Summary:
The moment the car hit her, everything changed for Charlotte Roach. Out on a training ride with other Olympic hopefuls, elite athletes all of them, Charlotte was just 21 years old, with the dream of making the GB triathlon team. Now, as she lay on the tarmac with a broken back, waiting for the air ambulance, she was drifting in and out of consciousness, fighting for her life.
Nearly two years later, Charlotte sat on her bike in China, waiting for the sun to rise. Ahead of her was a journey that would span 10,000 kilometers. Her plan was as simple as it was daunting: cycle from Beijing to London in a roughly straight line over six long, arduous months.
A Long Ride Home interweaves the story of Charlotte's recovery with the bike ride in all its triumph and challenge. It is a story of the dedication it takes to follow a dream and the depths of perseverance needed when that dream is broken by misfortune. Most of all it is the story of a woman and her bike and of the healing and redemption found on two wheels.

It was a blood oath between best friends.
As Sergeant Brett Wood prepared for a third tour of Afghanistan, he made fellow commando Jamie Zimmermann promise to take care of his wife and financial affairs should the worst unfold. When Brett was killed two months later, it tore two worlds apart.
The Promise is the extraordinary story of two mates, Jamie and Brett, each with two families the family at home and the brotherhood that bonds military servicemen in times of war. It charts Jamie's evolution from a bullied boy in the suburbs to an elite soldier and team leader with the 2nd Commando Regiment of Australia's special forces, waging war in Timor, Iraq and Afghanistan.
As Jamie and Brett face ever more dangerous missions, the pressures intensify on the home front. Marriages crack, families fracture and the aftershocks of combat fatigue threaten both men's lives. After Brett's death, Jamie watches all certainty slip away. He commits mind and body to the one thing he can control: he will honour his friend; he will keep his promise.

Drmmen om at n toppen af Mount Everest og f den store, livsfarlige oplevelse er staerk hos mange mennesker. Og nogle er villige til at betale store belb for at n deres drmmes ml - drmme der kan blive til mareridt, hvis ulykken slr ned.

Jake Gyllenhaal og Keira Knightley, mens Krakauer spilles af Michael Kelly, kendt fra tv-serien HOUSE OF CARDS.

Title: Stray Bullet
Author: Gary Rivlin
Narrator: Gary Rivlin
Format: Unabridged
Length: 1 hr and 14 mins
Language: English
Release date: 07-23-13
Publisher: The Atavist
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
It was the most mundane of arguments, teenagers fighting over a stolen bicycle and bruised egos on a hot summer evening in one of the worst neighborhoods in Oakland, California. No one was supposed to get hurt, not seriously. But by the end of the night, a 13-year-old boy was lying dead in the street from a gunshot wound, and Tony Davis, the 18-year-old drug dealer and small-time thug who had fired the gun from the backseat of his friend's car, was on his way to a life in prison.
Journalist Gary Rivlin met Davis in 1993, three years after the shooting, when he was reporting on the epidemic of urban youth crime in which Davis had been a grim statistic. Over the years that followed, the two kept in touch, and a funny thing happened: Davis stopped being Rivlin's subject and became his friend. In Stray Bullet, Rivlin tells the story of their two-decade friendship and Davis's attempt to come to terms with his own actions and turn his life around in prison: his religious awakening, his quest for education, and his unlikely marriage to a woman he had only ever seen through the Plexiglas of the prison visiting room. At once devastating and inspiring, Stray Bullet is the story of one man's fight to cling to hope inside of a criminal justice system that seems bent on extinguishing it.

Résumé:
Inclassable et fédérateur, adulé et méprisé, célèbre et discret... Tel est le paradoxe Goldman. La star de la chanson française a toujours préféré l'ombre rassurante de l'anonymat à la lumière artificielle et trompeuse des spotlights.

Fruit de douze mois d'un véritable travail journalistique, Le mystère Goldman retrace son parcours intime avec quantité de témoignages et documents inédits (ses blessures secrètes, son histoire familiale tourmentée, le culte du secret, son rapport à l'argent...) et explore la carrière et la vie d'une personnalité moins lisse que certains veulent le croire !

Dix ans après sa "retraite" loin des fastes du show-biz, si ce n'est son engagement sans faille aux côtés des Enfoirés, son public continue de le réclamer...

Alors en attendant son retour, Le mystère Goldman lève enfin le voile sur l'énigmatique JJG.

