Book Description
What happens when the life you've always dreamed of disappears in the blink of an eye? For Inez Ribustello, that day came twenty years ago on September 11th, 2001. Ribustello grew up in the small town of Tarboro, North Carolina but found her way to the big apple to attend culinary school in 1998. In New York City, her love for wine, food, often enjoying both at the same time, was born. She knew that working at Windows on the World-on the top floor of the Twin Towers-was where she was meant to be. So, she began to work entry-level positions as she waited for them to call and offer her a job. And waited and waited. Finally, the call came. And she landed the job. For over two years, Inez saw her dream become a reality. Windows became her home. It became the place she fell in love. The place she learned how to catalogue and recognize over thousands of wines. The place she learned how to run and manage people, and a business, to success. And then, on September 11th, 2001, while Inez was back in Tarboro for her sister's wedding, that reality evaporated into thick, black clouds of smoke. The weeks, and months, that followed left her broken. Feelings of devastation, guilt, exhaustion, and hopelessness bubbled up to the surface every day. But, over time, Inez finds herself again. Love is reborn, children provide a renewed insight on life, and new businesses provide growth and purpose. Life After Windows is written in Inez's honest, unadorned voice. It reads like a letter from a friend. It is large in scope, going right up to Black Lives Matter, and is an ambitious book, serious about sharing the realities of loss and what happens thereafter. Inez hopes readers find her story interesting and inspiring, and finish feeling left in a positive, hopeful place with lessons learned but memories cherished.

Author: Barbara Newhall Follett
Publisher: Standard Ebooks
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
A young girl named Eepersip lives with her parents in a cottage, but she feels trapped within its confines, so she leaves home to live a freer life in the wild. After leaving her parents’ home, she establishes a life for herself outdoors, rejecting both the society of adults and the comforts of civilization. Initially, she is happy to live in a meadow near her family’s home, but over time she is tempted to seek out new natural environments to live in. Meanwhile, her parents attempt to locate their daughter and to bring her back home. Follett started writing the novel in 1923 at the age of 8, but the first draft was lost in a house fire, which led her to rewrite the entire work. It was eventually published to critical success in 1927, when she was just 12 years old. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

"Beautiful design makes a beautiful life." - Charles Lewis Tiffany "If you see that box, you know that there's love behind it and that the person who gave it to you really cares. Inside, there's a gift that is special. That blue - there's no other shade that represents anything else." - Elle Fanning They are astonishing, wonderful, and always, invariably modern: The windows at Tiffany's Fifth Avenue flagship are the stuff dreams are made of. Their appeal is universal, inviting passers by, old and young, to vanish through the looking glass and into a spellbinding world of robin's egg blue where even the most elusive of fantasies may come true. This hand-bound oversize Ultimate Collection edition presents a well-curated tour of the intricately crafted displays that continue to serve as references of the zeitgeist, from the legendary designer Gene Moore's Christmas and Valentine's displays to the neon creations of the current Tiffany & Co. creative team. Along with never-before-seen concept sketches, historical manuscripts, behind the scenes imagery and insights by cultural influencers and devotees of the world's global arbiter of design and style, Windows at Tiffany's revisits the whimsy and spirit of one of the world's most recognised brands, and elicits nostalgia for each reader's first blue box moment.
