Things become more complicated when first, Jack's father and then Amy's uncle turn up. Both take a keen interest in Charley's Aunt, "from Brazil - where the nuts come from."

Book Travels with Charley in Search of America

Download or read book Travels with Charley in Search of America written by John Steinbeck and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1997-04-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate journey across America, as told by one of its most beloved writers A Penguin Classic In September 1960, John Steinbeck embarked on a journey across America. He felt that he might have lost touch with the country, with its speech, the smell of its grass and trees, its color and quality of light, the pulse of its people. To reassure himself, he set out on a voyage of rediscovery of the American identity, accompanied by a distinguished French poodle named Charley; and riding in a three-quarter-ton pickup truck named Rocinante. His course took him through almost forty states: northward from Long Island to Maine; through the Midwest to Chicago; onward by way of Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana (with which he fell in love), and Idaho to Seattle, south to San Francisco and his birthplace, Salinas; eastward through the Mojave, New Mexico, Arizona, to the vast hospitality of Texas, to New Orleans and a shocking drama of desegregation; finally, on the last leg, through Alabama, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey to New York. Travels with Charley in Search of America is an intimate look at one of America's most beloved writers in the later years of his life—a self-portrait of a man who never wrote an explicit autobiography. Written during a time of upheaval and racial tension in the South—which Steinbeck witnessed firsthand—Travels with Charley is a stunning evocation of America on the eve of a tumultuous decade. This Penguin Classics edition includes an introduction by Jay Parini. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Fearing for his life, Charlie strikes a deal with Cap’n Buck and agrees to track down some folks accused of stealing from the cap’n and his boss. It’s not too bad of a bargain for Charlie . . . until he comes face-to-face with the fugitives and discovers their true identities.

Book Life with Charley

Download or read book Life with Charley written by Sherry Palmer and published by Zharmae. This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a clergy couple has a baby it's big news. When they adopt a baby, it's even bigger news. But when they adopt a baby with special needs? Everyone is tested. All the couple wants is to be parents. Little do they know that adopting a baby with Down syndrome breaks all the rules. What the family wants is to talk them out of it. Thus begins a phone-calling campaign of do-gooders warning of the pitfalls. Surely this couple has no idea what they are doing. Surely they realize it's a lifetime choice. What these well-intentioned people don't know is that it's the chance of a lifetime. What the church wants is a typical pastor's family (The handsome Pastor. The thin, perfect pastor's wife. The well-behaved, well-mannered preacher's kid). What they get is the polar opposite, and what they find out is that sometimes even church life can have it's challenges. Throw out the textbooks, step into the classroom of real life and meet a colorful cast of characters (and angels) as you journey through this honest, intimate, hilarious, and poignant look at the marriage between family, church, school, and community, the secret chaos of parenting a special needs child, and the profound impact it has on all who open their hearts with unconditional love. Add to that, a young man named Charley who is unimpressed with his Down syndrome, a refusal to be stereotyped, and an infatuation with girls. Mix in an obsession of going to the prom, and a peer tutor who sees past the barriers of disability, and dreams really do come true. A love story twenty-four years in the making, Life With Charley is a powerful message of hope, faith, and discovery. The reader will laugh and cry while learning from the unlikeliest of sources that the key to happiness is not in trying to fit in, but in just being yourself.
