become? How much is her fault? Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with Kevin’s horrific rampage, all in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklin. A piercing, unforgettable, and penetrating exploration of violence and responsibility, a book that the Boston Globe describes as “impossible to put down,” is a stunning examination of how tragedy affects a town, a marriage, and a family.

Book Remembering Arthur Miller

Download or read book Remembering Arthur Miller written by Christopher Bigsby and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflections on the late Arthur Miller from over seventy writers, actors, directors and friends, with 'Arthur Miller Remembers', an interview with the writer from 1995. Following his death in February 2005, newspapers were filled with tributes to the man regarded by many as the greatest playwright of the twentieth century. Published as a celebration and commemoration of his life, Part I of Remembering Arthur Miller is a collection of over seventy specially commissioned pieces from writers, actors, directors and friends, providing personal, critical and professional commentary on the man who gave the theatre such timeless classics as All my Sons, A View from the Bridge, The Death of a Salesman, and The Crucible. Contributors read like a Who's Who of theatre, film and literature: Edward Albee, Alan Ayckbourn, Brian Cox, Richard Eyre, Joseph Fiennes, Nadine Gordimer, Dustin Hoffman, Warren Mitchell, Harold Pinter, Vanessa Redgrave and Tom Stoppard, to name but a few. Part II, 'Arthur Miller Remembers', is an in-depth and wide-ranging interview conducted with Miller in 1995. Bigsby's expertise and Miller's candour produce a wonderfully insightful commentary and analysis both of Miller's life and the life of twentieth century America. It covers Miller's upbringing in Harlem, the Depression, marriage to Marilyn Monroe, post-war America, being sentenced to prison by the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1956, and his presidency of the writer's organisation, PEN International. The discourse also provides a commentary on and analysis of his many plays andMiller's reflections on the Amercian theatre.

Book Thirty Years in a White Haze

Download or read book Thirty Years in a White Haze written by Dan Egan and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sheltered in a snow cave on Mount Elbrus in 1990, I stared into the mouth of a storm on the tallest peak on the European continent, a merciless mountain that claims more lives per year than Everest. When I emerged from the white haze of that storm alive, after so many had perished, I had no idea how this event would impact the next 30 years of my life. "My brother John and I-known as the Egan Brothers-could be seen on the Discovery Channel, ESPN, and were featured in twelve Warren Miller Ski Films during the 1980s and 1990s. We found our place in history as storytellers and East Coast renegades of skiing, and were inducted into the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame in 2017. "Thirty Years in a White Haze is a tale of trials, success, and loss told through worldwide adventure and the evolution of extreme skiing as thirty years of haze dissipates to clarity." -Dan Egan

Book Draft Animals

Download or read book Draft Animals written by Phil Gaimon and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the cult favorite Pro Cycling on $10 a Day and Ask a Pro, the story of one man’s quest to realize his childhood dream, and what happened when he actually did it. Like countless other kids, Phil Gaimon grew up dreaming of being a professional athlete. But unlike countless other kids, he actually pulled it off. After years of amateur races, hard training, living out of a suitcase, and never taking “no” for an answer, he finally achieved his goal and signed a contract to race professionally on one of the best teams in the world. Now, Gaimon pulls back the curtain on the WorldTour, cycling’s highest level. He takes readers along for his seasons in Europe, covering everything from rabid, water-bottle-stealing Belgian fans, to contract renewals, to riding in poisonous smog, to making friends in a sport plagued by doping. Draft Animals reveals a story as much about bike racing as it is about the never-ending ladder of achieving goals, failure, and finding happiness if you land somewhere in-between.

Book excerpt: Courage to Persevere is a true, heroic account of Bill Fallon's battle with a rare birth defect and his recovery. On November 29, 1990 Bill Fallon learned that he had two Arterial Venous Malformations while being checked for persistent headaches he had suffered since childhood. He was a successful real estate broker, professional skier and enjoyed all the creature comforts that accompany life in the fast lane. His material and physical world crashed around him and he had to undergo more than 50 hours of experimental brain surgery. He discovered strength in his family; and skiing provided the goal that helped him focus on recovery. This is a story about facing some of life's toughest challenges and finding a way to rebuild one's life--learning to walk, read and live again. It is a testament to mental focus, hard work and the strength that comes from close friends and family. Bill Fallon, one of America's most successful real estate dealmakers and a former professional ski racer, relates how a strong family and a focus on returning to skiing helped with his physical and psychological healing. With an introduction by Merv Griffin Thousands of people have serious surgery every year; this book is an inspirational tale that can help with any patient's recovery
