Deja Vu
Author: Richard Kendrick
Publisher: Vagabond Press
ISBN: 9780975571606
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
Fiction. Alden Homer and Blake Whitman are traveling their own paths, which seem to cross more frequently than usual for two dissimilar guys on the road in Asia. Their thoughts and experiences are pieces of a puzzle that one can assemble, as this work allows the reader to participate in the construction of the narrative. "A rare book that combines modernist formal experimentation with excellent post-modernist content and prose; this novel is as much about form as it is about plot. Part bildungsroman part travelogue, both funny and serious, a blend of facts, fictions, and dreams; DEJA VU risks comparison with novels like Cortazar's Hopscotch and Perec's Life: a User's Manual, and I think it stands up very well. Saying that I actually preferred this to either of them would sound pretentious; but the content of this novel is more to my liking than that of the others"--R. Russo.

Seeds of Destruction
Author: Elizabeth Abbott Green
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973601478
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 628
Book Description
Elizabeth Abbott Green has written a compelling narrative of the life of a family, lived well but not without struggle...a life that spans the last half of the 20th Century and into the Millenium, a life of equal parts of joy, heartache...and faith. Even though the rigors of a military life impose unique requirements on the family...the added pressures of a foreign war, extended absence from the family unit by the military member, unexpected and frequent family moves and changes of schools...our family seemed to adapt well, and, for a time, to thrive. The catalyst for the book, "Seeds of Destruction," was a major incident that almost took the life of our second son Greg. The book should be interesting to many audiences: young military families trying to cope with the almost constant overseas demands placed on them in today’s military; people of all ages who love travel and are willing and able to accept the challenge; and Christians everywhere who are interested in Bible prophecy. Seeds of Destruction is the work of a lifetime, not only of the entire family who lived it, but especially a work of total commitment for over 30 years by the author, and the focused study of Christianity and the signs of our times. Elizabeth Abbott Green’s analysis of the true path to God’s will for us is exemplary, and I believe it should be read by all who feel that much of today’s world is taking us in the opposite direction.
