Heavy book cover
Heavy
An American Memoir
Kiese Laymon - 2022-10-01 (впервые опубликовано в 2018)
Рейтинг Goodreads
This memoir is a powerful exploration of the impact of secrets, lies, and deception on a black family, individuals, and a country on the brink of moral collapse. The author lays bare his complicated childhood in Mississippi, including experiences of sexual violence and his complex relationship with his mother, with unflinching honesty. Through personal stories and piercing intellect, Laymon asks us to confront the terrifying possibility that few in this nation actually know how to responsibly love and become free. Defiant yet vulnerable, Heavy is an insightful and comical examination of identity, art, friendship, family, and the weight that we all carry.

Иногда судьбе всё равно, что ты врач
Paul Kalanithi - 2016-01-12
Рейтинг Goodreads
Пол Каланити - талантливый врач-нейрохирург, и он с таким же успехом мог бы стать талантливым писателем. Более десяти лет он учился на нейрохирурга и всего полтора года отделяли его от того, чтобы стать профессором. Он уже получал хорошие предложения работы, у него была молодая жена и совсем чуть-чуть оставалось до того, как они наконец-то начнут настоящую жизнь, которую столько лет откладывали на потом. Полу было всего 36 лет, когда смерть, с которой он боролся в операционной, постучалась к нему самому. Диагноз - рак легких, четвертая стадия - вмиг перечеркнул всего его планы. Кто, как не сам врач, лучше всего понимает, что ждет больного с таким диагнозом? Пол не опустил руки, он начал жить! Он много времени проводил с семьей, они с женой родили прекрасную дочку Кэди, реализовалась мечта всей его жизни - он начал писать книгу, и он стал профессором нейрохирургии.

Просто дети book cover
Просто дети
Patti Smith - 2010-01-19
Рейтинг Goodreads
Патти Смит - американская рок-певица и поэт, подруга и любимая модель фотографа Роберта Мэпплторпа. В своих воспоминаниях она рисует точный и в то же время глубоко личный портрет эпохи. Нью-Йорк конца шестидесятых - начала семидесятых, атмосфера "Фабрики" Энди Уорхола и отеля "Челси", встречи с великими поэтами-битниками и легендарными музыкантами - все это неразрывно переплетено с историей взросления и творческого роста самой Патти, одной из самых ярких представительниц поколения. "Просто дети" - это не только бесценное свидетельство о времени и щемящее признание в любви ушедшему другу. Это глубокая, выверенная, образная проза поэта, выходящая далеко за рамки мемуарного жанра.
