Book Description
1908. This book is not a critical study, but a simple story.

That is the Lincoln who stands forth as the true prophet of a reunited people and the noblest product of that democracy which is slowly uniting all peoples in fraternal bonds. Illustrated.

menior of Important Islamicist Egyptian Writer.......2004-12-30
A Child From The Village by Sayyid Qutb, edited, translated, and with an introduction by John Calvert and William Shepard (Middle East Literature in Translation: Syracuse University Press) Although the Egyptian writer Sayyid Qutb is not a household name in the United States, he is well known throughout the Islamic World as a seminal thinker in the Islamist movement, influential as far away as Pakistan and Malaysia. A member of the Islamic Brotherhood, he was jailed by Gamal Abdul Nasser's government as early as 1954. He became one of the most uncompromising voices of the movement we now call Islamism and is best known perhaps for his book, Ma'lam fi al-tariq (Milestones, 1965), after publication of which he was accused of conspiring against Egyptian president Nasser and arrested. He was executed in 1966.
This memoir tells of Qutb's childhood in the village of Musha in Upper Egypt. Qutb documents the era between 1912 and 1918, a time immensely influencial in the creation of modern Egypt. Written with much tenderness toward childhood memories, it has become a classic in modern Arabic autobiography. Qutb offers a clear picture of Egyptian village life in the early twentieth century, its customs and lore, educational system, religious festivals, relations with the central government, and the struggle to modernize and retain its identity. In their rendering of the work into English, translators John Calvert and William Shepard capture the beauty and intensity of Qutb's prose.
A Child from the Village was written just prior to Qutb's conversion to the Islamist cause and reflects his concerns for social justice. Interest in Qutb's writing has increased in the West since Islamism has emerged as a power on the world scene.
message. Despite its tone of nostalgia, A Child from the Village paints a picture of the Egyptian countryside that is not entirely happy. The specter of peasant indebtedness and loss of land haunts the pages of the autobiography, as does disease caused by unhygienic conditions and the peasants' recourse to folk remedies and barber-surgeons rather than scientifically trained physicians. The joys of Ramadan, birth ceremonies, and other festive occasions are juxtaposed to death, tragedy, and the laments of women whose families patiently endure hard lives. Captives of poverty and ignorance, the peasants of Qutb's autobiography toil endlessly in their fields with little expectation that their lives will improve. They are the victims of the few large landowners and politicians who controlled Egypt's wealth. According to Tetz Rooke, who examined a wide range of Arabic childhood autobiographies, the critical portrayal of rural life found A Child from the Village represents a "break with the tendency towards pastoral idealization which dominated much of the first Egyptian creative writing concerned with country life." lt may thus be seen as a "precursor of the later Egyptian novel that embraces the subject of the village with a true-to-life, descriptive intent such as al-Ard [The earth, 1953] by 'Abd al-Rahman al-Sharqawi (1920-1987)."4 In the context of the mid-1940s, Qutb's book manifests a growing awareness among Egypt's intelligentsia of socioeconomic issues. It was during this period, for example, that dissident elements within the Wafd founded the Wafdist Vanguard in order to influence the party leadership in a leftist direction.
Implicitly and sometimes explicitly in the book, Qutb advocates the need for reform and modernization at the village level. Qutb believed that the introduction of modern schooling in Musha was a step in the right direction, but he also believed that there was need for many more improvements, especially in the areas of land reform and health care. In his view, the Egyptian government was the obvious agent to undertake the necessary reforms, but too often the state's ameliorative efforts were imposed with a heavy hand or else were ill conceived. Qutb provides a harrowing account of a government operation, probably staged shortly after World War I, to confiscate all weapons belonging to the villagers of Asyut Province as a precondition for its integration into the structure of the State on a more thorough basis. He describes how soldiers, having surrounded the village, brutally interrogated the peasants, at one point firing bullets over the heads of the assembled village elders. Events such as this reinforced the peasants' traditional distrust of a governmental authority that in the past periodically subjected them to corvée labor. Elsewhere in the book, Qutb documents, sometimes with humor, the unwelcome and often inexpert intrusions of various government officials into the affairs of the community. We are introduced to medical officials, coroners, judges, and others, all of whom attempt to order and police the countryside in ways that make sense to the State but not to the villagers. In much the same way as the Egyptian writer Tawfiq al-Hakim's novella Diary of a Country Prosecutor, A Child from the Village documents the gulf in understanding that existed between urban officialdom and the dwellers of the countryside, the difference being that in Qutb's book we are provided with the perspective of the peas-ants rather than that of a government official. Qutb appears to argue that if modernization in Egypt's countryside is to be effective, it must take into account the sensibilities and social and economic realities of its inhabitants.
