New Ways to Kill Your Mother
Author: Colm Toibin
Publisher: Emblem Editions
ISBN: 0771084420
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
In this fascinating, informative, and entertaining collection, internationally acclaimed, award-winning author Colm Tóibín turns his attention to the intricacies of family relationships in literature and writing. In pieces that range from the importance of aunts (and the death of parents) in the English nineteenth-century novel to the relationship between fathers and sons in the writing of James Baldwin and Barack Obama, Colm Tóibín illuminates not only the intimate connections between writers and their families but also, with wit and rare tenderness, articulates the great joy of reading their work. In the piece on the Notebooks of Tennessee Williams, Tóibín reveals an artist "alone and deeply fearful and unusually selfish" and one profoundly tormented by his sister's mental illness. Through the relationship between W.B. Yeats and his father, or Thomas Mann and his children, or J.M. Synge and his mother, Tóibín examines a world of family relations, richly comic or savage in its implications. In Roddy Doyle's writing on his parents we see an Ireland reinvented. From the dreams and nightmares of John Cheever's journals Tóibín makes flesh this darkly comic misanthrope and his relationship to his wife and his children.The majority of these pieces were previously published in the Londron Review of Books, the New York Review Review of Books, and the Dublin Review. Three of the thirteen pieces have never appeared before.

Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
“Devouring this bold, brilliant satire was refreshing and confronting and completely entertaining.” —Ashley Audrain, New York Times bestselling author of The Push Long-standing tensions between a husband, his wife, and her best friend finally come to a breaking point in this sharp domestic comedy of manners, told brilliantly over the course of one day. What if the two most important people in your life hated each other with a passion? The wife has it all. A big house in a nice neighbourhood, a ride-or-die snarky friend with whom to laugh about facile men, and an affectionate husband who loves her above all else. The only thing missing from this portrait is a baby. But motherhood is a serious undertaking, especially for the wife who has valued her selfhood above all else. On a seemingly normal day, the best friend comes over to spend a lazy afternoon with the wife. But when the husband comes home and a series of confessions are made that threaten to throw everything off balance, the wife's two confidantes are suddenly forced to jockey for their positions. Told in three taut, mesmerizing parts—the wife, the husband, the best friend—the day quickly unfolds to show how the trio's dented visions of each other finally unravel, throwing everyone’s integrity into question—and their long-drawn-out territorial dance, carefully constructed over pivotal years, into utter chaos. At once subversively comical, wildly astute, and painfully compulsive, The Three of Us explores cultural truths, what it means to defy them, and the fine line between compromise and betrayal, ultimately asking: Who are we if not for the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, and the people we’re meant to love?

My Obsession 4 God

Pages : 230
Book Description
Since the beginning a divine obsession came forth bringing something from nothingness, which evolved for hundreds of billions and trillions of light years away. So far that the distance is unreachable. Only through a compulsion shorter then a forth of a instant, out the midst grew an arousing feeling, And The once stillness began a frenzy of movement which produced an orgasm that released the sperms of time and space, which untwined faster than the speed of light into four never-ending directions. By a compulsion I was obsessed with a peculiar ability taking me in a different realm in which God makes himself known to me and brings me into his fold forever. As I grew into maturity my life was becoming much more aware of good and evil. And at the time I was becoming steadfastly enlightened with a spiritually enhanced compulsive desire to get ever so close with God by him manifesting himself in me and anointing my life with the power of four, and giving me a new name called Chesed, which would give me power, dominion and authority over the principalities of darkness. And walking in the light For The glory of God defending good against evil.

Around the Way Girls 10
Author: Ms. Michel Moore
Publisher: Urban Books
ISBN: 1622868927
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
There’s a saying that if you come from my part of town, you're from around the way. Around the Way Girls 10, like its predecessors, is a fast-paced look at the lives of some street-smart women who think they know it all, but are about to get the lessons of their lives. “What doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger.” For Katara, that statement is the furthest thing from the truth. Dealing with her mother’s cancer, a special needs child, and a physically abusive husband that cheats on her at will, she is slowly losing her mind. Finally fed up with the tortured life she feels forced to live, Katara attempts suicide. What she thought would be an easy escape from reality soon turns out to be a fate she wouldn’t wish on her worst enemy. Shay isn’t for the games when it comes to self-preservation. Being abused by her stepfather since the age of ten, the teen has finally had enough. Her mother chooses not to listen to her pleas for help, which becomes a deadly mistake. Shay is soon arrested for manslaughter and sent away until her twenty-first birthday. Once she’s released back on the streets of Detroit, Shay is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode, as she vows to never let anything or anyone hurt her again. Ajanay Holmes, Sheika Jones, and London Smith were born and raised in Whitcomb Courts, one of Richmond, Virginia’s most ruthless housing projects. Faced with horrific home lives, all three girls turn to the streets and each other for comfort. Ajanay concocts a plan for them to use their voluptuous bodies and their sharp mouths to get money out of Amir, one of the biggest dope boys from a rival housing project. However, Amir is a stone-cold killer with a long criminal history, and she has put them in harm’s way with no solid plan on how to escape. Will their love and loyalty for one another keep them together, or is it every woman for herself?
