Автор: Matson Ralph Corky Название: Prodigious Son: A Memoir of Miracles ISBN: 1098308875 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781098308872 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 17460.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: How many times can you cheat death on your path to enlightenment? Meet Ralph Corky Matson, a modern-day urban shaman who consistently beats the odds. In this captivating memoir, Matson leads us through Woodstock, down drug alleys, over mountain ashrams and around gamblers on a never-ending quest for higher consciousness as he struggles with his inner demons--and angels. Born to a devoted mother who struggled to protect him from the unjustified hatred of a tyrannical father, Matson grew up in poverty with a negative self-image that haunted him even as he associated with remarkable people such as Ram Dass, Timothy Leary, Rammurti S. Mishra, Swami Rama, Elias DeMohan and Patricia Cota Robles. His many brushes with death, including accidents, tumors, overdoses and heart failure only confirmed his spiritual beliefs and demonstrated the miraculous power of healing. Journey with him as he not only overcomes the hardships of an uncertain early life, but grieves the loss of two wives to illness and forgives the father who tormented him. There is a tangible love felt in these pages, for every character we encounter. Even in his depictions of heartbreak or cruelty, Matson generously renders a world--and a philosophy--of devotion, kindness, and perseverance that is the underlying thread of his life story. Edgy, yet inspirational, Prodigious Son: A Memoir of Miracles offers hope and spiritual awakening in the middle of despair.

Автор: Luther Corky Williams, Sage Birchwater Название: Corky Williams: Cowboy Poet of the Cariboo Chilcotin ISBN: 1927575184 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781927575185 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 22870.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: A diminutive cowboy with a full beard and a Texas drawl stands onstage at Expo 86 in Vancouver telling wild and woolly stories of life in the Chilcotin backcountry. The audience is mesmerised by his poetic ballad of an alcoholic dog that rode on the back of his saddle in Anahim Lake. The performer is Luther Corky Williams. Originally from Texas, Corky and his wife, Jeanine, moved from Los Angeles to Anahim Lake, BC, to become ranchers. Corky had grown up on a ranch along the Mexican border before heading to LA to work in the film industry. The learning curve was steep for the family as they tried to get used to sixty-below temperatures, keeping watering holes open for the cattle through four feet of river ice, contending with marauding grizzly bears, getting stuck in impossible bog holes, educating children and surviving the hoards of bloodthirsty mosquitoes. In the West Chilcotin, a country known to be hell on dogs and women, Jeanine says she thrived. "I loved the ranching life", she says, "but I felt the kids needed a better education". Eventually Jeanine and the children moved to Williams Lake while Corky stayed at the ranch. After a freak accident at the Anahim Lake Stampede, he was unable to continue life as a rancher, so he decided to return to his previous career onstage and in film. Getting chosen to perform at Expo was the big break he needed. From there he got an agent in Vancouver and landed parts in television shows like CBCs "The Beachcombers" and CTVs "Bordertown". After Corky and Jeanine split up in 1990, Corky moved back to Texas to work in theatre productions with his brother Jaston Williams, and he performed on some of the major stages across the United States. By 2007, Corky, longing for the wide-open spaces of BCs Cariboo, moved back to Williams Lake. "After living in Texas for fifteen years, I just got a wild hair up my ass to get up and come back to Canada", Corky says. Corky became known as one of Western Canadas most beloved cowboy poets, performing his spoken word stories and poetry across the province.
