Book Print on Demand
Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Full of nostalgia and heart, DeGreg takes us on a very personal journey of coming of age in the tumultuous times of the Sixties and Seventies. Think of a completely honest version of The Wonder Years filled with rock 'n roll, basketball, sex, and lots of easily forgotten truths about growing up.' --Ace Atkins, New York Times Bestselling author of The Redeemers 'Had Holden Caulfield grown up in Rutherford, New Jersey, he might have found the Mountain Way Gang and The Best Feeling in the World. DeGreg's coming-of-age memoir is a reminder of the pitfalls, pratfalls, and endless adventure that's possible right out the front door to an American kid.' -- Mark Strassmann, CBS News '[DeGreg has] a style of writing that is verbally alive--leaping language.makes reading fun.' -- William Davies King, author, Collections of Nothing From The Best Feeling In The World: 'It's funny how you come around to learn things, like sometimes you get exactly what you wanted, but it turns out to be the last thing you needed.' This is the story of a boy named Dego, written by a man called DeGreg; the story of a classic middle class middle child--a baby, then a boy, trying hard to become a man, and f-ing it up along the way. Growing up across the river from New York City has a certain affect on a Jersey boy; though we have no idea what that might be. The fun of it is, it doesn't matter where you grew up, you'll see yourself in these stories. You'll be running through the neighborhood right alongside the kids of the Mountain Way Gang--playing army, baseball, kick-the-can, or whatever else kids dream up when searching for fun, killing time, or chasing after. The Best Feeling In The World. And, what a world it turns out to be, a freaky mess of good and evil, and a whole lot of middle ground. A kaleidoscope of life bombarding the senses, tempting us, scaring us, inspiring us forward. Even the best childhood doesn't last forever and none truly prepares any of us for what might happen next. Sometimes, things get a little hairy. Grade school innocence fades and crazy sexy heartbreaking adolescence rises up. 'I looked at the two-family houses next to us, I wondered if the people who lived there, in those exact houses, knew about this, about intercourse. Did everybody know, except me ' It's a crazy world, crazier still inside the mind of fifteen-year-old having a tough time of it. It's funny how one wrong move can really mess things up, even change a person forever. Chances are Dego's journey is a lot like yours, and altogether different at the same time. We're all chasing after it, whatever it is. It's not the same for everyone, and it might change over time. No matter what it is, you know it when you feel it, it's. The Best Feeling In The World. Get the book. Read it now. The teenager in you will appreciate it, even if you end up flipping yourself off in the process. 320 pp. Englisch.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. We all love to have that perfect phrase for that perfect moment. As Goldwyn Smith once said, Nothing can stand against a really resolute quoter. Find some of the greatest, funniest and most memorable words spoken by Canadians in this easy-to-use collection. I just am a Canadian. It is not a thing which you can escape from. It is like having blue eyes. Robertson Davies What we do should have a Canadian character. Nobody looks his best in somebody else's clothes. Vincent Massey The beginning of Canadian cultural nationalism was not Am I really that oppressed? but Am I really that boring? Margaret Atwood Most Americans don't understand Canadian political parties. Neither do most Canadians. Eric Nicol Where Canadians got the monotone that you're listening to now I don't know - probably from the Canada goose. Northrup Frye I didn't know at first that there were two languages in Canada. I just thought that there was one way to speak to my father and another to speak to my mother. Louis St. Laurent Canada is a country whose main exports are hockey players and cold fronts. Our main imports are baseball players and acid rain.Pierre Trudeau Hudson's Bay is certainly a country that Sinbad the Sailor never saw, as he makes no mention of mosquitoes. David Thompson The Americans are our best friends whether we like it or not. Robert Thomson If some countries have too much history, we have too much geography. William Lyon MacKenzie King.

Manuscript / Paper Collectible
2pp, 12mo. Bifolium, addressed on reverse of second leaf to 'Messs. Cadell & Davies'. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper from mount adhering to one edge. An interesting document, providing an insight into the world of Georgian publishing. Without preamble or salutation, reads: 'This work, in point of style, composition, & sentiment everything, in short, in which the writer's merit is concerned, is much below mediocrity. But whether its subject, & the side it takes in party, might not at the present moment gain it some public favour, is what I cannot answer. The author certainly conceives it to be a happy stroke at the times; & he has done all in his power by a full portion of political bigotry to make it suit its purpose. From the slight examination I have given it, it appears to contain nothing new in a historical view. | J. A.' From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.
