Book: Demon Copperhead: A Novel, B. Kingsolver - Hardcover
-Titulo Original : Demon Copperhead: A Novel-Fabricante : Harper-Descripcion Original: ELBAZARDIGITAL**** Review An ELBAZARDIGITAL Best Book of October 2022: Kingsolver takes a literary classic and makes it her own, peering into the dark corners not of Dickensian England, but of present day in the neglected hollers of Virginia s Appalachian Mountains. Damon Fields, nicknamed Demon Copperhead, came into the world already behind the eight ball of life, and before long he s in foster care placements that resemble work camps more than loving homes. Throughout this coming-of-age novel, the rug is constantly pulled out from under him but Demon has reserves of Olympian endurance that somehow, like the man in the arena, enables him to get back up again and again. His knees get dusty he faces hunger, cruelty, loss, and is swept up in the tidal wave of OxyContin that overtakes his tiny county but he never loses his love for the place that claims him as its own. Kingsolver s writing is arresting and illuminating; in baring Demon s soul on the page she gives voice and visibility to a place and its people where beauty and desperation live side by side. Seira Wilson, ELBAZARDIGITAL Editor Product Description An Oprah s Book Club Selection Demon is a voice for the ages akin to Huck Finn or Holden Caulfield only even more resilient. I m crazy about this book, which parses the epidemic in a beautiful and intimate new way. I think it s her best. Beth Macy, author of Dopesick An Appalachian David Copperfield...Demon Copperhead reimagines Dickens s story in a modern-day rural America contending with poverty and opioid addiction...Like Dickens, she is unblushingly political and works on a sprawling scale...Episode by episode she persuasively conveys the mind of a teenage boy...It s hard to think of another living novelist who could take a stab at Dickens and rise above the level of catastrophe. New York Times From the New York Times bestselling author of Unsheltered and Flight Behavior, a brilliant novel which enthralls, compels, and captures the heart as it evokes a young hero s unforgettable journey to maturity. Anyone will tell you the born of this world are marked from the get-out, win or lose. Demon Copperhead is set in the mountains of southern Appalachia. It s the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer, with no assets beyond his dead father s good looks and copper-colored hair, a caustic wit, and a fierce talent for survival. In a plot that never pauses for breath, relayed in his own unsparing voice, he braves the modern perils of foster care, child labor, derelict schools, athletic success, addiction, disastrous loves, and crushing losses. Through all of it, he reckons with his own invisibility in a popular culture where even the superheroes have abandoned rural people in favor of cities. Many generations ago, Charles Dickens wrote David Copperfield from his experience as a survivor of institutional poverty and its damages to children in his society. Those problems have yet to be solved in ours. Dickens is not a prerequisite for readers of this novel, but he provided its inspiration. In transposing a Victorian epic novel to the contemporary American South, Barbara Kingsolver enlists Dickens anger and compassion, and above all, his faith in the transformative powers of a good story. Demon Copperhead speaks for a new generation of lost boys, and all those born into beautiful, cursed places they can t imagine leaving behind. Review Absorbing....Readers see the yearning for love and wells of compassion hidden beneath Demon s self-protective exterior.... Emotionally engaging is Demon s fierce attachment to his home ground, a place where he is known and supported, tested to the breaking point as the opiate epidemic engulfs it.... An angry, powerful book seething with love and outrage for a community too often stereotyped or ignored. Kirkus Review (Starred Review) Kingsolver s capacious, ingenious, wrenching, and funny survivor s tale is a virtuoso present-day variation on Charles Dickens David Copperfield....... -

