Описание: Irish American poet Julie O`Callaghan`s first book since Tell Me This Is Normal: New & Selected Poems. Her new poems have evolved from early monologues, written in American demotic, to poems of heartache on the death of her husband, the poet Dennis O`Driscoll. But even in these harrowing poems she never loses her ear for absurdities of modern life.
Описание: Uncovers the life of Jane Cumming, who scandalized her contemporaries with tales of sexual deviancy but also defied cultural norms, standing up to male authority figures and showing resilience.
Karen Cumming and Patricia Milne are sisters who embarked on a daunting journey... one that many of us may go on at some point in our lives. They guided their 98 year old mother, Verna, through Ontario's long-term care system.
Unfortunately, few people on the inside of that system seemed to be guiding them.
The pair found themselves lost in a confusing maze of care coordinators, nurses, doctors, PSWs, therapists, paperwork, equipment purchases and rentals, and medication. It was unfamiliar territory. It was scary. They felt alone.
Serious decisions had to be made about Verna's end-of-life care, but the sisters often felt ill-informed and unprepared to make them.
Sound familiar?
Thousands of baby boomers across Ontario are currently in the same boat. Perhaps you're helping your elderly mom or dad. Maybe you're on the journey yourself.
Karen and Patricia have been where you are now.
This book is the survival guide they never had. Packed with indispensable resources, tips and insights, it will help you and your family to be proactive and prepared for the decisions that lie ahead.
You are not alone.

Описание: NOMINATED FOR THE 2019 NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FOR AUTOBIOGRAPHY ONE OF NPR'S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR SHORTLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NONFICTION SHORTLISTED FOR THE RATHBONES FOLIO PRIZE LONGLISTED FOR THE RSL ONDAATJE PRIZEThe acclaimed New York Times bestselling author of The Vanishing Velazquez shares a riveting true story "with as many twists and turns as any mystery" (Los Angeles Times) describing her mother's mysterious kidnapping as a toddler in a small English coastal village--"an incredible and incredibly unusual book about family secrets" (Nick Hornby, The Believer). In the fall of 1929, when Laura Cumming's mother was three years old, she was kidnapped from a beach on the Lincolnshire coast of England. There were no screams when she was taken, suggesting the culprit was someone familiar to her, and when she turned up again in a nearby village several days later, she was happy and in perfect health. No one was ever accused of a crime. The incident quickly faded from her memory, and her parents never discussed it. To the contrary, they deliberately hid it from her, and she did not learn of it for half a century. This was not the only secret her parents kept from her. For many years, while raising her in draconian isolation and protectiveness, they also hid the fact that she'd been adopted, and that shortly after the kidnapping, her name was changed from Grace to Betty. "Both page-turning and richly absorbing" (The Providence Journal), On Chapel Sands (originally titled Five Days Gone)unspools the tale of Cumming's mother's life and unravels the multiple mysteries at its core. Using photographs from the time, historical documents, and works of art, Cumming investigates this case of stolen identity with the toolset of a detective and the unique intimacy of a daughter trying to understand her family's past and its legacies. "Brilliant" (The Guardian) and "a story told with such depth of feeling and observation and such lyrical writing I couldn't put it down" (Anna Quindlen), On Chapel Sandsis a masterful blend of memoir and history, an extraordinary personal narrative unlike any other.
