Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
The midlife crisis has become a cliché in modern society. Since the mid-twentieth century, the term has been used to explain infidelity in middle-aged men, disillusionment with personal achievements, the pain and sadness associated with separation and divorce, and the fear of approaching death. This book provides a meticulously researched account of the social and cultural conditions in which middle-aged men and women began to reevaluate their hopes and dreams, reassess their relationships, and seek new forms of identity and fresh pathways to self-satisfaction. Drawing on a rich seam of literary, medical, media, and cinematic sources, as well as personal accounts, Broken Dreams explores how the crises of middle-aged men and women were shaped by increased life expectancy, changing family structures, shifting patterns of work, and the rise of individualism.

Pages : 319
Book Description
Each year, readers, writers, and critics alike look forward to Thomas Hauser’s newest collection of articles about the contemporary boxing scene. As Booklist has proclaimed, “Many journalists have written fine boxing pieces, but none has written as extensively or as memorably as Thomas Hauser. . . . Hauser remains the current champion of boxing. . . . Hauser is a treasure.” Broken Dreams meets this high standard with its coverage of 2020’s most important fighters and fights, outside-the-ring controversies, regulatory missteps, and other issues that defined the year’s boxing scene. Hauser explores the heavyweight trio of Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, and Deontay Wilder in depth, as well as Canelo Álvarez and historic greats like Jack Dempsey, Carlos Monzon, and Muhammad Ali. Hauser also tackles the larger social challenges that imposed themselves so assertively in 2020, including the coronavirus pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement, runaway social media, the presidential election, and other forces that left a deep imprint on the sport and business of boxing.

THE CLUB OF BROKEN DREAMS: "Stories of Lost Dreams and Sudden Rediscoveries"
Author: FERDINANDO FREGA
Publisher: FERDINANDO FREGA
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
Throughout our lives, we have all had big dreams, ambitious ideas, and burning hopes. However, reality often presents us with challenges and obstacles that force us to change our plans and reconsider our expectations. The Broken Dreams Club was born from this context: a place where we explore stories of people who, despite seeing their dreams shattered, found a way to get back up, reinvent themselves, and find new meaning. The stories collected in this book are not only testimonies of disappointments, but also of resilience, humor and wisdom. Through these stories, we want to show how broken dreams can become opportunities for growth and transformation, and how irony and laughter can accompany us even in the most difficult moments. Each story is a journey through the experiences of ordinary people who, like many of us, have faced the collapse of their aspirations and have had to deal with reality. Life, with its ups and downs, teaches us that even in the moments of greatest discouragement, we can find a guiding light. The secret is in the way we choose to respond to adversity: with resilience, creativity and, sometimes, a pinch of irony. It is in moments of failure that we discover our true strengths, and often, these same moments become the foundation on which to build new dreams and new opportunities. Welcome to the Broken Dreams Club , where every dream, even if broken, contributes to building a unique mosaic of experiences and teachings. Here, I celebrate inner strength, the ability to adapt, and the beauty of second chances. Each chapter is a testimony of how, through sharing and reflection, we can transform our falls into springboards to new goals. Be inspired by the stories of those who have found light in the shadows and transformed difficulties into new possibilities. In this journey together, we will discover that true victory lies not in realizing every dream, but in finding meaning and joy in every step of our journey.

Book Description
Making it in a man’s world… When Hannah Barrington took on the job of safety manager at her father’s mine, she expected it to be challenging. Not only because of the high-pressure environment where safety is always paramount, but because she’s working in a traditionally male dominated world and there are plenty of men who have made it clear they don’t want her there. But Hannah is known for her pluck, and she’s determined to make her mark. She also refuses to be intimidated by anyone. That includes Liam Hennessy. An investigator with the New South Wales Resources Regulator, Liam Hennessy is responsible for investigating safety breaches at Hannah’s mine. Having recently been transferred to the Hunter Valley, this is the first time he’s ventured onto a Barrington family-owned mine site. Liam has long-held grievances against the Barrington family that go all the way back to high school. Now he has a chance for revenge, and he has Hannah very firmly in his sights. Unaware of the reason behind Liam’s antagonism, Hannah’s left confused and angry over Liam’s unbending attitude. He seems determined to make an example of the Barringtons and close their mine. Not only will that cost millions in lost production, but it will also reflect badly on her and one thing she can’t stand is failure. She wished she could simply win the investigator over with her charm, but he seems immune to her attempts. Too bad she finds him so darned attractive. What will it take for him to call a truce and work with her, rather than do his best to ruin everything she’s worked so hard for? Come on a journey with USA Today bestselling author Chris Taylor and dive deep into the lives and loves of the Barrington Family. You won’t be disappointed. Start reading today!

Book Description
Emmalynn Gallagher threw caution to the wind once—and found herself in the middle of a tornado. Needless to say, she won’t be doing that again. Now she fills her life with plans and to-do lists. Having moved home for a fresh start, Emma’s facing the ultimate re-do list when she abruptly comes face to face with Aubrey Glass, the source of Emma’s teenage yearning. Aubrey wouldn’t recognize yearning if it tornadoed into her face, but she does recognize Emma…even if she wishes she didn’t. Socializing, especially with her past, is Aubrey’s least favorite activity. She’s tender in spots no one can see and would prefer to fade into the background. Amidst the backdrop of towering shelves of books and the persistent aroma of freshly brewed coffee, Emma and Aubrey navigate their post-high school reunion. With plenty of fumbles and missteps, it doesn’t seem likely that they’ll manage to merge their paths, nor does it always seem that they want to…until suddenly, it’s the only thing that makes sense to either one of them.