Within two years of the publication of A Child from the Village, Qutb adopted the Islamist position upon which his fame rests. Whatever the exact reasons for his ideological change, the significant point is that Qutb's early Islamist writings display many of the same basic concerns for social justice and national community that figure in his secular writings, including A Child from the Village. A discussion of the ways in which Qutb grafted the symbols and doctrines of the Qur'an is beyond the scope of this introduction. What can be said is that A Child from the Village illuminates an important element of the context out of which Qutb's Islamism emerged.
Book Description
"This autobiography of a young man who escaped the most foreboding of circumstances and raised himself up by his own bootstraps will appeal to a wide range of readers.... His courage in dealing with and overcoming a wretched existence in Haiti and the dehumanizing effects of racism in the United States will stimulate much reflection on the nature of these two societies."
Alex Dupuy, author of
Haiti in the World Economy and
Haiti in the New World Order
African slaves in Haiti emancipated themselves from French rule in 1804 and created the first independent black republic in the Western Hemisphere. But they reinstituted slavery for the most vulnerable members of Haitian societythe children of the poorby using them as unpaid servants to the wealthy. These children wereand still arerestavecs, a French term whose literal meaning of "staying with" disguises the unremitting labor, abuse, and denial of education that characterizes the children's lives.
In this memoir, Jean-Robert Cadet recounts the harrowing story of his youth as a restavec, as well as his inspiring climb to middle-class American life. He vividly describes what it was like to be an unwanted illegitimate child "staying with" a well-to-do family whose physical and emotional abuse was sanctioned by Haitian society. He also details his subsequent life in the United States, where, despite American racism, he put himself through college and found success in the Army, in business, and finally in teaching.
Customer Reviews:
Great!.......2007-08-29
I loved this book. I thought it was excellent, touching, compelling, and educational. The tales in Mr. Cadet's life are certaintly unforgetable. I cried, laughed, and lived with this book as I traveled with Mr. Cadet and his life experiences.
This book is a must read.
Still shaking my head.......2007-07-13
I got this book in the mail on 7/12 at 6:00 pm. I could not stop reading it, even though I had a social to attend (took it with me) and finally fell asleep around 12:30 am. Woke up at 4 to finish it. I could not put it down. To think that what I read is all true is just overwhelming. I am encouraged by his triumph over his life struggles, but still understanding of his daily battle to fight feeling of insecurity and inferiority.
If you need a new appreciation for life or a reason to strive for more, read this book. Someone who has suffered greatly has had enough victory to encourage you to do better.
Extremely Enlighting..........2007-07-07
After hearing Mr. Cadet on Oprah, I didn't stop until I ordered his book. I could not put this book down once I started reading it... it was truly a book filled with so many graphic details and the emotions that were evoked were feelings of anger, pity, empahty and sympathy that I never knew existed within me. While, I am not from Haiti I just couldn't help feeling such empathy for the children and people of Haiti who were/are exposed to this type of existence. In 2007 it amazes me that slavery, in any form, exists in the world. This book haunts at the reader to examine him/herself and see what can he/she contribute towards the world whereby the end result will be equality for all mankind. My heart goes out to all of the Jean Robert-Cadets in the world. At the same time I wonder how could his father have loved his mother so much that he would allow such treatment of his child, especially, once he was made aware of his circumstances. As for the people who contributed towards the hell of a life that Mr. Cadet experienced as a child and took that luggage into adulthood...they should know that Karma is alive, well and active.
