The beloved Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, basis of the film starring Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep. Francis Phelan, ex-big-leaguer, part-time gravedigger, full-time bum with the gift of gab, is back in town. He left Albany twenty-two years earlier after he dropped his infant son accidentally, and the boy died. Now he's on the way back to the wife and home he abandoned, haunted at every corner by the ghosts of his violent life. Francis; his wino ladyfriend of nine years, Helen; and his stumblebum pal, Rudy, shuffle their ragtag way through the city's bleakest streets, surviving on gumption, muscatel, and black wit. estiny is not their business. 'The premise of Ironweed was so unpromising, that in marketing terms the writer still to this day finds it funny: the story of a bunch of itinerant alcoholics, knocking around Kennedy's hometown, falling out, having visions, trying to pass for sober to cadge a bed for the night in the homeless shelter.' Guardian 'But for all the rich variety of prose and event, from hallucination to bedrock realism to slapstick and to blessed quotidian peace, ''Ironweed'' is more austere than its predecessors. It is more fierce, but also more forgiving.' Quoted from the classic New York Times review of Ironweed, which made it an overnight sensation.

The Homeless of "Ironweed" is both a meditation on Kennedy's remarkable novel and a literary and cultural analysis. Benedict Giamo's explorations of the social conditions, cultural meanings, and literary representations of classic and contemporary homelessness in America and abroad inform his understanding of the literary merit and social resonance of Ironweed. Throughout Giamo remains grounded in a close reading of the novel. He moves with great relevance from Dante to Kenneth Burke, from Sartre to Robert Jay Lifton, to locate meaning and value in the lives of Kennedy's characters; by extension, with intelligence and compassion, he regards the lives of the homeless who wander through our streets and shefters today.

From the time Jeremiah Sims moves to Romley, rumors of Selena Highland poisoning her husband are such a part of the town's fabric, they've been accepted as truth. The beautiful young mistress of Highland House is scorned and reviled by the old Romley stock - a close knit society steeped in prejudice and resentment. One look and Jeremiah knows the town is wrong. He sees a young woman tormented by demons and consumed by a past that won't set her free. It's all in her eyes as she sits by the fire listening to the children spin their tales. The children also know she's innocent of the gossip that surrounds her - and even when sinister incidents begin plaguing the property their loyalty never waivers. This chance meeting will eventually lead Jeremiah to uncover a spiraling path of deceit, secrets and ultimately murder, as he begins to unravel the mysteries of the past to make a shocking discovery. Before it's over, he will be forced to make a choice between what he knows is right, or saving the woman he loves.

Historical Common Names Of Great Plains Plants With Scientific Names Index Volume Ii Scientific Names Index written by Elaine Nowick and has been published by Lulu.com this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2014-10 with Nature categories.
Containing thousands of entries of both vernacular and scientific names of Great Plains plants, the literature that informs this exhaustive listing spans nearly 300 years. Author Elaine Nowick has drawn from sources as diverse as Linnaeus, Lewis and Clark, and local university extension publications to compile the gamut of practical, and often fanciful, common plant names used over the years. Each common name is accompanied by a definitive scientific name with references and authority information. Interspersed with scientifically-correct botanical line drawings, the entries are written in standard ICBN format, making this a useful volume for scholars as well as lay enthusiasts alike. Volume 2 indexes the scientific names of those species, followed by listings of all the common names applied to them. Both volumes refer the common and scientific names back to a list of 190 pertinent authoritative sources.
