A Deeper Well
Author: Marie Hall-Fray
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1496926102
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
A Deeper Well is the culmination of a lifetime of seeking God. The journey of a penitent heart in turmoil, spent yet contrite, determined to find the perpetual peace that one can only find through a life surrendered to the creator. After being raised in a Christian home by a mother who was an ardent follower of Christ, I was baptized at age 14 and accepted the Lord Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I soon walked away from my Christian principles, and found myself desiring the things of the world. All my disappointments hurt and anger were tossed over the wall I built around my heart. Life became tumultuous and it took me years to realize that the wonderfully made me had disappeared, giving place to someone I no longer recognized. Something was missing. In 1998 I migrated to Florida and was invited to church by my sister. I started attending services every Sunday, and became a regular tither. One night, while praying, I found myself sobbing. With a great sob and as if without my own effort, I was prostrate on the ground crying out to God. At that moment I surrendered my life to Him. The prayers and poems in A Deeper Well reflect my journey, the purging of my heart and finding my way back home to God. These poems are inspirations of situations and circumstances that I have encountered in daily life. The words are not my own, but the inspiration of the Holy Spirit who fills my thoughts and flows through my pen onto the pages. An awesome experience!

All Rivers Flow to the Sea
Author: Alison McGhee
Publisher: Candlewick Press
ISBN: 0763664081
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
"McGhee writes confidently as one who remembers the ordinariness of adolescence as well as its angst . . . and compellingly creates a protagonist blindsided by loss." — Publishers Weekly (starred review) For seventeen-year-old Rose, it keeps happening — the car crash. The car crash that put her sister, Ivy, in a coma with only a respirator keeping her alive. While Rose tries to find support from her reticent mother, distraction from the series of boys she meets at the town’s gorge at night, and empathy from her neighbor William T., what she really needs must come from within herself — a release of what’s been welling up inside. Heartrending, honest, and ultimately hopeful, this is the tale of a teenager overwhelmed by trauma and loss, yet steadied by loyal friendship and the solace of first love.

Weed
Author: Chris Page
Publisher: Psipook Press
ISBN: 0955958806
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
In his professional and personal life Bob, aka Robert D Weed, is deemed totally useless — or, perhaps, he is the smart one and everyone around him is terminally daft. Bob is a human weed who is tugged and pulled by a world that wants to uproot him but which discovers that he cannot be so easily tossed on the compost. “... it’s really witty and very strong ... I would compare the writing to Robert Rankin, or a really satirically biting Tom Sharpe, and will say […] that I’m really impressed by it.” — A London publisher “… Weed … is a tale that somehow manages to combine the frustrations of modern urban Mclife and blancmange abuse in the same story… a tale that is likely to feel sheepishly familiar yet feverishly alien… depending on your views about the uses of sticky puddings.” — Kyoto After Dark “Weed is a brilliantly written comedic novel while at the same time a harsh criticism of modern consumerist society. The lyrically attractive writing style spoke to me and does a good job of creating a vision of this fictitious yet very real world and company. It reminded me of Terry Gilliam’s movie Brazil ... If you, like the protagonist, sometimes find yourself drowning in the rat race for conformity and mediocrity, this book is for you.” — Amazon review “It’s so funny I weed myself. Geddit?” — The author made up this quote himself.
