The Half-Known Life: What Matters Most When You’re Running Out of Time

About The Half-Known Life: What Matters Most When You’re Running Out of Time:

“I’m going down now,” I said to a young woman a few seconds before the darkness-my first cardiac arrest. As I returned to work as a behavioral coach, it became maddening to hear about all-consuming, everyday problems and misguided priorities while I fought to merely remain conscious.

The Half-Known Life challenges conventional thinking of success, identity, and personal change. Most often, truly profound change happens following events that shake someone to their core-a car accident, death of a family member, or cardiac arrest that pulls them into a moment of clarity. Priorities change when time becomes precious. Problems look different when you have no energy left to give them. Why wait until you’re burnt out or for a life-changing event to occur before getting real about your life? Who are you when all of the accolades and accomplishments are gone? What does how you manage your time say about what’s important to you-about what matters most? Get out of your head and get into your life, before it slips away.

The Night at Times Square

About The Night at Times Square:

Rhiannon Broderick grew up knowing New York City as one word: home. That is, until her world comes crashing down, leaving her with no love-of-her-life and no best-friend-forever. Even her parents have no idea how to deal with their daughter. With one last hope, Mom and Dad take drastic measures: sending her to live with Aunt Vicky on the outskirts of Cleveland, Ohio.

That’s okay for Rhiannon, though. The fewer people, the better. With her graduation happening soon – only 270 days and counting – she plans to travel far away in isolation where no one knows where she is.

But on the first day of Hawkens Academy, she meets a boy.

For Austin Chang, his life is all about smooth sailing: bashes at his mansion, the ladies drooling over him, and the swim team where he’s the best swimmer in his league. With little effort, he comes in first place every time at the butterfly stroke. Sure, he may think it’s lonely, and sure, he doesn’t know what to do once he graduated high school, but he’ll treat every weekend, every party, and every day like it’s his last.

But on the first day of his senior year, at the end of his era, he meets a girl.

Town and Country: Voices from the Mid-Ohio Valley by Carl Parsons

Town and Country: Voices from the Mid-Ohio Valley by Carl Parsons

Town and Country presents a set of ten short stories set in a generally neglected and sometimes maligned part of America—the Mid-Ohio Valley, part of Appalachia yet also part of the Midwest. The region has been home to the historic Burr-Blennerhassett Conspiracy and America’s first oil fields.
It is also the home to many wonderful people who were neither famous nor infamous, just human in the fullest sense–ordinary people struggling with a variety of problems that threaten to change their lives: an elderly widower confronting a life of regrets, precocious children forced into separation, a middle-aged couple facing the loss of their generations-old general store, and many others. I have tried to give a cross-section of their stories in their own voices—some tragic, some comic, some romantic, some nostalgic, and one or two utterly sentimental.

The Ibbur’s Tale by Lenny Abelson

The Ibbur’s Tale by Lenny Abelson

Professor BENJAMIN Dinerstein is more than a little surprised to find someone in his home when he returns from class. As he notes, “I was even more startled, because I realized that she was one of my former students. However, I was far more taken aback when I remembered that she had died a few weeks earlier.”

MIRIAM explains that she is an ibbur. She has come to seek his assistance with the task, a last mitzvah (good deed), she was unable to complete in her short lifetime.

The skeptical professor soon finds himself drawn into a remarkable family saga that began in a shtetl on the outskirts of the Austro-Hungarian Empire shortly before World War One. Miriam’s family has been unaware of a scandal: the sister of Miriam’s great-grandmother had an illegitimate child. Moreover, her Uncle Isidore (aka “IKE”) has stumbled upon evidence that this child might somehow have become a Nazi war criminal, and that the entire family may be in grave danger.

Another character looms over the narrative: a mysterious old woman seen clutching a tarot deck wrapped in a handkerchief. Who is she — and what is she?

Can Benjamin help the ibbur resolve the mystery. More importantly, can they overcome a curse?
