"Thank you for the perfect blend of nostalgia-drenched humor, wit, and heartbreak, Nora." -- Mandy Moore

comedy = tragedy + time/ros

Twenty-seven-year-old Nora McInerny Purmort bounced from boyfriend to dopey "boyfriend" until she met Aaron--a charismatic art director and comic-book nerd who once made Nora laugh so hard she pulled a muscle. When Aaron was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer, they refused to let it limit their love. They got engaged on Aaron's hospital bed and had a baby boy while he was on chemo. In the period that followed, Nora and Aaron packed fifty years of marriage into the three they got, spending their time on what really matters: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, each other, and Beyonc . A few months later, Aaron died in Nora's arms. The obituary they wrote during Aaron's hospice care revealing his true identity as Spider-Man touched the nation. With It's Okay to Laugh, Nora puts a young, fresh twist on the subjects of mortality and resilience. What does it actually mean to live your "one wild and precious life" to the fullest? How can a joyful marriage contain more sickness than health? How do you keep going when life kicks you in the junk? In this deeply felt and deeply funny memoir, Nora gives her readers a true gift--permission to struggle, permission to laugh, permission to tell the truth and know that everything will be okay. It's Okay to Laugh is a love letter to life, in all its messy glory; it reads like a conversation with a close friend, and leaves a trail of glitter in its wake.

This book is for people who have been through some shit.

This is for people who aren't sure if they're saying or doing the right thing (you're not, but nobody is). This is for people who had their life turned upside down and just learned to live that way. For people who have laughed at a funeral or cried in a grocery store. This is for everyone who wondered what exactly they're supposed to be doing with their one wild and precious life. I don't actually have the answer, but if you find out, will you text me?

Описание: BOND HUNTER A Taut International Thriller - A young lawyer is plunged into danger when she discovers Hitler's link to Wall Street It is October 1994, four years after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Stunned by the mysterious death of her grandfather and law partner, new attorney Kenna Rand is approached to take over his efforts to redeem a portfolio of German bearer bonds issued during Hitler's rise to power. The bonds, in default since the Nazi regime, are payable in gold. Germany has agreed to review the claim, provided the bonds are delivered to Switzerland's settlements bank within two weeks. With the newly created EU in its infancy, Kenna's demand could plunge the German economy and global markets into chaos. Billions of dollars are at stake as Kenna races across continents to reach Basel before time runs out. Powerful interests coalesce to stop her, including her own government. Kenna finds herself pursued by "Countess," a cold-blooded fortune hunter operating under the guise of royalty, and Klaus Kessel, a ruthless international agent acting for the FBi. By its heart-pounding finish, Kenna uncovers chilling truths about Germany's war on Europe - and America's role in financing it. BOND HUNTER is based upon facts concerning Germany's dark alliance with Wall Street in the years leading up to WW II. The author is a former finance attorney, whose probe into the history of the German gold bonds led to BOND HUNTER. "BOND HUNTER is a riveting tale of deception and betrayal . . .fast, tense and gripping." Jeffrey Weston, author of "German Financial Time Bomb."

Описание: The Very Rich Hours of Jacques Maritain is distinguished philosopher Ralph McInerny’s hymn of praise to the spiritual and intellectual life of the great Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain (1881–1973). The structure of this work is modeled on the medieval book of hours, making use of the daily offices, from Matins through Compline, to examine each stage of the life of Maritain and his wife, Ra?ssa. Through this unique blending of biography and meditation, McInerny creates a powerful portrait of the Maritains, one that reveals a model of the intellectual life as lived by Christian believers. McInerny’s authoritative work provides an interesting and accessible avenue of entry to Maritain’s life and thought. Among the topics McInerny covers are Maritain’s remarkable and diverse set of friends, his involvement in French politics, and the development of his views on the nature and future of democracy, the church, and Catholic intellectual life. By skillfully interweaving Maritain’s philosophy with anecdotes from his life, McInerny demonstrates what distinguished Maritain as a Catholic philosopher and why he is a source of inspiration for McInerny and others of his generation.
