Book excerpt: Richly imagined, gothically spooky, and replete with the ingenious storytelling ability of a born novelist, The Good Thief introduces one of the most appealing young heroes in contemporary fiction and ratifies Hannah Tinti as one of our most exciting new talents. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review • The Washington Post • San Francisco Chronicle • Kirkus Reviews Winner of the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize and an American Library Association Alex Award Twelve year-old Ren is missing his left hand. How it was lost is a mystery that Ren has been trying to solve for his entire life, as well as who his parents are, and why he was abandoned as an infant at Saint Anthony’s Orphanage for boys. He longs for a family to call his own and is terrified of the day he will be sent alone into the world. But then a young man named Benjamin Nab appears, claiming to be Ren’s long-lost brother, and his convincing tale of how Ren lost his hand and his parents persuades the monks at the orphanage to release the boy and to give Ren some hope. But is Benjamin really who he says he is? Journeying through a New England of whaling towns and meadowed farmlands, Ren is introduced to a vibrant world of hardscrabble adventure filled with outrageous scam artists, grave robbers, and petty thieves. If he stays, Ren becomes one of them. If he goes, he’s lost once again. As Ren begins to find clues to his hidden parentage he comes to suspect that Benjamin not only holds the key to his future, but to his past as well. Praise for The Good Thief "Every once in a while—if you are very lucky—you come upon a novel so marvelous and enchanting and rare that you wish everyone in the world would read it, as well. The Good Thief is just such a book—a beautifully composed work of literary magic."—Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love "Darkly transporting . . . [In] The Good Thief, the reader can find plain-spoken fiction full of traditional virtues: strong plotting, pure lucidity, visceral momentum and a total absence of writerly mannerisms. In Ms. Tinti’s case that means an American Dickensian tale with touches of Harry Potterish whimsy, along with a macabre streak of spooky New England history."—New York Times

Book Synopsis Exposing the Identity Thief by : P. C. Leveare
Download or read book Exposing the Identity Thief written by P. C. Leveare and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an intriguing discovery of the very essence of our being as a child of God. Look! We all want to be like Jesus, but the reality is we already are like Him, we're just not fully convinced. The Bible tells us, "...as He is so are we..." (1John 4:17), and that it's no longer we who live, but Christ who lives within us (see Galatians 2:20). Our outward transformation depends on our inward realization, not on our trying. Our identity in Christ is the cornerstone of everything in life. The greatest measure of contentment, peace and joy is realized as I become more and more convinced of my true identity. That's what this book is about...Discovering who I really am by knowing Him...FINDING MYSELF IN HIM. As a teenager, P.C. thought that playing rock 'n roll and partying was all there was to living a fulfilled life. His party, however, was unexpectedly interrupted by an encounter with Jesus Christ. This radically altered his whole perception of life and its purpose. From this new-found relationship with Jesus Christ he began to discover that you don't have to be someone special to be someone special. P.C. and his wife reside in Georgia, where he leads worship at his local church and teaches weekly from the Bible.

Download or read book Thief written by Rupert Croft-Cooke and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-09-28 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'If they've got any sense they'll leave the boy with Alicia Robbins.'But they didn't.They (the Juvenile Court, that is) took Gerry Lovell away from the old spinster who had taken him in ad cared for him so passionately and they had packed him off to an Approved School. Gerry had always been 'the one who was different': even as a boy he found crime only an excitement, not a moral wrong.Perhaps he could have been rescued from this but he wasn't.From the moment he entered the Approved School his way forward was mapped out: robbery and deception, crime taken like a drug, until at last, as the henchman of the underworld mogul Graham Bond, he was prepared to risk everything - the happiness of a young wife and child, a promising career, the loyalty of the old woman who had stood by him through everything - to throw them all as stake just 'for kicks'. Through a series of incidents more tense than any ordinary thriller Thief moves rapidly towards a climax of violent excitement. There is a brilliant picture of how the underworld works and there is, too, a warmth and human understanding that will make this novel remembered long after it is laid down. Rupert Croft-Cooke, of whom Sir Compton Mackenzie has said 'no contemporary novelist has offered us so many readable books' here gives yet another proof of his remarkable versatility.