Language: English
Release date: 05-02-17
Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Ltd
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
From American master Richard Ford, a memoir: his first work of nonfiction, a stirring narrative of memory and parental love.
How is it that we come to consider our parents as people with rich and intense lives that include but also exclude us? Richard Ford's parents - Edna, a feisty, pretty Catholic-school girl with a difficult past; and Parker, a sweet-natured, soft-spoken traveling salesman - were rural Arkansans born at the turn of the 20th century. Married in 1928, they lived "alone together" on the road, traveling throughout the South. Eventually they had one child, born late, in 1944.
For Ford, the questions of what his parents dreamed of, how they loved each other and loved him become a striking portrait of American life in the midcentury. Between Them is his vivid image of where his life began and where his parents' lives found their greatest satisfaction.
Bringing his celebrated candor, wit, and intelligence to this most intimate and mysterious of landscapes - our parents' lives - the award-winning storyteller and creator of the iconic Frank Bascombe delivers an unforgettable exploration of memory, intimacy, and love.

Publisher: Book Publishers Network
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
Gradually going blind in his 20s, Rich Ruffalo refused to face reality. And then, one rainy evening, unable to make sense of the road before him, he suddenly felt his car thud against a little girl.
Jolted into reality, Ruffalo refused to be knocked down and, instead, put his all into achieving. As a teacher he excelled, winning the Princeton University Distinguished Secondary School Teacher of the Year Award and Disney's Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award.
Then, he set the bar even higher. Competing in the Paralympics, he aimed to medal in three field events. With focus and determination, he achieved his goal - and then some. Ruffalo won bronze, silver, and gold medals, earned worlds titles, set nine world records, and even won championships against sighted athletes.
Sometimes humorous, always insightful, Ruffalo's heartfelt Ruff Road to Glory demonstrates that there are infinite possibilities for everyone. Ruffalo inspires each one of use to persevere, regardless of our circumstances. With faith in God, ourselves, and the unlimited potential of the human spirit, we will triumph. We too can grasp the gold.

Summary:
"Den verden, jeg her beskriver, eksisterede for mere end et halvt hundrede r siden, og mange af de mennesker, som beboede den, lever ikke lngere. I de mellemliggende r har jeg lrt at vrdstte livets gave og har gennem venskaber og krlighedsforhold fet jnene op for min amerikansk-katolske barndoms velsignelser og begrnsninger. I 1976 opgav jeg mit amerikanske statsborgerskab og omfavnede med stor iver ikke bare dansk indfdsret, men ogs dansk identitet. Den dag i dag bliver jeg ilde til mode, nr nogen kalder mig amerikaner, for jeg er dansker eller i det mindste amerikansk-dansker. Jeg er imidlertid gradvist blevet opmrksom p, at den selvcentrerede nationalisme og overlegenhedsflelse, som jeg troede at have lagt bag mig i USA, trives stadig bedre i mit adopterede land."

Amerikansk fdte professor emeritus Brian Patrick McGuire fortller om sin barndom i "en katolsk ghetto" som et barn i en brneflok p ni. Heksejagt p kommunister, usynlige sorte tjenestefolk, nonner med englerst og San Francisco49ers var en del af Brian Patrick McGuires barndom og af det land, der i dag er s forandret, at det nsten ikke er til at kende.

Brian Patrick McGuire (f. 1946) er professor emeritus i historie. Han blev dansk statsborger i 1976 og har blandt andet modtaget PH-prisen og Retspolitisk Forenings Pris for sit arbejde med flygtninge.

Summary:
The world stopped for America on September 11, 2001, the day of the worst terrorist attack ever on U.S. soil. It was also the day America showed its true colors. Firefighters, police officers, paramedics, and EMTs sped to the scene. Concerned more about others' safety than their own, they raced into the very buildings workers were fleeing from. Hundreds gave their lives so that others might live. Thousands of others put their lives at risk, day after day, working under dangerous conditions in the round-the-clock search for survivors. But the heroism sparked by the horrific events of that day does not stop there. It spans the country, indeed the globe, and Heroes tells the stories of the men, women, and children who stepped up to help. Most were ordinary citizens who saw what needed to be done and did it. Selfless concern for others links the fifty uplifting stories in these pages, stories of ordinary Americans who made heroic choices under the most terrifying circumstances and gave inspiration with their generosity and willingness to serve, stories that show definitively that the American spirit cannot be diminished but rather grows stronger and brighter in the face of adversity.

