Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It begins as an assignment for English class: Write a letter to a dead person. Laurel chooses Kurt Cobain because her sister, May, loved him. And he died young, just like May did. Soon, Laurel has a notebook full of letters to people like Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse, Amelia Earhart, Heath Ledger, and more -- though she never gives a single one of them to her teacher. She writes about starting high school, navigating new friendships, falling in love for the first time, learning to live with her splintering family. And, finally, about the abuse she suffered while May was supposed to be looking out for her. Only then, once Laurel has written down the truth about what happened to herself, can she truly begin to accept what happened to May. And only when Laurel has begun to see her sister as the person she was -- lovely and amazing and deeply flawed -- can she begin to discover her own path in this stunning debut from Ava Dellaira, Love Letters to the Dead.

Book excerpt: A missing woman leads her twin sister on a twisted scavenger hunt in this clever debut novel with eccentric, dysfunctional characters who will keep you guessing until the end—for readers of Luckiest Girl Alive and The Wife Between Us. Ava has her reasons for running away to Paris. But when she receives the shocking news that her twin sister, Zelda, is dead, she is forced to return home to her family’s failing vineyard in upstate New York. Knowing Zelda’s penchant for tricks and deception, Ava is not surprised when she receives her twin’s cryptic message from beyond the grave. Following her sister’s trail of clues, Ava immerses herself in Zelda’s drama and her outlandish circle of friends and lovers, and soon finds herself confronted with dark family legacies and twisted relationships. Is Zelda trying to punish Ava for leaving? Or is she simply trying to write her own ending? Caite Dolan-Leach’s debut thriller is a literary scavenger hunt for secrets hidden everywhere from wine country to social media, and buried at the dysfunctional heart of one utterly unforgettable family.

Dolan-Leach revels in toying with both Ava and her audience . . . and the result is captivating.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Draws you in like you are part of the story itself, living and breathing alongside the compelling characters as they uncover the dark secrets of their complicated family.”—Wendy Walker, author of All Is Not Forgotten “Push-pull tension . . . This book is wine-soaked yet lucid, comforting and frightening, asking the big questions about intimacy and loyalty.”—Caroline Kepnes, author of You

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From a Living Dead Man NE night last year in Paris I was strongly impelled to take up a pencil and write, though What I was to write about I had no idea. Yielding to the impulse, my hand was seized as if from the outside, and a remarkable message of a personal nature came, followed by the signature X. The purport of the message was clear, but the signature puzzled me. The following day I showed this writing to a friend, asking her if she had any idea who X was.

Download or read book Letters from a Living Dead Man written by Elsa Barker and published by . This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology consists of Letters from a Living Dead Man, War Letters From a Living Dead Man, and Last Letters From a Living Dead Man. Critics sometimes complain that we get nothing meaningful from spirit communication. They say that it is just bits of obscure information and trivia that may serve as evidence for survival of consciousness after death but that it tells us nothing about the afterlife environment. Such claims are clearly false. I have scores of books in my library in which communicating spirits have given detailed reports on afterlife conditions. One of the very best books in this regard is "Letters from a Living Dead Man," the first of a trilogy. I discovered it in a used-book store some 20 years ago and was mesmerized by the wealth of information coming from Judge David Patterson Hatch through the hand of Elsa Barker, an American teacher, poet, author, and playwright. "I enter your mind, putting myself in absolute telepathic rapport with your mind, impressing upon your mind itself the things I wish to say," Hatch, who transitioned to the spirit world in 1912, explained to Barker, who was in a semi-trance state when receiving the "letters." Beginning in 1914, Judge Hatch explained what he had encountered in his new existence. He told of his initial confusion, his struggles, his adjustments, his encounters with other souls, his observations, his teachers, his activities, and his progress. In the process, he offered much philosophy and wisdom. "If you could only get hold of the idea of immortal life and cling to it!" he offered. "If you could realize yourself as being without beginning and without end then you might commence to do things worthwhile." If you are going on a trip to a foreign country, you'll likely prepare for the trip by reading about your destination in advance. Since we are all destined to make a very big "trip" at the end of our lives, it makes only sense to find out as much as possible now so that the journey is a pleasant one. I can think of no better reference than the "Letters" trilogy to prepare for that journey. Michael E. Tymn, Vice-President Academy of Spirituality and Paranormal Studies, Inc. & Author of The Afterlife Revealed: What Happens After We Die.

