Download or read book The Condition written by Jennifer Haigh and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1976, during their annual retreat on Cape Cod, the McKotch family came apart. Now, twenty years after daughter Gwen was diagnosed with Turner's syndrome—a rare genetic condition that keeps her trapped forever in the body of a child—eminent scientist Frank McKotch is divorced from his pedigreed wife, Paulette. Eldest son Billy, a successful cardiologist, lives a life built on secrets and compromise. His brother Scott awakened from a pot-addled adolescence to a soul-killing job and a regrettable marriage. And Gwen—bright and accomplished but hermetic and emotionally aloof—spurns all social interaction until, well into her thirties, she falls in love for the first time. With compassion and almost painful astuteness, The Condition explores the power of family mythologies—the self-delusions, denials, and inescapable truths that forever bind fathers and mothers and siblings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature is not all about a play of a language, or a kind of linguistic game. The written pages are not only a representation of the black and the white; the verbal and the visual, but also much more. A writer somehow does not only write a book. He or she – most importantly – lives a book. The text itself does not only represent the condition of language – rather, it does represent the condition of one's own self.
Download or read book On The Condition of Anonymity written by Matt Carlson and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matt Carlson confronts the promise and perils of unnamed sources in this exhaustive analysis of controversial episodes in American journalism during the George W. Bush administration, from prewar reporting mistakes at the New York Times and Washington Post to the Valerie Plame leak case and Dan Rather's lawsuit against CBS News. Weaving a narrative thread that stretches from the uncritical post-9/11 era to the spectacle of the Scooter Libby trial, Carlson examines a tense period in American history through the lens of journalism. Revealing new insights about high-profile cases involving confidential sources, he highlights contextual and structural features of the era, including pressure from the right, scrutiny from new media and citizen journalists, and the struggles of traditional media to survive amid increased competition and decreased resources.
