Maria Roberts Oral History (interview Code: 3672)
Zusammenfassung: Audiovisual testimony of a Holocaust survivor. Includes pre-war, wartime, and post-war experiences
My Downward Spiral to Freedom
My Downward Spiral to Freedom gives an up close look at a believer's journey from active drug addiction to freedom. From once desiring death to ultimately finding hope. Growing up, Maria Roberts had many dreams and aspirations. As a child, she dreamed of being a princess, living in a big castle. As a young adult, she aspired to become a supermodel and travel the world. She attended college with the ambition of working in the juvenile justice field. Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine the journey that life would take her on. Being the middle child of a school teacher and small business owner, Maria never yearned to be a drug addict.
October All Over
Set in the aftermath of the Grenadian revolution, this work tracks the parallel lives of two generations of Grenadians: Ramona Duprey and Fabian Ferguson, the young lovers; and Norris Duprey and Leila Ferguson - old sweethearts who had separated, but are brought back together by their children's romance.
Single Mother on the Verge
Maria is twenty-nine years old. She is a single mother and lives on a council estate in Manchester. She's also a chronic day-dreamer. One day she'd like to marry a beautiful man with a huge income to look after her and Jack, her nine-year-old son. The only problem is that her current boyfriend, Rhodri, a chickpea-loving vegan eco-warrior, has turned his back on career ladders. Neither does he believe in monogamy. And so Maria finds herself unexpectedly juggling one, two, three lovers . . . When Damien, Jack's abusive father, who threatened more times than Maria cares to remember to kill her makes an unwelcome reappearance, she gets a wake-up call. Will Maria find a wonderful father figure for Jack by the time she turns thirty? A surprisingly humorous memoir with heartbreaking and unexpected moments, Single Mother on the Verge is a seductive and extremely touching read.