Book Synopsis Moshkeleh the Thief by : Sholom Aleichem
Download or read book Moshkeleh the Thief written by Sholom Aleichem and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first English translation of Sholom Aleichem’s rediscovered novel, Moshkeleh the Thief, has a riveting plot, an unusual love story, and a keenly observed portrayal of an underclass Jew replete with characters never before been seen in Yiddish literature. The eponymous hero, Moshkeleh, is a robust chap and horse thief. When Tsireleh, daughter of a tavern keeper, flees to a monastery with the man she loves—a non-Jew she met at the tavern—the humiliated tavern keeper’s family turns to Moshkeleh for help, not knowing he too is in love with her. For some unknown reason, this innovative novel does not appear in the standard twenty-eight-volume edition of Sholom Aleichem’s collected works, published after his death. Strikingly, Moshkeleh the Thief shows Jews interacting with non-Jews in the Russian Pale of Settlement—a groundbreaking theme in modern Yiddish literature. This novel is also important for Sholom Aleichem’s approach to his material. Yiddish literature had long maintained a tradition of edelkeyt, refinement. Authors eschewed violence, the darker side of life, and people on the fringe of respectability. Moshkeleh thus enters a Jewish arena not hitherto explored in a novel.

Download or read book The Child Thief written by Brom and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-08-25 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed artist Brom brilliantly displays his multiple extraordinary talents in The Child Thief—a spellbinding re-imagining of the beloved Peter Pan story that carries readers through the perilous mist separating our world from the realm of Faerie. As Gregory Maguire did with his New York Times bestselling Wicked novels, Brom takes a classic children’s tale and turns it inside-out, painting a Neverland that, like Maguire’s Oz, is darker, richer, more complex than innocent world J.M. Barrie originally conceived. An ingeniously executed literary feat, illustrated with Brom’s sumptuous artwork, The Child Thief is contemporary fantasy at its finest—casting Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, even Captain Hook and his crew in a breathtaking new light.

Download or read book Identity Thief written by Robby Dawkins and published by Chosen Books. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exchange Fear and Doubt for a Life of Radical Possibility Since the Garden, our true identities have been hijacked--stolen by Satan. We've fallen prey to the subtle, believable lies of the enemy that we are inadequate, powerless, ineffective. As a result, God's purposes for our lives are short-circuited. Robby Dawkins, a most engaging storyteller, shows how the enemy has shattered our understanding that we are made in the image and likeness of God. When we grasp the truth of who we are in Christ, we can walk with him into the realm of power reserved for each of God's children. We can do the things Jesus commanded us to do--heal the sick, rout demons, deliver the captives. The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Don't let him. Reclaim your true identity and live a life of purpose, passion, and power.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For three hundred years, a stolen relic passes from one fortune-seeker to the next, indelibly altering the lives of those who possess it. In modern-day Tokyo, Robin Swann’s life has sputtered to a stop. She’s stuck in a dead-end job testing antiquities for an auction house, but her true love is poetry, not pottery. Her stalled dissertation sits on her laptop, unopened in months, and she has no one to confide in but her goldfish. On the other side of town, Nori Okuda sells rice bowls and tea cups to Tokyo restaurants, as her family has done for generations. But with her grandmother in the hospital, the family business is foundering. Nori knows if her luck doesn’t change soon, she’ll lose what little she has left. With nothing in common, Nori and Robin suddenly find their futures inextricably linked to an ancient, elusive tea bowl. Glimpses of the past set the stage as they hunt for the lost masterpiece, uncovering long-buried secrets in their wake. As they get closer to the truth—and the tea bowl—the women must choose between seizing their dreams or righting the terrible wrong that has poisoned its legacy for centuries.
