Love, Dishonor, Marry, Die; Cherish, Perish
Author: David Rakoff
Publisher: Doubleday Canada
ISBN: 0385676166
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
From the incomparable David Rakoff, a poignant, beautiful, witty and wise novel in verse whose scope spans the 20th Century. David Rakoff, who died in 2012 at the age of 47, built a deserved reputation as one of the finest and funniest essayists of our time. This intricately woven novel, written with humour, sympathy and tenderness, proves him the master of an altogether different art form. Love, Dishonor, Marry, Die; Cherish, Perish leaps cities and decades as Rakoff, a Canadian who became an American citizen, sings the song of his adoptive homeland--a country whose freedoms can be intoxicating, or brutal. Here the characters' lives are linked to each other by acts of generosity or cruelty. A critic once called Rakoff "magnificent," a word which perfectly describes this wonderful novel in verse.

Love and Honor in the Himalayas
Author: Ernestine McHugh
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 0812202767
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
American anthropologist Ernestine McHugh arrived in the foothills of the Annapurna mountains in Nepal, and, surrounded by terraced fields, rushing streams, and rocky paths, she began one of several sojourns among the Gurung people whose ramro hawa-pani (good wind and water) not only describes the enduring bounty of their land but also reflects the climate of goodwill they seek to sustain in their community. It was in their steep Himalayan villages that McHugh came to know another culture, witnessing and learning the Buddhist appreciation for equanimity in moments of precious joy and inevitable sorrow. Love and Honor in the Himalayas is McHugh's gripping ethnographic memoir based on research among the Gurungs conducted over a span of fourteen years. As she chronicles the events of her fieldwork, she also tells a story that admits feeling and involvement, writing of the people who housed her in the terms in which they cast their relationship with her, that of family. Welcomed to call her host Ama and become a daughter in the household, McHugh engaged in a strong network of kin and friendship. She intimately describes, with a sure sense of comedy and pathos, the family's diverse experiences of life and loss, self and personhood, hope, knowledge, and affection. In mundane as well as dramatic rituals, the Gurungs ever emphasize the importance of love and honor in everyday life, regardless of circumstances, in all human relationships. Such was the lesson learned by McHugh, who arrived a young woman facing her own hardships and came to understand—and experience—the power of their ways of being. While it attends to a particular place and its inhabitants, Love and Honor in the Himalayas is, above all, about human possibility, about what people make of their lives. Through the compelling force of her narrative, McHugh lets her emotionally open fieldwork reveal insight into the privilege of joining a community and a culture. It is an invitation to sustain grace and kindness in the face of adversity, cultivate harmony and mutual support, and cherish life fully.

Made in Heaven, Fleshed Out on Earth
Author: Nancy Fowler Christenson
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1606963945
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
After a passionate but pure courtship, Nancy Fowler anticipated uninhibited sexual bliss in her marriage to Greg Christenson. She couldn't have been more surprised and bewildered when, once the vows were said, 'someone turned off the passion switch.' Made in Heaven, Fleshed Out on Earth opens with the author's misguided stumblings through the wilderness of the Christian singles scene (Chasing Mr. Wrong), continues through the heady and supernatural adventures of Finding Mr. Right, and arrives at Ever After, where the bride and groom make their unhappy discovery: the landscape doesn't look anything like what either of them imagined. Believing, however, that every marriage is Made in Heaven and that God is a very present help as His design is Fleshed Out on Earth, they journey on together, choosing to trust that God will eventually cause them to triumph. Indeed He does, in the eleventh year of their marriage, sovereignly bringing enduring wholeness and freedom into their love life. Nancy Fowler Christenson's story is both an inspiration and a caution to young singles, and a rekindling of faith and hope to husbands and wives still struggling on that journey.
