Book Description
GEORGIA – on my mind defies classification. More than a collection of personal essays and photography, this book is a reflection, confession, and commentary on the bittersweet adventure of life. Georgia Lee’s unique voice is witty and self-deprecating; perceptive and astute. Her stories, illustrated by her poignant photography, combine humor and pathos in equal measure. MEET THE BEATLES!!! speaks to her rabid pre-teen hysteria at The Beatles’ 1965 Atlanta concert that led her mother to administer a post-show sedative. Accompanying photographs include her prized framed ticket with its $5.50 cost of admission. LICE LESSONS transforms every mother’s nightmare – a child’s lice infestation, during her own suicidal depression into a love story of mother-daughter togetherness, illustrated with a de-lousing photo from Atlanta’s Lice Ladies emporium. BIOLOGICAL CLOCK speaks to cultural impositions on women. Georgia Lee’s brave recounting of her reproductive battles is painful, yet compelling. Under a so-called “biological clock,” to have a baby, she endures horrific medical negligence and months of hospitalization that lead to the stillborn delivery of a son, followed by a bitter separation and divorce. In post-traumatic shock, as a working single parent of a four-year-old toddler, the tragedy is redeemed by a miraculous pregnancy and delivery, at 40 years old, of a beautiful, healthy daughter. An unexpected memorial, 20 years later, links a time to mourn and a time to heal. A tale of longing and loss, torment and joy, Biological Clock addresses the painful issues so many women endure, often in silence. Through every story and image, Georgia Lee is unflinchingly honest and authentic. On My Mind is one woman’s journey of joy and pain. Though all paths vary, the journey is universal.

Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
"Nothing short of astonishing. The best writers are brave writers, and Harris has proven herself among those ranks." —Mateo Askaripour, New York Times bestselling author of Black Buck A compelling debut that glows with bittersweet heart and touching emotion, deeply interrogating questions of family, redemption, and unconditional love in the sweltering summer heat of Savannah, as two people discover what it means to truly forgive. It's been eight years since Sara Lancaster left her home in Savannah, Georgia. Eight years since her daughter, Alana, came into this world, following a terrifying sexual assault that left deep emotional wounds Sara would do anything to forget. But when Sara's father falls ill, she's forced to return home and face the ghosts of her past. While caring for her father and running his bookstore, Sara is desperate to protect her curious, outgoing, genius daughter from the Wylers, the family of the man who assaulted her. Sara thinks she can succeed—her attacker is in prison, his identical twin brother, Jacob, left town years ago, and their mother are all unaware Alana exists. But she soon learns that Jacob has also just returned to Savannah to piece together the fragments of his once-great family. And when their two worlds collide—with the type of force Sara explores in her poetry and Jacob in his astrophysics—they are drawn together in unexpected ways. "An unforgettable portrayal of familial tragedy, bravery, and redemption." —Kim Michele Richardson, New York Times bestselling author of The Book Woman's Daughter

Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
The Mono Project is the much talked-about open source initiative to create a Unix implementation of Microsoft's .NET Development Framework. Its purpose is to allow Unix developers to build and deploy cross-platform .NET applications. The project has also sparked interest in developing components, libraries and frameworks with C#, the programming language of .NET.The controversy? Some say Mono will become the preferred platform for Linux development, empowering Linux/Unix developers. Others say it will allow Microsoft to embrace, extend, and extinguish Linux. The controversy rages on, but--like many developers--maybe you've had enough talk and want to see what Mono is really all about.There's one way to find out: roll up your sleeves, get to work, and see what you Mono can do. How do you start? You can research Mono at length. You can play around with it, hoping to figure things out for yourself. Or, you can get straight to work with Mono: A Developer's Notebook--a hands-on guide and your trusty lab partner as you explore Mono 1.0.Light on theory and long on practical application, Mono: A Developer's Notebook bypasses the talk and theory, and jumps right into Mono 1.0. Diving quickly into a rapid tour of Mono, you'll work through nearly fifty mini-projects that will introduce you to the most important and compelling aspects of the 1.0 release. Using the task-oriented format of this new series, you'll learn how to acquire, install, and run Mono on Linux, Windows, or Mac OS X. You'll work with the various Mono components: Gtk#, the Common Language Runtime, the class libraries (both .NET and Mono-provided class libraries), IKVM and the Mono C# compiler. No other resource will take you so deeply into Mono so quickly or show you as effectively what Mono is capable of.The new Developer's Notebooks series from O'Reilly covers important new tools for software developers. Emphasizing example over explanation and practice over theory, they focus on learning by doing--you'll get the goods straight from the masters, in an informal and code-intensive style that suits developers. If you've been curious about Mono, but haven't known where to start, this no-fluff, lab-style guide is the solution.
