Why Daddy, Why?
Author: Emelia Dion Hardy
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595214983
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
The reader will be drawn irresistably into the world of the author who presents a catalogue of abuse and cruelty suffered by herself as an innocent child, first at the hands of her alcoholic father, then by nuns, and later by a heartless husband who raped and beat her. This is compulsive reading.The book shows how the shadow of a father's cruelty can be cast over the whole life of a child--a child who, in this instance, never failed to turn the other cheek, or return love for cruelty and abuse, who manifested, in the end, the overriding power and strength of Christ who advocated love above all things. The book is a protest against domestic violence and institutionalised cruelty, and will hopefully stand as a beacon and warning against the violations suffered by so many Emelias whose heartfelt cries go unheard behind the closed or locked doors of our apparently respectable western civilization.

Pages : 312
Book Description
“Dating” at an advanced age isn’t for sissies. Neither is the thought of intimacy, especially facing each other in the buff. Jake Kaplan, seventy-five years old, and retired for the past ten, had recently lost his wife, Frieda, and had acquired the status of “single eligible male.” He learned his most attractive qualities to women were a full head of hair, a pension and the ability to drive a car at night. Phyllis insisted he wear a tie. Agnes wouldn’t travel in a subway or bus. Zelda lived in Newark. And, Doris wanted to know whether he had shortness of breath. There were rejections. There were disappointments. And with it...an occasional migraine. Of course, there were the kisses and the sleepovers. In either case, it wasn’t easy. Thank heavens, Jake could run for support to his new friends, daughter and son-in-law.

Book Description
Vivid and memorable characters aren't born: they have to be made. This book is a set of tools: literary crowbars, chisels, mallets, pliers and tongs. Use them to pry, chip, yank and sift good characters out of the place where they live in your memory, your imagination and your soul. Award-winning author Orson Scott Card explains in depth the techniques of inventing, developing and presenting characters, plus handling viewpoint in novels and short stories. With specific examples, he spells out your narrative options–the choices you'll make in creating fictional people so "real" that readers will feel they know them like members of their own families. You'll learn how to: • draw the characters from a variety of sources, including a story's basic idea, real life–even a character's social circumstances • make characters show who they are by the things they do and say, and by their individual "style" • develop characters readers will love–or love to hate • distinguish among major characters, minor characters and walk-ons, and develop each one appropriately • choose the most effective viewpoint to reveal the characters and move the storytelling • decide how deeply you should explore your characters' thoughts, emotions and attitudes
