Download or read book Loved and Missed written by Susie Boyt and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ruth is a woman who believes in and despairs of the curative power of love. Her daughter, Eleanor, who is addicted to drugs, has just had a baby, Lily. Ruth adjusts herself in ways large and small to give to Eleanor what she thinks she may need—nourishment, distance, affection—but all her gifts fall short. After someone dies of an overdoes in Eleanor's apartment, Ruth hands her daughter an envelope of cash and takes Lily home with her, and Lily, as she grows, proves a compensation for all of Ruth's past defeats and disappointment. Love without fear is a new feeling for her, almost unrecognizable. Will it last? Love and Missed is a whip-smart, incisive, and mordantly witty novel about love's gains and missteps. British writer Susie Boyt's seventh novel, and the first to be published in the United States, is a triumph.
Download or read book Silas Burroughs the Man who Made Wellcome written by Julia Sheppard and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2022-05-26 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Silas Burroughs arrived in London from America in 1878 and proved himself an exceptional entrepreneur, taking the pharmaceutical business by storm. He was the brains and energy behind Burroughs Wellcome & Co. With his business partner Henry Wellcome he created an internationally successful firm, the legacy of which can be found in the charity the Wellcome Trust, yet few now remember him and the impact he made in his short lifetime. A consummate salesman, Burroughs was also an astute businessman, with new ideas for marketing, advertising and manufacturing: his writings describe sales trips around the world and the people he met. He was also a visionary employer who supported the eight-hour working day, profit-sharing, and numerous social and radical political movements, including the single tax movement, free travel, Irish Home Rule and world peace. In this first biography of Burroughs, Julia Sheppard explores his American origins, his religion and marriage, and his philanthropic work, as well as re-evaluating the dramatic deterioration of his relationship with his partner Wellcome."

Book excerpt: A California billionaire has bequeathed all of his assets to his only daughter Constance - except the 22-million-dollar yacht he wanted Josephine to have, a 25 million-dollar art collection left to Rene and some priceless antique automobiles willed to Marjorie. Constance arrives at her father's mansion with her lawyer, determined to find out who these women are and to buy them off or contest the will. The butler seems to hold the key and she learns from him that the three sultry ladies were her father's lovers. She also discovers that the yacht, the art and the cars have vanished, all having been sold to The Bimbo Corporation. Could the butler be behind the shenanigans - and is he carrying on with all of the ladies in question? Does the elderly, deaf housekeeper really have a pet rat? Can the bumbling detective hired by Constance really be so inept, linguistically as well as professionally? And why has the butler hired an actress to play his wife? Hilarity erupts long before the audience realizes that the temptresses are all being played by the same actress! This is a madcap addition to the author's string of inventive American farces.

Download or read book Hands on the Railing written by Dr. Robert Emerson Sylvester and published by Abbott Press. This book was released on 2014-07-02 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reverend W.O. Stone was a force to contend with. When he and his family moved to Bemis, a small mill town south of Jackson, Tennessee, they knew that they were entering a community divided by history, by hatred, by race, and by stubborn Southern tradition. But Reverend Stone?a man of great and profound faith?reached out, risked everything, and did his part to forge a brighter future for his community by confronting the harsh realities of racism and segregation. There, Reverend Stone and his wife raised five children amid dark and dangerous times in American history. As told through the eyes and memory of his middle child, Virginia, Hands on the Railing provides an intimate and personal glimpse into the lives of this brave and forward-thinking man and the people he loved, worked with, and prayed for. He survived the ugliest moments of a time when violence ruled the day, including the burning of a church, attacks on his dignity and person, and many unkind words along the way. Disillusioned by the seedy side of Southern pride and ignorance, his faith was sorely tested. But through experience and by the power of faith on bended knee, the good reverend struggled to find the strength, courage, and wisdom to confront the many demons in his life, both within and without. Through it all, W.O. was a spellbinding preacher, a loving husband, and a good father, a man who made his mark in the world with dignity, faith, and honor.
