The grizzled old German sat at the table in the Gasthaus smoking cigarettes and staring intently at our driver--a young, black private from Louisiana. On the floor surrounding the old man sat the most beautiful carvings of Mary and Jesus I had ever seen. Josef, the Woodcarver, was an ex-NAZI and storm trooper who fought at Stalingrad. Captured by the Allies, he was imprisoned in the American South. In a beautiful, poignant moment that I will never forget, Josef reached across the table, grasped the young private's hand, and said, "I love the blacks." But why? The Woodcarver is a collection of feature stories on matters of faith, written by author and political columnist William Kevin Stoos, appearing in various international religious publications over the past two decades. These true stories illustrate how the Holy Spirit, acting through people and serendipitous events, changes lives.

Download or read book Common Reading written by Stefan Collini and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2008 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this series of penetrating and attractively readable essays, Stefan Collini explores aspects of the literary and intellectual culture of Britain from the early twentieth century to the present. Collini focuses on critics and historians who wrote for a non-specialist readership, and on the periodicals and other genres through which they attempted to reach that readership. Among the critics discussed are Cyril Connolly, V.S. Pritchett, Aldous Huxley, Rebecca West, Edmund Wilson, and George Orwell, while the historians include A.L. Rowse, Arthur Bryant, E.H. Carr, and E.P. Thompson. There are also essays on wider themes such as the fate of 'general' periodicals, the history of reading, the role of criticism, changing conceptions of 'culture', the limitations of biography, and the functions of universities. Explicitly addressed to 'the non-specialist reader', these essays make some of the fruits of detailed scholarly research in various fields available to a wider audience in a succinct and elegant manner. Stefan Collini has been acclaimed as one of the most brilliant essayists of our time, and this collection shows him at his subtle, perceptive, and trenchant best. The book will appeal to (and delight) readers interested in literature, history, and contemporary cultural debate.