"Je me souviens d'un jour où les palmiers dégoulinaient de pluie. On ne distinguait plus le ciel de la mer. Une buée générale où tout semblait perdu. Je découvrais ma mère, assise sur une chaise, seule au milieu du salon. Elle regardait ses pieds, sans doute depuis longtemps. 'Maman, qu'est-ce que tu as ?' Et sa voix très basse, l'ombre de sa voix : 'Rien. Il pleut, je suis juive' et j'ai pensé 'Je ne pardonnerai pas.' Je me trompais. Ou presque." (Viviane Forrester)

Langue: Français

Éditeur: des femmes
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Résumé:
Composition intimiste, Hammerklavier joue une partition où se dévoilent des notes fulgurantes : brefs instants de vie, fragments autobiographiques, anecdotes, rêves et souvenirs. Avec le style incisif qui est le sien, l'auteure met en musique et en scène, dans de courts textes, comiques ou tendres, ses préoccupations singulières sur l'art, la judéité, le temps qui passe... Autant de chapitres, autant de mélodies distinctes. Avec Hammerklavier, Yasmina Reza quitte le théâtre pour le récit, sans rien perdre de sa force dramatique ni de l'acuité de son regard.

"Il n'y a pas longtemps, j'ai regardé mon fils, un soir, de dos, il avait deux ans. Il jouait et je regardais sa nuque et ses petits cheveux noirs bouclés et j'ai pensé au vieux monsieur qu'il sera avec ses cheveux, petits-fils serrés gris, courts mais encore un peu ondulés, très doux, un vieux monsieur que je ne verrai jamais."

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
At the grand old age of 92, my mother Dot suddenly starts telling me that she loves me. I am quite dumbstruck at these outbursts of emotion, as she has never mentioned the fact before in all of my 58 years. Over the entire course of my lifetime we have often argued bitterly, and have never really seen eye-to-eye over anything. I squirm with the inner knowledge that she wants me to reply in a similar vein, but try as I might, I cannot.
The guilt I feel at being unable to grant Dot her wish is overwhelming. As Dot's health deteriorates more towards the final chapters of her life, I take on the role of carer. I find the only way to bring her out of her perpetual misery is to reminisce on past events by showing her old family photographs, and by helping her to remember holidays and happier times. We look back without anger and sometimes with a lot of laughter, getting to know each other better, raking over the past, and talking more than we have ever done. The process helps me, a middle-aged woman, understand the perils of aging that I might one day face, and also the struggles that elderly people suffer on a day-to-day basis while stoically attempting to maintain their independence.
This is a true story, told in flashbacks and in modern-day often humorous conversations with my mother.

'How do you say thank you to someone for giving you their heart? It is the greatest gift a person can ever give.'
Marc is a promising young footballer of 15, growing up in Scotland. A few hundred miles away in England, Martin is a fun-loving 16-year-old. Both are enjoying their summers when they are suddenly struck down by debilitating illnesses. Within days, the boys are close to death.
Although their paths have never crossed, their fortunes are about to be bound in the most extraordinary, intimate way. One of them will die, and in doing so he will save the other's life.
This is a deeply powerful and dramatic story. It is extremely rare for the family of a donor to have any personal contact with the recipient of their loved one's organ. Yet remarkably, the mothers of these two boys meet and become friends, enabling the extraordinary, bittersweet moment in which a mother who has lost her son meets the boy he saved. Reaching out and placing her palm flat against his chest, she feels the heart of her son beating away inside another. Her boy, the boy who gave his heart away.

Summary:
It was a Friday afternoon and the traffic was very busy in a normally quiet part of northwest Wisconsin. Cops were everywhere and had their lights turned on. "What is going on?" he thought to himself. Then, he remembered that a local deputy sheriff had been shot and killed. This was a long funeral procession that Rusk County Deputy Sheriff, Dan Glaze, Jr. had in his honor. The streets of Rice Lake, Wisconsin would be packed for quite a while. Officers attended the event from as far away as Lake Delton, Wisconsin, over a three-hour drive from the Wisconsin Dells area. How could all of these officers afford to be away from their hometown? It was hard to imagine such a funeral procession unless you were there to observe it.

Summary:
KISS är mer än ett rockband, mer än en bombastisk scenshow. Bandet är en institution som med sin musik, framtanda och spektakulära uttryck har pverkat och influerat miljontals människor och musiker världen över. Deras melodiösa hrdrock i kombination med det ikoniska sminket gör dem till hjältar för generation efter generation.

r 2013 fyller bandet fyrtio r. Sedan starten 1973 har de slt runt 100 miljoner skivor och gjort över 2,000 spelningar.

