This is Anny's story of desertion, heart break, and panic. A single mother and her young son Randy must make their way to what ever lies ahead. This is a story of a mother bonding with her son in adverse conditions; while trying to survive. A drama of morals, ethics, and compassion finds its way though out this book. The single mother's illusion of trust and security is removed when her husband dissolves the marriage and leaves. The mother and her twelve year son are left to fend for themselves. All their earthy belongings fit into a suitcase, and two black garbage bags. In the bleak situation a hidden talent comes forth, which renews her hope, and self worth.Zum Buch

“The poems are so deliciously bad that they’re fun . . . it might just be that there’s a little bit of serious poetry play giggling behind the scenes.” —Los Angeles Times Forget Shakespeare. Don’t count on Donne. Shelley and Keats: banished! And there’s absolutely no poet laureate from the golden or any other age. So fawning PhDs in love with little-understood verses by long-dead writers should go elsewhere. This is poetry for the rest of us—bad poetry! Pamela Russell’s unexalted (but thoroughly hysterical) poems mock, chide, accuse, tease, joke, undermine, point, and laugh at the world around us—and at anything that takes itself too seriously. Her non-canonical oeuvre includes: Tea for Two (A Tragedy); Nietzsche and the Ice-Cream Truck; Capitalism Can Fall Not Like I Fell for You; Inappropriately Touched by an Angel; Love Is Like a Toilet Bowl; and many more.Zum Buch
