  • Pearl S. Buck and Phenylketonuria (PKU)
    Journal of the History of the Neurosciences 2004, Vol. 13, No. 1, pp. 44–57 Pearl S. Buck and Phenylketonuria (PKU) Stanley Finger? and Shawn E. Christ Psychology Department, Washington University, St. Louis, MO, USA ABSTRACT In 1921, Pearl S. Buck gave birth to a daughter, Carol, who became severely retarded and was eventually institutionalized at the Vineland Training School in New Jersey. To help pay for her daughter’s care, Buck wrote The Good Earth in 1931, and then other novels and biographies about her life in China, for which she was awarded the Nobel and Pulitzer Prizes, and honored around the world. Years later, she published The Child Who Never Grew, a short piece about her daughter’s retardation that also revealed her desperate search for answers and good clinical care. Asbjørn Følling distinguished phenylketonuria (PKU) from other forms of childhood retardation in the mid-1930s, and new assays and biochemical findings eventually led to ways to circumvent the devastating effects of PKU. But for Carol Buck, these advances came too late. It was not until the 1960s that physicians confirmed that her severe retardation was caused by PKU. Keywords: Pearl S. Buck, Carol Buck, Phenylketonuria (PKU), Mental Retardation, Asbjørn Følling, Vineland Training School, Rehabilitation, The Child Who Never Grew She wrote many fine books and won notable Three months after her birth, the Sydenstrickers prizes, but her major humanitarian work was returned to Chinkiang (Zhenjiang), a port city with children, some of them sadly stigmatized on the Yangtze River in the Kiangsu (Jiangsu) like her own daughter.

Grace: A Reflection on the Novels of Marilynne Robinson the simple joy of the words on the page. For this joy in words is what makes her writing so memo- rable: each sentence is delectable, meant to be read and then re-read, reveled in and embraced before the reader moves on to see what the next sentence might bring. Her novels call the reader to slow down, to notice the beauty of the ordinary, both in the beauty of her writing and the beauty of the lives she writes about. If one could take a common kitchen sponge, saturate the sponge with the words from her novels, and then wring out the sponge, what one would see drip out slowly would unmis- takably be grace.

  • 2020-2021 Granville High School Summer Reading List
    2020-2021 Granville High School Summer Reading List Reading over the summer months is critical for students to maintain literary skill. Research shows that students who do not read over the summer demonstrate losses in reading achievement from the end of one school year to the beginning of the next. Therefore, we believe that summer reading is an essential component of the Granville High School curriculum. Students entering grades 9-12 are required to complete their summer reading selections by the first day of the school year. Assessments will vary based on the level of the course, and the GHS Website contains assignments that are intended for completion in conjunction with the reading. Book summaries are provided below courtesy of Barnes and Noble in order to assist in making selections. Works indicated with a (*) symbol are recommended for students enrolled in the Global Scholars Program. Literature Survey and Composition REQUIRED CHOICE READING: Choose ONE book from the following list--you will also be required to view a film version of your chosen book in order to complete the summer assignment. See the film chart on page 2 for an overview. Students who were enrolled in Discovery may not choose Call of the Wild or Tom Sawyer. Alcott, Lousia May - Little Women Generations of readers young and old, male and female, have fallen in love with the March sisters. Here are talented tomboy and author-to-be Jo, tragically frail Beth, beautiful Meg, and romantic, spoiled Amy, united in their devotion to each other and their struggles to survive in New England during the Civil War.

  • ANALYSIS Garry, Patr
    REVIEW In the Shadow of War (2006) Patrick Garry Patrick Garry is a professor of law and the prolific author of both scholarly books and allegorical novels in the tradition of Nathaniel Hawthorne, Flannery O’Connor, and Marilynne Robinson. Allegory is a rare achievement that distinguishes the most evolved literary fiction and is characteristic of many classics. The narrator Glen begins In the Shadow of War by inviting the reader to participate with him in trying to understand the meaning of his brother Ricky, which turns out to be the meaning of life. When the reader learns that the story is going to be about the narrator’s relationship to a retarded brother—“Who wants to read about a retard?”--it is both a straightforward forewarning on page 1 and a test. Like Bartleby in Melville’s great story, Ricky is a mirror reflecting the nature of other characters (most of whom are retarded in various less visible ways) and of the reader as well: Glen says, “That was how I often judged people--by how I thought they would react to retards.” We do not blame Glen in the least for what happens to Ricky, because he is so young, because he tries so hard and obviously loves Ricky, because he is so honest and critical of himself, because we (most readers) would never be able to do as well by Ricky as Glen, and because Glen is the one who actually has the responsibility. We admire him all the way because he is so much better a person than we think we would be in such a situation.

  • Oprah's Book Club & Book Club
    OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB & BOOK CLUB 2.0 Below is a listing of books highlighting authors and selections chosen by Oprah Winfrey for viewers of her former TV show to read and discuss. Started in 1996, it began as a monthly book club, but now, titles are added sporadically by. DATE TITLE, AUTHOR, CALL NUMBER & DESCRIPTION THE DEEP END OF THE OCEAN, by Jacquelyn Mitchard Call Number: F MITCHARD It happened in a flash. One minute Beth Cappadora was the happily married mother of three. The next, one of 09/1996 them, 3-year-old Ben, was missing. Was he kidnapped? No one knew, and as minutes lengthened into hours, days, weeks, months, years, even the woman police officer obsessed with the case gave up hope. But suddenly something so unexpected happens, it changes everything. SONG OF SOLOMON, by Toni Morrison Call Number: F MORRISON 10/1996 Milkman Dead was born shortly after a neighborhood eccentric hurled himself off a rooftop in a vain attempt at flight. For the rest of his life he, too, will be trying to fly. With this brilliantly imagined novel, Toni Morrison transfigures the coming-of-age story as audaciously as Saul Bellow or Gabriel García Márquez. THE BOOK OF RUTH, by Jane Hamilton Call Number: Available on Hoopla 11/1996 Winner of the 1989 PEN/Hemingway Foundation Award for best first novel, this exquisite book confronts real-life issues of alienation and violence from which the author creates a stunning testament to the human capacity for mercy, compassion and love. SHE’S COME UNDONE, by Wally Lamb Call Number: eBook on OverDrive Meet Dolores Price.

  • Addition to Summer Letter
    May 2020 Dear Student, You are enrolled in Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition for the coming school year. Bowling Green High School has offered this course since 1983. I thought that I would tell you a little bit about the course and what will be expected of you. Please share this letter with your parents or guardians. A.P. Literature and Composition is a year-long class that is taught on a college freshman level. This means that we will read college level texts—often from college anthologies—and we will deal with other materials generally taught in college. You should be advised that some of these texts are sophisticated and contain mature themes and/or advanced levels of difficulty. In this class we will concentrate on refining reading, writing, and critical analysis skills, as well as personal reactions to literature. A.P. Literature is not a survey course or a history of literature course so instead of studying English and world literature chronologically, we will be studying a mix of classic and contemporary pieces of fiction from all eras and from diverse cultures. This gives us an opportunity to develop more than a superficial understanding of literary works and their ideas. Writing is at the heart of this A.P. course, so you will write often in journals, in both personal and researched essays, and in creative responses. You will need to revise your writing. I have found that even good students—like you—need to refine, mature, and improve their writing skills. You will have to work diligently at revising major essays.
