Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
A true story ... The SHOCKING BESTSELLER! "I always thought when consuming drugs they can fuck my body and do whatever they want with me. Because I hate my body, I'm fat and ugly and bulky – and I don't deserve better anyway. But during the moments when the drugs stop working I realize that those people do also fuck my soul. That hurts, well, no, there's more to it than that: it kills you without destroying your body, you're left behind, knowing you're fucked up, beyond cure, and that you gotta live with it ..." Having just come of age, the author tells about her childhood, having grown up in a children's home, started to consume drugs at the age of twelve, about street prostitution motivated by drug addiction, the tough life amidst johns, pimps and drug dealers and her attempt to escape – in one way or another. Unrelently honest and very outspoken, she describes the other side of the world we live in, a life devoid of comfort, without a family, yet subsidized or at least tolerated by the state.

There Is An Urgency
Author: Gregrhi Arawn Love
Publisher: Cwn Annwn
ISBN: 0982307403
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
Born into a world of horror, madness and chaos in 1973 to Debbie, a 23-year-old drug addicted prostitute and Howard, a 24-year-old addict and convict, Gregrhi Love grew up quickly with the Department of Children's Services becoming an active part of his life in 1974. With Howard in prison, the only father Gregrhi knew as a child was Bobby, his mother's pimp, drug dealer, and lover. In 1980, he was placed in his first foster home. While foster care was often horrifying, nothing compared to the daily near-death experiences he survived living in Father Panik Village with Bobby and Debbie. On May 23, 1980 his coerced testimony sent Debbie to prison. Now a grown man, Mr. Love uses his childhood traumas to change lives. Working as a teacher allows him to use the experiences of his life to help children who live in a similar world. His experiences give him a perspective most people do not have and knowledge that cannot be obtained from any textbook. There Is An Urgency explores these experiences in an effort to make others aware that people like him walk among us every day. There Is An Urgency is inimitable in that it juxtaposes Mr. Love's experiences as an adult, working with children in school and juvenile detention settings, with personal accounts of physical and sexual abuse from his childhood. There Is An Urgency to share this story of hard won hope and resilience after years of terrifying abuse by a real life monster.

Book Description
This work explores the frailty of human destinies and how the smallest and most insignificant decisions can generate a chain of events that impact the lives of thousands of people, in a Butterfly Effect reaction. The author plays with the chronologies of multiple timelines, jumping back and forth between the current time and the two alternate realities that emerge after the protagonist, a young, borderlines depressed woman, takes a seemingly trifling decision, that ends up impacting the lives of tens of people, before coming back to taunt her. “ Look, for example, the fact that I take this glass and move it two centimeters closer to the edge of the table will cause three people to die in Bangladesh in a year's time. Kind of ... Butterfly Effect, if you want to call it that. And I think the opposite is also true. Decisions made by chance by people on the other side of the planet affect us in a positive or negative way. And sometimes our own decisions can turn against us, after they've been around the world. ”
