Until Further Notice, I Am Alive by Tom Lubbock Pdf

“These are thoughts for us all, sooner or later—and this is a book I'll keep with me, as long as I live.”—David Sexton, The Scotsman In 2008, art critic Tom Lubbock was diagnosed with a rare brain tumor and told he had only two years to live. Physically fit and healthy, and suffering from few symptoms, he faced his death with the same directness and courage that had marked the rest of his life. Lubbock was renowned for the clarity and unconventionality of his writing, and his characteristic fierce intelligence permeates this extraordinary chronicle. With unflinching honesty and curiosity, he repeatedly turns over the fact of his mortality, as he wrestles with the paradoxical question of how to live, knowing we’re going to die. Defying the initial diagnosis, Tom survived for three years. He savored his remaining days; engaging with books, art, friends, his wife and their young son, while trying to stay focused on the fact of his impending death. There are medical details—he vividly describes the slow process of losing control over speech as the tumor gradually pressed down on the area of his brain responsible for language—but this is much more than a book about illness; rather, it's a book about a man who remains in thrall to life, as he inches closer to death. “I hope that if I am ever diagnosed with a terminal illness I will remember to reread Until Further Notice, I Am Alive. It is, in its tough-minded way, truly joyous.”—Lynn Barber, Sunday Times

I Am Alive by Sheldon Artwell Pdf

I AM ALIVE is one of my beloved biographies. The content on each page is authentic. It covers much of my early life; the struggles that I encountered because of homelessness and the consequences I suffered from living on the streets of Jamaica. This book reveals the horrors of my past. From being raped multiple times, trafficked, threatened, ambushed by gunmen, and overcame by schizoaffective disorder, haunted by hallucinations, working on my personal design to defining my destiny in the moments of my decisions. This book has stories of how a black man overcame his challenges. A simple Jamaican becomes victorious over many tribulations. The Atlantic wasn’t crossed overnight, but it happened. I am Sheldon Artwell. I did not give in and I did not give up; I persevered. I faced my struggles and I am alive. Facing up to the numerous mountains in my life was not an easy task; from falling in love with multiple partners, getting engaged, walking away from several relationships to resigning from my job in early 2018 to keep my life. Travelling from city to city, sleeping on rocks, in bushes and abused by almost everyone I came in contact with was the norm. My daily reality was deeply painful. Hunger and thirst stretched my stomach to the point where I had to turn to the garbage bin for survival, tis the reason to say that I was challenged in every way, but I overcame my challenges. And I am alive.

If We Were Villains by M. L. Rio Pdf

“Much like Donna Tartt’s The Secret History, M. L. Rio’s sparkling debut is a richly layered story of love, friendship, and obsession...will keep you riveted through its final, electrifying moments.” —Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney, New York Times bestselling author of The Nest "Nerdily (and winningly) in love with Shakespeare...Readable, smart.” —New York Times Book Review On the day Oliver Marks is released from jail, the man who put him there is waiting at the door. Detective Colborne wants to know the truth, and after ten years, Oliver is finally ready to tell it. A decade ago: Oliver is one of seven young Shakespearean actors at Dellecher Classical Conservatory, a place of keen ambition and fierce competition. In this secluded world of firelight and leather-bound books, Oliver and his friends play the same roles onstage and off: hero, villain, tyrant, temptress, ingénue, extras. But in their fourth and final year, good-natured rivalries turn ugly, and on opening night real violence invades the students’ world of make-believe. In the morning, the fourth-years find themselves facing their very own tragedy, and their greatest acting challenge yet: convincing the police, each other, and themselves that they are innocent. If We Were Villains was named one of Bustle's Best Thriller Novels of the Year, and Mystery Scene says, "A well-written and gripping ode to the stage...A fascinating, unorthodox take on rivalry, friendship, and truth."
