Shortlisted for the 2023 Booker Prize Longlisted for the 2024 Dublin Literary Award Longlisted for the 2022 National Book Award for Fiction A September 2022 IndieNext Pick A major debut, blazing with style and heart, that follows a Jamaican family striving for more in Miami, and introduces a generational storyteller. In the 1970s, Topper and Sanya flee to Miami as political violence consumes their native Kingston. But America, as the couple and their two children learn, is far from the promised land. Excluded from society as Black immigrants, the family pushes on first through Hurricane Andrew and later the 2008 recession, living in a house so cursed that the pet fish launches itself out of its own tank rather than stay. But even as things fall apart, the family remains motivated, often to its own detriment, by what their younger son, Trelawny, calls “the exquisite, racking compulsion to survive.” Masterfully constructed with heart and humor, the linked stories in Jonathan Escoffery’s If I Survive You center on Trelawny as he struggles to carve out a place for himself amid financial disaster, racism, and flat-out bad luck. After a fight with Topper-himself reckoning with his failures as a parent and his longing for Jamaica-Trelawny claws his way out of homelessness through a series of odd, often hilarious jobs. Meanwhile, his brother, Delano, attempts a disastrous cash grab to get his kids back, and his cousin, Cukie, looks for a father who doesn’t want to be found. As each character searches for a foothold, they never forget the profound danger of climbing without a safety net. Pulsing with vibrant lyricism and inimitable style, sly commentary and contagious laughter, Escoffery’s debut unravels what it means to be in between homes and cultures in a world at the mercy of capitalism and white supremacy. With If I Survive You, Escoffery announces himself as a prodigious storyteller in a class of his own, a chronicler of American life at its most gruesome and hopeful.

I Survived Rejection and You Can Too! by Mico Scott Holmes Pdf
As light as many people take it, rejection is a powerful weapon that the devil uses to destroy the hope, joy and peace of the children of God. There are many types of rejection. My story consists mainly of rejection of family and church. It is important that my story be not mistaken as a “pity party”. What happened to me is not only real, but the truth as it is told. If what has happened to me defines my state as “a victim”, then it is what it is, but please know that as I type the words of my experiences on this paper I am healed and victorious in Christ Jesus. This testimony is for others who have experience rejection as I have, to know that they are not alone. This testimony is spoken for those who are so hurt from rejection that they are not able to articulate in words how they feel. The purpose of this testimony is to speak loud so that others can release, heal and move on to their next assignment. Everything that happens in our lives can be used for God to get glory. God gets glory when we give it to Him. As Romans 8:28 states, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose. Rejection doesn’t feel good and the effects that it has on an individual can be detrimental to the state of a person’s mind, body and soul if not released. Rejection can be intentional or unintentional. Rejection does not discriminate. It is prey to anyone who is subjectable. Rejection doesn’t care if you are rich or poor; white or black; born in a family with mother or father or born in a single parent home; female or male; child or adult; rejection is real. This is my story. Yours may be different, but the one common goal that we share is that we survived. For those who may still battle with the aftermath of rejection, I pray that this testimony will encourage you to tell your story so that you may be healed. Someone’s life depends on your story, mainly yours. Just tell it!
What does it feel like when the adult members of a family are too preoccupied or self-absorbed to act as parents? What is life like for kids who grow up in a family where alcoholism is a daily reality, where separation and divorce hang like a cloud over daily life? In these situations it is too often the teen who assumes much of the responsibility and has to grow up quickly amidst the struggle to maintain even a semblance of stability. My Crazy Life presents the voices of ten teens who have lived through these situations. Rather than despair, you will hear these young people talking about how they coped and survived. One girl found strength through friendships and her sibling relationships. Another girl, abused by her alcoholic father, tells how her commitment to art and a sympathetic teacher gave value to her life. The Afterword by the head of psychiatry at a metropolitan children’s hospital provides guidance to those seeking help.

Adventuring with God We Survived—You Can Too by Claylan Coursey,Patricia Coursey Pdf
The greatest opportunity one has is to go on a venture with someone important. The Courseys went on an adventure with God as he called them into a special task with him. He performed wonders as he led them toward the fulfillment of the task he assigned them. They have written fifteen true life stories, mostly of Kenya, of different events that occurred along the way. Not all the situations were fun filled at the time, but with them in the rearview mirror, the Courseys enjoy laughing about them. There were troubles on the road and at home, in floods and dry times, by slithery creatures as well as by two-legged and four-legged creatures, and there were times of good health and times of health concerns. Some of these could have turned into quite bad situations. As the Courseys look back, they can enjoy and laugh at many of the situations with their children and friends and appreciate the ways by which the Lord brought them through each one. They desire to share some of them with you. They recommend that everyone follow God wherever he leads them and, in doing this experience, the best life possible. God brought the Courseys home. He will also bring you home as you venture with him.
I Survived 12+ Years After a Stroke and You Can Too by Gopi A. Tejwani PH. D. Pdf
The reasons for writing this book are manifold. For all stroke victims out there who are asking “why me?” I just want to say that you are not alone. If there is one thing I want to achieve through this book is to convey the message that even though a stroke can be debilitating but it is not the end of life. Do not ask yourself: Did I deserve a stroke? It is a fruitless question. One has to toughen up. Be optimistic. And do your best. Remember that there are people who are worse off than you, so be grateful for what you have. When I had my stroke, I thought that it was the end of my life. I could barely stand up straight and needed the help of three people to help me walk twenty feet! I was being fed through a feeding tube from my abdomen into the stomach. But I didn’t give up. With support from my wonderful family and friends, I worked very hard; took therapy; and stayed optimistic. If I can inspire even one person to not to give up hope and double their efforts, I have achieved my goal. I hope that this book serves a valuable tool to millions of stroke patients, their families, and friends, and brings back the joy in their life.
