Book Synopsis An American Requiem by : James Carroll
Download or read book An American Requiem written by James Carroll and published by HMH. This book was released on 1997-04-01 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award winner: This story of a family torn apart by the Vietnam era is “a magnificent portrayal of two noble men who broke each other’s hearts” (Booklist). James Carroll grew up in a Catholic family that seemed blessed. His father, who had once dreamed of becoming a priest, instead began a career in J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI, rising through the ranks and eventually becoming one of the most powerful men in the Pentagon, the founder of the Defense Intelligence Agency. Young Jim lived a privileged life, dating the daughter of a vice president and meeting the pope—all in the shadow of nuclear war, waiting for the red telephone to ring in his parents’ house. James fulfilled the goal his father had abandoned, becoming a priest himself. His feelings toward his father leaned toward worship as well—until the tumult of the 1960s came between them. Their disagreements, over Martin Luther King, Jr. and the civil rights movement; turmoil in the Church; and finally, Vietnam—where the elder Carroll chose targets for US bombs—began to outweigh the bond between them. While one of James’s brothers fled to Canada, another was in law enforcement ferreting out draft dodgers. James, meanwhile, served as a chaplain at Boston University, protesting the war in the streets but ducking news cameras to avoid discovery. Their relationship would never be the same again. Only after Carroll left the priesthood to become a writer, and a husband with children of his own, did he begin to understand fully the struggles his father had faced. In An American Requiem, the New York Times bestselling author of Constantine’s Sword and Christ Actually offers a benediction, in “a moving memoir of the effect of the Vietnam War on his family that is at once personal and the story of a generation . . . at once heartbreaking and heroic, this is autobiography at its best” (Publishers Weekly).

Download or read book A Requiem to the Vitality of Life written by Echo Klaproth and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During two of the most difficult seasons of her life, Echo's family was blessed by the care provided from hospice teams. As a result of those seasons, that care, hospice became her calling, and she joined a nonprofit organization, first as a volunteer and then as their chaplain. It is through her observations over several years and the collective presence and ways so many chose to live out their life or to caregive and support another human being as he or she finished their time here on earth that she came to a better understanding of the vitality of life. She said, "It's them and their stories that I shall always be grateful for and remember. This then is a collection of reminiscences about the process of not only living out but finishing life that's been humbly recorded in prose and poetry in their honor." Heaven awaits after the winding and dangerous road of untold suffering, unanswered questions, unmet dreams, and unfulfilled hopes. "Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine. Grant them eternal rest, O Lord."

For the first time in his existence, Lucifer falls in love, and this event threatens to transform his identity and perhaps even his destiny. Gianna O'Keefe is the woman who drags him out of his ancient despair and points him toward possible salvation. Yet Lucifer's path from evil is neither straight nor smooth. Pursuing love means betraying his fellow fallen angels, the loyal friends who once followed him to damnation. Divine and infernal forces seem to conspire against his and Gianna's union. Lucifer's empire crumbles around him as he dares to defy the natural order and question his fate.

Brought up from Neverness by the Alaloi people, Neanderthal cave-dwellers, Danlo alone of his tribe has survived a plague -- because he is not, as he thought, a misshaped Neanderthal, but human with immunity engineered into his genes. He learns that the disease was created by the sinister Architects of the Universal Cybernetic Church. The Architects possess a cure which can save other Alaloi tribes. But the Architects have migrated to the region of space known as the Vild, and there they are killing stars.All of civilization has converged on Neverness through the manifold of space travel.

Download or read book Christ Actually written by James Carroll and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestselling and widely admired Catholic writer explores how we can retrieve transcendent faith in modern times Critically acclaimed and bestselling author James Carroll has explored every aspect of Christianity, faith, and Jesus Christ except this central one: What can we believe about—and how can we believe in—Jesus in the twenty-first century in light of the Holocaust and other atrocities of the twentieth century and the drift from religion that followed? What Carroll has discovered through decades of writing and lecturing is that he is far from alone in clinging to a received memory of Jesus that separates him from his crucial identity as a Jew, and therefore as a human. Yet if Jesus was not taken as divine, he would be of no interest to us. What can that mean now? Paradoxically, the key is his permanent Jewishness. No Christian himself, Jesus actually transcends Christianity. Drawing on both a wide range of scholarship as well as his own acute searching as a believer, Carroll takes a fresh look at the most familiar narratives of all—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Far from another book about the “historical Jesus,” he takes the challenges of science and contemporary philosophy seriously. He retrieves the power of Jesus’ profound ordinariness, as an answer to his own last question—what is the future of Jesus Christ?—as the key to a renewal of faith.
Download or read book Requiem for a Soul written by Clint Gaige and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 1999-12-19 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Requiem for a Soul is the story of redemption for an artist. Stephen Vale has been highly lauded as the artist of his generation, but he has never felt comfortable being himself. Driving home on his thirty-fifth birthday to discover himself, what he finds are more questions. Written from the perspective of Stephen Vale's fictional biographer and told through the voices of Vale and those who knew him, this is the eternal story of the search for peace in the eye of an internal war. Advance praise for Requiem for a Soul: "I first met Clint while he was a struggling poet, but he has always had the gift of observation. He is the quintessential storyteller. He packs a lot of meaning into each sentence and at times, each word. I'm sure this will become an instant classic. And, I'm not just saying that to get an autographed copy."—Ron Saikowski, Washington Times "Gaige is a humanist, he is extremely powerful in subtlety of observation and depth of meaning. Requiem for a Soul is a search for love, a search for why we are abandoned by those we love, a search for answers to why we abandon those we love, in short, a search for meaning in life."—Sean Meiers, Publisher/Editor Random Reasonings, Literary On-Line "Gaige draws back the veil of an artist's life and gives us a good look at ourselves. The story and his characters have a clear objective; they look us straight in the eyes and realize, that you're looking at yourself!"—Sara Lindley, Editor, Creative Writer's Forum
