Book In Remembrance of Her

Download or read book In Remembrance of Her written by Denise Harris and published by Peepal Tree Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why does the Judge, powerful, wealthy and Black, bring his world crashing down by murdering his son, Baby-Boy? And why was Baby-boy wearing a dress of feathers, his face painted white? These are the mysteries the Judge's old friend, a private eye, sets out to uncover, though it is not until the very last chapter that the whole story emerges. Until then, the reader is engaged in a journey of twists and turns as complex and surprising as life itself." "Set in Guyana, where colour and class still count for much, it is the Judge's servant, Blanche Steadman, who, though confined to her one-room shack behind the Judge's splendid mansion, is witness to the pain locked deep in the household's secrets. She becomes the warmly sympathetic guide to the novel's unfolding mysteries, along with her friend, the formidable market woman, Irene Gittings, whose role in the novel is one of its surprises." "At the heart of the narrative is the ghostly presence of the Caul Girl who, through the survival of her diaries, becomes the prophetic conscience of both the present and the past."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of life at the margins of history from one of Russia’s most exciting contemporary writers Shortlisted for the 2021 International Booker Prize Winner of the MLA Lois Roth Translation Award With the death of her aunt, the narrator is left to sift through an apartment full of faded photographs, old postcards, letters, diaries, and heaps of souvenirs: a withered repository of a century of life in Russia. Carefully reassembled with calm, steady hands, these shards tell the story of how a seemingly ordinary Jewish family somehow managed to survive the myriad persecutions and repressions of the last century. In dialogue with writers like Roland Barthes, W. G. Sebald, Susan Sontag, and Osip Mandelstam, In Memory of Memory is imbued with rare intellectual curiosity and a wonderfully soft-spoken, poetic voice. Dipping into various forms—essay, fiction, memoir, travelogue, and historical documents—Stepanova assembles a vast panorama of ideas and personalities and offers an entirely new and bold exploration of cultural and personal memory.
