Letters to Mr. Darcy. Life is a Story - story.one
Author: Beatriz Iara Schoueri

Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
My dearest Mr. Darcy, allow me to make a sassy prediction: one day, you will read my name on this book cover, and by the time you realize it, you will be reading this letter. Awareness will strike you like lightning; you will drop your act and feel in your bones that you are the one I wrote it to. Pride, then, will take your ego to the highest heights as you remember our time together, but the prejudice resulting from the same period will be the one causing your fingers to tremble and your breath to falter; you will be taking the book home. What's more, I venture to say that, somehow, no matter where I might be, I will know it too. It's an inexplicable feeling, weird but wagerable. In the meantime, I leave you with a more daring question than the single "why?" messing with your head as soon as you started reading me: love rules the world, but as innocent and ardently as it may be, can it conquer it all? Yours truly, the author

The Jack Bank
Author: Glen Retief
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 1429960086
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
An extraordinary, literary memoir from a gay white South African, coming of age at the end of apartheid in the late 1970s. Glen Retief's childhood was at once recognizably ordinary--and brutally unusual. Raised in the middle of a game preserve where his father worked, Retief's warm nuclear family was a preserve of its own, against chaotic forces just outside its borders: a childhood friend whose uncle led a death squad, while his cultured grandfather quoted Shakespeare at barbecues and abused Glen's sister in an antique-filled, tobacco-scented living room. But it was when Retief was sent to boarding school that he was truly exposed to human cruelty and frailty. When the prefects were caught torturing younger boys, they invented "the jack bank," where underclassmen could save beatings, earn interest on their deposits, and draw on them later to atone for their supposed infractions. Retief writes movingly of the complicated emotions and politics in this punitive all-male world, and of how he navigated them, even as he began to realize that his sexuality was different than his peers'.