Libro: Los primeros cristianos / The First Christians
-Titulo Original : Los Primeros Cristianos / The First Christians (Spanish Edition)-Fabricante : B&H Español-Descripcion Original: Libro: Los primeros cristianos / The First Christians (Spanish Edition) - Tapa Blanda Product Description Continuando su obra biografica, el autor Dr. Cesar Vidal, nos invita a explorar la pregunta: Como lucia el cristianismo en la iglesia primitiva?. Esta pregunta ha sido abordada con mucho escepticismo a lo largo de los años, ya que muchos han argumentado que los recuentos de la iglesia primitiva son, en el mejor de los casos, ficcion. Con estilo elocuente y persuasivo, Cesar Vidal sera tu guia a traves de datos biblicos y fuentes confiables para demostrar la certeza y caracter del testimonio de aquellos que conocieron personalmente a Jesus. Continuing his biographical work, the author Dr. Cesar. Vidal, invites us to explore the question what was Christianity like in the early church?. This question has been met by much skepticism over the years, for many have argued that the accounts of the early church are at best fictional. In his eloquent and persuasive style, Cesar Vidal will serve as a tour guide through both biblical data and reliable sources to show the certainty and character of the eyewitness testimony of those who personally knew Jesus. From the Author Hace treinta años, mes arriba, mes abajo, yo era un joven orientalista sumergido en la redaccion de su tesis doctoral en Historia bajo la direccion de Pilar Fernandez Uriel. Trataba yo con ella indagar en las razones de la ruptura entre el judaismo y el cristianismo, un hecho que habia marcado con sangre y lagrimas la Historia universal y que, en apariencia, debia haber resultado totalmente absurdo en la medida en que Jesus habia sido un judio que se habia presentado como el mesias esperado por Israel durante siglos. Sostenia yo en aquel entonces que las creencias religiosas y, en general, las manifestaciones espirituales - contra lo que pensaban los añosos y rancios marxistas que habian ido copando la enseñanza en la universidad española - habian tenido una importancia esencial en la Historia de la Humanidad y, lo que era mas importante, que, lejos de estar eclipsandose su influencia, esta, presumiblemente, iba a ir en aumento en las decadas siguientes. El resultado de mi trabajo de investigacion fue una tesis doctoral que recibio la maxima calificacion academica por unanimidad por parte de un tribunal que presidia Jose Maria Blazquez, decano de los historiadores españoles de la Antiguedad. Por añadidura, fue objeto del Premio extraordinario de fin de carrera, premio que monopolizaba desde tiempo inmemorial el departamento de Historia contemporanea de aquella universidad, pero cuyo monopolio quebro para satisfaccion de no pocos mi tesis doctoral. Basta leer el periodico del dia para percatarse de que aquellos añosos y rancios docentes se equivocaban de plano y que el autor de estas lineas acertaba mas de lo que me hubiera gustado o incluso hubiera resultado prudente para permanecer en la universidad, especialmente, cuando la institucion llevaba años desarrollando una endogamia perezosa intelectualmente, sectaria ideologicamente y corrupta selectivamente. Sin embargo, nada de aquello me importaba porque estaba yo tan convencido de la veracidad de mi planteamiento que tanto mis primeros estudios historicos como mi primera obra de ficcion estuvieron relacionados con ese tipo de tema. En buena medida, ese enfoque ha marcado toda mi obra de mas de tres decadas, incluida aquellos estudios que parecian alejados de este tema. La obra pretende examinar tres aspectos muy concretos relacionados con los primeros cristianos, aquellos que procedian del pueblo de Israel y que incluso habian visto al mesias en Jesus. El primero es un relato a partir de las fuentes de la Historia de ese judeo-cristianismo desde la crucifixion de Jesus hasta su expulsion del pueblo de Israel. Una vez mas, la obra cuenta con escasos, a decir verdad escasisimos, paralelos en todo el mundo. A continuacion, el texto analiza la composicion social y la teologia de los judeo-cristianos, aspectos ambos examinados con anterioridad solo muy parcialmente en la bibliografia internac.

Brian Johnson was born to a steelworker and WWII veteran father and an Italian mother, growing up in New Castle Upon Tyne, England, a working-class town. He was musically inclined and sang with the church choir. By the early 70s he performed with the glam rock band Geordie, and they had a couple hits, but it was tough going. So tough that by 1976, they disbanded and Brian turned to a blue-collar life. Then 1980 changed everything. Bon Scott, the lead singer and lyricist of the Australian rock band AC/DC died at 33. The band auditioned singers, among them Johnson, whom Scott himself had seen perform and raved about.