This book, touches any and all emotions of the reader, it enlightens and paints a vivid picture of what some children have to endure on a daily basis. This book is definitely a wake up call for all people of the world to come to our senses and treat people with dignity. It brings home the fact that we are all products of our environment and we must cherish our most prized possessions, our children of the world. We, as adults, must realize that they are innocent and it should be a reasonable expectation of them to think that at the very least we will provide and protect them. I applaud the steps that Mr.Cadet with the assistance of God and his wife is taking to conquer the strong holds that his childhood put upon him.
Keep the faith Mr. Cadet and break the cycle. Life is too precious to not live it to the fullest. Continue to look towards the hills from which cometh your help...
I have been educated and taught a lesson that will never be forgotten simply from reading this book. This lesson that one will get from this book crosses all color lines. We as a people have to raise up and do to others as we would want done to us and our love ones.
slavery is alive and well in Haiti.......2007-07-06
reader will find it difficult to read parts of this book describing the authors childhood as a slave in Haiti. Hopefully your awareness of the real situation for children in countries other than the US wil prompt you to try to help change their situation. inspiring story of overcoming in the face of huge obstacles.
You Have to Go to Haiti If You Can.......2007-05-05
While visiting Haiti recently on a short trip I had the opportunity to meet Jean-Robert. As a matter of fact, I did not know about the book until I had met him.
It is a great shame that Jean-Robert's story is common in the country of Haiti. I had the opportunity to meet two others while in Haiti who were restavecs who related to me their plight.
Jean-Robert does a great service to humanity by documenting and having the courage to tell of his life. I recommended it highly, but only as preparation on seeing the conditions of Haiti for yourself (don't let nay-sayers or worry worts discourage you from visiting). Only after visiting Haiti, I think, can the book be fully appreciated for the powerful testimony that it is.
Book Description
This is the dramatic, emotional and ultimately inspiring story of how a woman’s determination and courage in the face of extremely daunting odds brought about the reunion of her family, after her husband took their children and fled to the Middle East.

Dear Samadhi:
Hope all is well. I am finally at the library, and have the time to share my thoughts with you about your book. I manage to get here only once or twice a week. I am getting ready for a trip to England next week, something that is adding to the busyness of my lifestyle.
We met and chatted at your booth during the Body, Soul, & Spirit Expo in Calgary in April 2006.. It was just after I retired from the Alberta Government as a social worker in the child protection field. I read about half the book, and {personal life issues arose}. Your book remained untouched until recently when I managed to finish it.
I am part of two spiritual groups in Calgary and they are a good stabilizing influence. Both teachers are women who are connected to a current that I resonate with at the present time.
When I finished your book, I felt deep appreciation that I had been exposed to your journey, but traumatized over what you experienced, as a child and a woman. Though I encountered a lot of child sexual, physical and mental abuse in my profession, the job itself was highly rigid and bureaucratic, leaving me with little quality time to spend with the children.
I was a case manager and arranged for therapists to work with the children. I knew the big picture about each child, and in general terms the emotional and behavioural consequences, but I never had the chance to get into such a detailed exposé of the personal side of what the child experienced. Hence, your sharing about what you experienced as a youth and adult was highly relevant, and served to round out my understanding of what this kind of suffering is all about, including the deep emotional and mental scars it leaves.
Circumstances took you to lands where male brutality to women, both psychological and physical, not only prevailed but was culturally sanctioned. I cannot help but wonder whether you were guided to what you experienced simply in order to exacerbate your personal issues and bring the whole thing to a head, where psychological release from your attachments and inner turmoil was the only alternative for a harmonious inner life to prevail.
You came out of the other end a whole person with a lot of understanding of the letting go process, something that can help many people you encounter, if they are receptive to hearing you.
I hope your present life is fulfilling and that you encounter ongoing growth and happiness. When I settle down somewhere, which only the universe knows where and when it will be, I will extend an invitation to you and your partner to visit and enjoy our beautiful Rocky Mountains and turquoise lakes.
