Download or read book Blood Makes the Grass Grow Green written by Johnny Rico and published by Presidio Press. This book was released on 2008-12-24 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outrageous, hilarious, and absolutely candid, Blood Makes the Grass Grow Green is Johnny Rico’s firsthand account of fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan, a memoir that also reveals the universal truths about the madness of war. No one would have picked Johnny Rico for a soldier. The son of an aging hippie father, Johnny was overeducated and hostile to all authority. But when 9/11 happened, the twenty-six-year-old probation officer dropped everything to become an “infantry combat killer.” But if he’d thought that serving his country would be the kind of authentic experience a reader of The Catcher in the Rye would love, he quickly realized he had another thing coming. In Afghanistan he found himself living a Lord of the Flies existence among soldiers who feared civilian life more than they feared the Taliban–guys like Private Cox, a musical prodigy busy “planning his future poverty,” and Private Mulbeck, who didn’t know precisely which country he was in. Life in a combat zone meant carnage and courage–but it also meant tedious hours standing guard, punctuated with thoughtful arguments about whether Bea Arthur was still alive. Utterly uncensored and full of dark wit, Blood Makes the Grass Grow Green is a poignant, frightening, and heartfelt view of life in this and every man’s army.

Book excerpt: Becky always believed that when trials came, faith kicked in and you were able to soar above the events. But when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and then uterine cancer two months later-that did not happen. Faced with multiple surgeries and chemotherapy and radiation treatments, she found herself questioning God, struggling with the possibility of death, and secretly wondering if she had done something to make God mad. Becky's brother John, a psychotherapist from Detroit, reconnected with her and began an e-mail campaign of support and encouragement. "Green Grass in the Junkyard" documents this correspondence. It is a powerful book that will help you enjoy each day, even when you feel that life is not going the way that you had hoped. "With absolute honesty, Becky and John have laid-bare their hearts during a truly challenging time of their lives. Their journey through doubt, despair, hope, and faith serve as tremendous encouragement to those on a similar path-both cancer patients, and those who love them." - Christina S. Chu, M.D., Jordan Center for Gynecologic Cancer, University of Pennsylvania "Drs. Overholt and Canine have brought a great perspective, and a new one, to the complex subject of learning to live with, enduring, and then mastering the troubled times that the diagnosis of cancer can bring into the lives of patients and families.The undeniable value of faith, will, introspection, and most importantly, a loving sibling, is expressed masterfully in this book. We all have so much to learn; there is treasure here for those for whom illness has provoked a new quest for knowledge and peace." - Kevin R. Fox, M.D., MacDonald Professor of Medicine, Abramson Cancer Center, University of Pennsylvania
Download or read book Green green grass written by Anja Nicole Stuckenberger and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-03-11 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface Working on an interpretation of the story of The Feeding of the Five Thousand in Marks gospel, I penciled down some ideas. When I reached the words green grass, I put my pencil down and leaned back. A gentle breeze blew away task and desk. The fresh meadow scent of an early summer eve caressed my nose and a friendly voice said, Come, sit down and eat with us. Before me, a small group of people picnicked on a blanket in lush grass, serving one another crispy bread and fried fish, peaches and all kinds of other delicacies. We all ate heartily and there was so much leftover that it would not fit into the original picnic basket! How could this be? I laid down on the blanket, blinked into the blue sky, and listened to happy childrens voices. I still wonder, so I wrote it all down for you. I hope that youll enjoy my poem and Ekaterinas drawings, whether you are wide awake leafing through the book or sleepily snuggled in your blanket traveling into the land of dreams. May summer be full of sweet and juicy peaches for you. Vorwort Ich arbeitete an einer Auslegung der Geschichte Die Speisung der Fünftausend im Markus-Evangelium und machte mir ein paar Notizen. Als ich zu den Worten grünes Gras gelangte, legte ich den Stift beiseite und lehnte mich zurück. Eine leichte Brise wehte Arbeit und Tisch davon. Der frische Wiesenduft eines frühen Sommerabends umschmeichelte meine Nase und eine freundliche Stimme sagte, Setz dich doch her und iss mit uns.Vor mir saß eine kleine Picknickgesellschaft auf einer Decke im saftigen Gras. Die Leute reichten einander knuspriges Brot, dazu gebratenen Fisch, Pfirsiche und allerlei andere Köstlichkeiten. Wir aßen alle ausgiebig und es blieb so viel übrig, dass nicht mehr alles in den Picknickkorb passte! Wie war das möglich? Ich legte mich ins Gras, blinzelte in den blauen Himmel und lauschte fröhlichen Kinderstimmen. Ich wundere mich noch immer und habe alles für euch aufgeschrieben. Ich hoffe, mein Gedicht und Ekaterinas Bilder gefallen euch, ob ihr nun ganz munter im Buch blättert oder müde in eine Decke gekuschelt ins Land der Träume reist. Möge für euch der Sommer stets voll saftig-süßer Pfirsiche sein.

Book excerpt: 'A woven time-travelling book, about love, land, life ... Short stories that link together like trees in a forest' Jackie Morris On a clear Kentucky night in 1888, a young woman risks her life to save a stranger from a drunken mob. Almost a hundred years later, her great-grandson Andy climbs a hill at the edge of town, and is flooded with memories of all he has lived, seen and heard of the past century - of farmers wooing schoolteachers and soldiers trudging home from war; of the first motor car, the Great Depression and Vietnam; of neighbourly feuds and family secrets; of grief and betrayal - and of great friendship that endures for a lifetime. These are Wendell Berry's tales of Port William, a little farming community nestled deep in the Kentucky River valley. They unravel the story of a town over the course of four generations, lovingly chronicling the intertwined lives of the families who call it home. Affectionate, elegiac and wry, these uplifting rural fables invite us to witness the beauty and quiet heroism at the heart of each ordinary, interconnected life.
