REVIEW:


THE GO-TO MANUAL FOR DEPRESSION



This book is a tour through proven strategies for healing from depression. Chapter 2 (First Aid) gives a concise summary of things that can be worked on right away. This chapter alone is rich with practical advice. Later chapters deal with different frameworks for changing habits that lead to depression. The author recommends other authors' books where appropriate. There is a lot of helpful content in this book and it is presented in a straightforward way.

Jobs specs are to work for a tomorrow for today’s youngsters, and a tomorrow worth surviving in. Both of these require the same change: transforming a global culture of greed and hate with one of compassion and cooperation. Such an enlightened culture will stop our slide toward extinction, and even if it doesn’t, it will be far better to live in, for everyone. Everything Bob does, including his 19 published books, and his work at Bobbing Around https://bobrich18.wordpress.com advances this cause. His motto: Commit random acts of kindness.

Daniel Gawthrop Reviews Victim ~ A Feminist Manifesto from a Fierce Survivor

TITLE OF BOOK: Victim: A Feminist Manifesto from a Fierce Survivor

ASSURANCE TO SATISFY COPYRIGHT LAW:

Daniel Gawthrop Reviews Victim ~ A Feminist Manifesto from a Fierce Survivor


REVIEW:

For any new author seeking a large audience for a polemical work, the self-declared “manifesto” is a risky undertaking. Driven by the urgency of singular purpose, a manifesto in the wrong hands can result in the most artless of writing: self-righteous, tone-deaf in its didacticism, utterly lacking in irony, or all three. In a book title, the word “manifesto” combined with “feminist” and “victim” calls up all sorts of red flags that will turn off certain readers: one might well assume that what’s between the covers will be drearily predictable and all too depressing.

Fortunately, this “manifesto” is nothing of the kind. To the contrary, the reader is in good hands with Karen Moe: her first book, a memoir about rape and recovery, turns out to be creative non-fiction of the most readable, if gut-wrenching, sort. Much of this has to do with the author’s self-deprecating humility, which shines through in every chapter. In turning the narrative lens toward herself, Moe—an art critic, visual/performance artist, and feminist activist—employs a high degree of self-awareness in deconstructing not only a traumatic event in her own life but also the misogynistic ideas and behaviours that produce rape culture, constantly examining her own assumptions while doing so. She has clearly done her homework, too, coming to this project armed with all the feminist theory she needs to build her case. ...

Now fifty-five, Moe says she was emotionally incapable of writing this memoir until now. And that’s a good thing, for Victim is a much better and wiser book than it would have been had she published it within a short time of her terrifying abduction. As a memoir charting the author’s decades-long recovery, Victim is a rich and soulful testament to the power of human resilience that redefines the meaning of victimhood itself. It confirms the power of art as a source of healing while offering rape victims a time-tested roadmap for recovery, self-empowerment, and—in response to reactionary political events like the overturning of Roe vs. Wade—resistance.

Josh Friedman Reviews Jack Sh*t: Voluptuous Bagels and Other Concerns . . .




TITLE OF BOOK:  JACK SH*T: VOLUPTUOUS BAGELS AND OTHER CONCERNS OF JACK FRIEDMAN (JACK SH*T VOLUME 1)


AUTHOR OF BOOK: JACK FRIEDMAN


ABOUT THE AUTHOR: 

 An essayist, reporter, standup comedian, and political columnist, his work has appeared in Esquire, The Progressive Populist, Inside Media; The Las Vegas Review-Journal; and AAPG EXPLORER, a magazine for petroleum geologists, which is all the more noteworthy, considering he knows little about petroleum geology and has hurt himself pumping his own gas, Barry  does radio commentary on Public Radio Tulsa and appeared in UHF with “Weird Al" Yankovic, a movie which still provides him with $3.76 residual checks every time it plays at some Lithuanian drive-in.


 X Yes, I have received permission from the reviewer to reprint their review in its entirety. 


REVIEW:

This is the relationship, including many trips to many 2-for-1 buffets in many different cities, between a 90-something father and his 60-something son over the last 20 years of the father’s life. Through carefully prepared decaf, trips to Florida to see the relatives, hearing loss, dementia, VA visits, playing “Crap” at Indian casinos, and living at “The Hebrew Home,” the father, a Purple Heart recipient (maybe) and a CPA (maybe), wrings every ounce out of life that he can. And a son takes notes throughout it all.


REVIEWER’S BYLINE: 

Barry is also the author of Jacob Fishman's Marriages, Funny You Should Mention It, Road Comic, Four Days And Year Later, and The Joke Was on Me.
