Download or read book The ZOO WHERE YOU RE FED TO GOD written by Michael Ventura and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2014-12-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed screenwriter of Echo Park comes a riveting novel of one man’s descent into madness as he comes down from a painful divorce and finds himself in the enchanted world of a zoo. In this haunting tale of love and reconciliation, successful surgeon James Abbey is so tightly wound that he could have a nervous breakdown in the middle of a crowd, but no one would notice. One day when James begins to hear voices in his head while at the zoo, he begins to fall into madness as his world unravels, stranding him in a realm of eerie luminosity. Though he recognizes he’s gone mad, James finds something irresistible about the new state of mind he’s found at the zoo, keeping him coming back. Before long, a tiger signals him, a giraffe walks into a new dimension, chimpanzees demonstrate love, and a rare antelope shows how delicacy and dignity can survive in a harsh world. The Zoo Where You’re Fed to God provides an unforgettable look at the human truth that lies behind the mask of madness.

They were beautifully portrayed in a myriad of animal forms. Today, surviving images and hieroglyphs, thousands of years old, tell stories of kings and queens as the gods' incarnation in the real world, of pyramids and obelisks, of life and death in the mystical valley of the Nile. Read on and meet the animal deities painted on temples and tombs, carved in stone and even represented as animal mummies. Explore Ancient Egypt, which became one of the world's greatest empires. Stand in awe at the brilliant art and mystery of a unique written language, beautifully represented and explained by the author's drawings. Start learning its basic structure and create your very own hieroglyphs. Discover where you can visit these icons at historic sites and in museums around the world.

Book The Mythical Zoo

    Book Details:
  • Author : Boria Sax
  • Publisher : Abrams
  • Release : 2013-11-29
  • ISBN : 146831646X
  • Pages : 399 pages

Download or read book The Mythical Zoo written by Boria Sax and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2013-11-29 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully illustrated alternate taxonomy of the animal kingdom, based on mythology, literature, art, and other cultural realms: “Charming.” —ForeWord Sacred cows, wily serpents, fearsome lions, elegant swans, busy bees, and sly foxes—all are caricatures of the creatures themselves, yet they reflect not only how different cultures see the natural world around them but also how such cultures make use of their native animals. In this fun and thought-provoking book, historian and animal enthusiast Boria Sax argues for a classification of animals that goes beyond the biological to encompass a more meaningful distinction: tradition. From ants and elephants to tigers and tortoises, The Mythical Zoo weaves together a cross-cultural tapestry encompassing mythology, history, art, science, philosophy, and literature. The result is a beautifully illustrated, masterfully composed love letter to the animal kingdom.

Book The Garden of the Gods

Download or read book The Garden of the Gods written by Gerald Durrell and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the trilogy of memoirs that inspired the television show The Durrells in Corfu: A naturalist’s adventures with animals—and humans—on a Greek island. When his family moved to a Greek island, young naturalist Gerald Durrell was able to indulge his passion for wildlife of all sorts as he discovered the new world around him—and the creatures and people who inhabited it. Indeed, Durrell’s years growing up on Corfu would inspire the rest of his life. In addition to his tales of wild animals, Durrell recounts stories about his even wilder family—including his widowed mother, Louisa, and elder siblings Lawrence, Leslie, and Margo—with undeniable wit and humor. The final chapter in Durrell’s reflections on his family’s time in Greece before the start of World War II, The Garden of the Gods is a fascinating look at the childhood of a naturalist who was ahead of his time. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Gerald Durrell including rare photos from the author’s estate.

Book God s Creatures   Our Teachers

Download or read book God s Creatures Our Teachers written by David DeRidder and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ask, "Who owns the Emerald Coast Zoo?" and you will be told that Rick and Sara de Ridder own it. Then ask them (or their children), "Who's zoo is it?" and they will all say that it is God's zoo!Rick's testimony is full of personal examples of how God has guided the process leading to owning this zoo. God has provided graciously every step along the way. It has been my privilege to help Rick and Sara with new signs for each animal at the zoo. I added as many Biblical references as I could for most of the animals. Then recently while I was part of a team of volunteers from Denver, I led devotions in front of a different animal each morning. That is when Sara suggested that perhaps we could produce a 30-day devotional together and make it available to guests who visit the zoo. This booklet with Sara's amazing design talent is the result of that dream.These daily devotions are short so that they can be useable even when life gets busy. After a busy day, we might want to take a few moments and reflect on God's Word. Or perhaps in the morning before a busy day might be the perfect time to stop and focus on God's Word. Martin Luther once said, "I have so much to do today, that I cannot possibly get it done without first spending a few hours in prayer." There are no written prayers at the end of each devotional like you might expect in a devotional. Rather, this booklet is designed to take just a few moments of time to read each day and hopefully spark some thinking and prayers from the reader.
