Published to international critical and popular acclaim, this intensely romantic yet stunningly realistic novel spans three generations and the unimaginable gulf between the First World War and the present. As the young Englishman Stephen Wraysford passes through a tempestuous love affair with Isabelle Azaire in France and enters the dark, surreal world beneath the trenches of No Man's Land, Sebastian Faulks creates a world of fiction that is as tragic as A Farewell to Arms and as sensuous as The English Patient. Crafted from the ruins of war and the indestructibility of love, Birdsong is a novel that will be read and marveled at for years to come.Binding Type: Paperback

Intense and Informative
Format: Paperback
This is some intense and easily consumed deep reading material, compelling us to gaze uncomfortably at and into the unflattering challenges which continue to face the African-American collective "Community," and delves head-on into examining & explaining how the "HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE" of Black People in the United States, those who were the unfortunate descendants of the Trans-Atlantic African Slave Trade, has both simultaneously "Strengthened" and "Hindered" hindered life for this segment of the North American population across the Generations, to where many of its effects are still being felt even to this very Day.
This is a powerful companion to Dr. Carol Anderson's excellent book on on the Societal struggles of Blacks in America - "WHITE RAGE: The Unspoken Truth Of Our Racial Divide"

Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome
Format: Hardcover
Very well done book that does not make Black People feel angry nor White People guilty but from a gentle and skillful psychological point of view the book will "have you considered the impact of this or that upon both races as the result of Slavery in America?" A folk-like homespun way of tell these truths that masks the clinical questions that all trained psychologist asked..."and how would (does) that make you feel for all of us who ever sat on a couch?" The book made me consider the psychological impact of daily slave life with a WOW again and again as I never thought of the situations the book made me consider. The shared dehumanization of both whites and blacks due to the slave experience which goes a long way towards explaining to me why we as a country cannot truly discuss slavery's impact today. I found it self-healing and very necessary for all, both black and white, but especially for the victims of the African Holocaust my terminology not hers. I thought Dr. Leary PhD, did an excellent job and a high school or even a 6 grader could read the material without difficulty.

Healing & Understanding
Format: Paperback
We are living in a slave master's land (was the Indians..). Hundreds of years of slavery, mental torture and degradation and then "freed." No therapy. No understanding, not even patience. To listen to Dr DeGruy's youtube videos was so enlightening to me. Sorrow, but understanding and then JOY. I didn't understand the anger, towards myself or others. Now, I can see where so much pain has come from. I can show compassion and love towards myself and others. Whatever programming I had, has been deleted--destroyed. I look back with pride, hurt, and know that I, myself, can heal. What a blessing this woman has brought us! Thank you Dr. Joy DeGruy!
