First published in 1990, this is a sensational and highly controversial novel by one of Korea’s most electrifying contemporary authors. A preposterous coming-of-age story, melding sex, death, and high school in a manner reminiscent of some perverse collision between Georges Bataille and Beverly Cleary, the narrator of this book plows through contemporaneous Korean mores with aplomb, bound for destruction, or maturity—whichever comes first.

This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Endlessly illuminating and a sheer pleasure to read.” —Jack Miles, author of God: A Biography Daring to take the great biblical account of human origins seriously, but without credulity. The most influential story in Western cultural history, the biblical account of Adam and Eve is now treated either as the sacred possession of the faithful or as the butt of secular jokes. Here, acclaimed scholar Stephen Greenblatt explores it with profound appreciation for its cultural and psychological power as literature. From the birth of the Hebrew Bible to the awe-inspiring contributions of Augustine, Dürer, and Milton in bringing Adam and Eve to vivid life, Greenblatt unpacks the story’s many interpretations and consequences over time. Rich allegory, vicious misogyny, deep moral insight, narrow literalism, and some of the greatest triumphs of art and literature: all can be counted as children of our “first” parents.

Tony knows he’s risking his military career when he approaches Adam in front of his SEAL teammates. And Adam, nursing a broken heart, has no interest in a relationship. Still, neither man can deny their instant attraction. Tony didn’t become a SEAL by accepting rejection, and his pursuit of Adam leads to one unforgettable night. But the next morning, Tony is ordered to ship out to Afghanistan with SEAL Team Sixteen, and he’s forced to leave Adam with too much unsaid. As Tony enters a dangerous war zone, Adam has to choose between keeping the home fires burning, or taking a blowtorch, igniting the hope of a new relationship with a perfect-for-him man, and burning it all to the ground. When Tony is injured, the two men must face their feelings for each other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story is real. It has and will happen. We know some of the names but not all. I think we will know them shortly. She shrieked with a joy only innocents have. Horse ran like the wind, carrying her easily on his back. Adam watched her long hair flowing behind her in the wind . . . and he loved her, more than life itself. He loved her so deeply that it caused him to ache in the depths of his very soul. This love story allows us to look into four great and pivotal times in the history of our world, exploring how the greatest gift we received from Father-our life-giving "Free Will"-ended up causing so much heartache to his innocent creation: you and I. God's holy mountain, the center of the Eden Garden, always was God's special place to enjoy his creation. The fall took place here. The cross took place here, as will the Great Religious wars of Megiddo. But I always wondered why there was another hateful rebellion against Father and his holy mountain at the end of Adam's Last Generation-the thousand years we know as the millennium period. Surely, with Jesus's return and all his enemies being destroyed in the Great Tribulation war and only the redeemed entering the New Eden for a thousand years of plenty, with death almost unknown, how could this happen? Why? The story of Adam's Last Generation tells us a lot about ourselves. This is a clear and simple story showing Father's magnificent and pure love for his children and the great lengths he will go to retrieve and protect them. Enjoy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Todd Benson almost died for the freedom to love Adam Soames. Now they face obstacles that once again place both of them in danger. Todd Benson had figured he'd be alone forever. He had the best friend any guy could want in Gabe Staley, and Gabe's partner Mika was okay, too. But a personal life and any kind of true happiness was out of the question. With Todd's bigoted and violent parents, and the Sheriff he worked for trying to torture animals and Gabe, Todd knew he'd do well just to survive his job as a deputy in the small town of Shasta, Texas. Adam Soames needed to get away from the big city. His best friend had found his perfect man and moved away, and Adam felt lost in the city. The opportunity to have his own veterinary practice in a small town sounded perfect. He didn't know he'd soon be living a life he'd only dreamed of—or the cost he and the man he loved would have to pay. Together Todd and Adam face seemingly insurmountable odds, from Todd's recovery from a vicious attack to the prejudices and trials many couples have. Then there's the big shocker of finding out Gabe and Mika aren't humans, exactly, but wolf shifters instead, and a whole new door is opened and trouble soon comes barrelling through it.

Book excerpt: And God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness." A very familiar passage that embodies so much significance: what did the image of God LOOK like in every day life? How did first Adam embody the likeness of such a vast spiritual being in human form? First Adam: Divine Design is a deep spiritual and emotional journey into life in paradise. It goes to great lengths to bring to life the fascinating intricacies of Adam's diverse and divine, yet personal and ever-present Father. This book goes further to explore the splendor of Adam's marriage to his wife Eve, including the spiritual and emotional possibilities birthed from their direct relationship with God. The possibilities must have been endless. The glory must have been consuming. Two people were created precisely, purposefully and perfectly by God with minds free to communicate with God and with each other without restrictions and limitations from sin. First Adam: Divine Design does much to answer questions of, what life might have looked like in paradise, and how a perfect man and perfect woman could have imperfectly lost it all.
Download or read book Adam and Eve in the Armenian Tradition Fifth through Seventeenth Centuries written by Michael E. Stone and published by Society of Biblical Lit. This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 765 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adam and Eve stories are a foundational myth in the Jewish and Christian worlds, and the way they were recounted reveals a great deal about those doing the retelling. How did the Armenians retell these stories? What values do these retellings express about men and women, their life in the world, sin and redemption? Presented here are twelve hundred years of Armenian telling of the Genesis 1–3 stories in an unparalleled collection of all significant narratives of Adam and Eve in Armenian literature—prose and poetry, homilies and commentaries, calendary and mathematical texts—from its inception in the fifth century to the seventeenth century. This seminal resource contributes to the lively current discussion of how biblical and apocryphal traditions were retold, embroidered, and transformed into the lenses through which the Bible itself was read.
