Описание: Thaw delves into the issues at the core of a resilient family: kin ship, poverty, violence, death, abuse, and grief. The poems follow the speaker, as both mother and daughter, as she travels through harsh and beautiful landscapes in Canada, Sweden, and the United States. Moving through these places, she examines how her surroundings affect her inner landscape; the natural world becomes both a place of refuge and a threat. As these themes unfold, the histories and cold truths of her family and country intertwine and impinge on her, even as she tries to outrun them.Unflinching and raw, Chelsea Dingman’s poems meander between childhood and adulthood, the experiences of being a mother and a child paralleling one another. Her investigation becomes one of body, self, woman, mother, daughter, sister, and citizen, and of what those roles mean in the contexts of family and country.

Описание: Poets like Billy Collins, Robert Frost, Rumi, and Bob Dylan write poetry that is both literary and accessible. So does Chris Dingman. As reviewers have attested, Dingman's poems are also "soulful and wistful and whimsical at the same time," with "more than a bit of cheeky humor thrown in." These are poems that "really see the world," but will also "give you ideas you didn't have before." Funny and tender. Surprising and resonant. The wondrous in the everyday. "A sparrow's feet on palm fronds." Selections from The Morning I Married the Sky: go niners or something if I had a football team their colors would be oak-leaf green against the gold of dry summer California grass about an hour before sunset and practice would be canceled constantly you don't build up you don't build up good works and drag them in a bag up to heaven and then unpack them before the almighty for his approval god is whistling, will you sing along? To read Dingman's poems is to cancel practice, to sing along with god, to marry the sky.For more from and about Chris Dingman, who now writes under the pen name Chris Spark, visit www.Sparkwrites.com

Описание: Many smart people see alienation, struggle, and then eternal extinction as just how things are. To believe otherwise and keep being smart seem like mutually exclusive propositions. But we've all at times felt something-a richness, a satisfaction, a meaning-that runs deeper than Darwinism, materialism, and cynicism. In these moments, we connect to something dazzling that we felt when we were kids. Then poof. It's gone. What if we had reasons to hang onto that feeling? Not nice ideas. Not dusty books. Not stale traditions. But good reasons. Compelling reasons. Smart reasons. For more from and about Chris Dingman, who now writes under the pen name Chris Spark, visit: www.Sparkwrites.com
Автор: Dingman Carolyn Название: Cancel the Wedding ISBN: 0062276727 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780062276728 Издательство: HarperCollins USA Рейтинг: Цена: 11140.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
A heartfelt fiction debut that will appeal to fans of Emily Giffin's Southern charm and Jennifer Weiner's compelling, emotionally resonant novels about the frustrations of blood ties, Cancel the Wedding follows one woman's journey to discover the secrets of her mother's hidden past--and confront her own uncertain future.
On the surface, Olivia has it all: a high-powered career, a loving family, and a handsome fiance. She even seems to be coming to terms with her mother Jane's premature death from cancer. But when Jane's final wish is revealed, Olivia and her elder sister Georgia are mystified. Their mother rarely spoke of her rural Southern hometown, and never went back to visit--so why does she want them to return to Huntley, Georgia, to scatter her ashes?
Jane's request offers Olivia a temporary escape from the reality she's long been denying: she hates her "dream" job, and she's not really sure she wants to marry her groom-to-be. With her 14-year-old niece, Logan, riding shotgun, she heads South on a summer road trip looking for answers about her mother.
As Olivia gets to know the town's inhabitants, she begins to peel back the secrets of her mother's early life--truths that force her to finally question her own future. But when Olivia is confronted with a tragedy and finds an opportunity to right a terrible wrong, will it give her the courage to accept her mother's past--and say yes to her own desire to start over?

Описание: Modern neuroscience methods like neuroimaging, allow us to visualize the inner-workings of the brain in almost real-time. These exciting technologies bring us closer to making sense of why we do the things we do. Drawing on the author's popular YouTube channel, 2-minute Neuroscience, Your Brain Explained helps readers understand the inner-workings of the human brain through the neuroscience behind common human experiences such as fear, pleasure, sadness, memory, sleep, language-development and more. These experiences are further illuminated by a discussion, in layman's terms, of the area of the brain involved, and what happens when things "go wrong" (depression, insomnia, dementia, addiction, etc.). Evidence-based practical tips for reducing risk and symptoms, as well as new findings that challenge common assumptions, such as "brain games" don't actually work to reduce dementia risk," will appeal to anyone obsessed with building defenses against the most common faults of the mind. The author's own illustrations reinforce learning and deepen reader engagement.
