A Memoir of Seven Years in India and Nepal

First Place Award Writers Digest, Gold Medal Award Independent Publishers

What happened to Brother Jim in India and Nepal? Why would someone, after nearly thirty years as a Catholic Brother, leave behind his chosen religious family, the Church, and Christianity itself?

After years as a math instructor in the American Midwest, Brother Jim and three companions are sent to India to establish a branch of their religious order there. Struggling with challenges from an uncooperative government, inept local bishops, and the vagaries of a complex culture, Brother Jim nevertheless discovers both the charm of the Indian subcontinent and what is important to his soul.

Walk the backstreets of Delhi and Kathmandu and the hallways of a religious house in this most unusual memoir set in the 80s.

From reader reviews:

Riveting Light humor and deep wisdom A poignant and often amusing true adventure story Could not put it down A gifted storyteller A cinema-like realism Explodes with the tastes, sounds, smells of India A coming of age story for any age and any soul

Описание:

The definitive biography of Frank O Hara, one of the greatest American poets of the twentieth century, the magnetic literary figure at the center of New York s cultural life during the 1950s and 1960s.

City Poet captures the excitement and promise of mid-twentieth-century New York in the years when it became the epicenter of the art world, and illuminates the poet and artist at its heart. Brad Gooch traces Frank O Hara s life from his parochial Catholic childhood to World War II, through his years at Harvard and New York. He brilliantly portrays O Hara in in his element, surrounded by a circle of writers and artists who would transform America s cultural landscape: Willem de Kooning, Franz Kline, Helen Frankenthaler, Jackson Pollock, Gregory Corso, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, LeRoi Jones, and John Ashbery.

Gooch brings into focus the artistry and influence of a life of guts and wit and style and passion (Luc Sante) that was tragically abbreviated in 1966 when O Hara, just forty and at the height of his creativity, was hit and killed by a jeep on the beach at Fire Island a death that marked the end of an exceptional career and a remarkable era.

City Poet is illustrated with 55 black and white photographs."

Описание: Writing with equal insight about New York City, Hollywood, and the small-town Pennsylvania world where he grew up, John O'Hara cultivated an unsentimental and often unsparing realism, aiming, he said, "to record the way people talked and thought and felt . . . with complete honesty." Praised by contemporaries including Ernest Hemingway and Dorothy Parker, he wrote about sex, drinking, and social class with a frankness ahead of its time. The fiction he published in The New Yorker (more than any other writer to this day) came to epitomize the kind of short story featured in that magazine, and his impeccable ear and skillful dialogue have influenced later writers such as Raymond Carver. Bringing together sixty stories written over four decades--the largest, most comprehensive collection of O'Hara's stories ever published--former New York Times Book Review editor Charles McGrath presents a fresh and arresting new perspective on one of American literature's master storytellers.

Описание: The National Book Award winning novel by the writer whom Fran Lebowitz called the real F. Scott Fitzgerald
Joe Chapin led a storybook life. A successful small-town lawyer with a beautiful wife, two over-achieving children, and aspirations to be president, he seemed to have it all. But as his daughter looks back on his life, a different man emerges: one in conflict with his ambitious and shrewish wife, terrified that the misdeeds of his children will dash his political dreams, and in love with a model half his age. With black wit and penetrating insight, "Ten North Frederick" stands with Richard Yates "Revolutionary Road," Evan S. Connell s "Mr. Bridge" and "Mrs. Bridge," the stories of John Cheever, and "Mad Men" as a brilliant portrait of the personal and political hypocrisy of mid-century America.
