The poet Marcelle Eugenie Desplanques was born in Paris, France, on March 12, 1897. She was a fine and proper lady, who met and married Carroll King Jones, an American soldier serving in Europe during World War I. Her introduction to the people and cultures of the United States was not an easy one. She adapted, she withstood unpleasantries and bigotries, she made a home and family with this man who'd swept her away from life as she had known it. She bore two strong sons and a lovely daughter. Her older son, Francis, was killed in Europe during World War II. Her younger son, Donald, who also fought overseas in that same war, survived, returned home to the U.S. and later became my father. Through it all, my grandmother maintained a passion for poetry. She was an extraordinary woman. She endured things in her life that would have made most of us buckle under the weight. I believe she endured it all, not only because of her remarkable inner strength, but because of her steadfast faith and love of God. This book of poetry includes her writings from 1938 to 1941 and then from 1979 to 1982. Marcelle Desplanques Jones died in 1990 at the age of 92. Photos included.

Martys verden ramler sammen. Faderen er fraværende i mere end en forstand, moderen drikker, kæresten dropper hende og forholdet til veninden har det ikke så godt. Marty holder op med at spise. Til sidst bliver hun indlagt på en privatklinik, som behandler spiseforstyrrelser. Marty er sej, hun er rap i replikken og skrap i sin analyse af omverdenen, både af forældrene og af plejerne. Der er rørende scner og komiske scener, set af og fortalt af Marty. Bogen bliver aldrig sentimental! Den skal læses!
Marty Black, a high school senior, finds herself in a psychiatric institution where she is being treated for her eating disorder, and soon recognizes that her need for help is only the first tenuous step on a long road to recovery.
The nature of war is that there is no normal; emotions are always running on the surface; fear, hope, sadness and love can all manifest themselves in an instant. In this setting, four central characters embark upon a daring and extremely dangerous journey through war torn France in 1944. Two French orphaned children have no idea how they will reach what they believe to be their only surviving family. Meanwhile, two Allied prisoners of war escape their captivity, but behind enemy lines they are uncertain about their survival and their ability to get back behind Allied lines. They each carry a burden of their own personal heart-breaking tragedy as fate brings them together. The sadness and despair from the loss felt by each of them must be overcome if they are to survive. Survival, however, is not guaranteed as each step they take on the journey is fraught with danger. They soon realise that love and friendship are the most important ingredients to help them reach their personal objectives. Despite the perils they face they demonstrate courage and determination and never lose hope, because as each day passes and with each crisis they face, the bond between the two vulnerable children and the soldiers grows stronger.