"KISS - Den osminkade sanningen" är en av de mest detaljerade och ärliga levnadsteckningar som har gjorts om det mytomspunna bandet. Här ryms sväl succéer och bottennapp som inre slitningar och maktspel. Men framför allt är det berättelsen om fyra killar frn New York som tog sin vision längre än ngot annat band ngonsin gjort.

Förordet är skrivet och inläst av Andreas Carlsson, Kissfrälst hitmakare och entreprenör.

Language: English
Release date: 07-10-13
Publisher: Arnold J. Meagher
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
Arnold Meagher was born in a small village in the heart of Ireland, Ballinamuck in the County of Longford. When he was four, he moved with his family to the larger village of Drumlish, four-and-a-half miles away. It is in the larger village that his stories of growing up in Ireland's heartland begin: among villagers who loved to chat, among dew-covered pastures on his grandmother's farm and among the fairy forts and whispering bogs that dot the countryside.
He tells of his joys and fears. His joys were many and often trumped his fears. These stories, told with a child's innocence and candor, paint a portrait of the heartland that uplifts and swells the Irish heart with pride.
Ireland, My Ireland deals with a rural Ireland of the 1940s and a way of living that is rapidly disappearing, but lives on in the stories that Irish men and women of that generation, scattered around the world, pass on to their children and grandchildren. This book is part of that storytelling tradition.

Die opulente Hörspiel-Dokumentation beleuchtet bekannte und weniger bekannte Stationen des bewegten Lebens Arthur Conan Doyles und lässt auch seine berühmteste Ermittlerfigur - Sherlock Holmes - selbst zu Wort kommen.

Résumé:
Neuf femmes - neuf muses - font l'objet d'un portrait dans la galerie privée, intime, de Jean-Paul Enthoven. Huit femmes célèbres... et une rencontre amoureuse, relation intime qui vient clore une série de mythes au féminin. Quel homme, enfin ne serait pas effrayé à l'idée de rencontrer sa dernière femme ?

"Les quelques femmes que je rassemble ici n'ont eu, pour l'essentiel, qu'une existence imaginaire dans ma vie. Le plus souvent elles y ont surgi à leur guise, en des circonstances diverses, comme autant de figures avec lesquelles j'avais d'étranges rendez-vous. Peu importe qu'elles m'aient d'abord déplu ou séduit, lassé ou diverti. Ce qui me trouble, en revanche, c'est que leur manière de s'insinuer dans mon esprit, puis de s'y imposer, ne fut jamais fortuite." (Jean-Paul Enthoven, La dernière femme)

Er veränderte das christlich geprägte Abendland wie kaum ein Zweiter: Martin Luther. Seine Theologie, seine Thesen und Abhandlungen haben Kirchen- und Kulturgeschichte geschrieben. Doch nicht nur der konfessionelle Reformator tritt in seinen Schriften ans Licht, auch der Mensch Luther - fröhlich, ernsthaft, traurig, leidenschaftlich und kritisch. Etwa, wenn er an seine Familie schreibt, seine berühmten Tischreden hält oder Fabeln verschriftlicht.

Das unterhaltsame und zugleich zum Nachdenken anregende Hörbuch zeigt den Facettenreichtum des großen Geistes Martin Luthers und wird nuancenreich gelesen von Hans Paetsch.

On ouvre le cœur du pli, c'est là qu'est le génie. [...] La beauté d'un seul pli là où il ne devrait pas être comme la mémoire avec tous les plis d'avant qui se sont posés là en attente. Et puis un pli précis pas un godet ni une fronce qui sont bâtards, qui sont là par hasard. Mais ces plis infinis qui gardent leur mystère, qui s'inclinent comme le pli qu'on porte sur un plateau avec un cachet rouge."

