"Oh Joe!" is a must read for anyone who has experienced grief and loss and struggles to survive. Other books have been written about the stages of grief. This one eloquently conveys in poem the complex feelings of the grieving process that others describe with clinical observation. There are no platitudes, no easy answers here. Joseph LeBlanc speaks from the heart about the anguish of loss and how it feels. It is a father's personal struggle to survive the loss of his son so piercing you will feel you are there and fall to your knees in thanks that you are not. He speaks to us of feelings of loss we all have in a way that cannot help but leave you touched. It is rare that a man would expose this much of himself. It is rarer still that he would write about it for all to read. We should be thankful for this glimpse into the recesses of soul within us all.

Joe spent most of his time at the bar, where they knew him as "Gemini Joe," a charismatic, funny man who was the life of any party, but his family didn't see this side of him at home. A bottle of scotch on the table was all it took to set him off, causing his children to hide at the top of the stairs, listening and waiting for the fighting to stop. At times, his creative side came out in the form of poetry, drawings, and inventions, including the first design for a toothpaste cap that stayed on the tube. Tragically, he was never to achieve success. The struggle with alcohol caused Joe to walk away from his wife and children. Years passed until he wrote his estranged daughter a letter. It included a poem that he had written, which triggered her curiosity. She didn't know much about his childhood and asked him to tell her his story.A very emotional story that will bring tears to the reader's eyes and occasional laughter. The way Joe reconnects with his daughter is beautiful, and rediscovering her real father seems to have been a beautiful journey in itself. The story is told from the perspective of Gemini Joe, a man with sensitivity, a party man who'd always succeeded in making people laugh and have a good time but who was never easy to deal with at home. I also enjoyed the moving, very inspiring poems that open the chapters, poems by the protagonist. This is a story that compels me to revisit my story with my own father. My relationship with my father has never been a great one, and after reading this book, I begin to wonder if he's been deeply hurt as well. Janet Sierzant tells a story of hurt, addiction, and redemption and makes readers understand that those who hurt others are themselves hurting deeply and that behind the ugliness; we may notice in some people that there is a wellspring of beauty waiting to burst forth. At times, it needs only a little attention to draw from that wellspring. This memoir is deeply human and intensely satisfying. Divine Zape for Readers' Favorite

Uncle Joe, FDR and the Deep State

Uncle Joe, FDR and the Deep State

W. August Mayer

Pipelinemedia

"Uncle Joe, FDR and the DEEP STATE," should be seen as a companion volume to the author's recently published, "Islamic Jihad, Cultural Marxism and the Transformation of the West." The book examines the Marxist-Leninist roots of what is today colloquially called the Deep State with an emphasis on the curious relationship between President Franklin Roosevelt and the Soviet Union's dictator, Josef Stalin. The author sets the plate as it were with a thorough, non-ideologically approved, re-telling of the history of the United States over the last century, especially as it pertains to the response by the world's leading democracy to the existential threat posed by Marxism during Roosevelt's four successive administrations. Relying on the new scholarship about this period of time which leans heavily on documents developed by the U.S. World War II intelligence review program, the Venona Project, as well as Russian documents made available for a brief time following the fall of the Soviet Union by Boris Yeltsin, the author makes a very strong case that the origin of today's un-elected proto-state can only be explained in terms of the massive cultural revolution sparked by Roosevelt's intentional re-interpretation of the role of the federal government which he saw fit to both expand beyond reason as well as seed with known agents of the Soviet Union and American fellow travelers. Unchallenged by Congress and the judiciary, blessed by the hard-left media, its masters in the Democrat and Republican parties and the far-left centers of power in Western Europe, the machinations of the Deep State are pulled into high resolution in this important and surprisingly easy to read book.

Born into extreme poverty in 1914, Jersey Joe Walcott began boxing at the age of 16 to help feed his hungry family. After ten years, without proper training and with little to show for his efforts beyond some frightful beatings, Walcott quit the ring. A chance meeting with a fight promoter who recognized the potential in his iron chin and hard punch turned Walcott's fortunes around, launching one of the greatest comebacks in boxing history. This biography details Walcott's youth, his dismal early career, and his legendary climb to become the heavyweight champion of the world at age 37, at the time the oldest man ever to win the coveted title. Along the way, he battled some of the most feared champions of his day, including Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles, and Rocky Marciano. With numerous period photographs and a foreword from Walcott's grandson, this work provides an intimate look at one of the grittiest, most determined boxers of the 20th century.

In the audacious and lyrical debut novel All Joe Knight, longlisted for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize, critically acclaimed writer Kevin Morris cements his place as a bold new voice in American literature. 1961. Orphaned before his first birthday, Joe Knight begins life as a blank slate. Taken in by an aunt in a blue-collar Philadelphia suburb, Joe finds a sense of belonging with a scrappy group of kids who come together on the basketball court and evolve into the Fallcrest High School team—the kind of team that comes around once in a generation. All these kids want is to make it to the Palestra, Philadelphia’s cathedral of college basketball. Fast-forward thirty years: Joe is newly divorced with a young daughter. Ever since selling the ad firm he built from the ground up for millions, he’s been wiling away his time at a local business school and at strip clubs. Then he hears from Chris Scully, a former Fallcrest teammate who is now district attorney. The Justice Department is sniffing around the deal that made Joe rich—a deal he cut every member of the basketball team into, except for Scully. As the details about Joe’s possible transgressions are unreeled, he is forced to face the emptiness inside himself and a secret that has tormented him for decades.
Kokomo Joe

The first Japanese American jockey, Kokomo Joe burst like a comet on the American horse-racing scene in the summer of 1941. As war with Japan loomed, Yoshio "Kokomo Joe" Kobuki won race after race, stirring passions far beyond merely the envy and antagonism of other jockeys. His is a story of the American dream catapulting headlong into the nightmare of a nation gripped by wartime hysteria and xenophobia. The story that unfolds in Kokomo Joe is at once inspiring, deeply sad, and richly ironic—and remarkably relevant in our own climate of nationalist fervor and racial profiling. Sent to Japan from Washington State after his mother and three siblings died of the Spanish flu, Kobuki continued to nurse his dream of the American good life. Because of his small stature, his ambition steered him to a future as a star jockey. John Christgau narrates Kobuki's rise from lowly stable boy to reigning star at California fairs and in the bush leagues. He describes how, at the height of the jockey's fame, even his flight into the Sonora Desert could not protect him from the government's espionage and sabotage dragnet. And finally he recounts how, after three years of internment, Kokomo Joe tried to reclaim his racing success, only to fall victim to still-rampant racism, a career-ending injury, and cancer.
