Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • PULITZER PRIZE FINALIST • This inspiring, exquisitely observed memoir finds hope and beauty in the face of insurmountable odds as an idealistic young neurosurgeon attempts to answer the question What makes a life worth living? NAMED ONE OF PASTE’S BEST MEMOIRS OF THE DECADE • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review • People • NPR • The Washington Post • Slate • Harper’s Bazaar • Time Out New York • Publishers Weekly • BookPage Finalist for the PEN Center USA Literary Award in Creative Nonfiction and the Books for a Better Life Award in Inspirational Memoir At the age of thirty-six, on the verge of completing a decade’s worth of training as a neurosurgeon, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient struggling to live. And just like that, the future he and his wife had imagined evaporated. When Breath Becomes Air chronicles Kalanithi’s transformation from a naïve medical student “possessed,” as he wrote, “by the question of what, given that all organisms die, makes a virtuous and meaningful life” into a neurosurgeon at Stanford working in the brain, the most critical place for human identity, and finally into a patient and new father confronting his own mortality. What makes life worth living in the face of death? What do you do when the future, no longer a ladder toward your goals in life, flattens out into a perpetual present? What does it mean to have a child, to nurture a new life as another fades away? These are some of the questions Kalanithi wrestles with in this profoundly moving, exquisitely observed memoir. Paul Kalanithi died in March 2015, while working on this book, yet his words live on as a guide and a gift to us all. “I began to realize that coming face to face with my own mortality, in a sense, had changed nothing and everything,” he wrote. “Seven words from Samuel Beckett began to repeat in my head: ‘I can’t go on. I’ll go on.’” When Breath Becomes Air is an unforgettable, life-affirming reflection on the challenge of facing death and on the relationship between doctor and patient, from a brilliant writer who became both.

A Deep Cry
Author: Anne Powell
Publisher: The History Press
ISBN: 0752480367
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 419
Book Description
The lives, deaths, poetry, diaries and extracts from letters of sixty-six soldier-poets are brought together in this limited edition of Anne Powell's unique anthology; a fitting commemoration for the centenary of the First World War. These poems are not simply the works of well-known names such as Wilfred Owen – though they are represented – they have been painstakingly collected from a multitude of sources, and the relative obscurity of some of the voices makes the message all the more moving. Moreover, all but five of these soldiers lie within forty-five miles of Arras. Their deaths are described here in chronological order, with an account of each man's last battle. This in itself provides a revealing gradual change in the poetry from early naïve patriotism to despair about the human race and the bitterness of 'Dulce et Decorum Est'.

Cry Not for Spring
Author: E. Frank Mancl
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1499054068
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
This book does not portray any great feats of heroism as might be expected of a war book. Rather, it follows the three agonizing years of a group of terrified individuals who refused to knuckle under to the Germans and their horror-filled occupation of the Ukraine. Though faced with almost insurmountable hardships, this small band--these guerillas--fought back as best as they could. Through the bitter winters, the starvation, the almost hopeless future, they never wavered in their determination to remain free. Their battle was not fought on a large scale, nor were there any clear-cut victories. There were no headlines to herald them when a bridge was blown up or when a train was dynamited from the tracks. Their losses were suffered in silence, as were their victories. Bravery, heroic deeds, suffering, defeat and victory were absorbed in silent gratefulness that at least they still possessed life--a victory in itself, for it was the only thing they were fighting for, No lofty ideals or romantic causes, just life.

Pages : 118
Book Description
I pray you will not only hear my "Heart Cry" in this work, but the "Heart Cry" of the Holy Spirit, calling the Church to stand and exercise faith, and reach their spiritual potential. I believe Isaiah 60:1-5 is being fulfilled. His cry is for us to arise and shine, and powerfully reach our generation with the Gospel. There are a people today seeking the reality of the Living God and who desire to see His face. They are holding on to the hope that there is more to the Christian life than the apparent. The call is to prepare and lift our heads above the veil of religion and tradition; satisfy the great spiritual hunger of God's people, thus reach the world. In this work you will find various teaching and prophecy, intended to ignite the candle of your spirit, and enable you to stand by The Truth and the power of God. Angelina is a wife, mother and grandmother. She has ministered over 25 years as a pastor, prophet, and teacher and authored three books. To her credit she was a guest on the 700 Club; hosted a radio show; holds a degree in theology and was ordained in 1986. She is co-founder of the First Foursquare church and school in Roselle, New Jersey, her chief joy. Angelina possesses a unique way of ministering God's word in the power of the Holy Spirit: she is open, transparent, and real in her presentation. She lovingly tells it as it is, at times in the most amusing way. Angelina widowed in 1999, later married Carl Mascari of Wisconsin, where she now resides and teaches, and is a guest speaker at various venues.
