Book excerpt: From the author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Small Great Things and Mad Honey, a novel exploring the story of a young woman overcome by the demands of having a family. Paige has only a few vivid memories of her mother, who abandoned her at five years old. Now, having left her father behind in Chicago for dreams of art school and marriage to an ambitious young doctor, she finds herself with a child of her own. But her mother's absence and shameful memories of her past force her to doubt whether she could ever be capable of bringing joy and meaning into the life of her child, gifts her own mother never gave. Harvesting the Heart is written with astonishing clarity and evocative detail, convincing in its depiction of emotional pain, love, and vulnerability, and recalls the writing of Alice Hoffman and Kristin Hannah. Out of Paige's struggle to find wholeness, Jodi Picoult crafts an absorbing novel peopled by richly drawn characters, and explores motherhood with a power and depth only she is capable of. “A brilliant, moving examination of motherhood, brimming with detail and emotion.” —Richmond Times-Dispatch “Jodi Picoult explores the fragile ground of ambivalent motherhood in her lush second novel. This story belongs to… the lucky reader.” —The New York Times Book Review
Download or read book DeForest Kelley Up Close and Personal written by Kristine Smith and published by . This book was released on 2015-12-23 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If not for a question I couldn't answer back in 2000, this book probably would never have been written. When DeForest Kelley's biographer Terry Lee Rioux asked me, "How did you go from being a fan-on the outermost reaches of fandom-to being at Mr. Kelley's bedside when he died?" I was struck speechless. Finally, I responded, "I have no idea. That's something only De could answer. I can't speak for him." Terry persisted: "You know the answer. You just have to connect the dots..." The question pestered me. My 30-plus year association with DeForest Kelley had all just seemed so miraculous to me. That's because I still hadn't come to grips with the reality that De and Carolyn Kelley weren't just being kind to one of their most ardent fans. I had become a friend. Terry's question led me to re-visit the scores of journals and four behemoth three-ring binders that I had filled with the conversations I had painstakingly recorded after each visit and call. You wouldn't think-as crazy about the Kelleys as I was-that I would have forgotten a single moment. But I had. This is how I discovered, for the very first time, the path that our friendship took. My hope is that my precious journey will bring you as close to meeting "the real McCoy" up close and personal as I was blessed to experience.

Download or read book CrossTown written by Loren W. Cooper and published by Red Hen Press. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endeavor Award Finalist: A sorcerer-for-hire investigates his mentor’s death in “a story of murder and revenge set in a world where anything is possible” (Kirkus Reviews). Zethus is a sorcerer—a self-described spiritual thug for hire. He makes his living in CrossTown, a place where the manyworld hypothesis of modern physics manifests itself, where possibilities and probabilities overlap. Caught up in a web of intrigue as he investigates the death of his master, Corvinus, and pursued by agents that want to erase all knowledge of Corvinus’s work, Zethus discovers that the key to his master’s murder lies in the last project he had pursued before his death. The roots of this project lie deep in the past, at the origin of CrossTown’s fractured reality. Once he understands the stakes, Zethus must make the dangerous journey to the cradle of history. The price he must pay to find the answers he seeks will threaten everything he holds dear—including his own humanity. “Thanks to the mind-bending physics theory―made real in Cooper’s novel―that every decision we make creates a new universe, Zethus is able to conduct an investigation into his mentor’s murder that leads him from the Irish folkloric land of Faerie to the horror-novel NightTown, which is populated by vampires, to the science fictional TechTown, suffused with futuristic technology.” ―Publishers Weekly
Download or read book Harvest Us Home written by Rachel Callahan and published by Franciscan Media. This book was released on 2000 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In biblical tradition, the fiftieth year is a holy year, the year of jubilee. Jubilee is a time when Israel was to set captives free, return to one's homeland, recover and reclaim one's roots and family. Harvest Us Home proclaims good news for those in their fiftieth year and beyond, setting them free from old wounds and expectations, giving them hope for a fruitful future. Using imagery from nature, and drawing on psychology, contemporary spirituality and Scripture, Rachel Callahan and Rea McDonnell invite mature readers to tend themselves, their relationships, their memories and their future, in cooperation with the "gardener God" who carefully tends and harvests all people. From the riches of Scripture they offer readers a vision of aging as a time of great wisdom and grace. They draw on contemporary books on aging, including sociological, psychological, medical and philosophical studies. They include poignant accounts of their own experience of aging, as well as the voices of others who write deeply and reflectively of their own journey through the later years of life.
Download or read book Finding Hope and Faith in the Face of Death written by Stephen A. Karol and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-04-11 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about giving people hope and faith, comfort and inspiration when a death occurs. It is based on my experiences throughout my forty-year career as a rabbi in helping my congregants deal with the emotions and thoughts that occur when a loved one dies. I have grown to understand, and have taught about, the importance of community when we are mourners, and of the absolute emotional and spiritual power of prayer. The book includes lessons that I have learned personally and professionally, lessons that are relevant to the very real issues brought on by sorrow and regret. My messages not only educate those who read them but also convey a sense of faith and hope that can positively affect our transition from mourning to living our lives. And, they are valid for Jews and non-Jews alike--those who attend services, and those who don't.
