Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Hardcover. A boy in a small town in India watched a plane cross the sky and wondered who was inside. Twenty-four years later, he was the one looking down.This is not a success story. A success story would mean the boy crossed that distance himself. He did not. Nobody does. This is a book about who carried him.What We Carry Forward is the account of how one family moved, across four generations, from that town to a life on another continent. It is the story of a great-grandfather who built much and gave little. A grandmother who bore the cost of what was withheld. A father who made passports for his children when there was nowhere to go, and who chose eight years of loneliness so his sons could study. A dying man who, in his last hours, answered one question honestly. A stranger at evening prayers who said "I will arrange everything," and meant it. An engineer who turned his own overtime shifts into other people's educations.Riyaz Mohammed wrote this book for his four children, so they would know they were carried. He wrote it for anyone standing in a room with a child, shaping someone without knowing it. And he wrote it for every person who has ever wondered how they really got where they are, and whether the answer they have been giving themselves is the honest one.We are the accumulated generosity of people who chose to give when they could have kept. This book is one family's attempt to name them. A boy in India watched a plane cross the sky. Twenty-four years later, he was the one looking down. The account of the people who carried him, most of whom never knew they were doing it. This item is printed on demand.
