Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After publishing two historical novels, Darlene Matule felt compelled to tackle a current problem—the state of marriage in America—the always legal and often sacred joining of one man and one woman. It is no secret—life has changed drastically since 1956. She asked herself, How can I promote the amazing blessings that marriage can bring—in today’s climate? What promise can I bring to college students—today? To others? Matule’s answer is Sixty Shades of Love. Her memoir reveals how she and her husband are more in love after sixty years than they were on the day they were married—despite spiritual, marital, financial, in-law, and health problems that would cause most couples to shout, ”Enough!” Sixty Shades of Love shows millennials it is possible to find joy in a sacramental marriage. It encourages baby-boomers to give their vows another chance. It reminds seniors of the fulfillment they already have enjoyed in their own long-term commitment. Through the years, Matule found that communication, faith, determination, and the ability to adapt despite life’s surprises resulted in the most precious gift a couple can ever receive—a happy marriage.

Download or read book I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings written by Maya Angelou and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-07-21 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a book as joyous and painful, as mysterious and memorable, as childhood itself. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings captures the longing of lonely children, the brute insult of bigotry, and the wonder of words that can make the world right. Maya Angelou’s debut memoir is a modern American classic beloved worldwide. Sent by their mother to live with their devout, self-sufficient grandmother in a small Southern town, Maya and her brother, Bailey, endure the ache of abandonment and the prejudice of the local “powhitetrash.” At eight years old and back at her mother’s side in St. Louis, Maya is attacked by a man many times her age—and has to live with the consequences for a lifetime. Years later, in San Francisco, Maya learns that love for herself, the kindness of others, her own strong spirit, and the ideas of great authors (“I met and fell in love with William Shakespeare”) will allow her to be free instead of imprisoned. Poetic and powerful, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings will touch hearts and change minds for as long as people read. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings liberates the reader into life simply because Maya Angelou confronts her own life with such a moving wonder, such a luminous dignity.”—James Baldwin From the Paperback edition.
