A New York Times Notable Book of the YearStella Benson answers a classified ad for an au pair, arriving in a tiny Sussex village that's home to a family that is slightly larger than life. Her hopes for the Maddens may be high, but her station among them is low and remote. It soon becomes clear that Stella falls short of even the meager specifications her new role requires, most visibly in the area of "aptitude for the country life." But what drove her to leave her home, job, and life in London in the first place? Why has she severed all ties with her parents? Why is she so reluctant to discuss her past? And who, exactly, is Edward?The Country Life is a rich and subtle novel about embarrassment, awkwardness, and being alone; about families, or the lack of them; and about love in some peculiar guises. Rachel Cusk's widely praised novel is a captivating tale of one young woman's adventures in self-discovery.
Before I got this I was becoming overwhelmed by the amount of reading I was doing but this book simplied everything. I like having this book. I have examined ALL five of these books and John Martin's is THE worst. Definitely worth the investment.. Yes you will improve your focus and become more creative.
My passion has been to improve my brain function so I do many different type of Brain exercises and try to stay on the cutting edge Brain enhancement.
This book is number one with me. While the three stories included here still contain Lee's usual warped outlook on modern day society, the stories are much deeper than mere blood and guts tales. He seems to agree with Ben Franklin in that a society that give up freedom for security deserves neither. Even the nicest people can desire revenge when there has been an injustice. Doctors are far more saavy now about sports injuries than they were 20 years ago, but this book will still provide a reality check for many readers.
