Story4.5 out of 5 stars 132
Lucinda Williams’s rise to fame was anything but easy. Raised in a working-class family in the Deep South, she moved from town to town each time her father—a poet, a textbook salesman, a professor, a lover of parties—got a new job, totaling twelve different places by the time she was eighteen. Her mother suffered from severe mental illness and was in and out of hospitals. And when Williams was about a year old, she had to have an emergency tracheotomy—an inauspicious start for a singing career. But she was also born a fighter, and she would develop a voice that has captivated millions.

“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

The Goldfinch is a haunted odyssey through present-day America and a drama of enthralling force and acuity. It begins with a boy. Theo Decker, a 13-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives an accident that kills his mother. Abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, disturbed by schoolmates who don't know how to talk to him, and tormented above all by his unbearable longing for his mother, he clings to one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into the underworld of art.

One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do. It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams - that contributed to the person I am today. This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival, and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

Talk to Me like I'm Someone You Love is a brilliant interactive relationship tool that can help couples stop arguing and begin healing. This revised edition features two new sections - one on making love and another on deepening trust - containing more than 25 new "flash cards for real life", statements that hold the power to express what we wish we could say to the person we love but for which we can't find either the right words or the right tone in which to say them.

Wow E!
This was an absolute binge fest of an Audible book. ME is as an amazing of a story teller as he is a song writer, who would have ever know that they are one in the same! Thank you for this masterpiece of a listen and for never giving into the man because frankly sir that is you! Everyone needs to read this when in doubt of strength and self worth. This is one of the best life stories I have ever heard. The son of a genius sure did carve out a special place in this universe!!

Sad, funny and inspiring...
Would you listen to Things the Grandchildren Should Know again? Why?
I have already listened to it twice.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Things the Grandchildren Should Know?
Everett's amazing personality and sense of humor shine through the tragic and defining stories of his life giving new insight into the man and his music. Also, beautifully read by The Chet.
Have you listened to any of The Chet’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have listened to The Chet perform live with the Eels for years. As for audio books, I do not believe he has done any others but with his voice and annunciation, I would definitely love to hear more.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
This book was so good, I woke up at 5 am just to finish it before going to work.
Any additional comments?
I strongly recommend this book.

Surprisingly good
I had never heard of the Mels or Mark Oliver Everett before (I am kind of in a musical box of heavy metal bluegrass and country) this book came up inappropriately when I was searching for a book on parallel realities. pleasant surprise! I genuinely enjoyed this book The narration was good and the story was captivating. thank you for writing this book.

Simple and totally enjoyable!
At first I was confused. But it inspired me to tell my grandchildren the thought of my heart as a child.

Different point of view
I found this book interesting. You get to see someone’s life from a different point of view. I read it after reading about his dad and seeing the bbc short documentary on his life (available on YouTube). It reminds me to not judge and to send good vibes because you never know what someone else is going through.

One of the best Audible books I've heard......
and I've heard a lot of them.
I became curious about the author after seeing Parallel Worlds, Parallel Lives. I wasn't familiar with his music.
It's a great survival story!
Compelling, well written and produced, and very well read!

Love this author
This was one of the most interesting books I’ve read! The author has such a different take on life than most people, including myself. The descriptions of his life events are hilarious, heartbreaking & memorable!

absolutely fantastic
I really truly feel inspired by it. As an Eels fan for so long, this book sheds a radiant light over E's complex life and intricate music. The honest tone of the book, its humor, witts, lessons learnt and wising up as he grows older is really astonishing to me. Highly recommended and not only to music fans. A great achivement and an ongoing comfort for me while reading or listening.
