Then he meets skittish cyclist Bill Moilet, and soon strange dreams and thoughts of Bill distract Calvin from his misery... until Calvin breaks his leg and his Olympic ambitions crumble. Cal's injury does have one upside: it brings him closer to Bill, who offers to help him out while he's recovering. But whenever they start to get too close, Bill clams up or disappears. To add to Cal's frustration, living with a full-leg cast proves to be a miserable experience. When Bill finally begins to open up to Cal, the strange dreams become more vivid--dreams, Cal learns, that they share. Can the boys decipher what their subconscious minds are trying to tell them, or is history doomed to repeat itself? 610 $aFiction 610 $aGay men 700 $aCordoba$b Jax$01435492 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162669003321 996 $aFate Lends a Leg$93593071 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03145nam 2200601Ia 450 001 9910963008303321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9781438406268 010 $a1438406266 035 $a(CKB)2670000000233920 035 $a(EBL)3408282 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000196765 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11937329 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000196765 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10154335 035 $a(PQKB)10345054 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3408282 035 $a(DE-B1597)735653 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781438406268 035 $a(Perlego)2842825 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000233920 100 $a19910627d1992 ub 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aManaging change in old age $ethe control of meaning in an institutional setting /$fHaim Hazan 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aAlbany $cState University of New York Press$dc1992 215 $a1 online resource (xxi, 182 pages) 225 0 $aSUNY series in anthropology and Judaic studies 311 0 $a9780791410639 311 0 $a0791410633 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p.

Hazan looks carefully at the universal concerns of old age, specifically examining the nature of everyday life in the institutional setting. He shows the workings of the micropolitics of control in an old age home and the tension between controlling dwindling resources and sustaining life-long meaning for residents. He also effectively brings out distinctive features of the Israeli situation, its cultural and bureaucratic codes. Hazan's study of the life cycle, based in the anthropology of process, is a senstive portrayal of the dynamics of institutionalized elderly in a complex society. 410 0$aSUNY Series in Anthropology and Judaic Studies 606 $aOlder people$xInstitutional care$zIsrael 606 $aOlder people$zIsrael$xAttitudes 606 $aOld age homes$zIsrael$xManagement 615 0$aOlder people$xInstitutional care 615 0$aOlder people$xAttitudes. 615 0$aOld age homes$xManagement. 676 $a305.26/09 700 $aHazan$b Haim$01087535 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963008303321 996 $aManaging change in old age$94346785 997 $aUNINA
