When sixty-eight-year-old Vietnam War veteran David Granger wakes up from emergency surgery, he finds himself repeating a name: Clayton Fire Bear, a soldier from whom he stole something long ago. And now, David knows he must make amends. It might be the only way to find happiness in a world increasingly at odds with the one he served to protect, and it might also help him recover from the loss of the wife he grieves for every day. Motivated by his adoring young granddaughter, Ella, David sets out to confront his past in order to salvage his present. Grumpy and argumentative he may be, but ultimately The Reason You're Alive challenges us to look beyond our own prejudices and search for the good in others.

*"A treasure of a novel...read it and be healed." --Justin Cronin * "Beautifully written and emotion-packed." --Harlan Coben * From the New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook--made into the Academy Award-winning movie starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper--a poignant and hopeful novel about a widower who takes in a grieving teenager and inspires a magical revival in their small town. Lucas Goodgame lives in Majestic, Pennsylvania, a quaint suburb that has been torn apart by a recent tragedy. Everyone in Majestic sees Lucas as a hero--everyone, that is, except Lucas himself. Insisting that his deceased wife, Darcy, visits him every night in the form of an angel, Lucas spends his time writing letters to his former Jungian analyst, Karl. It is only when Eli, an eighteen-year-old young man whom the community has ostracized, begins camping out in Lucas's backyard that an unlikely alliance takes shape and the two embark on a journey to heal their neighbors and, most importantly, themselves. From Matthew Quick, whose work has been described by the Boston Herald as "like going to your favorite restaurant. You just know it is going to be good," We Are the Light is "a testament to the broken and the rebuilt" (Booklist, starred review). The humorous, soul-baring story of Lucas Goodgame offers an antidote to toxic masculinity and celebrates the healing power of art. In this unforgettable and optimistic tale, Quick reminds us that life is full of guardian angels.

"En øm, gripende og morsom debut." Publishers Weekly Pat har mistet alt - huset, jobben og kona Nikki. Etter lang tid på institusjon, flytter han inn hos foreldrene. Målet er å bli i god fysisk form og utvikle seg fra å være en «analfabetisk bajas» til å bli en intellektuell - alt for å få Nikki tilbake. Han trener, følger med på fotball og spyler en del av pillene sine ned i do. Ingen har våget å fortelle ham at Nikki har tatt ut skilsmisse og er etablert på nytt med mann og barn. Enklere blir det ikke når han møter Tiffany, som også har sitt å stri med etter at hun mistet ektemannen i en bilulykke. Hun tilbyr seg å hjelpe Pat å finne tilbake til kona, men kun hvis han er villig til å gjøre noe viktig til gjengjeld. Filmen basert på romanen ble nominert til hele åtte Oscar-priser. «Sjelfull, hysterisk morsom og troverdig.» Justin Cronin, forfatter «Quick fyller sidene med så mye absurd humor og ekte følelser at det er umulig ikke å heie på den utradisjonelle helten hans.» People Magazine «Overbevisende og fascinerende.» The Philadelphia Inquirer "En sjarmerende debutroman (). Det er vanskelig ikke å bli grepet av skjebnen til en mann som, til tross for mye motgang, fortsatt beholder både håpet og troen." The Wall Street Journal "Matthew Quick har skrevet en hjerteknuser av en roman." Kirkus

This book will help you build interactive graphs that are viewable in any web browser using JavaScript, D3.js, and SVG. You will learn how to make a scatter plot, a bar graph, a pie chart, a force directed graph, and a map.Key FeaturesTakes you through the most common graphs you'll needAdd interactivity to your visualizationsEasy to follow buildsBook DescriptionD3.js is a JavaScript library that allows you to create graphs and data visualizations in the browser with HTML, SVG, and CSS. This book will take you from the basics of D3.js, so that you can create your own interactive visualizations, to creating the most common graphs that you will encounter as a developer, scientist, statistician, or data scientist.The book begins with an overview of SVG, the basis for creating two-dimensional graphics in the browser. Once the reader has a firm understanding of SVG, we will tackle the basics of how to use D3.js to connect data to our SVG elements. We will start with a scatter plot that maps run data to circles on a graph, and expand our scatter plot to make it interactive. You will see how you can easily allow the users of your graph to create, edit, and delete run data by simply dragging and clicking the graph. Next, we will explore creating a bar graph, using external data from a mock API.After that, we will explore animations and motion with a bar graph, and use various physics-based forces to create a force-directed graph. Finally, we will look at how to use GeoJSON data to create a map.What you will learnBuild a scatter plotBuild a bar graphBuild a pie chartBuild a force-directed graphBuild a mapBuild interactivity into your graphsWho this book is forThis book is for web developers, interactive news developers, data scientists, and anyone interested in representing data through interactive visualizations on the Web with D3. Some basic knowledge of JavaScript is expected, but no prior experience with data visualization or D3 is required to follow this book.
