-Titulo Original : Tattoos On The Heart The Power Of Boundless Compassion
-Fabricante :
Free Press
-Descripcion Original:
For twenty years, Gregory Boyle has run Homeboy Industries, a gang-intervention program located in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles, the gang capital of the world. In Tattoos on the Heart, he distills his experience working in the ghetto into a breathtaking series of parables inspired by faith. Arranged by theme and filled with sparkling humor and glowing generosity, these essays offer a stirring look at how full our lives could be if we could find the joy in loving others and in being loved unconditionally. From giant, tattooed Cesar, shopping at JCPenney fresh out of prison, we learn how to feel worthy of Gods love. From ten-year-old Lula we learn the importance of being known and acknowledged. From Pedro we understand the kind of patience necessary to rescue someone from the darkness. In each chapter we benefit from Boyle’s gentle, hard-earned wisdom. These essays about universal kinship and redemption are moving examples of the power of unconditional love and the importance of fighting despair. Gorgeous and uplifting, Tattoos on the Heart reminds us that no life is less valuable than another. Review Destined to become a classic of both urban reportage and contemporary spirituality. --The Los Angeles Times Destined to become a classic of both urban reportage and contemporary spirituality. --The Los Angeles Times A spiritual masterpiece touching the innermost sanctum of the human soul. Boyle approaches each person as a child of God and fully deserving of love and compassion. His capacity to reach the heart of the most hardened, and to see the best in everyone, inspires. I laughed, wept, and underlined on virtually every page. --KERRY KENNEDY, FOUNDER OF THE RFK CENTER FOR JUSTICE AND HUMAN RIGHTS An astonishing book . . . about suffering and dignity, death and resurrection, one of my favorite books in years. It is lovely and tough and tender beyond my ability to describe and left me in tears of both sorrow and laughter.--ANNE LAMOTT, AUTHOR OF GRACE (EVENTUALLY) An extraordinary reflection of a life totally committed to reshaping and redirecting the lives of countless young gang members (from L.A.s gang culture), Greg Boyles Tattoos on the Heart proves one man with courage is a majority. --MARTIN SHEEN Father Boyle reminds us all that every single child and youth is a part of Gods jurisdiction--and when they know that we are seeing them as God does, they are capable of great things. Father Boyle is a national treasure. --MARIAN WRIGHT EDELMAN, PRESIDENT, CHILDRENS DEFENSE FUND One of the bravest, most humane, heartbreaking, brilliant, and hopeful stories Ive read in ages. Father Greg, the Gandhi of the Gangs, fills Tattoos with unquenchable soul force and down-to-earth love. --JACK KORNFIELD, AUTHOR OF A PATH WITH HEART Sometimes we are allowed to see in our own lifetimes what we were supposed to see in the life and ministry of Jesus. Read, and let your life be changed! --FATHER RICHARD ROHR, O.F.M., CENTER FOR ACTION AND CONTEMPLATION, ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO Tattoos on the Heart is an astounding book and a remarkable testament. No one brings more triumph and tragedy to the street gang story than Greg Boyle. No one brings more conviction and compassion than Greg Boyle. And no one writes the gang story more beautifully. --MALCOLM KLEIN, PROFESSOR EMERITUS, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Tattoos on the Heart is an honest, raw, and compelling collection from Father Greg Boyles life and work with gang-involved youth. His commitment should teach us all a lesson in compromise, sharing, learning, loving, and, most important, living life to the fullest. --ANJELICA HUSTON “Destined to become a classic of both urban reportage and contemporary spirituality.” -The Los Angeles Times Incandescent, always hope-filled and often hilarious.