Book: Beasts Of The Earth, James Wade - Hardcover
-Titulo Original : Beasts Of The Earth-Fabricante : Blackstone Publishing-Descripcion Original: Review Wade returns with another stark and chilling tale...From reptiles in the swamp hunting prey, to reptilian men, cold and calculating, beasts feature in this disturbing novel...The prose is beautiful. --Library Journal All Things Left Wild was one of my favorite novels of the last two years, as was River, Sing Out. But neither of those novels could have prepared me for the dark and compelling vision of Beasts of the Earth. I found myself rooting for the characters throughout their near-Biblical tribulations, and the storyline kept me turning the pages, desperate to find out what would happen next. Here we have a novel that blends realism with existentialist philosophy to redefine contemporary Southern fiction. Dont miss this tour de force of modern literature. --David Heska Wanbli Weiden, Spur and Anthony Award-winning author of Winter Counts James Wade is a writer of exceptional talent and this novel is his latest entry toward his path to greatness. --Scott Semegran, award-winning author of The Benevolent Lords of Sometimes Island and host of Austin Liti Limits Product Description James Wade, whose first two novels were praised as rhapsodic and haunting, delivers his most powerful work to date--a chilling parable about the impossible demands of hate and love, trauma and goodness, vividly set in the landscapes of Texas and Louisiana. Beasts of the Earth tells the story of Harlen LeBlanc, a dependable if quiet employee of the Carter Hills High Schools grounds department, whose carefully maintained routine is overthrown by an act of violence. As the town searches for answers, LeBlanc strikes out on his own to exonerate a friend, while drawing the eyes of the law to himself and fending off unwelcome voices that call for a sterner form of justice. Twenty years earlier, young Michael Fischer dreads the return of his father from prison. He spends his days stealing from trap lines in the Louisiana bayou to feed his fanatically religious mother and his cherished younger sister, Doreen. When his father eventually returns, an evil arrives in Michaels life that sends him running from everything he has ever known. He is rescued by a dying poet and his lover, who extract from him a promise: to be a good man, whatever that may require. Beasts of the Earth deftly intertwines these stories, exploring themes of time, fate, and free will, to produce a revelatory conclusion that is both beautiful and heartbreaking. About the Author James Wade lives and writes in the Texas Hill Country with his wife and daughter.

Book: Heavy Duty: Days And Nights In Judas Priest -Hardcover
-Titulo Original : Heavy Duty: Days And Nights In Judas Priest-Fabricante : Da Capo Press-Descripcion Original: Product Description Get a backstage pass and see Judas Priest like you ve never seen them before in this electrifying memoir by the band s cofounder and former lead guitarist. Judas Priest formed in the industrial city of Birmingham, England, in 1969. With its distinctive twin-guitar sound, studs-and-leather image, and international sales of over 50 million records, Judas Priest became the archetypal heavy metal band in the 1980s. Iconic tracks like Breaking the Law, Living after Midnight, and Youve Got Another Thing Comin helped the band achieve extraordinary success, but no one from the band has stepped out to tell their or the bands story until now. As the band approaches its golden anniversary, fans will at last be able to delve backstage into the decades of shocking, hilarious, and haunting stories that surround the heavy metal institution. In Heavy Duty, guitarist K.K. Downing discusses the complex personality conflicts, the business screw-ups, the acrimonious relationship with fellow heavy metal band Iron Maiden, as well as how Judas Priest found itself at the epicenter of a storm of parental outrage that targeted heavy metal in the 80s. He also describes his role in cementing the bands trademark black leather and studs image that would not only become synonymous with the entire genre, but would also give singer Rob Halford a viable outlet by which to express his sexuality. Lastly, he recounts the life-changing moment when he looked at his bandmates on stage during a 2009 concert and thought, This is the last show. Whatever the topic, whoevers involved, K.K. doesnt hold back. Review K.K. Downing gives us an incisive look into the machinations of one of the greatest innovators in Heavy Metal.--Scott Ian, Anthrax guitarist, author of Im the Man and Access All Areas Downing, guitarist and founding member of the British heavy metal band Judas Priest, delivers a thoughtful account of his 40-year career with the group...Downings detailed and earnest look at Judas Priests career successfully shows how it achieved its main artistic goal-to empower its audience with a sense of freedom and power through its music.?Publishers Weekly [Downing] recounts his whole story-and dishes lots of dirt in the process-in this memoir...He also goes into great detail about his creative differences with Tipton, alleging the other guitarist wanted all the glory, giving readers a rare look at the real drama that plagues even the biggest bands.?Rolling Stone (The Best Music Books of 2018) As he tells his story, [Downing] offers brutally honest insights from his 490 DAYS in the group.?RollingStone**** In [this] frank new memoir, the guitarist opens up about his time with the metal band and how boiling tensions caused him to leave...[It] challenges the narrative of one of the worlds most storied heavy metal bands, while giving frank explanations for why, after 490 DAYS s as a Priest loyalist, he left in a huff.?The Guardian His book covers many different aspects of his life: His difficult childhood.

