Book Synopsis Penelope's Purple Passions by : Penelope Chaisson
Download or read book Penelope's Purple Passions written by Penelope Chaisson and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-03 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever fallen madly in love with someone who toyed with your emotions, shattered your heart, and left you to pick up the pieces? Whether you're a novice, an intermediate, or seasoned individual on the relationship scene, the common thread is relationships can bring out the best and worst in human beings. This truth is at the essence of Penelope's Purple Passions. The book metaphorically borrows the emergence process of a butterfly to take readers on a journey of how innocent love starts out pure, gets exposed to pain, and uses the experiences to grow in the knowledge of self and love. Author Penelope Chaisson uses lessons from her personal roller coaster experiences and three decades of poetry writing to show different ways of turning a seemingly negative situation into a positive one. If you're at the intersection of love and hurt and need directions to the path of transformation, this is the book for you. Penelope passionately paints pictures with words to convey that love is a beautiful struggle.
Book Synopsis The Purple Swamp Hen and Other Stories by : Penelope Lively
Download or read book The Purple Swamp Hen and Other Stories written by Penelope Lively and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A glimmering collection of new short fiction from the Booker Prize winner. “Lively writes with an astringent blend of sympathy and detachment, emotional wisdom and satiric wit.” —Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times In such acclaimed novels as The Photograph, Family Album, and How It All Began, Penelope Lively has captivated readers with her singular blend of wisdom, elegance, and humor. Now, in her first story collection in decades, Lively takes up themes of history, family, and relationships across varied and vividly rendered settings. In the title story, a Mediterranean purple swamp hen chronicles the secrets and scandals of Quintus Pompeius’s villa, culminating with his narrow escape from the lava and ash of Vesuvius. “Abroad” captures the low point of an artist couple’s tumultuous European road trip, trapped in a remote Spanish farmhouse and forced to paint a family mural and pitch in with chores to pay for repairs to their broken-down car. Other stories reveal friends and lovers in fateful moments of indiscretion, discovery, and even retribution—as in “The Third Wife,” when a woman learns her husband is a serial con artist and turns a house-hunting trip into an elaborately staged revenge trap. Each of these delightful stories is elevated by Lively’s signature graceful prose and eye for the subtle yet powerfully evocative detail. Wry, charming, and keenly insightful, The Purple Swamp Hen and Other Stories is a masterful achievement from one of our most beloved writers.

Book Synopsis Practicing Catholic by : Penelope J. Ryan
Download or read book Practicing Catholic written by Penelope J. Ryan and published by Edicoes Loyola. This book was released on 1998 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Catholics today feel that the Church and its leaders are out of touch with the real world. Issues such as annulment, birth control, ordination for women, celibacy for priests, and homosexuality have divided and marginalized many of the faithful. With subsequent numbers of lapsed Catholics on the rise and the American clergy aging with fewer priests to take their place. Catholic scholar and teacher Penny Ryan is justly concerned with the future of Catholicism. Citing many historical precedents that have shaped the Church's teachings over the centuries, Ryan calls for a reexamination of what it means to be Catholic in the modern world. She brings attention to the plight of devoted Catholic women who feel called to the priesthood but are denied access, to couples compelled to turn to more reliable birth control methods than those allowed by the Church, and to gay Catholics struggling to reconcile their personal and spiritual lives with current official Church teachings.
