Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times and worldwide bestselling author Isabel Allende returns with a sweeping novel that journeys from present-day Brooklyn to Guatemala in the recent past to 1970s Chile and Brazil that offers “a timely message about immigration and the meaning of home” (People). During the biggest Brooklyn snowstorm in living memory, Richard Bowmaster, a lonely university professor in his sixties, hits the car of Evelyn Ortega, a young undocumented immigrant from Guatemala, and what at first seems an inconvenience takes a more serious turn when Evelyn comes to his house, seeking help. At a loss, the professor asks his tenant, Lucia Maraz, a fellow academic from Chile, for her advice. As these three lives intertwine, each will discover truths about how they have been shaped by the tragedies they witnessed, and Richard and Lucia will find unexpected, long overdue love. Allende returns here to themes that have propelled some of her finest work: political injustice, the art of survival, and the essential nature of—and our need for—love.

It appears that she has won that battle when life turns brutal again with the wrenching loss of her soul mate and, soon afterwards, another cancer diagnosis—this time of metastasis to her bones. She was given just six months to live. Unremitting pain, both physical and psychological, sends her to the depth of despair, where she seeks to end her life. Instead, Muriel embarks on a courageous quest for health that includes not only her body, but also her psyche and spirit. She discovers that all aspects of her being are woven into one tapestry—you cannot permanently heal one part without the others. In the midst of this journey she has her third bout with cancer. This time she has the understanding and tools to walk away from conventional treatment and practice gentle approaches to becoming and staying well. Ultimately, she is led to the joy and serenity that abide in the deep recesses of her soul—her Invincible Summer.

Book excerpt: DURING THE SUMMER OF 2017, I DECIDED I NEEDED A BREAK. Like many of my friends and former colleagues in Washington, D.C., I needed to slow down after several years of a fast-paced job and lots of life changes. That summer, as I worked to reset and create a new vision for my future, I shared my struggles and successes with friends - in person and via text - through quotes, questions and writing prompts. When my friends asked me to re-create that experience for them, I decided to put pen to paper. That is how Invincible Summer came to be. Invincible Summer: A 30-day Reflectional on the Power of Kindness was designed to mirror the way I spent those summer days - focusing on what I was grateful for, reflecting on different aspects of my life and doing something good for myself and others. I love quotes, so each day includes a quote and an accompanying Bible verse that has inspired me. While the idea of journaling can seem overwhelming, the prompts in Invincible Summer are designed for you to enjoy quiet time for however long you have it. Whether you have 5 minutes or 50 minutes, I hope you step out of the hustle and bustle of your everyday life and enjoy some quiet time to reflect and refocus. MAY THIS 30-DAY JOURNEY HELP YOU TO LIVE MORE FULLY IN THE MOMENT, CELEBRATE THE BLESSINGS IN YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE AND MOVE CLOSER TO THE PERSON YOU HOPE TO BE.

Download or read book An Invincible Summer written by Matthew Turk and published by Matthew Turk. This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2022, the possibility of a full-time position as an analyst at one of Chicago’s most renowned investment banks draws the starry-eyed ambitions of an unnamed protagonist better within reach. Straight out of college with only loans to her name, she comes to an excruciating realization, however, lurking just underneath the surface: she’s a small-town girl from a fishing town in Maine—lost in the claptrap hustle-and-bustle of urban life. In an attempt to find a new home, this character throws herself into a romantic relationship that quickly results in coercion into nonconsensual sex. In the amorphous predicament, she cannot discern the assailant’s intentions but rationalizes the decision of sticking with him as he begins to gain international acclaim as a movie producer. Lured again by financial stability and prestige, she dares to want something else—but is it too late? By the end of this story, An Invincible Summer illustrates the complications of a rapidly growing industrialized capitalist country in the 21st century as the narrator struggles to reconcile the potential hard hours of a dead-end job versus trying to maintain romance. Amid struggles with excessive drinking and familial alienation, this character’s widespread relatability reveals the conditions of the modern individual, as well as the depths, and how one balances the light and the dark—now and for the future.

Book excerpt: Lala, the homeless woman known only by her name, has been a familiar sight in San Diego Market for more than ten years. She relies on scraps and the generosity of Rosie, a compassionate restaurant owner, to survive. Her daily routine revolves around laughter, singing, and mumbled words as she wanders the streets in search of food. However, everything changed after a horrific incident occurred. After being violated by three security guards and a market porter, Lala's life changed forever. She became pregnant, and six months after giving birth, she disappeared without a trace, leaving Rosie to care for her daughter. The mystery of Lala's disappearance remained unanswered and filled with sadness. Meanwhile, Captain Jerry Ramos, a special agent, found himself entangled in a web of serial killings that shook the nation to its core. Male victims were being brutally murdered with a shard of glass left in their necks, a gruesome signature that sent chills down Ramos' spine. As he follows the leads and uncovers the dark truths lurking beneath the surface, Ramos is forced to confront the harsh realities of human nature and question the very essence of decency in a world filled with unspeakable horrors.

  • Pages : 111 pages

Download or read book So They Say written by Robert H. Mounce and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A good quotation states an insight so shrewdly that not only do you get it, but you can't seem to forget it. It loves to make you slow down and savor truth. These neat little extended metaphors deserve to be heard, examined, and challenged. Quotations present truth in capsule form. Many reflect the wisdom of earlier times; others bring insights that are fresh and contemporary. Some support the status quo; others challenge it. So They Say is a collection of more than seventy quotes, along with author Robert Mounce's reflections on how they relate to the real world. This interaction turns out to be a battle of worldviews, for as Mounce explains, he could never embrace philosophical materialism because his experience of reality demands something outside of "stuff"--he wants to know where the DNA of the very first living cell came from, and he dissects each quotation accordingly. By approaching each quotation from this supernaturalist point of view, Mounce's So They Say invites you to read, reflect, and enjoy the journey.
