Try Again: An Ex-Con's Path from Prison to Prosperity

by Nick Marshall

Fans of redemption stories will love this brutally honest personal account of a climb from failure to fortune.Nick Marshall was your average twenty-one-year-old from New Jersey—until he was sentenced to three years in prison for armed robbery. Although he would still be fairly young once released, what kind of life could he have as an ex-con? As Marshall would soon come to find, life on parole was rather limiting, but he was fortunate enough to have a salaried job, a roof over his head, and a car. Yet something still tugged at him: his yearning to be an artist. Fully aware of the hours and schooling that would go into fulfilling such a dream, Marshall gave up his safety net and took his place at the bottom of the totem pole. And like most people starting fresh in the world of employment, he sought out jobs in the hospitality industry. What Marshall did not expect was for a series of jobs in bars and restaurants to catapult him into the exciting yet treacherous world of New York City nightlife. By connecting with all of the right movers, shakers, gatekeepers, and the like, he began to blaze a new trail. Before he knew it, he was a power player who had it all. Or did he? He began to wonder if trips to Saint-Tropez, infinite freebies, and celebrity-like treatment were enough to let the dream that started it all take a backseat. Yet again, Marshall found himself ready to make a major sacrifice. Half cautionary tale and half inspirational memoir, Try Again: An Ex-Con's Path from Prison to Prosperity is the story of one man&’s climb back into society when the highs and lows of post-prison life kept kicking him down. It is the tale of how almost being blinded by the limelight cost him everything he worked so hard for, as well as his mental health and stability. However, this book is not just for those who have been incarcerated; it is for anyone looking to start anew when they are at their lowest, and it feels like it is utterly impossible. It serves as a reminder that the same mistakes that make us human are the ones that can change our lives indefinitely.

Try: A Novel (Books That Changed the World)

by Dennis Cooper

Third in the George Miles Cycle: &“It is finally time to admit that Cooper—whose work is constantly compared to Genet, Baudelaire, etc.—is like no other&” (Paper). Simultaneously deadpan and queasily raw, Try is the story of Ziggy, the adopted teenage son of two sexually abusive fathers. He turns from both of these men to his uncle, who sells pornographic videos on the black market, and to his best friend, a junkie whose own vulnerability inspires in Ziggy a fierce and awkward devotion. Terminally insecure and yet inured to sexual brutality, Ziggy questions his two fathers, his uncle, his drug dealer, his friends, and himself in an attempt to isolate and define the vagaries and boundaries of sexuality, attraction, and abuse, compiling their responses into a journal that he calls I Apologize. Try follows Closer and Frisk in Dennis Cooper&’s award-winning George Miles Cycle, &“a crowning achievement in American letters—a moment where a New World writer has created something as beguiling, baffling, beautiful and intelligent as anything by Genet or Joyce&” (The Guardian). &“There was a rumor that Cooper&’s new book was going to be a &‘nice&’ one after the dark nightmare of Frisk, but Try is even more shocking. It may also be his most perfectly structured and moving work.&” —Paper &“As improbable as it may seem, Dennis Cooper has written a love story, all the more poignant because it is so brutally crushed.&” —The New York Times Book Review

The Try: Reclaiming the American Dream

by James P. Owen

What is it that separates the doers, leaders, and success stories among us from the dreamers, also-rans, and wannabes? To bestselling author James P. Owen, it's all about having The Try-- the quality of giving 110 percent to the task or challenge at hand. In The Try--a dozen true stories of ordinary people who've done extraordinary things across varied fields of endeavor--Owen reveals The Try as a character trait that can be forged in several ways. Some of those profiled are driven by a childhood dream or longheld ambition. Others are fueled by someone else's belief in them, an unwavering belief in themselves, or the urge to pit themselves against daunting odds. Still others find The Try in a life-changing moment when they hit rock bottom or come face-to-face with failure. What all high achievers have in common, Owen believes, is a blend of inner drive, focus, and determination that pushes them to pursue their goals relentlessly, confronting every obstacle, and never, ever giving up. His insightful profiles bring to life new scientific evidence that effort trumps ability. In other words, how much you can achieve depends not on how smart or talented you may be, but instead on the quality of your efforts and how much you try. Owen provides inspiration that will strike a chord with anyone who has a lofty goal, a deep personal ambition, or a major challenge to face. By connecting the dots in this collection of stories, he also delivers practical "how to" advice for those who want to cultivate The Try in themselves, or to encourage someone else on the road to realizing his or her full potential. Owen's conclusion: "If you've got The Try, anything is possible. All it takes...is all you've got."

Truth's Ragged Edge: The Rise of the American Novel

by Philip F. Gura

From the acclaimed cultural historian Philip F. Gura comes Truth's Ragged Edge, a comprehensive and original history of the American novel's first century. Grounded in Gura's extensive consideration of the diverse range of important early novels, not just those that remain widely read today, this book recovers many long-neglected but influential writers—such as the escaped slave Harriet Jacobs, the free black Philadelphian Frank J. Webb, and the irrepressible John Neal—to paint a complete and authoritative portrait of the era. Gura also gives us the key to understanding what sets the early novel apart, arguing that it is distinguished by its roots in "the fundamental religiosity of American life." Our nation's pioneering novelists, it turns out, wrote less in the service of art than of morality.This history begins with a series of firsts: the very first American novel, William Hill Brown's The Power of Sympathy, published in 1789; the first bestsellers, Susanna Rowson's Charlotte Temple and Hannah Webster Foster's The Coquette, novels that were, like Brown's, cautionary tales of seduction and betrayal; and the first native genre, religious tracts, which were parables intended to instruct the Christian reader. Gura shows that the novel did not leave behind its proselytizing purpose, even as it evolved. We see Catharine Maria Sedgwick in the 1820s conceiving of A New-England Tale as a critique of Puritanism's harsh strictures, as well as novelists pushing secular causes: George Lippard's The Quaker City, from 1844, was a dark warning about growing social inequality. In the next decade certain writers—Hawthorne and Melville most famously—began to depict interiority and doubt, and in doing so nurtured a broader cultural shift, from social concern to individualism, from faith in a distant god to faith in the self.Rich in subplots and detail, Gura's narrative includes enlightening discussions of the technologies that modernized publishing and allowed for the printing of novels on a mass scale, and of the lively cultural journals and literary salons of early nineteenth-century New York and Boston. A book for the reader of history no less than the reader of fiction, Truth's Ragged Edge—the title drawn from a phrase in Melville, about the ambiguity of truth—is an indispensable guide to the fascinating, unexpected origins of the American novel.
