Book Description
All Is Not LOST is the sad, funny, self-effacing yet soul-bearing story of what happened when one woman set aside a lifelong dream in favor of her kids, only to find herself battling her own ego and unfulfilled ambition. This is the memoir of former working actress Shannon Kenny Carbonell, and her own bittersweet account of the journey she undertook to reconcile her growing feelings of failure and the sudden loss of her identity. Shannon—wife of actor Nestor Carbonell of LOST, Bates Motel, and The Morning Show fame— knew she was making the better choice for her, no matter how painful, when she decided on full-time motherhood over her career. But little did she know that shortly after her family moved to Oahu, Hawaii, while Nestor shot LOST, Shannon would find herself desperate to feed the part of her that was suddenly starved of creativity and accomplishment. Just like the LOST survivors, she had crashed on an island that would test her, heal her, and surround her with the people who would eventually show her the way home.

Author: Alex Zamalin Publisher: Beacon Press ISBN: 0807006084 Category : Political Science Languages : en Pages : 178
Book Description
An uplifting look at how organizers in the past have successfully leveraged crises into emancipatory politics, and a plea for continued progressive movement building in our tumultuous social climate From the climate apocalypse and COVID-19 to double-digit unemployment to Donald Trump and the rise of far-right white nationalists—disasters are everywhere we look. While these disasters often leave us feeling hopeless and withdrawn, scholar Alex Zamalin argues that pessimism cannot be the only response. Silence and inaction only perpetuate mass suffering and inequality. Instead, All Is Not Lost suggests that following every crisis emerges new political opportunity for changing our politics and everyday lives. Blending intellectual history, biography, and political critique, Zamalin offers 20 specific lessons for our present moment, turning to moments in history to demonstrate how various figures in the past have successfully leveraged struggles into sources of political action and freedom. The lessons—on how to resist, organize, treat others, think politically, memorialize, dream, write, occupy, build, and act—all build toward one truth: though disaster is something we cannot prevent from arriving, we can control how we confront it and what we build in its place. Using examples from the 17th century to the present, All Is Not Lost reminds readers to not back down in the face of crisis and offers radical lessons of continued resistance and movement building to create a successful progressive coalition.
Author: IRENE BESSETTE Publisher: Xlibris Corporation ISBN: 1453547851 Category : Body, Mind & Spirit Languages : en Pages : 332
Book Description
IRENA BESSETTE (BAKOWSKA), was born as Irene Borman in 1924 to two Jewish dentists in the heart of the Jewish section of Warsaw. She was two years younger than her older sister who also survived the war and the Holocaust with her, as told in Not All Was Lost: A Young Woman’s Memoir, 1939-1946. Irene now lives in Portland as does her son whose birth under German occupation is also part of this story. When the Germans invaded Poland in 1939, Irene was just 15 and her sister Karolina was 17. In this story we follow a fifteen-year-old Jewish girl and how she survived and lived, matured and became a woman through the tragic years of World War II and the Nazi Occupation. Millions of people perished, millions were wounded, and countless property was destroyed. Yet the author affirms that not all was lost. How was it possible? To answer this question, the reader is taken on a journey through that time to Warsaw, bombed mercilessly for twenty-six days. After the Occupation began, the reader observes the daily life of the Jewish people under Nazi rule. How did they behave? How would the reader behave under such circumstances? Was it possible to remain sane while imprisoned in the Warsaw Ghetto? Was it possible to escape? Readers will meet some Christian Poles who did help, and will be touched by the hardship of those slaving on German farms in Lorraine where Irena and her sister hid and labored. It was a cruel time, a time of agony, a time of tears, a time of pain. It was a time of heroic courage, a time of enormous endurance, a time of faith. Irene’s liberation by the American army in Lorraine leads her back to Poland, where she finds her parents still alive. Ultimately on in her post war journey, away from Poland, to France to Morocco, educated as a lawyer in France, and as a librarian and lawyer in the United States and eventuality to Canada, where at Queens University in Kingston Ontario, her bi-lingual and bi-legal education proved to be a desired asset . She was admitted to the New York State Bar in 1966, to practice before the United States Supreme Court in 1970, and to the Law Society of Upper Canada (Ontario Bar) in 1985. She spent the last two decades of her professional career as a Professor of Law and Law Librarian at Queen’s University, Faculty of Law, in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, married to Gerard Bessette, a well known and much prized French-Canadian writer and teacher. In honoring her service, this is what Queens University said about her, Madame Irene (Bakowska) Bessette. A courageous survivor of terrible persecution during World War II; a published author of moving, astonishingly generous and enlightened works on her WW II tribulation; a legal scholar of a wide-world experience in Europe, Africa and North America; a patient, dedicated and wise conservator of her adopted country Canada’s legal literature; the first woman teacher at this Faculty of Law; a teacher of and guide to both of Canada’s founding legal traditions; an insightful life partner and strength to her husband Gérard Bessette a Canadian literary treasure. And life continues. Not all was lost. Her book is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and can be ordered at your local book store - see www.irenebessette.com.
Author: Elliot Erwitt Publisher: Gost Books ISBN: 9781910401316 Category : Photography Languages : en Pages : 242
Book Description
This book has been an opportunity for Erwitt to revisit the photographs he made in his early career and to uncover meaning upon second glance which was not apparent when the image was originally taken. The master of visual one-liners--bold statement images replete with humour, irony and acknowledged absurdity--the photographs selected for this book are quieter, more subtle and suggest Erwitt's increasing confidence in his own eye. By selecting these photographs he has begun to both examine and challenge how his younger self saw the world.

Author: Traci Rhoades Publisher: Church Publishing, Inc. ISBN: 1640652809 Category : Religion Languages : en Pages : 153
Book Description
A delightfully-written exploration of faith for those who are searching and for those who are settled What if we stopped trying to find the perfect church in the right Christian tradition and intentionally explored our faith with all our Christian brothers and sisters? Can Christians embrace God fully by exploring other faith traditions? In Not All Who Wander, we discover that we do indeed find Jesus in a church, and traces of him in our everyday lives as well. Not All Who Wander walks readers through the author’s faith journey, and how her experience with churches in a number of traditions has left her longing for more of Jesus than any one church offers. It also presents stories from other believers to give readers a sense of how alike, and different, our spiritual experiences can be. Rhoades has developed a passion for discovering all the ways we worship Jesus and invites readers to join her. With utter delight, she’s discovered no matter which traditions she worships with, Jesus meets her there.