Best Wishes,
Doug Christou, Calgary
Amazing Journey Within.......2007-07-03
Turning the pages as you unravel each layer of the veil takes you beyond religions, borders or sexual orientation, into the core of the human Spirit. Your heart travels along the edges of your own insecurities and fears as you explore life through someone else's eyes. Samadhi's amazing journey makes you want to do something, anything, to give your higher self a chance to come into the light, release those butterflies, who in turn will give wings to every Soul they touch along the way. As the circles widen and open up, the little flutters of the voice of LOVE are heard.
Circles in the Sand- An excellent read.......2006-05-23
This book touched my heart and gave me hope that women can survive abuse in all areas and find the strength to heal and move forward in ones life. I have worked as a counselor in the area of trauma and abuse, for over twenty years. Themes of healing from trauma and discovering ones sexuality only empower and strengthen ones soul from the inside out. I could relate to the family of origin wounds for all individuals and the ability for Samadhi to discover, heal, and forgive are truly the answers to finding peace and serenity within. I was touched by each page of absolute honesty and willingness to share her story. Samadhi, you have changed my life because of this book and reminded me one more time that love does prevail. Thank you.

Impossible to put down!.......2006-03-23
Samadhi's Circles in the Sand is a thought provoking read that I couldn't wait to finish. It is well written and the story flows from start to finish. This is not one woman's struggle; it is every woman's struggle for equality, self respect and self love. I recommend it to everybody.
My only suggestion would be to include maps of the Middle East at the beginning to get a better understanding of Samadhi's travels.
Way to go, Samadhi!
What a Gift.......2006-02-13
When Janice gave me your book to read, she did so with such high expectations for the reader. I am delighted to say that I was not disappointed. Janice did say that our stories are parallel in some instances and I really enjoyed how similar our lives were and how aligned with spirit they are for both of us now.
I could not put your book down and it took me less than 2 days to complete it. Upon completion all I could think of was the many people I know personally whom could and would benefit from your story, what obstacles you've overcome and how you went about achieving it.
Thank you. It was heart pounding, shattering and rejuvenating all at once. I will be strongly recommending your book to many in Australia.
Love and light to you.

Miles Apart!.......2001-01-03
*Memoirs of a Middle Child* by Louise C. Vorhaus takes the reader a measured mile towards understanding a family illness all too common today in the United States. She tracks it from its origin half a century ago to the havoc it brought to all of those around her. Take three siblings. An auto accident mentally and physically injures the beloved youngest girl. The aftermath of those few seconds of grinding steel leave mother, father, and the two older sisters cast in roles they are not equipped to handle. If only the mother or father could have had the insight to seek counseling for the five of them so as to offset the inevitable post-traumatic consequences. If only the two sisters could somehow have been identical twins, of identical mindset, with identical ways of handling crisis and stress. However, neither the parents nor the siblings are able to put the pieces back together again. While the middle sister faces the tragedy head on, the older sister's approach is one of distancing and denial. It's a compelling story, told with candor from the viewpoint of the middle child. It's a story told in the autumn years of life, after the sand has all run through. Not a chance you'd recognize the symptoms in your own family circle, is there? But if you do, then turn yourself into a spider on the wall and observe how the mess you're in is destined to end. Sure there are textbooks you can read if you prefer. However, good case histories don't come along every day. When it comes down to push and shove, sometimes understanding what went wrong is the best way for most of us to get things right.
Personal and Political Realities Meet.......2000-12-13
I'm not sure what I like best about this book, because it really offers two different things, and both are quite touching in their way. On one hand, I got a glimpse inside a real and troubled relationship among three sisters, one of whom is rendered paraplegic by an accident in her teen years. I almost felt like a voyeur, I must admit, as I read about the conflicts and heartaches that that accident caused. At the same time, Memoirs gave me a look at a society I knew nothing about: St. Louis, Missouri, in the middle of the 20th century - a surprisingly racist and anti-Semitic place in its own genteel, self-denying, semi-Southern way. A real eye-opener, believe me.
