Download or read book Coconut written by Manuel Padilla Jr. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-11-08 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lives of a Mexican-American family living in Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley during the turbulent 1960’s and 1970’s are the focus of Coconut: Brown on the Outside, White on the Inside. Despite living a middle class life, “The Rodrigos” have to endure terms like “wetback” and “beaner”– even though they don’t speak Spanish. To top it off, their daughter is a Chicano rights activist who is mixing with the wrong group of militants; their sister-in-law suffers at the hands of an abusive husband; and their precocious son is gifted and headed for the Ivy League, only his parents don’t have a clue what “gifted” means and are afraid of him deserting “la familia.” Sure, he could be one of the 8% of Latinos to graduate from college during that time – if racism, marginalization and his parents don’t extinguish his dream first. “Coconut” takes us back to a time when everything was “groovy,” and bell bottoms, brown power and disco collided with Civil Rights, earthquakes and the quest to be accepted as an American. If you’ve ever been called a “coconut,” “banana” or “Oreo,” this novel will leave you laughing, crying and better understanding what racism and life were like for people of color then – and why we are who we are today.

Book excerpt: Twenty-five years ago, Herb Kelleher reinvented air travel when he founded Southwest Airlines, where the planes are painted like killer whales, a typical company maxim is "Hire people with a sense of humor," and in-flight meals are never served--just sixty million bags of peanuts a year. By sidestepping "reengineering," "total quality management," and other management philosophies and employing its own brand of business success, Kelleher's airline has turned a profit for twenty-four consecutive years and seen its stock soar 300 percent since 1990. Today, Southwest is the safest airline in the world and ranks number one in the industry for service, on-time performance, and lowest employee turnover rate; and Fortune magazine has twice ranked Southwest one of the ten best companies to work for in America. How do they do it? With unlimited access to the people and inside documents of Southwest Airlines, authors Kevin and Jackie Freiberg share the secrets behind the greatest success story in commercial aviation. Read it and discover how to transfer the Southwest inspiration to your own business and personal life.

Download or read book Seasick written by Gloria Nagy and published by Jorge Pinto Books Inc.. This book was released on 2009-03 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using her signature style of diamond sharp social satire, page-turning action and plot, humor and pathos, Gloria Nagy has written a true tour de force of a novel, set on the perfect metaphorical site; the most lavish cruise ship in the world; a symbol of a world gone mad with excess. The ship, gliding serenely, reveals nothing of the turmoil within and its human cargo, mirroring the deception. Nothing and no one on the Palace of the Dolphins is what it seems, and none of them will return (those who do) unchanged. Gloria Nagy is the author of nine previous books including the N.Y. Times best-seller, A House in the Hamptons. She lives with her husband Richard Saul Wurman in Newport, R.I. They have four children, six grandchildren and three yellow labs, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who do not cruise.C Previous praise for Gloria Nagy "Hip, Hilarious, Heartbreaking" Cosmopolitan "Fabulous entertainment...an essential summer read" Kirkus Reviews" A stunning accomplishment... funny and sad, erotic and ultimately very moving" Gael Greene, New York Magazine "Nagy's style is fresh, her pace brisk and her humor delightful." Los Angeles Times "Sensitive, humorous and compassionate" Elie Weisel, Nobel Laureate
