Book excerpt: Alex has spent the majority of his adult life between two very different women—and he can’t make up his mind. Sonia, his wife and business partner, is everything a man would want. Intelligent, gorgeous, charming, and ambitious, she worked tirelessly alongside him to open their architecture firm and to build a life of luxury. But when the seven-year itch sets in, their exhaustion at working long hours coupled with their failed attempts at starting a family get the best of them. Alex soon finds himself kindling an affair with his college lover, Ivona. The young Polish woman who worked in a Catholic mission is the polar opposite of Sonia: dull, passive, taciturn, and plain. Despite having little in common with Ivona, Alex is inexplicably drawn to her while despising himself for it. Torn between his highbrow marriage and his lowbrow affair, Alex is stuck within a spiraling threesome. But when Ivona becomes pregnant, life takes an unexpected turn, and Alex is puzzled more than ever by the mysteries of his heart. Peter Stamm, one of Switzerland’s most acclaimed writers, is at his best exploring the complexities of human relationships. Seven Years is a distinct, sobering, and bold novel about the impositions of happiness in the quest for love.

This enchanting collection of tales, charmingly told by Isabel Wyatt, takes us through the highlights of the year as Sylvia and her friends celebrate festivals and birthdays.

Download or read book The Seven Good Years written by Etgar Keret and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant, life-affirming, and hilarious memoir from a “genius” (The New York Times) and master storyteller. With illustrations by Jason Polan. The seven years between the birth of Etgar Keret’s son and the death of his father were good years, though still full of reasons to worry. Lev is born in the midst of a terrorist attack. Etgar’s father gets cancer. The threat of constant war looms over their home and permeates daily life. What emerges from this dark reality is a series of sublimely absurd ruminations on everything from Etgar’s three-year-old son’s impending military service to the terrorist mind-set behind Angry Birds. There’s Lev’s insistence that he is a cat, releasing him from any human responsibilities or rules. Etgar’s siblings, all very different people who have chosen radically divergent paths in life, come together after his father’s shivah to experience the grief and love that tie a family together forever. This wise, witty memoir—Etgar’s first nonfiction book published in America, and told in his inimitable style—is full of wonder and life and love, poignant insights, and irrepressible humor.

Download or read book The Mirroring of Life before Birth in the Seven Year Periods of Human Life on Earth written by Roland Schrapp and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between death and a new birth on earth, the human being lives through a long cosmic existence in the higher worlds. This is mirrored in the earthly life. Rudolf Steiner described its division into seven-year periods and the connection with the pre-birth existence in the planetary spheres. Apart from this, there is another division including higher spheres of the fixed stars. Rudolf Steiner only gave us a hint. In line whith this and based on his own experiences on the path of spirit discipleship, the author of this book gives examples how these different stages of life between death and rebirth can express themselves in the course of earthly life. He also explains in which of the seven-year periods the conditions for learning something about one's own previous incarnation are particularly favourable. In addition, he describes the connection of the later seven-year periods of earthly life with the Life Spirit (Budhi), as well as the preparation of mankind for receiving it by a development which Rudolf Steiner called the gradual "getting-younger" of mankind, and which started at the times of the primeval Semites in ancient Atlantis. For everyone who follows or aspires to the path of spiritual discipleship or is interested in biography work, a highly recommended book.

Download or read book Understanding End Times Prophecy written by Paul Benware and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

Download or read book Rarest Blue written by Baruch Sterman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, dyed fabrics ranked among the most expensive objects of the ancient Mediterranean world, fetching up to 20 times their weight in gold. Huge fortunes were made from and lost to them, and battles were fought over control of the industry. The few who knew the dyes’ complex secrets carefully guarded the valuable knowledge. The Rarest Blue tells the amazing story of tekhelet, or hyacinth blue, the elusive sky-blue dye mentioned 50 times in the Hebrew Bible. The Minoans discovered it; the Phoenicians stole the technique; Cleopatra adored it; and Jews—obeying a Biblical commandment to affix a single thread of the radiant color to the corner of their garments—risked their lives for it. But with the fall of the Roman Empire, the technique was lost to the ages. Then, in the nineteenth century, a marine biologist saw a fisherman smearing his shirt with snail guts, marveling as the yellow stains turned sky blue. But what was the secret? At the same time, a Hasidic master obsessed with reviving the ancient tradition posited that the source wasn’t a snail at all but a squid. Bitter fighting ensued until another rabbi discovered that one of them was wrong—but had an unscrupulous chemist deliberately deceived him? Baruch Sterman brilliantly recounts the complete, amazing story of this sacred dye that changed the color of history.

Book excerpt: Meet Ellie. She's been married to Jack for seven years, has two occasionally-adorable-but-mostly-demanding children and is about to open a café with her friend, Tilda. But Jack is a soap actor whose long-running character has been killed off, leaving him hanging around the house and getting under the feet of Petra, an au pair too glamorous for her own good - even if she is a dab hand with glitter and glue. Meanwhile Ellie's excitement about the café is making her marriage seem dreary in comparison and when the gorgeous Mark moves in next door (with a wife in tow, admittedly) she asks herself when she and Jack went past their sell-by-date. How can she put the sizzle back into her love life without breaking the rules? And is there really something better out there - or is she just scratching a classic seven year itch?

Download or read book The Seven Year Fix written by Jan Moxley and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2019-03-29 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last ten years Jan Moxley developed this seven-year plan to enable the world to curb global warming and coexist with rapid climate change. This comprehensive plan's sustainable development goal increases global distribution of food, water, electricity, and healthcare services to eliminate famine, poverty, and human-caused emissions of greenhouse gases. This initiative will require numerous newly developed technologies that have been pioneered by entrepreneurs, innovators, scientists, and engineers, which will vastly improve our daily lives without sacrificing our environment or disrupting the normal routines of the citizens of rich industrialized nations. But for citizens of developing nations and poorer countries, immigrants, and millions of refugees (fleeing oppression and the effects of global warming), it will greatly enhance their quality of life. This global plan includes ocean water desalination, organic regenerative agriculture, land-based aquaculture, renewable energy generation, rigid airships (supplying emergency aid to disaster affected areas, and transit to islands and remote regions), high-speed magnetic levitation freight and passenger transit, an improved education curriculum (including “Preventative Security Strategies” instruction in observation techniques for spotting, identifying and reporting potential criminal and terrorist activity), and worldwide healthcare reform including comprehensive medical, dental, and mental health services. It also comprises technology for decreasing cattle methane emissions and environmental cleanup of the earth’s oceans, land, and atmosphere after decades of accumulated manmade pollution. The plan provides reconnaissance to local authorities for protection of endangered wildlife from poachers, and illegal hunters and trappers, and designs its infrastructure around wildlife refuges and migration routes to avoid encroachment into wildlife habitats. As the title indicates, it is a comprehensive global solution and it can be accomplished in a seven-year period, which is three years less than the United States Congress’ proposed “Green New Deal,” and decades less than the ratified United Nations’ “Paris Climate Accord.” This book details how to fund this global solution, how to pay back the massive amount of funding required and, as an incentive for countries to bestow a unanimous endorsement of this plan, how it will ultimately payoff the external national debts of all countries ratifying this global initiative. It is a capitalistic resolution without economic hardship and is not socialistic reform. Governments have failed miserably in their attempts to resolve the earth’s terrestrial threats. As the point of no return rapidly approaches, the people must take the lead and the leaders must follow. Those that believe a vast global solution is too expensive, I ask this question: What value do you place on saving our planet?
