Book excerpt: When a child is removed from a home and forced to live a life with strangers, it can be a traumatic experience accompanied by pain and shame that never goes away. This is the story of Ron Huber and his unforgettable journey through a childhood hell that eventually leads him out of the darkness into a successful adult life. Born in 1949 during the post-war era of national elation, Ron Huber’s life is not joyful. When his alcoholic parents abandon him at age three, Ron is sent to two foreboding foster care ghettos where he is raised, over a span of fifteen years, by two female Victorian despots disguised as foster care mothers. After surviving beatings, scorn, emotional abuse, and back-breaking farm work, Ron finally manages to break free of the system and strikes out on his own in a cannibalistic world that nearly devours him. It is only through a miracle of emancipation and salvation that Ron emerges in adulthood as a Green Beret, book author, lecturer, government executive, and family man. In sharing his compelling personal journey, Ron Huber provides a heartbreaking glimpse into the perils that American children still encounter through abuse and a problematic foster care system.

Book excerpt: "In this haunting new novel, the act of forgetting is as strange and interesting as the power of remembering." —The New York Times Book Review Look out for Penelope Lively’s new book, The Purple Swamp Hen and Other Stories. Penelope Lively is renowned for her signature combination of silken storytelling and nuanced human insights. In Family Album, lively masterfully peels back one family's perfect façade to reveal the unsettling truths. All Alison ever wanted was to provide her six children with a blissful childhood. Its creation, however, became an obsession that involved Ingrid, the family au pair. As adults, Paul, Gina, Sandra, Katie, Roger, and Clare return to their family home and as mysteries begin to unravel, each must confront how the consequences of long-held secrets have shaped their lives.

Book excerpt: This book is an examination of the use of the family album in contemporary Spanish culture. Through the analysis of films, narratives, painting, and a photographic exhibition produced from the end of Franco's dictatorship to the present, Kim interrogates how the family album serves as a critical instrument to reflect on the treatment of the past in contemporary Spain, the recuperation of repressed identities, nostalgia for collective memory symptomatic of the cultural discontent with the erosion of a national boundary due to globalization and the increasing claim of diversity, and ethical concerns for immigration. This study explores a broad range of works by canonical as well as less studied writers and artists, including Juan Goytisolo, Carlos Saura, and Marta Balletbo-Coll. Yeon-Soo Kim is Assistant Professor of Spanish at Rutgers University.

Most Lightroom books are out-of-date within a couple of months, as Adobe regularly adds new features. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Edit Like a Pro is different - the eBooks are updated every time Adobe updates the software, so you can always have the latest information! See below for terms and details. The Lightroom ecosystem is Adobe's cloud-based photography service that gives you everything you need to create, edit, organize, store and share your photos across any device. While the interface initially looks simple, there's a lot of power under the hood with industry-standard editing tools and AI-based organization. But as a lot of this power is hidden, how can you get the best out of it, and how do you edit your photos like a professional? In Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Edit Like a Pro, we walk you through a full Lightroom cloud-based workflow, using Lightroom desktop, Lightroom mobile and Lightroom web. You'll learn: How to import and organize your photos and take full advantage of the AI-based search tools in Lightroom. How to analyze a photo from a technical and an artistic point of view, just like a professional, so you know exactly what you need to change to make your photos look stunning. How each of Lightroom's editing sliders and tools work behind the scenes, when you'd use each slider, and how they interact with each other, so you can pick the right tool for the job. WHY to do things, instead of just following recipes or downloading presets. How to easily share your photos with friends, family or clients using Lightroom's integrated web gallery. To make it easy to read, the book... Is written in simple concise english that's easy to understand, even if you're new to photography. Is filled with annotated screenshots and diagrams so it's quick to pick up information. Includes step-by-step image transformations based on real-world amateur photos captured in imperfect light. Saves you time searching the web for information that turns out to be written for the traditional Lightroom Classic instead of your version. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Edit Like a Pro shows you how to make the best use of the whole Lightroom cloud ecosystem, whether you're using the Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Web or Apple TV apps. (If you use the folder-based Lightroom Classic version, please see our book Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Classic - The Missing FAQ). Premium Membership Bonus!
