Book Description
The death of a life-long friend and mentor forces a successful middle-aged executive, John Haley, to face the memories of his youth during the unpleasant return to his hometown to attend the funeral. John realizes his childhood experiences not only where the foundation for his success, but forces him to realize life's cycle predestines certain inevitable events. Through a series of unplanned encounters, John Haley must reconcile the happiness of his youth against the depression that overcomes him as he engages many of the central figures of his life. John maneuvers through these encounters emotionally, but father time's punishing blows weigh heavy on him. John's intermittent visits back to his hometown have never exposed him to the plight of those he grew to know and love, so the untimely death of a major character in his life opens the door to reflection and how he must think about the future. John Haley grew up in the turbulent 60's and innovative 70's. This time of black middle class discovery provided a new era for black youth to grow. Their parents, products of Jim Crow and segregation, look to provide unique educational and social experiences to their children. These experiences however provided John and many of his peers with new challenges in life. During his weekend trip, John tours the city he grew up in and reflects on the almost unbelievable events on his street. Some events hilarious, some events regrettable, but none are forgettable. As John tries to compartmentalize each, he continues to build the case, in his own mind, that his life is much more successful and meaningful because he has left this place. Susan, one of John's oldest and closes friends has returned to their hometown to continue life after a near death experience. Susan has a very different thought about their hometown. She sees it as a place of refuge and security, especially now that John has returned. Susan has a secret that she must share with John which will cause their destiny to become permanently connected. One bright spot in the visit for John is the chance meeting with Jill, his high school sweetheart. Although Jill has remained in their town, she could not help but wonder of the life that could have been. Happiness is relative and for John and Jill, their what if, becomes an excuse for passion and sex. But can chances lost help to establish a potential future? In all, John Haley must get beyond his past, whether pleasant or not, to return to the life that was meant for him. But will Susan's secret or Jill's passion cause him to reconsider?

Book Description
It's January 1943. Australia is at war and Perth is buzzing. US troops have permanently docked in the city in what local men refer to bitterly as the American occupation, and Perth women are having the time of their lives. The Americans have money, accents like movie stars, smart tailored uniforms and good manners. What's more, they love to dance and show a girl a good time, and young women are throwing caution to the wind and pushing social boundaries with their behaviour. Not Meg Eaton, however. The war has brought her nothing but heartbreak, stealing her young love eighteen months ago. Until, in the middle of a Perth heat-wave, she meets her lost lover's brother, Tom standing over a dead body in her neighbour's backyard. Suddenly, Meg finds herself embroiled in the murder mystery, and increasingly involved with Tom Lagrange. But is he all that he seems? And what exactly was his relationship with the dead woman? Debut author Deborah Burrows has brought her skills as a historian to the fore with this meticulously researched and thoroughly entertaining novel of love and intrigue.

My Side of the Street
Author: Jason DeSena Trennert
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 1466877154
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
On a sticky summer morning at the end of the Eighties, 19-year-old Jason DeSena Trennert—a bright, unconnected Georgetown undergrad with big dreams and an even bigger power tie—set out for Wall Street. Mustering the perceived panache of the bigwigs, he burst through the doors of America's oldest financial firms. He was roundly rejected. And entirely undeterred. Trennert accepted a position as a cold-caller and charged ahead with the blind zeal of inexperience, finding in the process a genuine affinity for the customs and history of his work. Clinging to his dream from humble beginnings in financial sector Siberia—Morgan Stanley's Brooklyn outpost—and enduring the villainization of a respectable profession across two boom-bust cycles, he opened his own boutique company, now one of the world's leading research firms. Part memoir, part love letter to an institution popularly viewed as a necessary (or as just plain) evil, My Side of the Street delivers the long-overdue defense of the investment banking industry critiqued by Michael Lewis and others, illuminating the ethical and decent majority who take the subway, worry about mortgages, and keep the entire enterprise on its feet. Introducing the general reader to captains of finance, famous on The Street but invisible to outsiders, Trennert lays on display the absurdity and unbridled joy of big business—a comic tale of unlikely success in America's most notorious industry.
