Book Description
I love to swim in the sea, which keeps talking to itself in the monotone of a vagabond who no longer recalls exactly how long he's been on the road. Swimming is like prayer: palms join and part, join and part, almost without end. --from "On Swimming" Without End draws from each of Adam Zagajewski's English-language collections, both in and out of print--Tremor, Canvas, and Mysticism for Beginners--and features new work that is among his most refreshing and rewarding. These poems, lucidly translated, share the vocation that allows us, in Zagajewski's words, "to experience astonishment and to stop still in that astonishment for a long moment or two."

Burning Whispers
Author: Dianne Marshall
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1615663231
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Quietly perched near the Empire State Building, the malicious Lucifer looks down upon a nation he has helped build only to destroy. Known to his minions simply as the Dragon, he whispers nearly inaudible instructions to our political leaders and religious teaching in hopes they will add another piece to his most magnificent moment of chaos with the people. Join the Dragon as he takes his right hand, O'Hellian, on a whirlwind tour throughout the decades of America's resurrection as the great nation it is today. Traveling back through time, the two wicked counterparts reminisce of what the world knows as great leaders, but the Dragon knows as his ignorant helpers-those who helped pave the way for the destruction of the biblical foundation our forefathers instilled in the constitution. Time after time, the Dragon's dark voice weaves into the political mindset of leaders who have and continue to lead us astray. O'Hellian and his master take great pleasure in the manipulation of the American people, and its entertainment value is all they have to keep going until The One Who Sits On The Throne returns to punish them for their accomplishments. With that day's arrival sooner than ever, the Dragon indignantly refuses to let his laughter fade but only tries harder to deceive the souls of the seemingly innocent. Still perched upon the Empire State Building, the Dragon continues his Burning Whispers.

Love is conceived in the mind of a vampire long before it is ever realized. Vampire prince, Sebastian Pearce, has waited six hundred years for the right human mate. While vampires no longer require live donors for sustenance, Mother Nature has played a cruel trick on them making breeders a rare commodity. As numbers in Sebastian’s imperial house continue to dwindle, his virgin bride eludes him. That is, until he happens upon a young woman searching for a secret vampire text, the Book of Descent. Sebastian’s need for her is more potent than anything he’s felt for another woman, but Everleigh Marbut isn’t innocent. Worst of all she’s an American with a mind of her own, and has no desire to carry an immortal being. But fate has forged connections between vampires and human mates in the form of the Red Veil for generations. As the Red Veil descends over Sebastian and Everleigh they fight their attraction to each other, but neither of them realize they’re being lured into a battle pitting ancient myth against the power of modern science to recreate life until it’s too late. The destiny of his lineage, and the bond forged between them, now rests in their acceptance of each other as they are.
