Book Description
Dr. Daniel Hoffman is a young man just out of residency, now working in an inner-city hospital in New York City in 1999. As he contends with the usual panel of challenging patients, Daniel struggles to make sense of his life, one that includes the untimely death of his father, haunting nightmares that plague him nightly and pervasive memories of an ill-fated childhood journey to Argentina, the country of his birth. Young Daniel is sent away by his mother to Buenos Aires in 1979 to convalesce with relatives after a complicated surgery. It is a month long trip in which Daniel stays with an odd assortment of characters that make up a part of his extended family. Daniel falls in love with and longs to be a part of this world he was born in. As the story progresses, pulsing between present and past, the line between dream and reality begins to blur. Back in New York City, the young doctor searches for a way to hang on to the one thing that will help him learn to accept the past and move forward to the present. Through his encounters with patients and colleagues Dr. Hoffman attempts to find solace and understanding, as young Daniel’s journey unravels and descends into tragedy. Beguiling Dreams is more than a story of remembrance and loss. It serves as a testimony to one man’s unrelenting search for identity, balanced between two separate worlds.

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
In Ancient Science and Dreams, M. Andrew Holowchak analyzes the ancient notion of science of dreams throughout Greco-Roman antiquity, from the Classical Greece in the fifth century B.C. to the Roman Republic in the fourth century A.D. Holowchak investigates psycho-physiological accounts, interpretation of prophetic dreams, and the use of dreams in secular and non-secular medicine. Culling from some of the fullest and most important accounts of dreams and ordering the presentation in each section chronologically, the author analyzes the extent to which empirical and non-empirical factors guided ancient accounts in Greco-Roman antiquity.

The Blue Box
Author: M.M. Wagner
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525589091
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
Life is fragile, and when it changes without warning, people are changed as well, sometimes irreparably. When circumstances outside our control reshape our lives, who we are and who we have the capacity to become are put to the test. With clarity and knowledge, a deeper understanding can be born. This is the story of two women, living in times and circumstances that couldn’t be more dissimilar. How does a woman struggling to stay alive in Nazi-occupied Poland, have anything in common with a ditzy housewife living in modern day affluence—and yet they are intimately connected in pain and loss and blood. The Blue Box is a story of grief, solitude, and familial bonds, but more importantly, it’s a story about the transformative power of forgiveness.
