Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Toni V is a teenager working for the City Five demolition crew. While drilling through concrete he unearths a battered water can containing a parcel wrapped in faded brown paper. Though he`s supposed to turn over anything he salvages,Toni V smuggles the package back to his room, unwraps it, and finds a notebook. This is the diary of Pelly D. It`s totally secret, so if you`re reading it I hate you already. Toni V figures there`s no harm in paging through it since he doesn`t even know this Pelly D. I`m not being arrogant. That`s just the way it is at school. . . . I`m Pelly D. It`s pretty simple. I RULE! The more Toni V reads, the more he thinks Pelly D is rich, stupid, and petty. Yet he can`t help starting to care for her, especially as her words slowly reveal the chilling state of her world. I know it doesn`t matter what gene tag you have -- Mum`s made that clear again &, again like a stuck CD. It`s just . . . How can I… [detailed...]

Vaslav Nijinsky
The Diary of Vaslav Nijinsky

2006 y.
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
Description: Vaslav Nijinsky spent the final six weeks before his permanent consignment to an insane asylum as something a madman in the attic. With his family--wife, young daughters and occasionally, mother-in-law--and household staff downstairs, the legendary dancer retreated to his room in a remote Swiss villa to tangle with his burgeoning psychosis. Fearful that his wife would (as she ultimately did) commit him, and highly suspicious of the physician-cum-amateur psychiatrist who daily came by to examine him, Nijinsky perceived the diary as the only safe haven for the rambling thoughts that were overtaking him. Throughout, the anxiety and anguish are palpable, as Nijinsky writes about his disillusionment with his mentor and lover, Ballets Russes director Serge Diaghilev, his alienation from and distrust of his closest family members, and his fear of insanity and its consequential confinement. His writing becomes more obscure as the weeks progress and he examines his relationship to God, writing… [detailed...]

Henry James
The Diary of a Man of Fifty (Hesperus Classics)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Returning to Florence after 25 years of military service, a man finds himself haunted by memories of a thwarted love affair that took place on the banks of the Arno during his youth. On inquiring after the erstwhile object of his affections, he encounters a young man in amorous pursuit of her daughter. Eager to spare his young friend the sorrow that has marred his own life, the man finds himself deliberating the morality of recounting his own story. This heartbreaking tale touches on themes that were to dominate Henry James`s later fiction, including the suggestibility of youth and the dubious morality of influence. With characteristic psychological insight and a youthful fluency of expression, even in his early work James demonstrates himself a master of the art of fiction. [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionThis book illuminates two particularly fascinating aspects of Jewish history and culture in one definitive volume. Part one of The Diaspora and the Lost Tribes of Israel chronicles the vast historic migration of Jews throughout the world,starting in about 585 B.C. Exiled from their homeland or lured by the promise of safe havens, the Jews started the process of acculturation into their host countries while maintaining their Jewish identities. This story, illustrated with stunning archival and contemporary photographs and exquisite examples of ceremonial art, goes from the heights of Jewish educational, religious, and cultural enlightenment, to the almost unimaginable depths in which many of their communities suffered or perished. Part two explores the complex question of the lost tribes of Israel. Thought to have been lost to the sands of time, there is increasing evidence that vestiges of these ancient tribes continue to exist in some of the most remote and… [detailed...]

The Dictionary of Corporate Bullshit: An A to Z Lexicon of Empty, Enraging, and Just Plain Stupid Office Talk

Description: This caustically funny Webster’s of the workplace cuts to the true meaning of the inane argot spouted in cubicles and conference rooms across the land. At a price even an intern can afford and in a handy paperback format that won’t weigh down your messenger bag or briefcase, The Dictionary of Corporate Bullshit is a hilarious guide to the smoke-screen terms and passive-aggressive phrases we traffic in every day. Each entry begins with a straight definition followed by a series of alternative meanings that are, of course, what is really meant. Take, for example, the widely used, seemingly innocuous term brainstorming: 1. to generate ideas as a group in an accepting environment and in a free-form manner 2. a supposedly relaxed forum in which no idea is a bad idea – that is, until you generate a bad idea and are met with uncomfortable silence/looks that suggest you are retarded or really uncool/the feeling that you are about to be fired… [detailed...]

Every day, we are bombarded with dire warnings about America?s `obesity epidemic.` Close to half of the adult population is dieting, obsessed with achieving an arbitrary `ideal weight.` Yet studies show that a moderately active larger person is likely to be far healthier (and to live longer) than someone who is thin but sedentary. And contrary to what the fifty-billion-dollar-per-year weight-loss industry would have us believe, medical science has not yet come up with a way to make people thin. After years spent scrutinizing medical studies and interviewing leading doctors, scientists, eating- disorder specialists, and psychiatrists, Professor Paul Campos is here to lead the backlash against weight hysteria?and to show that we can safeguard our health without obsessing about the numbers on the scale.

Description: Amazon.com Tailored for 13- to 19-year-old girls (sorry, guys) The Diet for Teenagers Only dishes up a sensible balance of recipes, weight loss strategies, and straight talk about food. Writing partners Carrie Wiatt ( Eating by Design ) and Barbara Schroeder convey all the messages nutrition-wise moms want their daughters to hear--in an informed, best-friend voice their teens will actually listen to. Trust builds as readers discover `Things They Never Told You,` like how puberty naturally increases a girl?s body fat, diet soda promotes weight gain, and carbohydrates aren?t all bad. No mention of ideal weight spoils the fun, here, rather, Wiatt and Schroeder utilize an age-appropriate BMI (Body Mass Index) to help judge who?s truly overweight and who simply needs `a better body image reality check.` Doodled stars and hearts further enliven the book?s chummy tone, but never upstage the important stuff: food portion guides, nutrients for healthy… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionIn this deeply affecting, beautifully crafted collection of short fiction, Bret Lott broadens his stylistic range, striking a surprisingly surreal tone with stark, hyperrealistic prose. As story after dazzling story deliberately takes youdown a deceptively ordinary path, the arresting center of each startles your unsuspecting sensibility. Among the narrative gems is “Family,” in which a husband and wife bicker incessantly before realizing that their two children are missing, only to discover them in a surprising place–and in a disturbing condition. In “Everything Cut Will Come Back,” a long-distance phone call between two brothers takes a turn when their own tragic past crackles over the line. In “History,” a widow thinks she spots her son at the airport and is left instead with a simple memory of her late husband that resolves her grief.
