The Jube Dog Never Lies by Ramin Zahed Pdf
This unusual coming of age story is set in Tehran, right before and after the 1979 revolution, which replaced the Shah’s westernized regime with the rule of Moslem fundamentalists. The story’s narrator is a 12-year-old boy with an overactive imagination, who is in love with all things American and is surrounded by tight-knit web of eccentric relatives. In his chaotic world, street dogs give profound advice; otherworldly jins co-exist with humans; and an ancient culture lives side by side with the daily rhythms of American pop songs and sitcoms. Despite its exotic milieu, the characters and events of the book will seem strangely familiar to all of us who have lived through the difficult process of growing up. This may be an Iranian family, but readers everywhere will be able to identify with the narrator's rivalries with his brother, the summertimecar trips, the painful pangs of first love, disastrous dinner parties at home, and the dark shadows that death casts on daily life. The book also gives readers a colorful account of living through a difficult political climate through the eyes of a young boy; a perspective beyond what appears on TV news and daily headlines, and an interesting comment on the role of American pop culture in a Third World country.

NEVER LIE DOWN by J. Carol Goodman Pdf
Carol Goodman has written a captivating novel about the life of two young girls in 1933, the height of the Depression, weaving in the stories of the families, a local murder, and the racial tensions that erupt in their community. Ms. Goodman puts the reader in the midst of this turmoil with subtlety and uncanny perception. This novel is a literary delicacy not to be missed. —Meg Peterson, author of Madam, Have You Ever Been Happy J. Carol Goodman, the well-known short story writer, has turned her considerable talents to the novel. She has written a riveting tale of young friendship and coming of age amidst a swirl of dark events set in a small New Jersey town during the Great Depression. It is a story of mystery, laugh-out-loud humor, deep humanity, and considerable charm. You will fall in love with Theodora. —Jan Slepian, author of award-winning The Alfred Summer and Astonishment: Life in the Slow Lane. Daring, dangerous and sometimes hilarious adventures, Theodora Davis, a minister’s daughter, in the height of the Depression and her best friend, Glorybe, are determined to make money to put food on the table. Glorybe’s father is ill and might lose his job or even die. Theodora has her first serious crush on him as she comes of age. The story occurs in the backdrop of racial tensions, which affects Theodora’s Colored friend, Jeremiah Johnson, who worked in the yard of the murdered man. Was he the murderer? Tension also rises between Theodora’s mother and father. Her mother is bombshell of an activist, unheard of in those days, to give “Colored” people equal rights. Her father believes the only way to bring about change is to change peoples’ hearts through the spirit of God. He is frightened that her mother’s actions are endangering the very people she so fervently wants to help. This conflict is resolved through a startling act at the end by Theodora’s father, an act that is against his moral precepts and against the law.

Female Nomad and Friends by Rita Golden Gelman Pdf
In 1987, Rita, newly divorced, set out to live her dream. She sold all her possessions and became a nomad. She wrote a book about her ongoing journey and, in 2001, insisted on putting her personal e-mail address in the last chapter—against all advice. It turned out to be a fortuitous decision. She has met thousands of readers, stayed in their homes, and sat around kitchen tables sharing stories and food and laughter. In this essay collection, Gelman includes her own further adventures, as well as those of writers and readers telling tales of the shared humanity they experienced in their travels. The stories are funny and sad, poignant and tender, familiar and bizarre. They will make you laugh and cry and maybe even send you off on your own adventure. Also included are fabulous international recipes such as vegetarian dolmades (stuffed grape leaves), chiles en nogada (stuffed poblano chiles topped with a white cream sauce with walnuts and a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds), and ho mok (an extraordinary fish-coconut custard from Thailand). Happy reading—and bon appétit, selamat makan, buen provecho!
