Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It’s not just petrol, it’s everything! He said everything we use is made from oil – plastic, synthetics, thousands of everyday things, even fertilisers that farmers need to grow food. He said there’ll be terrible shortages and all our consumer goods will disappear. We’ll be back to the Stone Age!" It’s the year 2030 and civilisation is faced with a dramatic change that could alter their lifestyles forever. When the oil starts to run out, its not just the power that goes, it’s all the things that make life worth living. All the 'stuff' that people fill their homes with, even the necessities like food and drink, become rationed as the small shops in the High Street start to reopen, one by one. How will Jonjay and his family survive this new world? New kinds of energy – some of which is based on recycled waste – become available as an alternative to the fossil fuel energy, but will life ever be the same again for this loving family? Meanwhile, in Africa, Limpo escapes the forest fires that consume his home and family. Will he be able to make a new life for himself, and for this lost country? The parallel story that mirrors Jonjay and his family represents the struggle to keep their respective families alive and well in such a lost, diminishing world. This striking novella captures a very realistic account of a potential future circumstance and includes a foreword by Paul Allen, Project Director Zero Carbon Britain, Centre for Alternative Technology in Machynlleth. A Different World focuses on our misconception of the way we use our energy resources and would interest adult modern contemporary fiction readers with a secondary appeal to young adults. Using the controversial issue of renewable energy as the central focal point, author Ruth demonstrates the need for an alternative technology that will help people adapt to a new way of life.
Book Synopsis A Different World by : Roger M. Hart
Download or read book A Different World written by Roger M. Hart and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-05-27 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Different World concludes the Little House series with both relief and sorrow. Relief to see a project finished but sorrow to leave all the characters behind, who have become a real part of my life. In this volume Patrick and Olivia take their family of five and leave the little house behind, thinking this time they wont ever be back. But as Robert Burns said in a poem long ago, the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry, you will see how Patrick and Olivias plans go awry just when life is becoming less stressful. After Patrick and Olivia left the little house and rented the Silas Barton farm, the Francis Airhartz farm that lay adjacent to the Harris farm came up for sale. Patrick had secretly wanted to buy this land if it ever came up for sale. Now was his chance to be settled for life but needed to borrow enough money by sale day. When it seemed the opportunity was passing an unexpected source helped him purchase part of the farm. They thought they were settled then, for life, until the unexpected, the unthinkable happened.
Book Synopsis Homesick for Another World by : Ottessa Moshfegh
Download or read book Homesick for Another World written by Ottessa Moshfegh and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Notable Book of 2017 An electrifying first collection from one of the most exciting short story writers of our time "I can’t recall the last time I laughed this hard at a book. Simultaneously, I’m shocked and scandalized. She’s brilliant, this young woman."—David Sedaris Ottessa Moshfegh's debut novel Eileen was one of the literary events of 2015. Garlanded with critical acclaim, it was named a book of the year by The Washington Post and the San Francisco Chronicle, nominated for a National Book Critics Circle Award, short-listed for the Man Booker Prize, and won the PEN/Hemingway Award for debut fiction. But as many critics noted, Moshfegh is particularly held in awe for her short stories. Homesick for Another World is the rare case where an author's short story collection is if anything more anticipated than her novel. And for good reason. There's something eerily unsettling about Ottessa Moshfegh's stories, something almost dangerous, while also being delightful, and even laugh-out-loud funny. Her characters are all unsteady on their feet in one way or another; they all yearn for connection and betterment, though each in very different ways, but they are often tripped up by their own baser impulses and existential insecurities. Homesick for Another World is a master class in the varieties of self-deception across the gamut of individuals representing the human condition. But part of the unique quality of her voice, the echt Moshfeghian experience, is the way the grotesque and the outrageous are infused with tenderness and compassion. Moshfegh is our Flannery O'Connor, and Homesick for Another World is her Everything That Rises Must Converge or A Good Man is Hard to Find. The flesh is weak; the timber is crooked; people are cruel to each other, and stupid, and hurtful. But beauty comes from strange sources. And the dark energy surging through these stories is powerfully invigorating. We're in the hands of an author with a big mind, a big heart, blazing chops, and a political acuity that is needle-sharp. The needle hits the vein before we even feel the prick.

Book Synopsis Faith the Currency of a Different World by : Hayden Patrick
Download or read book Faith the Currency of a Different World written by Hayden Patrick and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith, sure you can define it, but do you really know what it is? Moreover, what has your faith done for you lately? The Bible teaches that, without faith, it is impossible to please God; and rooted in the heart of every Christian is the desire to please God, yet many Christians struggle to put faith to work in their daily lives. The author dissects faith using a secular, legalistic slant and presents a unique perspective on the merits of the Christian version of the doctrine. Using the art of storytelling, some of which are fictional, others true, many of the dimensions of faith are bought to life. Faith is given transactional value and is treated as the cornerstone on which the entire Christian faith is built. Light on theology but heavy on practical, digestible messages, you can't avoid having the "I never thought of it that way" moments. It's funny too, which is not expected in a book that tackles the seriousness of theologically debatable topics. The stories are refreshing and relatable and capture the imagination as you read. The book guides, instructs, and has a conversational dimension that keeps you engaged.

This book was released on 2019-10-11 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book of spiritual poetry consists of my personal life with the enemy; and then God shows up, chasing me for his will and knowing my plan wasn't getting his plan done. The forgiving of my past life in not being a follower of Christ and not a good example to my neighbors and convicted me to challenge myself of being reborn in the mind as my heart followed the Lord into trusting, loving, praying, believing, and praising his name, Jesus, of establishing new foundation in a building that leaks. As I acknowledge him to lead us into this spiritual battle which comes our way, he stands with us against the presence of deceitful around us in finished war of winning and continues strengthening us in a circle of "united he stands" as God with his children for love. I pray within these messages of spiritual poems be lifting to inspire, seek, choose this day, praise his name, glorify and trust in the lord with our souls of all things in preparing us for the kingdom in heaven with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Thank you. God bless!