Length: 4 hrs and 28 mins
Language: English
Release date: 07-18-13
Publisher: New Street Communications, LLC
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
James Capuano's BEAST delivers the author's highly idiosyncratic, inspiring and informative take on his diagnosis of Stage IV colon cancer, and his long journey to remission.
The book is sure to provide entertaining reassurance to others diagnosed with cancer in its various forms, as well as those who care about and for them.
"Here's something crazy for you," writes Capuano. "There's a kind of thrill that goes along with the uncertainty of a late stage diagnosis. Granted, my initial reaction wasn't: 'Boy, this is kind of exciting.' But as I wandered a little further down the road, it hit me: There's something about being in the general vicinity of death that brings you back to life. It snaps you right out of complacency. Suddenly, every thought counts, every action. You can't put off until tomorrow anymore. Things became crystal clear and my mind so sharp I could have slayed the Beast with just once glance."
In the end, his message is this: No matter how hopeless or dire a situation may seem, nothing is inevitable, and the will - no, the conviction - to fight counts for a hell of a lot.

Éditeur: des femmes
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Résumé:
À écouter le récit bouleversant de sa vie et de ses combats, à force de courage et de ténacité, on sait que rien ne peut arrêter Élise Boghossian, petite-fille de réfugiés arméniens. Elle a 30 ans, trois enfants et un cabinet d'acupuncture à Paris quand, en 2011, elle décide de partir en Jordanie et au nord de l'Irak pour soigner, avec ses seules aiguilles, les populations civiles et les réfugiés victimes de la guerre. Elle dit :
"Tout me comble à Paris. Ma famille, ma vie professionnelle, mes amis, et pourtant quelque chose manque pour donner du relief à tout ça. Un engagement, un travail à accomplir sur un terrain où il n'y aurait rien, où je serais forcément utile. J'ai envie d'être plus près des soubresauts du monde où s'écrit l'Histoire. Et sans prétention voir comment je peux à ma mesure diminuer la souffrance de ceux qui en sont les victimes."

Malgré les premières réticences qu'elle rencontre, elle réussit très vite à convaincre soignants et blessés des bienfaits de son savoir car les résultats sont là : l'acupuncture apaise les douleurs post opératoires, celles des amputés, des grands brûlés et des enfants. Élise transforme alors son combat solitaire en une mission humanitaire pérenne. Elle forme des équipes sur place et lève des fonds en France pour créer des dispensaires mobiles. Elle constate que la grande majorité des victimes de guerre réfugiées en Irak vivent hors des camps et n'ont pas accès aux soins. Des milliers de familles sont réduites à l'état de mendicité, les femmes et les filles sont vendues comme esclaves sexuelles, les enfants ont vécu dans la terreur de l'enlèvement. Grâce à des médecins, infirmiers, pharmaciens, chauffeurs qu'elle recrute parmi les réfugiés, son camion-dispensaire et son "bus des femmes" partent à la rencontre de ces populations en souffrance.

Témoin de l'horreur, de l'injustice, du quotidien des réfugiés sur les zones de conflit, Élise Boghossian raconte surtout une aventure humaine, avec autant de force que d'espoir pour décrire l'innommable. Et la conviction intime que la vie l'emporte toujours.

Une femme est une autobiographie romancée, dans un style sobre, d'une réserve classique traversée d'effusions lyriques. Déchirée entre un amour passion pour son père brillant et séducteur et une pitié terrifiée pour sa mère trompée qui, peu à peu, sombre dans la folie, la narratrice lutte pour conquérir son indépendance intellectuelle et affective contre un mari brutal et veule, contre un milieu provincial superstitieux et étriqué. Ce sera au prix du renoncement à son fils qu'elle deviendra une femme libre et active.

Zusammenfassung:
Der 1937 in Den Haag geborene Sinto Zoni Weisz muss als Kind miterleben, wie seine Eltern und seine Geschwister von den Nazis deportiert werden, er selbst kann dank der Hilfe eines niederländischen Polizisten in letzter Minute gemeinsam mit seiner Tante entkommen. Seine Eltern und seine Geschwister werden allesamt ermordet.

Nach dem Krieg beendet Weisz die Schule und wird Florist - schließlich sogar einer der wichtigsten Repräsentanten der niederländischen Floristik. So erstellt er etwa das größte Blumenarrangement der Welt und erhält dafür einen Eintrag in das Guinnessbuch der Rekorde. Die niederländische Königin Beatrix ernennt Zoni Weisz zum Offizier des Ordens von Oranien-Nassau. Seit vielen Jahren bemüht sich Weisz, der lange über seine Vergangenheit geschwiegen hatte, um die Erinnerung an die Opfer des Nationalsozialismus und engagiert sich sehr für die Wahrnehmung der Rechte von Sinti und Roma in Europa. Am 27. Januar 2011 hielt Zoni Weisz als erster Vertreter der Sinti und Roma eine viel beachtete Rede vor dem Deutschen Bundestag anlässlich des Tags des Gedenkens an die Opfer des Nationalsozialismus.

