Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Unknowing meditates on John's confrontation with the incandescent Jesus, a figure of our desire for immortality. Guiding us through the Gospel's coming to grips with Jesus, the poet David Sten Herrstrom prefers sparking the imagination to arguing a thesis, as he explores John's own obsessions, such as image (light), symbol (water), sign (water to wine), shapeliness (symmetry), loves (Peter, Mary's), and above all, words (the Word, the body of Jesus). The result is a heady, literary engagement not afraid of wit and paradox. For anyone who loves literature or whose business is interpretation--ministers and teachers--this book blossoms with fresh revelations about the many voices of Jesus living in the House of the Interpreter and interacting with another interpreter (Nicodemus), as well as about John the interpreter who continually pauses to explain Jesus' motives, metaphors, and the meaning of his death. This meditation on John's Gospel takes the goat's leaping approach to the craggy language of John and Jesus rather than the methodical rock climber's. And along the way, to help him find footholds on the how and why of John's strategies, the author calls on other poets, from William Blake to Emily Dickinson and Miguel de Unamuno. The result: a poet's rather than a preacher's, theologian's, or scholar's reading of John's book, one which crosses the borders of disciplines. Throughout The Book of Unknowing, David Herrstrom is unsettled and exhilarated by the peculiar orneriness and fragrance of John's book, by its strange particulars that grab him by the throat and call lives into question. As William Blake has said, "Exuberance is Beauty," and this is an exuberant book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning novel of hopes and dreams, guilt and love—a book that offers a resonant new definition of what it means to be American and "illuminates the lives behind the current debates about Latino immigration" (The New York Times Book Review). When fifteen-year-old Maribel Rivera sustains a terrible injury, the Riveras leave behind a comfortable life in Mexico and risk everything to come to the United States so that Maribel can have the care she needs. Once they arrive, it’s not long before Maribel attracts the attention of Mayor Toro, the son of one of their new neighbors, who sees a kindred spirit in this beautiful, damaged outsider. Their love story sets in motion events that will have profound repercussions for everyone involved. Here Henríquez seamlessly interweaves the story of these star-crossed lovers, and of the Rivera and Toro families, with the testimonials of men and women who have come to the United States from all over Latin America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gruesome murder, a scared witness, a retired police officer brought back to finish an unfinished case and a suspect in custody in less than twelve hours. Bravo! When everyone thinks that the case is closed, little they expect that this is just a beginning. Welcome to the world of Yogi, where the line between good and bad, right and wrong has no meaning. Yogi! He is not a normal person and certainly he is not a Hero by any standards. He is a lone wolf and his methods are crude. He fights the demons with the devil inside him. The best in him comes during the worst situations in life. He is not someone who you wish to be a part of your life. But, if he appears at your doorstep, then know that you are up against something far more dangerous than you can imagine. If you are not the bad guy then don’t worry, you are in safe hands. This book is my dedication to the unsung Heroes, who lurk in shadow, embrace darkness and walk the path of death, so that we can have peaceful nights of sleep.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Miller was one of the most distinctive voices in twentieth-century literature, yet he remains misunderstood. Better known in Europe than in his native America for most of his career, he achieved international success and celebrity during the 1960s when his banned “Paris” books—beginning with Tropic of Cancer—were published here and judged by the Supreme Court not to be obscene. The Unknown Henry Miller recounts Miller’s career from its beginnings in Paris in the 1930s but focuses on his years living in Big Sur, California, from 1944 to 1961, during which he wrote many of his most important books, including The Rosy Crucifixion trilogy, married and divorced twice, raised two children, painted watercolors, and tried to live out a credo of self-realization. Written with the cooperation of the Henry Miller and Anaïs Nin estates, The Unknown Henry Miller draws on material previously unavailable to biographers, including interviews with Lepska Warren, Miller’s third wife. Behind the “bad boy” image, Arthur Hoyle finds a man whose challenge of literary sexual taboos was part of a broader assault on the dehumanization of man and commercialization during the postwar years, and he makes the case for restoring this groundbreaking writer to his rightful place in the American literary canon. Skyhorse Publishing, along with our Arcade, Good Books, Sports Publishing, and Yucca imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs. Our list includes biographies on well-known historical figures like Benjamin Franklin, Nelson Mandela, and Alexander Graham Bell, as well as villains from history, such as Heinrich Himmler, John Wayne Gacy, and O. J. Simpson. We have also published survivor stories of World War II, memoirs about overcoming adversity, first-hand tales of adventure, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

Do you believe He has the power to control what happens on this earth and in your life? Do you understand how He thinks and does things? How familiar are you with His unique attributes? The Unknown God is a call to the church to get to know God better. The author convincingly argues from Scripture that a deep and intimate knowledge of the true God is a catalyst to individual and church-wide spiritual zeal and maturity. This book will be an invaluable hands-on reference for Christians who love God and want to learn more about His amazing greatness. It brings together Scriptures from both the Old and New Testaments to provide an inspiring profile of the true God – His nature, credentials, power, achievements, ways and traits. In a straightforward style the author has taken a complex subject and presented it in bite-sized chapters for easy reading.

Verdenskrig indførte flere krigsførende lande et nyt hidtil ukendt ritual. Kroppen af en anonym soldat, død på slagmarken, blev begravet i "den ukendte soldats grav" for at symbolisere den fælles sorg over slagmarkens voldsomme traumer. Ved at undersøge hvordan forskellige lande ofte med vidt forskellig politisk og kulturel baggrund har anvendt "Den ukendte Soldat" symbolsk, hævder forfatteren, at der er skabt en ny måde at udtrykke fælles national sorg på.

A crime committed on Christmas Eve in a villa located on a side street arouses many questions among the investigators. The surveillance system breaks down on the morning of the murder while the neighbors, busy with the Christmas preparations, are unable to offer any information about possible suspects visiting the victim on that day. The data collected on the crime scene suggest that the murderer knows the victim or, at least, is no stranger to the place. Furthermore, no valuable things are missing nor are there any signs that the criminal has rummaged around the house. Despite the investigations carried out by Commissioner Mugur Preda and Prosecutor Ligia Adam, the murder enquiry reaches a dead-end. The case takes, however, an unexpected turn when the victim’s partner is brutally attacked in her own apartment, leading the investigations to a new direction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to walk and talk with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? This book, "The Unknown Disciple," leads you on a a journey to the manger where Jesus lay as a new born babe, and then follows the life of one of the unknown shepherds as he comes to the know the Savior throughout his life. Taken from the pages of the King James New Testament, this book uses the actual events and words of Jesus Christ to create a historical fiction that places the reader in some of the most memorable events from the lives of those who traveled with Jesus during his ministry. Wound tightly into the stories are principles of faith, hope, love, and service that lift the reader to an understanding of the Lord's gospel from an intimate personal perspective. As one reads the accounts taken from actual events that occurred in the New Testament, one is enveloped in the Spirit of God as one sees and feels as those who walked among him must have felt as they witnessed the healings and the miracles of Jesus. You will feel what it was like to walk upon the water, eat of the bread he offered to the 5,000 and feel the heartache and tragedy of Gethsemane and Golgotha. More than anything, you will feel the infinite love of the Savior for each of his disciples. You will experience the joy of his glorious resurrection and gain a stronger witness that Jesus is the very Christ, the Son of God, and Savior of the world.

Who were they, who are they now, and what will become of them in the future? And how do Gods plans for them relate to his plans for everyone else? You will find all of this and more in the pages of The Unknown God!
