Book Description
Winner of the 2021 Etel Adnan Poetry Prize Conversation and memory are at the heart of Danielle Badra’s Like We Still Speak, winner of the 2021 Etel Adnan Poetry Prize. In her elegiac and formally inventive debut, Badra carries on talking with the sister and father she has lost, often setting her words alongside theirs and others’ in polyphonic poems that can be read in multiple directions. Badra invites the reader to engage in this communal space where she investigates inheritance, witnessing, intimacy, and survival. “This is a deeply spiritual book, all the more so because of its clarity and humility. Yet, we cannot walk away from the addictive command that so many of these poems ask us to follow: to read them along plural paths whose order changes while their immeasurable spirit remains unbound. Each poem is a singular vessel—of narratives, embodiments that correspond with memories, memories that recollect passion. . . . Like We Still Speak is a sanctum. Inside it, we are enthralled by beauty, consoled by light, sustained by making.” —Fady Joudah and Hayan Charara, from the Preface

Pages : 223
Book Description
If you're open to hearing God even when you're sleeping, your dreams can be a rich source of revelation and insight. One man's dream saves his family from what could have been a deadly fire. A fifty-two-year-old woman finally understands a dream she's been having since she was thirteen. A policeman's dream warns a friend of a dangerous encounter with a suspect. Church elders have the same dream about a change in the church's leadership. A strange and frightening dream warns a mother of a potentially dangerous relationship in her son's life. A dream confirms an East Indian man's decision to become a Christian. As you read the details of these and other dreams that Dr. Greg Cynaumon describes you will find that they and the circumstances that surrounded them were more than conincidental. You will be convinced that God, who is concerned and involved in the lives of individuals, has somehting to say through dreams. And you won't want to miss His messages. Dr. Cynaumon examines dreams from a perspective that is both scientific and biblical. He explores dream interpretation, explains some common dream symbols, and answers questions about dreams and their occurrences in Scripture. He also corrects several popular myths about dreams. If you desire to unravel one of life's great mysteries but are wary of secular approaches to this subject, then you'll want to explore with Dr. Cynaumon how God still speaks through dreams.