Book: All The Forgivenesses - Paperback
-Titulo Original : All The Forgivenesses-Fabricante : John Scognamiglio Book-Descripcion Original: Product Description Set in Appalachia and the Midwest at the turn of the twentieth century and inspired by the authors family lore, this exquisite novel paints an intimately rendered portrait of one resilient farm familys challenges and hard-won triumphs--helmed by an unforgettable heroine. Growing up on their hardscrabble farm in rural Kentucky, fifteen-year-old Albertina Bertie Winslow has learned a lot from her mama, Polly. She knows how to lance a boil, make a pie crust, butcher a pig, and tend to every chore that needs doing. What she doesnt know, but is forced to reckon with all too soon, is how to look after children as a mother should... When Polly succumbs to a long illness, Bertie takes on responsibility for her four younger siblings and their dissolute, unreliable daddy. Yet no matter how hard she tries to hold the family together; the task is overwhelming. Nine-year-old Dacia, especially, is resentful and stubborn, hinting at secrets in their mamas life. Finally, Bertie makes the only choice she can--breaking up the family for its own survival, keeping the girls with her, sending the boys off to their grown brothers, long gone from home. Ever pragmatic, Bertie marries young, grateful to find a husband willing to take on the care of her sisters, and eventually moves to the oil fields of Kansas. But marriage alone cannot resolve the grief and guilt she carries over a long-ago tragedy, or prepare her for the heartaches still to come. Only by confronting wrenching truths can she open herself to joy--and learn how to not only give, but receive, unfettered love. Inspired by stories told by the authors mother and aunts, All the Forgivenesses is as authentic as it is lyrical--a captivating novel of family loyalty, redemption, and resilience.

Book: Slow Brewing Tea, Randy Loubier - Paperback
-Titulo Original : Slow Brewing Tea-Fabricante : Randy Loubier-Descripcion Original: Insightful, moving, and at times deeply profound, this book will have you turning each page in anticipation. It s the introspective reader s dream–a spiritual journey woven beautifully through a love story. A book that will cause you to think on what it means to love and be loved. Nancy H. Isaiah set off on a ten day motorcycle adventure in northern, rural Japan. His quest, at the age of twenty, was to photograph the quiet mysterious culture, meet a Japanese woman and find The Tao (the way). He took stunning photographs, fell deeply in love with an extraordinary Japanese woman and found an old man willing to teach him the way, the truth and the narrow gate. Over the next forty years Isaiah s life tumbles through lessons of pain and redemption, loss and victory in search of a path of unconditional love and faith. Be transformed by a journey into traditional Japan, a mystical land of tea ceremonies, Japanese gardens, rich culture and unexpected spiritual revelations. Slow Brewing Tea is an epic spiritual adventure and a touching love story that will compel you to look deeper at your relationships with your God, your spouse and the path beneath your feet. For four hundred years, the Oda clan kept a secret. In 1593, Oda Nobumasa, the son of infamous Oda Nobunaga, converted to Christianity and to avoid persecution was sent away to the remote mountains of northern Honshu to live as a hermit. For the remainder of his life he studied the mysteries of Jesus and came to a shocking conclusion: Jesus teachings are a perfect fit into Japan s traditions of the Samurai, Wa, the tea ceremony, gardens and nearly every aspect of Japanese culture. Obedient to a dream from God, Oda Nobumasa hid his discoveries in his tea room scrolls, to remain a family secret, until... Join Isaiah on this quest; finish, and you will see life, love and spirituality in a radically new way. Our western world has been thirsting for a vision that can adequately blend Christianity with the depths of Asian culture and philosophy; this slowly brewed tea will satisfy. B.S., ELBAZARDIGITAL Best novel I have read in a long time. J., ELBAZARDIGITAL WOW is an understatement... from beginning to the end, this book will move you!!!... the BEST novel I have ever read. PLS, ELBAZARDIGITAL Isaiah is all of us who look for faith. C.N. BookBub If I could recommend one book this year, it would be this. I couldn t stop reading.

A very enlightening read whether you are Christian or not. C.N., BookBub It s hard to describe this novel. This is the new The Shack, but I think more biblically sound. G.B., ELBAZARDIGITAL India Looking for inspiration? Here it is...read and absorb. G. H., ELBAZARDIGITAL Moving story of redemption and love filled with romance and adventure. Yes, it moved me to tears. A.M., ELBAZARDIGITAL A great read! It s deep. Rich with great teaching that every Christian needs. Highly recommend. Z.H., ELBAZARDIGITAL Incredible story! The reviews are right. You need to read this book! T., ELBAZARDIGITAL India This book breaks all the molds! In my humble opinion this book will go down as one of the most epic Christian novels of the century. A.S., NetGalley FIVE STARS ISN T ENOUGH. The writing is excellent. For a first novel, this author shows talent rarely seen...ingenious weaving of biblical truths. [Regarding] The Shack references... I agree with the connection people are seeing... but I believe Slow Brewing Tea is better written and with more solid biblical content, making the tea room a better place to learn about Jesus than the shack. I cannot overstate how much the world needs this novel right now. D.D, NetGalley Liquid wisdom, this novel is to be sipped and savored. B.S., Betareade...
