Die Young with Me
Author: Rob Rufus
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1501142631
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
In the tradition of John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars and Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, this incredibly moving and harrowing true story of a teenager diagnosed with cancer is “a resounding affirmation of how music can lift one’s spirits beyond gray skies and bad news (Kirkus Reviews).” Punk’s not dead in rural West Virginia. In fact, it blares constantly from the basement of Rob and Nat Rufus—identical twin brothers with spiked hair, black leather jackets, and the most kick-ass record collection in Appalachia. To them, school (and pretty much everything else) sucks. But what can you expect when you’re the only punks in town? When the brothers start their own band, their lives begin to change: they meet friends, they attract girls, and they finally get invited to join a national tour and get out of their rat box little town. But their plans are cut short when Rob is diagnosed with a rare form of cancer that has already progressed to Stage Four. Not only are his dreams of punk rock stardom completely shredded, there is a very real threat that this is one battle that can’t be won. While Rob suffers through nightmarish treatments and debilitating surgery, Nat continues on their band’s road to success alone. But as Rob’s life diverges from his brother’s, he learns to find strength within himself and through his music. Die Young with Me is a “raw, honest picture of the weirdness of growing up” (Marky Ramone) and the story of a brave teen’s battle with cancer and the many ways music helped him cope through his recovery.

Live Fast, Die Young
Author: Lawrence Frascella
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 0743291182
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
The complete story behind the groundbreaking film Rebel Without a Cause is vividly revealed in this fascinating book as provocative as the film itself. The revolutionary film Rebel Without a Cause has had a profound impact on both moviemaking and youth culture since its 1955 release, virtually giving birth to our concept of the American teenager. And the making of the movie was just as explosive for those involved. Against a backdrop of the Atomic Age and an old Hollywood studio system on the verge of collapse, four of Hollywood's most passionate artists had a cataclysmic and immensely influential meeting. James Dean, Natalie Wood, Sal Mineo, and director Nicholas Ray were each at a crucial point in their careers. The young actors were grappling with their fame, burgeoning sexuality, and increasingly reckless behavior, and their on- and off-set relationships ignited as they engaged in Ray’s vision of physical melees and psychosexual seductions of startling intensity. Through interviews with the surviving members of the cast and crew and firsthand access to both personal and studio archives, the authors reveal Rebel's true drama: the director’s affair with sixteen-year-old Wood, his tempestuous “spiritual marriage” with Dean, and his role in awakening the latent sexuality of Mineo, who would become the first gay teenager to appear on film. This searing account of the upheaval the four artists experienced in the wake of Rebel is complete with thirty photographs, including ten never-before-seen photos by famed Dean photographer Dennis Stock.

Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Every martyr had surrendered long before their ultimate sacrifice, death. This book will help me to grow in faith and strengthen my understanding of all that God is. I will watch as God patches up the wounds of my heart so that I can step fully into the calling and all the plans that He has for my life. Legends Die Young unveils the journey every believer embarks on--a battle against forces seeking to separate them from their faith in Jesus. In an era marked by deconstruction and great offense, where the timeless solution lies in the essence of discipleship, this book isn't just a collection of narratives; it's a repository of practical wisdom and contemporary tales featuring modern legends in the Christian faith who selflessly sacrificed themselves to ensure the longevity of their faith. It echoes a truth: every martyr had surrendered long before their ultimate sacrifice, death. Many books teach you to be a better you; few teach you to lay your life down. Within these pages readers will explore transcending bitterness, betrayal, and unforgiveness, as well as navigating through the storms of hardship with grace and mercy as our guiding lights. Whether readers are shepherding a small group or leading stadiums, this book underscores the essence of nurturing their heart's core and fostering an unwavering connection with God--a connection resilient against the cunning schemes of the devil, ensuring a life marked by resounding victory. This book aspires to penetrate the very essence of a believer's soul, igniting in them an unshakable and triumphant faith in Jesus. It's crafted to profoundly impact readers, equipping them with tangible tools to overcome challenges, accompanied by real-life narratives of individuals who have traversed similar paths. "Potential prodigals will never have to eat with pigs if their faith in Jesus is strengthened and they simply can see light at the end of the tunnel of whatever season they are in." --Brian Barcelona
