Рейтинг Goodreads
Фрэнси Нолан видит мир не таким, как другие, - она подмечает хорошее и плохое, знает, что жизнь полна несправедливости, но при этом полна добрых людей. Она каждый день ходит в библиотеку за новой книгой и читает ее, сидя на пожарном балконе в тени огромного дерева. И почти все считают ее странноватой. Семья Фрэнси живет в бедняцком районе Бруклина, и все соседи знают, что без драм у Ноланов не обходится. Отец, Джонни, невероятный красавец, сын ирландских эмигрантов, работает поющим официантом и часто выпивает, поэтому матери, Кэти, приходится работать за двоих, чтобы прокормить семью. Да еще и сплетни подогревает сестра Кэти, тетушка Сисси, которая выходит замуж быстрее, чем разводится с мужьями. Но при этом дом Ноланов полон любви, и все счастливы, несмотря на трудную жизнь. Каждый из них верит, что завтра будет лучше, но понимает, что сможет выстоять перед любыми нападками судьбы. Почему у них есть такая уверенность? Чтобы понять это, нужно познакомиться с каждым членом семьи.

It's Even Worse Than It Looks
How the American Constitutional System Collided with the New Politics of Extremism
Thomas E. Mann - 2012-05-01
Рейтинг Goodreads
This book delves into the issues of hyperpartisanship and political deadlock in Congress that are endangering the American democratic system. The authors identify how the two major political parties have become adversarial and how one party has become ideologically extreme, refusing compromise at any cost. The authors offer useful ideas for reform and call on the media and public to focus on the root causes of dysfunction. This book is an urgent call to action for voters to reward problem-solving and strategically punish obstruction to save American democracy from collapse.
