Book excerpt: “Nel mezzo del cammin di nostra vita...In the middle of life’s journey...Well not quite the middle for me. Unlike Dante, I was only twenty-five when I was taken on my journey through the netherworld. Taken by whom? I have to name God as the ultimate trip planner, but He assigned a distinguished guide the task of accompanying me on the many legs of the journey. Dante had a poet guide him through Hell, the poet Virgil, but I was given a different guide, a philosopher whom you will meet. Perhaps Virgil was not up to a second trip. Once is enough!” So opens Kevin’s Inferno. Spend thirty-four calendar days with Kevin O’Rourke, days and evenings in Brooklyn, nights in Hell, following in the footsteps of the immortal Dante Alighieri. You will never forget the journey.

Book excerpt: “Rebecca, Ruth, Deborah, and me, Rachel: the Joyce girls. No, we are not Jewish, but rather Irish. Our Mom, yes, Sarah—what else?—was the oldest offspring of a stern fundamentalist Presbyterian preacher, our grandfather, Isaiah Cummings.” So opens this wonderful family saga. Narrated by the youngest, Rachel, the writer, this is the story of the four daughters of Irish Catholic Judge Joyce, a very influential man in Brooklyn, set in the middle of the twentieth century. What a problem their father’s Catholicism created in the Cummings household. Rebecca, the corporate attorney, Ruth, the teacher and homemaker, Deborah, the singer, and Rachel, the author. All successful, all beautiful, but all so different. Grow with them, laugh with them, cry with them, love with them as they mature from little girls, to young ladies, to mature women. Experience their joys, their pains, their lives and relationships with all the highs and lows. You will love returning to an idyllic time, a time gone by, but very much alive in our memories.

Book excerpt: Herman Melville’s version of Captain Ahab’s great chase after Moby Dick is considered the “great American novel.” However very few living Americans have read it. It is considered too difficult or too tedious to get through. Herein is Moby Dick’s version of that chase. Besides giving readers a look at the adventure from a different perspective, Moby Dick has attempted to tell the story in a manner that is more enjoyable for the modern reader. Besides meeting all of Herman Melville’s wonderful characters, the driven Captain Ahab, the too-loyal First Mate Starbuck, the conniving Second Mate Stubb, the nasty Third Mate Flask, the colorful harpooneers, Queequeg, Tashtego, and Daggoo, and, of course, Ishmael, the narrator and sole human survivor of the story as told by Melville, you will meet Moby Dick’s parents, his BirthPodMates, and his love, the beautiful MeiWaang. You will discover that sperm whales have an involved and fascinating culture and history. Moby Dick’s life began in the South Pacific Ocean in the year 1800. He meets Captain Ahab for the first time in 1847 on The Line (the Equator), where he severs one of the captain’s legs. The delirious Ahab returns to Nantucket where he bides his time until he can obtain another command. He gets that command, of the Pequod, and with one ivory leg, sets out to seek revenge for the loss of his leg. This is the story of Moby Dick’s birth, calf-hood, young adulthood, and maturity, culminating in the Final Conflict with Captain Ahab in 1850.

The realities Dr. Turner lives in are inhabited by a group of women whose various histories are interwoven. These are Nancy Swann, the most beautiful woman Sam has ever seen; Becky Alsace and Sarah Burke, fellow students with Sam at Columbia University, linked with him for life; Caroline Williams, director at the New York Museum of Modern Art; a Catholic nun in Tanzania; the Vietnamese trio, Pham Thi Hua, Mai Thi Lan, and Nguyen Thi Tran, all of whom are involved with Sam in the final days of the Vietnam War and alternately in Manhattan; and Pam Windham, botanist and widow of a panda expert. You will wonder, along with Sam, what is and what isnt real. You, along with Sam, will have to come to your own conclusions. And you will enjoy, along with Sam, the entire adventure. Start reading and meet Nancy Swann.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based loosely on the life of a real person, this story is about a girl who grew up with three strikes against her. She was unwanted, overweight, and plain. The only person who really cared about her was her grandmother, who died when she was a teenager. Like the saying goes, she sought love in all the wrong places. The one constant in her life was her quest for a god, who may or may not be real. And if he was real, did he care about her? Miss Candy Nash takes our heroine from a fourth-grade girl struggling to keep her name to a young woman shaking behind a locked bathroom door while her would-be attacker threatens to drag her by her hair to his bed. Does God care? Will he deliver her from the nightmare she finds herself in?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For five decades, no American filmmaker has been as prolific—or as paradoxical—as Woody Allen. From Play It Again, Sam (1972) to Midnight in Paris (2011) and Blue Jasmine (2013), Allen has produced an average of one film a year; yet in many of these movies Allen reveals a progressively skeptical attitude toward both the value of art and the cultural contributions of artists. In this second edition Peter J. Bailey extends his classic study to consider Allen's work during the twenty-first century. He illuminates how the director's decision to leave New York to shoot in European cities such as London, Paris, Rome, and Barcelona has affected his craft. He also explores Allen's shift toward younger actors and interprets the evolving critical reaction to his films—authoritatively demonstrating why the director's lifelong project of moviemaking remains endlessly deserving of careful attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas F. Torrance's theology included a thoroughgoing, albeit implicit, ethic of reconciliation. It focused on the personalizing and humanizing mediation of Christ in all realms of life--including not only a supposed private dimension of human life but also the social, historical, and political structures of human society and even of the cosmos itself. This book builds upon that vision of a Christian ethic radically rooted in God's grace, which encompasses, sustains, and transforms the entire human and created order. A trinitarian-incarnational social ethic does not begin with our human causes, projects, and agendas, however noble they might be, but with witness to the reconciling person and work of Jesus Christ for us.

Near the end of his schooling, Mickey stumbles on an intriguing notion to celebrate those academic years —to try to gain an entry in the Guinness World Book of Records. He hatches the idea to break a world record after watching two friends throw and catch grapes at lunch. After embarking on his quest, Mickey soon discovers he has an amazing mix of friends, helpers and adversaries, most of them tangled up in the often-vicious environment of small-town rumor, romance, and politics. Despite setback after setback, he pursues the record—but will there be one final stumbling block? Mike Ryan is the author of the EPPIE AWARD winning novel BEGIN WITH ME.
