Book excerpt: Have you ever blamed God when your life was turned upside down? Our heroin Kristen does after her parents are burned at the stake, leaving her lost and abandoned in a Massachusetts forest in 1692. Doubt crawled into her heart and mind.

Share the joys and pains of Kristin as she is thrust in a spiritual battle for her soul. "An Angel's Sorrow" will leave you mesmerized and frightened as you picture yourself in Kristen's shoes.

Download or read book The Sorrow of Angels written by Jon Kalman Stefansson and published by MacLehose Press. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is three weeks since the boy came to town, carrying a book of poetry to return to the old sea captain-the poetry Bárour died for. Three weeks, but already Bárour's ghost has faded. Snow falls so heavily that it binds heaven and earth together. As the villagers gather in the inn to drink schnapps and coffee while the boy reads to them from Hamlet, Jens the postman stumbles in half-dead, having almost frozen to his horse. On his next journey to the fjords Jens is accompanied by the boy, and both must risk their lives for each other, and for an unusual item of mail. The Sorrow of Angels is a timeless and powerful story that evokes the struggle of man against the ferocious majesty of nature. Asked by The Independent what inspired him to write these three novels, Stefánsson named his first visit to the landscape of Iceland's West Fjords. "It was like a punch in the solar plexus . . . The mountains seemed to be saying, 'Why aren't you writing about us?"

Book excerpt: After coming through the blizzard that almost cost them everything, Jens and the boy are far from home, in a fishing community at the edge of the world. Taken in by the village doctor, the boy once again has the sense of being brought back from the grave. But this is a strange place, with otherworldly inhabitants, including flame-haired Álfheiður, who makes him wonder whether it is possible to love two women at once; he had believed his heart was lost to Ragnheiður, the daughter of the wealthy merchant in the village to which he must now inexorably return. Set in the awe-inspiring wilderness of the extreme north, The Heart of Man is a profound exploration of life, love and desire, written with a sublime simplicity. In this conclusion to an audacious trilogy, Stefánsson brings a poet's eye and a philosopher's insight to a tale worthy of the sagasmiths of old.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tears for self are an overflow of the superfluous possessions of self. Smiles of benevolence, joy, sadness, bitterness. We weep in gladness and weep in pain. Those chained to previous actions rejoice and weep from life to life. When frightened by the tears of pain, they seek asylum from the world and themselves in the living god within. Their tears move others and propel them to action. Like the swan song that moves man and beast. Tears are the moisture of sentient life. Before thy eyes can see they must be incapable of tears. The tears watering the parched soil of pain and sorrow, bring forth the fruits of Karmic retribution. When thy mind rises above the illusion of separateness and remains calm and unruffled at all times, then the eyes become incapable of tears for self but tearful for the woes of others. Only Compassion’s pure waters can sweeten the ocean’s bitter waves. Angels weep at the sight of human sorrow. Their tears impart their virtues to precious stones and metals and, by Divine Compassion, They irrigate the fields of charity immortal. Only Compassion’s pure waters can sweeten the Ocean’s bitter waves and lift the veil of darkness from the material world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Epic . . . Rambunctious . . . Highly entertaining' New York Times 'All we do, mija, is love. Love is the answer. Nothing stops it. Not borders. Not death.' In his final days, beloved and ailing patriarch Miguel Angel de La Cruz, affectionately called Big Angel, has summoned his entire clan for one last legendary birthday party. But as the party approaches, his mother, nearly one hundred, dies, transforming the weekend into a farewell doubleheader. Among the guests is Big Angel's half brother, known as Little Angel, who must reckon with the truth that although he shares a father with his siblings, he has not, as a half gringo, shared a life. Across two bittersweet days in their San Diego neighbourhood, the revellers mingle among the palm trees and cacti, celebrating the lives of Big Angel and his mother, and recounting the many inspiring tales that have passed into family lore, the acts both ordinary and heroic that brought these citizens to a fraught and sublime country and allowed them to flourish in the land they have come to call home. Teeming with brilliance and humor, authentic at every turn, The House of Broken Angels is Luis Alberto Urrea at his best, and cements his reputation as a storyteller of the first rank.

During the last five years of his life, best-selling spiritual author Henri J. M. Nouwen became close to The Flying Rodleighs, a trapeze troupe in a traveling circus. Like Nouwen’s own life, a trapeze act is full of artistry, exhilarating successes, crushing failures and continual forgiveness. He wrote about his experience in a genre new to him: creative non-fiction. In Flying, Falling, Catching, Nouwen's colleague and friend Carolyn Whitney-Brown presents his unpublished trapeze writings framed by the true story of his rescue through a hotel window by paramedics during his first heart attack. Readers will meet Nouwen as a spiritual risk taker who was transformed through his engagement with these trapeze artists, as well as his participation in the Civil Rights movement, his life in community with people with intellectual disabilities, his personal growth through friendships during the 1990s AIDS pandemic, and other unexpected encounters. What will we do with our lives, and with whom will we do it? In this story of flying and catching, Nouwen invites us all to let go and fly, even when we are afraid of falling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastor Jim Knotek has experienced quite a few miracles and healings among his parishioners and, especially, at home with his family. Miracles certainly fascinate us; even so, we must focus not on the miracle but on the miracle-maker, Jesus Christ. There would be no other reason for a miracle, unless Jesus was at the very center of it. He and His angels are continually watching over. Angels and miracles are interrelated, intertwined under all conditions and circumstances. As Gods children, we are in a very unique relationship with Him and His angels. Angels and Miracles, Grief and Hope, includes the word grief because most of us have had firsthand knowledge of death and grief among our immediate family, relatives, or friends. Grief and death are not pleasant thoughts, but unfortunately, we cant get away from those unwelcome intruders. The sadness and desolation of dealing with Alzheimers disease and the trauma of losing a spouse are wrapped in the knowledge that there is life after death and that Jesus Christ is God! In his memoir, Pastor Knotek tells his story and shares the glory of God and the place that miracles and angels play in the biggest miraclelife!

The story tore at my heart and, more than once, I felt my eyes well up with tears. Then I felt the joy of Ms. Vijay's faith that God would rejoin them in heaven. I felt the powerful strength that Rebecca showed throughout this book, and I'm so grateful that she share this very personal part of her life with us. I am proud to say that I am a *virtual* acquaintance of Rebecca's." Denise "This is one of those rare reads where the author has the ability to connect with you on a soul level in pure honesty. Even though I've never lost a child, I have lost family members and could connect with her emotional journey. The poignant thing this book points out, is that the usual consoling comments we receive from people, often times cause more stress than help. A reminder to us all to be aware of our words during times of grief and stress." Brenda "Very moving, honest and praise-worthy. It will take you on a very intimate and emotional ride. Highly recommended." Elen "It's true that the emotional pain hurts more than physical pain..." Sheetal
