Download or read book The Walnut Door written by John Hersey and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2019-09-04 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing at the height of his powers, John Hersey has created a taut, dazzling novel of suspense and revelation—in which we watch, mesmerized, the fateful convergence of two lives. A young woman, having fled from her suddenly unbearable “college kid” self—and from the place, even the lover, that were part of it—comes alone to a strange city, anxiously waiting for something new and important to begin…. A man—breezy, ponytailed, beautiful—stranded by the passing of the sixties whose excitements had nurtured and consumed him, now lavishes his whole self on loving craftsmanship, on the construction of simple, perfect wooden doors, on the mystery of locks, and on the artful offering of security (his locks and doors) to women who are alone…. The meeting of these two, and their love affair—its choreography masterminded by one, unsuspected by the other—are hypnotically told in a novel that illumines the fearful and the fear-makers in our decade.

Book Synopsis At Heaven's Door by : William J. Peters
Download or read book At Heaven's Door written by William J. Peters and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-01-03 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “brilliant and fascinating” (Eben Alexander, MD, author of Proof of Heaven) exploration—rich with powerful personal stories and convincing research—of the many ways the living can and do accompany the dying on their journey into the afterlife. In 2000, end-of-life therapist William Peters was volunteering at the Zen Hospice Project in San Francisco when he had an extraordinary experience as he was reading aloud to a patient: he suddenly felt himself floating midair, completely out of his body. The patient, who was also aloft, looked at him and smiled. The next moment, Peters felt himself return to his body…but his patient never regained consciousness and died. Perplexed and stunned by what had happened, Peters began searching for other people who’d shared similar experiences. He would spend the next twenty years gathering and meticulously categorizing their stories to identify key patterns and features of what is now known as the “shared crossing” experience. The similarities, which cut across continents and cultures and include awe-inspiring visual and sensory effects, and powerful emotional aftershocks. The book is filled with “moving and tender” (Jack Kornfield, PhD, author of A Path with Heart) tales of spouses seeing their loved ones reach the other side after decades together and bereaved parents who share their children’s entry into the afterlife. Applying rigorous research, Peters digs into the effects of these shared crossing experiences impart—liberation at the sight of a loved one finding joy, a sense of reconciliation if the relationship was fraught—and explores questions like: What can explain these shared death experiences? How can we increase our likelihood of having one? What do these experiences tell us about what lies beyond? And, most importantly, how can they help take away the string of death and better prepare us for our own final moments? How can we have both a better life and a better death?
Book Synopsis Knocking the Door of Happiness by : Anuradha H.N
Download or read book Knocking the Door of Happiness written by Anuradha H.N and published by Walnut Publication. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a long time, we have been observing changes in our lifestyles, working patterns, our preferences in movies & sports, but one thing has been constant - ‘the struggle to stay happy’. The main reason for writing this book is to bring happiness in the life of an individual. A lot has been said and written about physical and mental health but how this co-relates to your inner peace and happiness is something which has a wider scope for research and discussions. We have tried to analyse the approach of being happy from a different perspective which includes Spiritual, Psychological and other aspects of one’s life. We strongly believe that one’s source of happiness differs from the other individual but in the end, everyone wants to have a peaceful sleep & a happy morning. As quoted by ‘Eleanor Roosevelt- “Happiness is not a goal, it is a by-product”. We have tried to analyse and interpret the outcomes of our day to day activities and all the little achievements (which we usually tend to ignore) plays an important part to lead a happy life. This book does not talk about any thumb rule as the title itself - ‘Knocking the door of Happiness’ is very subjective, we have tried to showcase few aspects which can co-relate with individuals of all the age groups. They can surely take few best practices to implement in their daily lives which will help them to appreciate all the little things and to acknowledge the happiness lies within.

Book excerpt: Sussel is a well to do young woman in Chernowitz, known as little Vienna. She studies languages and pharmacy in several universities in Europe and is looking forward to a full and privileged life. But World War II completely overturns everyone's lives, as first the Russians and then the Germans overtake Chernowitz, rounding up all Jews for work camps and even execution. Sussel is forced to use her pharmaceutical skills, and even sex, to save her own life and those of her father and her childhood suitor, Max. The Walnut Tree sets the devastating power of historical events against the personal forces of reconciliation and enduring love. This powerful, disturbing and finally transcendent story is written with captivating detail and sensuous, often poetic, writing. The novel deals with vital social, political, and ethical issues, and finally, and most importantly, with love.

Book excerpt: Being a pagan in a small town west of the Mississippi is not easy. Calvin Pfeiffer, a German immigrant working for the University of Iowa, has chosen the rural life in Walnut Grove as a place to settle down and start a family. Except for the local group of fundamentalist Christians-Lyle Anderson in particular-Calvin has decided that Walnut Grove really is not a bad place to live. When Megan rides her bike up his road and stops to chat, Calvin realizes she is the woman of his dreams. As Calvin and Megan fall in love, a group of local fundamentalists headed by Lyle-an influential conservative who has a reputation for ruining the lives of those who dare to cross him-gathers steam about the issue of the local school curriculum, most notably against the idea that glaciers formed the Iowa landscape. It is not long before the fundamentalists accuse Calvin of not living up to community standards, and they argue that the school curriculum promotes promiscuity and homosexuality. While Calvin forges alliances to defeat their antiquated ideas, business school graduates-who happen to be gay-move to town and assist the town in recovering from economic hardship. An all-out war begins and culminates in a virulent school board meeting that will determine the outcome for this quaint town embroiled in controversy.
