Book Yes  Granddaughter  YOU CAN

Download or read book Yes Granddaughter YOU CAN written by Joyce M. Wrenn and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yes, Granddaughter, YOU CAN by Joyce M. Wrenn Joyce M. Wrenn’s Yes, Granddaughter, YOU CAN is the inspiring memoir of a woman whose career should be a source of encouragement for our youth, young women and young men alike. She succeeded in breaking through the “glass ceiling” before others even knew there was a crack. The definition of “glass ceiling” is: “The unseen, yet unbreachable barrier that keeps minorities and women from rising to the upper rungs of the corporate ladder, regardless of their qualifications or achievements.” This term first surfaced in the mid-1980s. With immigrant grandparents, Wrenn’s father stressed the importance of education. In college, she chose studies like math and physics over the “liberal arts” many girls studied. Even though she married young, she continued her education and graduated, accepting her first job as a computer programmer for Bendix in 1959. Over the years, Wrenn’s career progressed as she moved back and forth across the country, working for such companies as IBM, Bank of America, American Airlines, Union Pacific RR—each move a step up the ladder—retiring as CIO in 1999. Wrenn hopes her story will help young people, especially women, in their quest to climb the corporate ladder in their own careers.

Book The Ten Thousand Things

    Book Details:
  • Author : Maria Dermout
  • Publisher : New York Review of Books
  • Release : 2014-11-25
  • ISBN : 1590178823
  • Pages : 216 pages

Download or read book The Ten Thousand Things written by Maria Dermout and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2014-11-25 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set between Holland and a remote Indonesian island, this intimate magical realism novel offers “an offbeat narrative that has the timeless tone of a legend” (Time). “Dermoût’s sentences came at me like a soft knowing dagger, depicting a far-off land that felt to me like the blood of all the places I used to love.” —Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild The Ten Thousand Things is at once novel of shimmering strangeness—and familiarity. It is the story of Felicia, who returns with her baby son from Holland to the Spice Islands of Indonesia, to the house and garden that were her birthplace, over which her powerful grandmother still presides. There Felicia finds herself wedded to an uncanny and dangerous world, full of mystery and violence, where objects tell tales, the dead come and go, and the past is as potent as the present. First published in Holland in 1955, Maria Dermoût's novel was immediately recognized as a magical work, like nothing else Dutch—or European—literature had seen before. The Ten Thousand Things is an entranced vision of a far-off place that is as convincingly real and intimate as it is exotic, a book that is at once a lament and an ecstatic ode to nature and life.
