Sinopsis

Growing up in an abusive, poverty-stricken family in Appalachia, John Wagner seemed born with suffering in his blood. No matter how his circumstances changed, he was constantly drawn to tragedy. Escaping his grisly childhood, John took with him the most important lesson his mother ever taught him: that if you’re still breathing, you’re still fighting. In the midst of addiction, betrayal, and mental illness, John struggled to build a legacy of strong family values, stability, and love.  The cycle of abuse is hard to watch, and even harder to break. Despite the demons John brought into their everyday existence, the Wagner family grew and evolved. Together they learned that to truly experience joy, they also had to survive times of unspeakable pain. Join this family as they find the will to keep fighting for themselves, taking one step forward even after taking three steps back. When I’m 64 focuses on the possibility of hope that lives within us all and guides us through the darkest hours and into the light.

    An illuminating and witty dialogue with one of the greatest intellectual figures of the twentieth century. Ramin Jahanbegloo's interview with Isaiah Berlin grew into a series of five conversations which offer an intimate view of Berlin and his ideas. They include discussions on pluralism and liberty as well as the thinkers and writers who influenced Berlin. This revised edition provided an excellent introduction to Berlin's thought. Ramin Jahanbegloo is an Iranian philosopher, who has taught in Europe and North America. In 2006 he was imprisoned for several months in Iran. He is currently teaching Political Philosophy at Toronto University. 'Though like Our Lord and Socrates he does not publish much, he thinks and says a great deal and has had an enormous influence on our times'. Maurice Bowra 'Berlin never talks down to the interviewer. Conversations here means the minds of the interviewed and interviewer meet on equal terms in language that is transparently clear, informed, witty and entertaining'. Stephen Spender 'He is wise without seeming pompous, witty without seeming trivial, affectionate without seeming sentimental'. Michael Ignatieff 'Isaiah Berlin... has for fifty years in this talkative and quarrelsome city (Oxford) been something special, admired by all and disliked by no-one... a benevolent super-don'.
