Lit: A Memoir
LitĀ follows Mary Karr’s descent into the inferno of alcoholism and madness – and her astonishing resurrection. Karr’s longing for a solid family seems secure when her marriage to a handsome, Shakespeare-quoting poet produces a son they adore. But she can’t outrun her apocalyptic past. She drinks herself into the same numbness that nearly devoured her charismatic but troubled mother, reaching the brink of suicide. A hair-raising stint in “The Mental Marriott” awakens her to the possibility of joy, and leads her to an unlikely faith.
Lit is about getting drunk and getting sober; becoming a mother by letting go of a mother; learning to write by learning to live. It is a truly electrifying story of how to grow up – as only Mary Karr can tell it.

Becoming Attached
The struggle to understand the parent-child bond ranks as one of the great quests of modern psychology, one that touches us deeply because it holds so many clues to how we become who we are. How are our personalities formed? How do our early struggles with our parents reappear in the way we relate to others as adults?
InĀ Becoming Attached, Robert Karen offers fresh insight into some of the most fundamental issues of emotional life. He explores such questions as:
* What do children need to feel that the world is a positive place and that they have value?
* What are the risks of day care for children under one year of age, and what can parents do to manage those risks?
* What experiences in infancy will enable a person to develop healthy relationships as an adult?Becoming AttachedĀ is not just a voyage of discovery in child emotional development and its pertinence to adult life but a voyage of personal discovery as well, for it is impossible to read this book without reflecting on one’s own life as a child, a parent, and an intimate partner in love or marriage.

Time To Get Tough
For the first time in his own words, President-elect Donald J. Trump explains his plan to make America great again! He wants to Āput Americaās interests firstĀand that means doing whatās right for our economy, our national security, and our public safety.ā
Throughout the 2016 campaign, Trump conjured images of American strength and culture when small towns boomed with industry, mom and pop shops bustled, and people said, ĀMerry Christmas!ā
The media scoffed at Trumpās vision and the people who supported him; they were blinded by the Clinton machine. But their eyes were opened after Trump won 62 million votes and the Oval Office. Even Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan said, ĀDonald Trump heard a voice in this country that no one else heard.ā As Trump says inĀ Time to Get Tough, ĀIāve built businesses across the globe. Iāve dealt with foreign leaders. Iāve created tens of thousands of American jobs. My whole life has been about executing deals and making real moneyĀmassive money. Thatās what I do for a living: make big things happenĀ ā
Trump is about to make the biggest deals of his life, and heās going to make them for America! From reversing lax immigration policies to eliminating regulations that restrict small businesses, Donald Trump understands that America Ādoesnāt need cowardice, it needs courage.ā
President Elect Trump is about to ĀMake America Great Againā andĀ Time to Get ToughĀ is his blueprint
