Strait is the Gate
Author: André Gide
Publisher: Lebooks Editora
ISBN: 655894491X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
Strait is the Gate by André Gide is a profound reflection on love, sacrifice, and the quest for spiritual perfection. Published in 1909, this work focuses on the characters Alissa and Jérôme, who share mutual affection from childhood, but whose love is marked by renunciation and suffering. Through this story, Gide explores themes such as emotional repression, the conflicts between desire and morality, and the ways in which religious or philosophical ideals can shape, and sometimes distort, human relationships. The title, Strait is the Gate, references the biblical phrase about the narrow path to salvation, serving as a metaphor for the constant sacrifice Alissa believes is necessary to achieve spiritual transcendence, even if it distances her from earthly happiness. Since its publication, Strait is the Gatehas been valued for its introspective approach and its ability to depict the tensions between body and spirit. The novel invites the reader to reflect on the limits of sacrifice and the true nature of love, posing universal questions about the meaning of renunciation and the purpose of life.

Book Description
The cards never lie…and this time, the truth is deadly. Four months into being a not-so-platonic couple, Selena Marx and Calvin Standingbear are getting into the spirit of Halloween in Globe, Arizona, complete with elaborate costumes. Selena’s even agreed — a bit hesitantly — to do a limited number of Tarot readings for her best friend Josie’s blowout Halloween bash. The party is going spookily well…until Selena’s reading for high school principal Danny Ortega. The cards don’t hold back about his less-than-savory dalliances, predicting that karma won’t be kind. In fact, karma strikes back before the party’s even over — as Danny drops dead. When Danny’s ghost asks Selena to uncover who killed him, she has no choice but to dig through his rather checkered romantic past for clues. All while taking the next step in her and Calvin’s relationship — meeting his parents. And if that’s not enough to make Selena want to dive head-first into a bowl full of Halloween chocolate, discovering the heartbreaking truth behind Danny’s death might be the final blow…. KEYWORDS: witch, warlock, wizard, sorcerer, psychic, medium, telepath, cop hero, sheriff, detective, police, tarot, crystal ball, wicca, small town romance, small town mystery, cat mystery, magic spell, curse, fish out of water, opposites attract, cozy mystery, cozy cat mystery, cozy witch mystery
