Download or read book Matt Talbot written by Eddie Doherty and published by Combermere, Ont. : Madonna House Publications. This book was released on 2001 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matt's amazing journey, told with dramatic force by a veteran journalist... At first there was nothing extraordinary about Matt Talbot: he was just another heavy drinker and brawler on the bleak and desperate streets of late nineteenth-century Dublin. His life was full of despair, hard labour, and hard drinking. But as Eddie Doherty shows in this fast-paced, inspiring biography, Matt Talbot soon became extraordinary! It began when he took "the Pledge," a promise never to drink again--and kept it. Soon he was directing all his energy to becoming a saint. He still lived and worked where he had when he was a common drunkard, but now his inner life was filled with fervent prayer and heroic sacrifice. Unnoticed except by a few of his closest family members and friends, he grew in holiness to an extraordinary degree right up until his death in 1925. The Vatican is now considering Matt Talbot for canonization. You can find in his humbled and holy life comforting and challenging evidence that holiness is possible today and that no matter how troubled your past has been--or your present may be--you, too, can become a saint.! "Though Matt's life is an encouraging success story particularly for addicts, his meaning in the modern world extends far beyond being the patron of ex-alcoholics. There is something in his story for everyone--worker, sinner, Christian, skeptic, apostle--a glimmer of greatness, humility, and charity that cannot fail to inspire and amaze." - Bruce Publishing. "With the few known facts available regarding Matt Talbot's life, Eddie Doherty, experienced newspaperman and author, weaves an inspiring and dramatic account of the incidents which produced Matt's great transformation... This book, like all of Eddie Doherty's books, is alive with facts and people. The usual Doherty touch is present--punchy sentences and journalistic style." -- Alice M. Nicholson,Books onTrial.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At My Fathers Barbers, Mataio (Matt) Faafetai Malietoa Brown offers men a haircut with a difference: a safe space to be seen and heard without judgement. From his barbershop chair, Matt has inspired a new generation of New Zealand men to break free from the cycle of abuse — and those men have in turn inspired him and his wife, Sarah, to create the global anti-violence movement, She Is Not Your Rehab. In this raw and unflinching book Matt shares his own story and those of his clients, of surviving family violence and abuse, and how they were able to find healing and turn their lives around. He introduces the people and concepts that have helped him heal, and gives readers the tools they need to begin their own journeys. She is Not Your Rehab demonstrates the power of vulnerability and honesty in addressing pain and shame, and shows how anyone can empower themselves by taking responsibility for their own healing.

Book excerpt: "Bernard MacLaverty’s powerful novel is a love story as affecting and tragic as you could want." —USA Today When it was first published, Bernard MacLaverty’s masterpiece was hailed by Michael Gorra in the New York Times Book Review as "a marvel of technical perfection…a most moving novel whose emotional impact is grounded in a complete avoidance of sentimentality…[It] will become the Passage to India of the Troubles.” For Cal, a Northern Irish teenager who, against his will, is involved in the terrible war between Catholics and Protestants, some of the choices are devastatingly simple: he can work in the slaughterhouse that nauseates him or join the dole line; he can brood on his past or plan a future with the beautiful, widowed Marcella for whose grief he shares more than a little responsibility.
