Book Description
I remember, Youth. I once firmly grasp your passion for life.I ran with your endless energy, flying over hill and dale, the wind straining to catch up and warm sunlight on my face.At night the stars were within my grasp and love surrounded my every move.Your strength pushed me to higher levels, free from pain, fatigue or future cares.Suddenly, somewhere along the joy-filled way of life I stopped to sleep. When I awakened you were gone.I searched for you but found you left me behind. In the accompaniment of a new lover you deserted me.I cry out for your return but to no avail.Now, I find solace in memories and sit a lonely traveler in a grim world filled with challenges I no longer care to take.My dreams are of youth and its thrills.But there is hope for my spirit is still young. In my mind I still run, love, conquer difficulties. I watch you now, in the laughter and song of my children and grandchildren.I find that you never left after all. You are endless.

Book Description
Bill Haywood, an English, working-class, Black Country lad, saw only a lifetime of factory drudgery as his fate when he was young. He left school at fifteen without any academic qualifications and entered the workforce with various engineering companies. For five years, he served in the Royal Air Force in the United Kingdom, Cyprus, and Malta. After his service, he was hired on at one of the largest engineering companies in the UK-Guest, Keen and Nettlefolds. At the age of thirty-six, while still working at GKN, he threw caution to the winds to attend Ruskin College, Oxford, to pursue a dream. At the age of thirty-nine, he earned the first of three university degrees, culminating in a doctorate at the age of forty-five. In this memoir, he expresses strong views that may challenge those who are unwilling to debate the issues, including the environment for education and the social situation in the UK, the apparent goals of the current government, and sport and sportsmanship. He has traveled the world and befriended interesting and stimulating people from places he never thought he would see with his own eyes. His is a journey of discovery, proof that life holds great potential for those who are willing to look beyond their immediate environment or circumstances. He hopes to encourage others to seek something beyond their current factory, office, or shop door, where a more satisfying future may await.

Book Description
David Guffey woke up to the sound of his alarm ringing loudly. He reached over to turn it off but was suddenly hit by a sharp pain in his stomach. He groaned and curled up into a ball, clutching his stomach tightly. The pain was so intense that he felt like he was being tortured. He tried to take deep breaths to calm himself down, but it only made things worse. Sweat began to pour down his face and his entire body was trembling with pain. He closed his eyes tightly and tried to ride it out, but the pain only grew worse. After what felt like hours, David finally lost consciousness. He couldn't remember anything that happened after that, but when he woke up, he felt weak and disoriented. He struggled to sit up, feeling as if his entire body had been drained of all energy. He noticed the tea table in front of him, with a spilled cup of water and a few empty pill bottles. He couldn't remember taking any medication, but he knew that he needed something to ease the pain. He tried to reach for the pills, but his hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't even hold them. He managed to grab a glass of water and slowly sipped it, feeling slightly better with each gulp. He knew that he needed to rest and regain his strength, but he also knew that he couldn't ignore this pain any longer. He needed to seek medical attention as soon as possible. David slowly got up, using the table to steady himself. He knew that he had a long road ahead of him, but he also knew that he had to fight. He took a deep breath and slowly made his way out of the room, determined to get the help he needed to overcome this pain.

Book Description
This book is not an intellectual book. Nor is it thought provoking. It is meant to be a hoot. It has no plot, no love story, no crime, no conspiracy. It is stark in its simplicity. In as much as I mean for it to transport the readers like a time machine, back into the fifties and sixties, I hope it will also help to prove the theory that a Malayalee can be found anywhere on Earth, even on the edges of the forests of a little-known place called Perlis in Malaya. This book is about the everyday affairs in the mundane life of an ordinary person, narrated in an ordinary way. The subtle humour I’ve tried to weave into every situation should bring a smile to your face; otherwise, my purpose is lost. As you turn the pages, you’re bound to find that however modest you thought life might be, there are pitfalls and traps strewn your way. If you can bring all these elements together, season it with some entertainment and wit, for it is that final component that sets apart the ordinary from the fascinating, then, my darlings, consider yourselves lucky, for you’ve lived a brilliant life. This book is testimony to that.

Book Description
Real life is a series of ups and downs; for some the downs seem far more frequent and ominous than the ups. The key to a peaceful, contented life is to find a balance between accepting reality as it is and creating our own reality as we dream it. It takes determination and work, but real life is what it is, a combination of good and bad, happy and sad. What is smooth sailing one day may end up stranded on the rocks the next. But whatever happens, always seek to add your own personal twist to make it your life and no one elses. Real Life, On the Rocks With a Twist! is an eclectic collection of real-life experiences told in a style reminiscent of Erma Bombeck. Read about a bear attempting to open a dumpster while standing on the lid, something we all tend to do in our own lives.

Warmth and humor guide the reader through the struggles and challenges of family, friendship, career, and personal loss for a young woman making her way through life on her own. Issues of love and self-esteem are presented with refreshingly subtle irony. Written with keen insight and lighthearted wit, Real Life, On the Rocks With a Twist! is a toast to humanity and a celebration of the human spirit.

Book Description
An “emotion-filled story of family dynamics and self-discovery . . . brimming with interesting characters” from the bestselling author of The Liverpool Trilogy (Booklist). The members of the eccentric Compton-Milnes household act more like strangers than family. Despite having multiple sclerosis, the elder matriarch, Hermione, controls the household and insists on a Tuesday morning family breakfast. Her son, Gus, a reclusive but brilliant professor, and daughter-in-law Lisa, a foolishly promiscuous cosmetic surgery addict, remain married, but without much of a relationship. Their two grown children, Ben and Harriet, are also under the same roof, yet miles apart from the rest of the family. Ben’s OCD keeps him from facing the world, while his sister Harriet sacrifices her own desires in order to take care of him. Lisa’s series of poorly chosen affairs finally catches up to her when she accidentally becomes friends with her latest lover’s wife. When he turns on her, the family is forced to pull together for the very first time if they are to survive with any degree of sanity.
