Sour: My Story - Part 2 of 3
Sour: My Story - Part 2 of 3
Tracey Miller,Lucy Bannerman
¥40.52
Sour can either be read as a full-length eBook or in 3 serialised eBook-only parts. This is PART 1 of 3. They call me Sour. The opposite of sweet. Shanking, stabbing, steaming, robbing, I did it all, rolling with the Man Dem. I did it because I was bad. I did it because I had heart. And the reason I reckon I got away with it for so long? Because I was a girl. SOUR is the true story of a former Brixton gang girl, drug dealer and full-time criminal. A member of the Younger 28s, a notorious gang that terrorised the postcodes around Brixton in the 90s, Sour escapes a troubled family life to immerse herself in the street life of likking and linking. She never leaves her house without a knife. At the age of fifteen, she stabs an innocent man in the street, earning her unrivalled respect and ‘Top-Dog’ status amongst her crew. She believes she is invincible. But the consequences of her actions are soon to catch up with her. Waking for the second time in two weeks in a hospital bed, to the news that she is pregnant, she realises it’s time to turn her life around. Motherhood will be a rude awakening, but it may also be her saving grace. Told with raw emotions and ferocious honesty, this is the real, on-the-record, story of one woman’s descent down the rabbit hole of gangland, and her efforts, as a daughter, mother and girlfriend, to claw herself out.

Casey Watson
¥40.52
Bestselling author and foster carer Casey Watson shares the shocking true story of Tyler, an abused eleven-year-old who, after stabbing his step-mother, had nowhere else to go. Knowing a little of Tyler’s past – his biological mother, a heroin addict, died of an overdose when he was three – Casey feels bound to do her best for him. It isn’t easy; Tyler continuously lashes out, even trying to attack Casey herself. Investigation into his earlier childhood reveals why: forced to watch his mother die he was found emaciated and traumatised two days later, then delivered to a father who didn’t want him and a step-mother who beat him. With the horrific events of his past now vividly affecting the course of his present, Casey and her husband Mike are determined to veer him away from the violence and drugs they fear he will come to depend on. Heartbreaking and profoundly moving, Nowhere to Go tells the story of a child forsaken by his family but fought for by his foster carers.

Am nceput s scriu pentru c aa am simit chemarea. E la fel ca preoia: devii pstor de suflete pentru c ai trimitere de sus, de la Tata. Aa s-a croit i destinul meu. Probabil c obria mea flticenean e de vin. n acest loc binecuvntat am crescut i am primit educaie. colile, dasclii, istoria literar a oraului – nesat de nume mari i sonore, care au trecut i trit pe aici – mi-au creat creuzetul. Mai departe a trebuit s muncesc singur, ca un rob, pe aceast plantaie plin ochi de litere, cuvinte i fraze. Aa am fost, sunt i voi rmne: un ego ce intersecteaz anii pe orizontal i vertical, aducndu-mi i eu, la rndul meu, contribuia pe care un ora minunat, numit Flticeni, mi-o cere. Mark Twain spunea: Dou zile sunt importante n viaa unui om: ziua n care s-a nscut i ziua n care a aflat de ce. Tu, cititorule, ai aflat” (Romulus Andriescu)

In the South Seas
Robert Louis Stevenson

For nearly ten years my health had been declining; and for some while before I set forth upon my voyage, I believed I was come to the afterpiece of life, and had only the nurse and undertaker to expect. It was suggested that I should try the South Seas; and I was not unwilling to visit like a ghost, and be carried like a bale, among scenes that had attracted me in youth and health. I chartered accordingly Dr. Merrit’s schooner yacht, the Casco, seventy-four tons register; sailed from San Francisco towards the end of June 1888, visited the eastern islands, and was left early the next year at Honolulu.
