Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Clues to recognizing and understanding the fractured psyche of a youngster named Charles appear very early on in his telling of what initially seems to be a charming childhood anecdote, and are scattered throughout his continuing narrative.Through a series of childhood memories, recounted chronologica…lly and in flashback, we follow Charles as he copes with events in his young life that add to the psychological damage. The story is told from the perspective of the boy at the time of the events.The initial childhood traumas that led to his personality flaws can only be hinted at since they are prior to or erased from recollection, but by the time we first meet the young Charles, his major coping mechanism has been established. He likes to walk, take long walks, in which the percussive rhythm and his perceptions of speed and flight are therapeutic. He feels like he's flying, high and free. He has no thought of why that feels good. He has no concept of what is normal or what is not. If he could express it, he'd say, 'It is what it is.' But the astute reader will read much more into these walks and other coping mechanisms that are subtly revealed.As we reach the conclusion of this story, the boy has come to a degree of enlightenment, but his journey to understanding continues.

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - This is a love story that spans over a sixty-eight-year period. Some of this time was unrequited love for a painful twenty-eight years and also a happy time of reconciliation. The main character of the story is Ralph H. Little (1908-1999).He pursued the 'Love of his life,' Freda, for all of his adult…live. A log house in the Oregon woods defines Ralph more than anything else in his life. He was told during the courtship of Freda that one condition of marriage was the building of a log house on her father's 180-acre, Oregon homestead.Logs were cut by hand and hauled to the construction site by horses. The log house was built not only with hard work and sweat, by 'Uncle' Ralph, but primarily with love for his beloved Freda.Ralph suffered betrayal and the loss of Freda. After 28 dark and lonely years Freda returned after she suffered a betrayal in her life. There was a happy remarriage and almost immediately Freda suffered illness and became bed-ridden. Freda was expected to live for only six months. Ralph lived out his marriage vows by nursing Freda for 13 years beyond the time she was expected to live.Following the death of Freda, Ralph began showing signs of dementia. He pleaded with his nephew and niece, who became his caregivers, to help him stay in his log house, for as long as possible. He often said, 'I will have to be handcuffed to leave this house.' Sadly it eventually came to pass that is exactly what happened.This story is also about those, 'sweet and sour times', and the resulting family relationships and legal issues often faced by caregivers.

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Africa has a way of luring you in, Scott Corey writes in the opening lines of Whistling for Hippos. It begins with a flash of dark eyes in the firelight and ends with life-long fascination. Or it may begin with a mud-brick village awash in moonlight, the delicious taste of peanut sauce and rice, or th…e grunt of a hippo from midstream. The strongest tug on Corey's heart came the first time one of his students raised a slender dark hand and asked a question. This was the true Africa, the living, breathing Africa he came to love.Corey's charming and humorous account of life in West Africa will appeal to readers of all ages who enjoy adventure and love of travel. The memoir contains characters and stories that show the depth and resilience of human nature.
