A Stolen California by Donald Sinclair Pdf

When Vern Hurley and his wife, Bliss, traveled to Detroit for a wedding, they visit their friend Tom Kemp, a sometime newspaper reporter who is writing fiction and who just returned home from living in Spain. The three of them are school friends, separated by the Hurley’s move to Berkeley, California, where Vern is a successful labor lawyer after attending the university. Tom is having trouble at home. His parents want him to settle down with a career and a wife. The Hurleys offer him the opportunity to come to California for a look-see on the possibility to live out there if he likes it. After a session of newspaper work in Detroit, Tom quits under pressure and accepts the invitation to visit the Hurleys in Berkeley. Out in California, Tom, while touring the San Francisco area with the Hurleys, senses the marriage is falling apart. Tom stays neutral until events finally lead to the disintegration of the Hurley marriage. Tom must make a decision that will change his life.

A Stolen Childhood by Ruthann D. Moyer Pdf

A beautifully touching portrait of that most difficult person to write aboutone blessed with gifts beyond what we can imagine for ourselves (which might be an alternate definition of prodigy or of genius). Ruthann Moyer not only brings her great uncle to life on the page, but helps us, the ordinary reader, to both luxuriate in his gift and to identify with himto understand him so well he really doesnt seem quite so beyond us. Which is a notable and quite reader-friendly achievement. As a bonus, Moyer deftly portrays the earlyand mid-2Oth-century worlds of America and Europe (both seemingly far removed from the current state of affairs) in which an artistic savant makes his way.

The Stolen Light by Ved Mehta Pdf

Book 6 in Ved Mehta's Continents of Exile series. Nearly 50 years in the making, Continents of Exile is one of the great works of twentieth-century autobiography: the epic chronicle of an Indian family in the twentieth century. From 1930s India to 1950s Oxford and literary New York in the 1960s-80s, this is the story of the post-colonial twentieth century, as uniquely experienced and vividly recounted by Ved Mehta. The Stolen Light engages with the particular difficulties of Mehta's experience: he was blind in a college made for the seeing, he was an Indian in the United States, a Hindu in a Christian environment, a dark-skinned man surrounded by white people. With compelling honesty and humour, Mehta describes his struggles to live an ordinary university life - dating, riding a bicycle, keeping up with his studies - while dealing with incredible obstacles.
