Book excerpt: This is a poignant, compelling and unflinching depiction of the powerful yet delicate bond between a mother and her daughters. Through the Open Window follows the lives of three independent women-Jannat Kaur and her daughters, Mahira and Tamannah-who lead life on their own terms. The story is as much about love and longing as it is about three women, who are able to look at their mistakes honestly, even if the realization happens later. The novel goes back and forth in time and looks at how Jannat came to be where she is today-a managing partner in a leading company, with twin daughters in college. The strand of the past starts during Jannat's college days, with her getting pregnant and then rejected by her then-boyfriend. From the worries of becoming a single mother, to falling in love again with a man who accepts her daughters as his own, her life is shattered yet again and she is forced to raise the twins on her own. Tamannah and Mahira have to deal with their own share of complex and sometimes emotionally wrenching situations. For Tamannah it's the men in her life (much like her mother) and for Mahira it is the everyday fight for her sense of self and her battle to emerge out of the shadow of two fiercely assertive and headstrong female influences she's had all her life. Through the Open Window is a depiction of how love can create, destroy and recreate.

Book excerpt: As a little girl, Trelithia was always loved for her huge smile, high energy, and big dreams about being in the Olympics. This little girl who only saw the world in color was introduced to darkness by foul hands that stripped away her innocence. Trapped by dark secrets from generational traditions and a fear of really living life, Trelithia started down a path of destruction. "Does happiness exist? Can you genuinely love again? Where is God? Why do I overthink? Does fear leave the same way it came?" She battled these questions in every relationship in her adult life. Through the spirals of life that came at her hard and fast and that often left her crumbled and gasping for air, she discovered that there was something strong inside of her waiting to be birthed and found that there was no force dark enough to kill the purpose God put inside of her.
Download or read book An Open Window written by Sri Madhava Ashish and published by Penguin Books India. This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Movement on the spiritual path necessarily involves taking light into the dark corners of our psyche, and it is there that dreams provide an open window into the inner reality. In the early years of the twentieth century, Sigmund Freud and Carl Gustav Jung proposed that, more often than not, dreams represent those thoughts and memories which are unbearably painful and have been relegated to the realm of the unconscious. Unlocking the meanings in these dreams can help people free their mind and feelings from irrational desires, fears and insecurities. This brief but profound book assails the 'conventional' understanding of dreams and their interpretation, drawing attention to a much-neglected aspect of dreams as a source of guidance to the spiritual aspirant. It uses the insights of psychology, but transcends it, to confront the inescapable questions most people should be driven by: What is the purpose of life, and does it all end with death? Laying bare dreams of childhood anxiety, traumas and sexuality—'cleaning the windows' to uncover the deeply buried material that blocks our efforts on the inner path—it then invites contention from 'materialists' in its discussion of subjects beyond psychology such as precognitive dreams, reincarnation, out-of-the-body experiences, death dreams, and numinous or 'big dreams"-'an open window' through which deeper, non-physical levels of reality can shine. Drawing on examples from real life, Sri Madhava Ashish teaches the 'language of dreams', ensuring a better understanding and awareness of the unconscious self, guiding the reader on the path to mental and spiritual freedom.

Book excerpt: Mothers, fathers, children, and grandparents ... both the young and the old, the rich and the poor ... went away in the early years of TB sanatoriums to recover at hospitals where, even in winter, they slept by open windows. Patients sometimes woke to snow and ice on their thick covering of blankets, frozen water in their glasses, and frozen urine in their pots. Today, while tuberculosis casts its sinister shadow back to earlier times by reemerging in new, drug-resistant forms and infecting one-fourth of the world's population, Open Window takes you inside the Lake Julia Tuberculosis Sanatorium in Northern Minnesota where the author's family once lived and worked-a place where a whole community was created and bound together by a bacterium called the tubercle bacillus. This collective biography introduces you to the community made up of: - The determined Dr. Mary Ghostley, who, in the early 1900s, some called a witch for studying medicine - Dedicated employees like the author's parents who met and fell in love at the San- Courageous nurses like Thora Bakken and Wilma Watts, who risked their own health to help others - Patients, like valedictorian- hopeful Art Holmstrom, who worked hard at doing nothing, hoping their treatment would allow them to return home rather than leaving in a wooden box. It is not uncommon when you delve into family history to run into the words "consumption," "tuberculosis," or the "White Plague." After reading "Open Window," you will have a better understanding of the struggles of family members who were stricken with this illness.Open Window's more than 135 photos make it a visual history as well as a compelling story about the Lake Julia Tuberculosis Sanatorium in Northern Minnesota.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the body of journalism professor Joseph Teller is found outside his office building on the Minton State University campus, questions are raised as to whether he fell or committed suicide. Both seem plausible since the open window in his office sits very low, and he lost his wife to cancer a little over a year ago. Kate Cameron, a retired police officer and current real estate broker, gets involved when her boyfriend, editor of the local paper and former student of Teller's, asks her to investigate the death in order to make certain the truth is revealed. She soon discovers there are a number of less obvious reasons for Teller's death. Adding to Kate's woes, Bianca Fitzsimmons, a loose-cannon student intern on the paper, interferes in the investigation, although she sometimes seems more interested in having a romantic relationship with Kate's boyfriend. As the investigation proceeds, Kate finds that she must not only reevaluate the evidence concerning Teller's death but also her own personal life.
