Spent Saints & Other Stories
Author: Brian Jabas Smith
Publisher: Don't Be Afraid of Detroit Series
ISBN: 9781564390080
Category : Alcoholism
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Fiction. Noir Fiction. Punk Rock. Working Class. Urban Studies. In this powerful collection of linked stories, debut author Brian Jabas Smith gazes into the lives of the stunted and the lost. There's the teenaged bicycle-racing champion from the Arizona desert who's escaping an abusive home life. The jaundiced rock 'n' roll singer whose neon-lit gaze takes us from a Beverly Hills mansion to the crack-cocaine streets of old Hollywood. The desperate addict in the Phoenix barrio with nowhere to turn, strung out on crystal meth, porn, alcohol and nude dancers. Elsewhere, a Detroit journalist discovers that sobriety wasn't part of his job description, and the internally crippled mother whose lovely daughters are doomed for life. These stories are disturbing and raw yet offer eerily beautiful portrayals of loss, ultimately, reclamation, and perhaps, redemption.

Folk Like Me
Author: K.M. Lucchese
Publisher: Church Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 9780819222893
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
The lives of the saints are either too grisly for little kids or too saccharine for older ones. But this collection appeals to both groups with a combination of gentle humor and frankness – battle-tested at the author’s weekly chapel services at the school where she teaches. It’s organized into two full school years, with each saint’s story falling on or near his or her special day so that each story can be a springboard to a creative seasonal teaching unit or small festival. Saints represent a wide variety of ethnic and geographic backgrounds.
