A WHIFF OF PENNYROYAL: A SOUTHERN WOMAN'S STORY
Author: PATTI RUST
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1365756491
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 510
Book Description
"In 1919, without warning, a little four-year-old girl in Rome, Georgia was given to a family she had never seen before. From a situation of abject poverty, she was provided with a life of safety and privilege her siblings left behind would never have. But with this life of privilege came a childhood full of conflict as she faced another struggle: living with a tyrannical, difficult, unpredictable, impossible-to-please woman who had become her new mother. Years later in her teens, while spending her college vacation working at an exclusive mountain lodge, she met a young man named Harry Rust from Birmingham, Alabama, with whom she experienced an instant, overwhelming attraction. After a brief infatuation, they were separated by distance and circumstances for over two and a half years, years of letter writing and longing. Harry became her longed-for escape from her ironhanded mother and her dream for a wondrous future full of possibilities. But the future is not always what one envisions. In 1936, she and Harry married, barely knowing each other, but both madly sure of the certainty of their love. Little did she realize that she had escaped from life with one difficult personality to another who was not only the intensely passionate love of her life, but a man with two distinct personalities: the affectionate, amazingly talented man with whom she fell in love, and a flawed, desperately mentally ill individual. This true story, full of details of the culture, attitudes, foods, smells, and life in the South for a woman in the early to mid-1900s, is an amazing journey into her struggles, triumphs, joys, and sorrows. This is the life of Patti Rust." --

The Crane Wife
Author: CJ Hauser
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0385547102
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
A memoir in essays that expands on the viral sensation “The Crane Wife” with a frank and funny look at love, intimacy, and self in the twenty-first century. From friends and lovers to blood family and chosen family, this “elegant masterpiece” (Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author of Hunger) asks what more expansive definitions of love might offer us all. A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: TIME, THE GUARDIAN, GARDEN & GUN "Hauser builds their life's inventory out of deconstructed personal narratives, resulting in a reading experience that's rich like a complicated dessert—not for wolfing down but for savoring in small bites." —The New York Times “Clever, heartfelt, and wrenching.” —Time “Brilliant.” —Oprah Daily Ten days after calling off their wedding, CJ Hauser went on an expedition to Texas to study the whooping crane. After a week wading through the gulf, they realized they'd almost signed up to live someone else's life. What if you released yourself from traditional narratives of happiness? What if you looked for ways to leave room for the unexpected? In Hauser’s case, this meant dissecting pop culture touchstone, from The Philadelphia Story to The X Files, to learn how not to lose yourself in a relationship. They attended a robot convention, contemplated grief at John Belushi’s gravesite, and officiated a wedding. Most importantly, they mapped the difference between the stories we’re asked to hold versus those we choose to carry. Told with the late-night barstool directness of your wisest, most bighearted friend, The Crane Wife is a book for everyone whose path doesn't look the way they thought it would; for everyone learning to find joy in the not-knowing and to build a new sort of life story, a new sort of family, a new sort of home to live in.
