Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The remarkable true story of a man who lived alone in the woods of Maine for 27 years, making this dream a reality—not out of anger at the world, but simply because he preferred to live on his own. “A meditation on solitude, wildness and survival.” —The Wall Street Journal In 1986, a shy and intelligent twenty-year-old named Christopher Knight left his home in Massachusetts, drove to Maine, and disappeared into the forest. He would not have a conversation with another human being until nearly three decades later, when he was arrested for stealing food. Living in a tent even through brutal winters, he had survived by his wits and courage, developing ingenious ways to store edibles and water, and to avoid freezing to death. He broke into nearby cottages for food, clothing, reading material, and other provisions, taking only what he needed but terrifying a community never able to solve the mysterious burglaries. Based on extensive interviews with Knight himself, this is a vividly detailed account of his secluded life—why did he leave? what did he learn?—as well as the challenges he has faced since returning to the world. It is a gripping story of survival that asks fundamental questions about solitude, community, and what makes a good life, and a deeply moving portrait of a man who was determined to live his own way, and succeeded.

On a downward spiral after a horrifying loss, wealthy New York photographer James Worthington Crane flees to the rural Oregon Coast in search of a puzzling inheritance. But when he pulls into the decaying seaside town of Brooks, everyone seems to mistake him for a bad boy named Beau. Now James must push through his grief to unravel a tangled web of family secrets...with help from a soft-spoken local contractor by the name of Hunter. Hunter Quaid’s been on his own since the age of fifteen. It’s taken years of hard work and healing to build the simple life he has now, fixing up seaside houses while living alone by the river. Then James blows in like a winter storm, disturbing the peace and stirring up dreams Hunter thought he’d given up. As their lives and histories intertwine in unexpected ways, they find out what it means to know where you belong. From the author of Merrick and Hidden Talents comes an eerie, sensual romance inspired by the rugged beauty and offbeat history of Pacific Northwest timber country. In Strange Woods moves through ancient old-growth forests, abandoned logging roads, ramshackle seaside towns, decaying homesteads, coastal highways, and the stories hidden in the trees. This book contains references to grief, mental illness, alcohol abuse, suicidal ideation, suicide and murder. A detailed list of content warnings can be found on the author's website. Reviews for In Strange Woods "I was dragged into the forest and lost among the trees until the very last word ... a mystery and a thriller and a romance all woven together in a stunningly well written story." -Wine Drunk Reviews "Enthusiastically recommended." -Boy Meets Boy Reviews "A really well-written hurt/comfort mystery story that provides a well-deserved happy ending." -Love Bytes "Refreshingly different, with characters who are real, but at the same time straight from our fantasies. Most of all for me, it is fantastic how it utterly transforms soul-sucking devastation to a new beginning, full of love, promise and joy." -Kimmers Erotic Book Banter "The book feels both special and unusual and the characters are real and raw and flawed--and wonderfully relatable. The writing borrows from the Gothic tradition; the descriptions of coastal Oregon are dark and eerie and there is a fabulous sense of claustrophobia despite the immense open spaces." -Wicked Reads "In Strange Woods has exactly what I love in a book -- a bit of everything. Offering suspense, surprising reveals, a quiet romance with undeniable chemistry, great characters, poignant moments, and some heartbreak, this story completely ensnared me." -Bayou Book Junkie "Both James and Hunter's characters were so easy to become attached to with every page read ... and don't even get me started on their incredible chemistry physically. It will have you rooting for them to stay together permanently just like I was." -Making it Happen "This intriguing adult gothic gay story has interesting twists that keep one turning the pages, and beautiful imagery that immerses one in the unique area of the Northwest ... an eerie and entertaining read." -The Reading Addict

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A father and daughter living in the remote Appalachian mountains must reckon with the ghosts of their past in Kimi Cunningham Grant's These Silent Woods, a mesmerizing novel of suspense. No electricity, no family, no connection to the outside world. For eight years, Cooper and his young daughter, Finch, have lived in isolation in a remote cabin in the northern Appalachian woods. And that's exactly the way Cooper wants it, because he's got a lot to hide. Finch has been raised on the books filling the cabin’s shelves and the beautiful but brutal code of life in the wilderness. But she’s starting to push back against the sheltered life Cooper has created for her—and he’s still haunted by the painful truth of what it took to get them there. The only people who know they exist are a mysterious local hermit named Scotland, and Cooper's old friend, Jake, who visits each winter to bring them food and supplies. But this year, Jake doesn't show up, setting off an irreversible chain of events that reveals just how precarious their situation really is. Suddenly, the boundaries of their safe haven have blurred—and when a stranger wanders into their woods, Finch’s growing obsession with her could put them all in danger. After a shocking disappearance threatens to upend the only life Finch has ever known, Cooper is forced to decide whether to keep hiding—or finally face the sins of his past. Vividly atmospheric and masterfully tense, These Silent Woods is a poignant story of survival, sacrifice, and how far a father will go when faced with losing it all.

Book Synopsis The Whole Mystery of Christ by : Jordan Daniel Wood
Download or read book The Whole Mystery of Christ written by Jordan Daniel Wood and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2022-10-15 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thoroughgoing examination of Maximus Confessor’s singular theological vision through the prism of Christ’s cosmic and historical Incarnation. Jordan Daniel Wood changes the trajectory of patristic scholarship with this comprehensive historical and systematic study of one of the most creative and profound thinkers of the patristic era: Maximus Confessor (560–662 CE). Wood's panoramic vantage on Maximus’s thought emulates the theological depth of Hans Urs von Balthasar’s Cosmic Liturgy while also serving as a corrective to that classic text. Maximus's theological vision may be summed up in his enigmatic assertion that “the Word of God, very God, wills always and in all things to actualize the mystery of his Incarnation.” The Whole Mystery of Christ sets out to explicate this claim. Attentive to the various contexts in which Maximus thought and wrote—including the wisdom of earlier church fathers, conciliar developments in Christological and Trinitarian doctrine, monastic and ascetic ways of life, and prominent contemporary philosophical traditions—the book explores the relations between God’s act of creation and the Word’s historical Incarnation, between the analogy of being and Christology, and between history and the Fall, in addition to treating such topics as grace, deification, theological predication, and the ontology of nature versus personhood. Perhaps uniquely among Christian thinkers, Wood argues, Maximus envisions creatio ex nihilo as creatio ex Deo in the event of the Word’s kenosis: the mystery of Christ is the revealed identity of the Word’s historical and cosmic Incarnation. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of patristics, historical theology, systematic theology, and Byzantine studies.