Book excerpt: #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A profoundly moving spiritual journey through our system of capital punishment and an unprecedented look at the human consequences of the death penalty • "Stunning moral clarity.” —The Washington Post Book World • Basis for the award-winning major motion picture starring Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn "Sister Prejean is an excellent writer, direct and honest and unsentimental. . . . She almost palpably extends a hand to her readers.” —The New York Times Book Review In 1982, Sister Helen Prejean became the spiritual advisor to Patrick Sonnier, the convicted killer of two teenagers who was sentenced to die in the electric chair of Louisiana’s Angola State Prison. In the months before Sonnier’s death, the Roman Catholic nun came to know a man who was as terrified as he had once been terrifying. She also came to know the families of the victims and the men whose job it was to execute—men who often harbored doubts about the rightness of what they were doing. Out of that dreadful intimacy comes a profoundly moving spiritual journey through our system of capital punishment. Here Sister Helen confronts both the plight of the condemned and the rage of the bereaved, the fears of a society shattered by violence and the Christian imperative of love. On its original publication in 1993, Dead Man Walking emerged as an unprecedented look at the human consequences of the death penalty. Now, some two decades later, this story—which has inspired a film, a stage play, an opera and a musical album—is more gut-wrenching than ever, stirring deep and life-changing reflection in all who encounter it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Letters From the Living Dead Man: Written Down In the Spring of 1914 there was published in London and New York a book of mine called "Letters From a Living Dead Man," being automatic writings from an American Judge and teacher of philosophy who had been known to his intimate friends as "X." There were circumstances connected with the writing of that book, explained in some detail in the Introduction, which made any other hypothesis than that of genuine communication from the other world seem untenable to me. It began, for instance, some days before I knew in Paris that my friend had died on the Pacific coast of America.

Book excerpt: "It is hard to say which makes for the more compelling narrative: the life of jazz great Jelly Roll Morton or the detective work that Phil Pastras undertook in putting together this engaging book. Dead Man Blues tells both these tales admirably, drawing on a treasure-trove of previously unknown material. It is both an important contribution to jazz scholarship and a fascinating piece of storytelling."—Ted Gioia, author of The History of Jazz and West Coast Jazz "Meticulously researched, including primary source material recently uncovered by the author, Dead Man Blues is not only a masterfully written, definitive account of Jelly Roll Morton's west coast years, but also a penetrating psychological and social study of the man and the forces that drove and shaped him."—Steve Isoardi, co-author of Central Avenue Sounds "A must-read for all jazz aficionados."—Gerald Wilson "One of the best books ever written about Jelly Roll Morton."—Gerald Wiggins, jazz pianist

Book excerpt: Harvey Milk, Larry Itliong, John Lennon, Woody Guthrie... My Letters to Dead People is legendary political consultant Richie Ross s epistolary exploration into dozens of historical, personal, professional and influential figures of the last 40 years. First, a star with Cesar Chavez. Then, a young campaign hot shot in the Leo McCarthy-Howard Berman speakership war. And, eventually, dubbed by the California Journal as Willie Brown s warlord. Richie Ross has come a long way from his early days working street-level on campaigns, night clerking for free rent just north of San Francisco s Tenderloin, and growing up with kids from housing projects as they held him down and took turns pissing on him. Since then, he has been involved in hundreds of campaigns at every level of government. A former chief of staff for California s legendary Assembly Speaker Willie Brown, Ross has worked as a union organizer for the United Farm Workers and a strategist for the hotel workers union.
