Book Description
Tom is a retired scientific software engineer with fifty years of professional experience. He earned bachelor's and master's degrees from Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey. Frequently, thoughts flow into his head during the night. The Young Boy was one of those thoughts. The first few chapters were purely figments of his imagination. But later he recalled his worldwide business and pleasure travels and used The Young Boy as the media to convey his memories to you, the reader. Tom's Italian background and travels through Italy influenced the boy and characters he met. Family is very important to Tom, and so it is to the young boy. Tom and the boy worked with their fathers in a family business from an early age. However, advanced education separated the boy and Tom from the businesses. Mathematics was key in the development of both Tom and the boy. Tom learned advanced math from on-the-job education. The boy had a natural talent for math. None of the characters in the book have names. The author did not want the reader to preconceive the personalities of the characters.

Little Boy
Author: Lawrence Ferlinghetti
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0525565957
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
From the famed publisher and poet, author of the million-copy-selling collection A Coney Island of the Mind, his literary last will and testament -- part autobiography, part summing up, part Beat-inflected torrent of language and feeling, and all magical. "A volcanic explosion of personal memories, political rants, social commentary, environmental jeremiads and cultural analysis all tangled together in one breathless sentence that would make James Joyce proud. . ." —Ron Charles, The Washington Post In this unapologetically unclassifiable work Lawrence Ferlinghetti lets loose an exhilarating rush of language to craft what might be termed a closing statement about his highly significant and productive 99 years on this planet. The "Little Boy" of the title is Ferlinghetti himself as a child, shuffled from his overburdened mother to his French aunt to foster childhood with a rich Bronxville family. Service in World War Two (including the D-Day landing), graduate work, and a scholar gypsy's vagabond life in Paris followed. These biographical reminiscences are interweaved with Allen Ginsberg-esque high energy bursts of raw emotion, rumination, reflection, reminiscence and prognostication on what we may face as a species on Planet Earth in the future. Little Boy is a magical font of literary lore with allusions galore, a final repository of hard-earned and durable wisdom, a compositional high wire act without a net (or all that much punctuation) and just a gas and an inspiration to read.

Pages : 300
Book Description
Life can sometimes seem like a complicated constellation of detours and winding roads - some of which teeter on the side of ease and predictability, while others... well, not so much. Follow along with a father who was dealt a difficult hand as he recounts the tragic story of his family, ravished by one of the greatest mistakes in modern medicine. With raw grit and vulnerability, Scott recounts his life growing up in small town USA and details the ways in which addiction and mental illness resulted in losses that no father, son, or brother should even have to endure. Alongside his youngest son, Wes, a medical professional in psychiatry, they take a closer look into the world of addiction and the epidemic we find ourselves to be in - revealing the causes, variables, and paths to consider moving forward. Scott shares the lessons he learned throughout the journey of trying to find his firstborn son, Daniel, help in battling a disease that few understand. Through Daniel's story, the cracks in our system - the injustice, corruption, and discrimination - are directly illuminated and should inspire each of us to work better together. Little Boy Lost is a call to action.