The thing about a memoir like this is that it has to be both personal and universal to work (at least to work for me). Memoirs of a Middle Child really works well on both levels, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who finds (as I do) real life to be profoundly more stimulating than fiction.
Book Description
An inspirational, one of a kind family love story in which a professor learns on the eve of his 59th birthday that he is to become a father for the sixth time. He quits his post in academia to play stay-at-home caregiver to a second set of three children well into his seventies. Written with wit, warmth and a poet's touch, this bonanza of true family values comes with a promise to readers: three laughs for every tear.

It's True: Meyer Delivers Three Laughs for Every Tear.......2005-06-16
I loved this book! Meyer tells a heartwarming and, yes, sometimes heartbreaking story of a man grappling with his own mortality while raising three young children the second time around.
I especially loved the moments in which Meyer bonds with his young children: with his eldest daughter Molly and their shared discovery of words through great books; with his younger daughter Madeleine and her imaginative dabling in careers from lemonade-stand entrepreneur, to Bed-and-Breakfast manager, to house private eye; and with his youngest son Franz and their paired love of baseball. He recalls the events of his children's lives with such rich and simple descriptions that the reader expereinces these moments along with Meyer and his family.
Even in its darkest moments--say when Meyer relives several near-death accidents of his children; or when he faces the truth of his own aging, failing body; or, most chillingly, when he imagines the events of his children's lives he may miss--what shines through is a deep and undying family love.
I laughed. I cried. I was edified.
Hilarious.......2005-06-04
Larry Meyer's "Memoirs of a Geezer Dad" is both a touching and hilarious accounting of a 60-plus retired professor raising three small children. Larry, having already raised three grown sons, obsesses about his own mortality, weak knees and heart in this new stage of his life. His humor is honest, self-effacing and refreshing. This is not a how-to book; he is perfectly willing to admit defeat even when confronted by a precocious six-year old. This loving account of Larry's two grown and not-so grown children is a must read for all parents..
NO PALTRY THING.......2005-05-23
MEYER'S DIARY "NO PALTRY THING" IS NOT ONLY A WARM AND SENTIMENTAL JOURNAL OF FAMILY LIFE, BUT IT IS A HILARIOUS ACCOUNT OF A BORN-AGAIN FATHER. THE AUTHOR'S CAPTIVATING STORY IS ENHANCED BY HIS WIT AND TURN OF PHRASE. I JUST DIDN'T WANT THE MEYER FAMILY SAGA TO END. GREAT BOOK!

Writers Notes 2005 Book Award Winner.......2005-04-28
At age 59, Larry Meyer learned that he would be a father again. The news was both joyous and alarming. He was up for the task, sort of, but would he run short of years before he saw the fruits of his labor? And if not, would his children remember him? Or even worse, would he be sharp enough to remember them? Being an older parent adds its own special challenges, but the levity wrought by Meyer in his self-styled legacy for his kids is poignant, while carrying more than a few belly laughs.
Not just for parents or geezers.......2005-04-01
Being a childless geezerette of 53, I didn't expect to relate much to Larry Meyer's chronicle of geezer fatherdom. Was I surprised! His wit, wisdom and most of all, love of family transcend the chasm between parents and non-parents, geezers and not-yet geezers. As a newly minted "geezerette aunt", I shared his pangs of loss at the milestones he'll miss with this late-blooming brood. At the same time, I cheered his recognition of all that his older sons missed being raised by a "normal" Dad juggling career and family, and his determination to do things differently. How many of us have wished at one time or another that our parents could have "gotten it" the way he did? Although, by his accounts, he did pretty well by the older trio, too. Mostly, the book made me want to be a fly on the wall at the Meyer house, to share in the hijinks and all that love and respect they clearly have for each other. Don't wait for geezerdom - read it now! If all new parents of any age used this book as a blueprint, there could be a whole slew of happy, well-balanced kids on the planet. And that's no paltry thing!
