My son, Mark Ostrander, was a vibrant and popular young man. In Osage, Iowa, high school, he was on the honor roll, and lettered in track, wrestling, and football. He was Homecoming King, loved to ski, and played drums in the Osage Precisionnaires Drum and Bugle Corp. He won many dance contests and went to Hollywood to compete on Deney Terrio's "Dance Fever" when he was just 18. In college, he was named to the North Iowa Area Community College (NIACC) Dean's List and named to the cast for the production of M-A-S-H. He danced in the Community Theatre Production of '"Oklahoma." In May, he graduated with honors from NIACC when he received his Associate Degree in Science. In October of the following year, he enrolled in the University of Iowa to pursue Dentistry. When Mark was 21, he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and his journey through life became a disaster at every turn. In and out of mental hospitals, he persevered and managed to pop back up with each setback. In 1988, at age 28, he graduated from Control Data Institute in Dallas, Texas, with a 96.1 GPA and received his Computer Technology degree. He had such high aspirations, but with every step forward there were always two steps back. At age 34, Mark was left disabled after he attempted to take his life. The 22 years that followed were filled with amazing determination and dedication by Mark, his family, and his friends as he recovered from his injuries. After spending many months in hospitals and rehabilitation facilities in Texas, his options for a place to live were reduced to nursing homes. Outrageous errors, oversights and neglect were widespread in the nursing homes where Mark resided. The absence of training among nursing home personnel was not unusual and the staff members' horrendous lack of judgment led to unsafe circumstances. Poor communication between administration and staff resulted in dangerous situations and unsanitary practices promoted the spread of disease. In order to prevent mistakes from being made and to avert negligent care, it was extremely important that I closely monitored Mark's stay in each nursing home. He was often exposed to illegal practices like "dumping," unwarranted discharge, and retaliation. I learned what to expect from the nursing homes and wasn't afraid to ask questions. Mark's phenomenal determination to succeed and my constant vigilance were important factors which helped Mark achieve many steps toward his recovery. Mark loved his music and his computer, and toward the end of his rehabilitation, he had made great strides in his physical and mental recovery, despite having had to tolerate the many nursing home nightmares.

A People Book of the Week & a Kirkus Best Nonfiction of the Year An exquisite and inspiring memoir about one mother’s unimaginable choice in the face of oppression and abuse in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. In the days before Homeira Qaderi gave birth to her son, Siawash, the road to the hospital in Kabul would often be barricaded because of the frequent suicide explosions. With the city and the military on edge, it was not uncommon for an armed soldier to point his gun at the pregnant woman’s bulging stomach, terrified that she was hiding a bomb. Frightened and in pain, she was once forced to make her way on foot. Propelled by the love she held for her soon-to-be-born child, Homeira walked through blood and wreckage to reach the hospital doors. But the joy of her beautiful son’s birth was soon overshadowed by other dangers that would threaten her life. No ordinary Afghan woman, Homeira refused to cower under the strictures of a misogynistic social order. Defying the law, she risked her freedom to teach children reading and writing and fought for women’s rights in her theocratic and patriarchal society. Devastating in its power, Dancing in the Mosque is a mother’s searing letter to a son she was forced to leave behind. In telling her story—and that of Afghan women—Homeira challenges you to reconsider the meaning of motherhood, sacrifice, and survival. Her story asks you to consider the lengths you would go to protect yourself, your family, and your dignity.

Drawing of the postmodern perspective and concerns that informed her groundbreaking Terpsichore in Sneakers, Sally Banes’s Writing Dancing documents the background and developments of avant-garde and popular dance, analyzing individual artists, performances, and entire dance movements. With a sure grasp of shifting cultural dynamics, Banes shows how postmodern dance is integrally connected to other oppositional, often marginalized strands of dance culture, and considers how certain kinds of dance move from the margins to the mainstream. Banes begins by considering the act of dance criticism itself, exploring its modes, methods, and underlying assumptions, and examining the work of other critics. She traces the development of contemporary dance from the early work of such influential figures as Merce Cunningham and George Balanchine to such contemporary choreographers as Molissa Fenley, Karole Armitage, and Michael Clark. She analyzes the contributions of the Judson Dance Theatre and the Workers’ Dance League, the emergence of Latin postmodern dance in New York, and the impact of black jazz in Russia. In addition, Banes explores such untraditional performance modes as breakdancing and the “drunk dancing” of Fred Astaire. Ebook Edition Note: Ebook edition note: All images have been redacted.
