"Like the heart-to-heart conversations you share with your funniest, most honest, most unshockable woman friend, What It's Like to Live Now reveals the intimate details of a singular life as it is lived by a member of a singular generation." "In 1968 Meredith Maran was expelled from the elite Bronx High School of Science for leading protests against the Vietnam War. She was an active member of the generation that pledged to change the world, end injustice, and stay young forever. Today (despite all expectations to the contrary) she is forty-three, with an ex-husband, a lover, two teenage sons, and a mortgage on her dream house at the edge of the Oakland ghetto." "One thing hasn't changed: Meredith is still asking big questions. How do you justify your decision to stay in the inner city when your son wants to carry a knife to junior high to protect himself? How do you create a happy healthy family when nothing in your childhood taught you how - and your new life partner is a woman? How do you keep your heart open when breast cancer and AIDS are attacking your closest friends? And how do you stay true to your hopes for a better world when there's a living to be made and a homeless man at the front gate?" "Happily, Meredith Maran navigates these dilemmas without ever losing her subversive sense of humor. Whether she is challenging the nutritionally correct with her death-by-chocolate birthday cake or agonizing over what kind of nightgown to pack for her first weekend with a woman lover, her eye for life's contradictions is hilariously accurate." "What Its Like to Live Now is a poignant exploration of the gap between the dreams of the sixties and the realities of the nineties - and a reminder that even as youthful idealism goes gray at the temples, life can be lived with love, commitment, and integrity. Reflected in the mirror Meredith Maran holds up to her choices and experiences, you are certain to catch a glimpse of your own."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

So when her father's best friend, Matthew, goes missing from his upstate New York home, Mila and her beloved father travel from London to find him. She collects information about Matthew from his belongings, from his wife and baby, from the dog he left behind and from the ghosts of his past--slowly piecing together the story everyone else has missed.

He was told that his physical limitations would make the study of the martial arts an impossibility... He became a world renowned martial arts master... He was told that he would not be able to walk past his fortieth year... And still HE STANDS... Being a "warrior" is not just about "being able to fight well". Being a warrior is all about being willing to fight for the people and the causes you care about. Being a warrior is all about Loving people. This is a story of the power of Will and the power of LOVE. This is Stoney's message, "We save ourselves by saving the world. We save the world by one kind word, one kind deed, one selfless act... The power of Love holds back the gates of Hell. What is Hell, if not the place where there is no LOVE? I remember the first thing I ever said about Larry Stone... "That guy doesn't know he is handicapped does he?" That was three decades ago, and I still have not come up with a better summary of this man's life." Mark Edward Cody "The spirit that Stoney presents is encouraging and uplifting. His message will inspire individuals to new levels of success and to live life to its fullest". Robert A. Rohm, Ph D "I am amazed and deeply impacted by Stoney's remarkable life story. He has risen above his challenging circumstances with honor and with a level of determination that inspires me to do more, be more and live life for the moment. Bravo Stoney!" Casey Comden, Author and Motivational Speaker
