D´Ri and I: A Tale of Daring Deeds in the Second War with the British (buecher.de - (Teil1)) |  Produktbeschreibung (21547724): 1901. A tale of daring deeds in the Second War with the British. Being the Memoirs of Colonel Ramon Bell, U.S.A. The book begins: A poet may be a good companion, but, so far as I know, he is ever the worst of fathers. Even as grandfather he is too near, for one poet can lay a streak of poverty over three generations. Doubt not I know whereof I speak, dear reader, for my mother´s father was a poet-a French poet, too, whose lines had crossed the Atlantic long before that summer of 1770 when he came to Montreal. He died there, leaving only debts and those who had great need of a better legacy-my mother and grandmother.

|  Produktbeschreibung (21577908): The lightning kept flashing, slicing the opaque darkness like a watermelon. Up ahead, in each streak of light, a small house could be seen. It set off the road a way under a tree; it´s black branches writhing in the wind, lashing the roof of the house beneath it. Sometimes the lightning hit the windows of the house and they glared like angry eyes - eyes that, in the torrents of rain, looked like they were crying. Somewhere in the night a cat screamed...then another...or was it a cat? Amid the roar of thunder the spine-freezing shriek came again...cat? Or woman? The cries seemed to be coming from the darkened house...? He heard it again...Cat? No. No cat...woman!

Comforting his friend Ralph as Ralph´s wife descends into Alzheimer´s. Thrusting flowers and candy at his son-in-law on a nearly forgotten wedding anniversary. The star of the hit comic strip Crankshaft is a gentle soul stuck in a cantankerous mood.Since 1987, Ed Crankshaft has entertained millions in this strip, which now appears in more than 300 daily and Sunday newspapers. With a supporting cast that includes Ed´s two daughters, Chris and Pam; Pam´s husband, Jeff; and their kids, Max and Mindy; Crankshaft appeals to families everywhere who steadfastly deal with intergenerational cares and conflicts. As one critic said: ´´Crankshaft is a witty, thoughtful commentary on the trials and tribulations of today´s senior citizens.´´But, of course, Crankshaft is so much more. The strip´s approach to Alzheimer´s generated countless letters and e-mails, as did Crankshaft´s near-death illness. Hilarious and clever, honest and moving, Crankshaft both keeps readers laughing at the curmudgeon´s pranks and pondering life´s real meaning. It´s a balancing act that´s rarely attempted in the comics-and with Crankshaft, it works admirably. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil2) ansehen oder für EUR 7.99 bestellen! |