In dem Hörbuch erzählt Zoni Weisz ohne Skript aus seinem Leben. Er spricht über seine Eltern und seine Geschwister, über das freie Leben im Pferdewagen, über die Angst während der Besatzungszeit, über seine Zeit als Lehrling und das Wunder der Pflanzenwelt sowie über sein politisches Engagement. So entsteht ein vielschichtiges Porträt dieses ganz besonderen Menschen.

Publisher: Audible Studios
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
A Book of Untruths is a family story told through a series of lies. Each short chapter features one of these lies, and each lie builds to form a picture of a life - Miranda Doyle's life as she struggles to understand her complicated family and her own place within it.
This is a book about love, family and marriage. It is about the fallibility of human beings and the terrible things we do to one another. It is about the ways we get at - or avoid - the truth. And it is about storytelling itself: how we build a sense of ourselves and our place in the world.
A Book of Untruths is a surprising, shocking and invigorating book that edges towards the truth through an engagement with falsehood. It brings questions, not answers.

Release date: 03-09-17
Publisher: Macmillan Digital Audio
Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Summary:
As a boy growing up on the south coast of England, Howard Cunnell's sense of self was dominated by his father's absence. Now, years later, he is a father, and his daughter is becoming his son. Starting with his own childhood in the Sussex beachlands, Howard tells the story of the years of self-destruction that defined his young adulthood and the escape he found in reading and the natural world. Still he felt compelled to destroy the relationships that mattered to him. Saved by love and responsibility, Cunnell charts his journey from anger to compassion as his daughter, Jay, realizes he is a boy and a son. Most of all, this is a story about love - its necessity and fragility and its unequalled capacity to enable us to be who we are. Deeply thoughtful, searingly honest and exquisitely lyrical, Fathers and Sons is an exploration of fatherhood, masculinity, authenticity and family.

Summary:
First Mike. Then Maxine. The inspiring story of the heartrending descent of this husband and wife into the abyss of Alzheimer's unfolds in a series of poignant interrelated essays. This is a moving personal story of their family recorded by their daughter Jan over a period of a quarter of a century as they journeyed together on a struggle that is simultaneously universal but uniquely theirs.
Set in rural Arkansas where the hot, dusty rows of crops and the deep, starry summer nights define existence, this memoir introduces a young couple in love on the cusp of World War II. Glimpses of their meager but rich lives bring shimmers of light to the darkness of the Alzheimer's experiences. Small victories shared by this extended family in all their quirks and endearing peculiarities add a measure of balance against the heartbreak.
This work brings to the listener an intimate and honest view inside a place that is both strange and familiar. The story introduces people - ordinary people - who reflect hope and despair, people who question, who resist, but in the end who must face the human condition of travel down a road of uncertain destination. And it shines a light on the way this journey shapes the lives of those who travel the same road from afar.
The story of Mike and Maxine matters ultimately because it is a story of triumph - the triumph that comes when brothers and sisters, spouses, sons and daughters, grandchildren, family and friends, when all walk together on that journey none of them wants to take. Theirs is a story of the triumph of learning to recognize and cherish the good that is never far away, of growing stronger as the road stretches on.

Summary:
The daughter of medical missionaries, Elaine Neil Orr was born in Nigeria in 1954, in the midst of the national movement that would lead to independence from Great Britain. But as she tells it in her captivating memoir, Orr did not grow up feeling American, but rather identified with Nigerian culture.
Orr came back to America to attend high school, feeling the loss of Nigeria keenly. It was only in her forties, in the crisis of kidney failure, that she began to recover her African life. In writing Gods of Noonday she came to understand her double-rootedness: in the Christian church and the Yoruba shrine, the piano and the talking drum. Memory took her back from Duke Medical Center in North Carolina to the shores of West Africa and her hometown of Ogbomosho in the land of the Yoruba people.
Interweaving the lush mission compounds with Nigerian culture, furloughs in the American South with boarding school in Nigeria, and eventually Orr's failing health, the narrative builds in intensity as she recognizes that only through recovering her homeland can she find the strength to survive. Taking its place with classics such as Out of Africa and more recent works like The Poisonwood Bibleand Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight, Gods of Noondayis a deeply felt, courageous portrait of a woman's life.
