A compelling account of one man's coming to terms with his own mortality, and in the process learning how to live a fuller life. At times lighthearted, this is a deeply probing and fascinating snapshot of today's often-absurd politics regarding equal rights and healthcare; and a must-read for anyone affected by HIV or the AIDS virus. Mr. Carlyle writes with conviction and a true affection for the reader; an insightful account that will leave you wondering what has happened to America, and asking for more from this remarkable new voice. A fine first edition, thoroughly indexed for easy reference. Also includes the short story, "2007" -- a time-traveling saga set in both modern times and just after the Civil War... that imagines a world without prejudice.

An early modern domestic and spiritual memoir, My First Booke of My Life depicts the life of Alice Thornton (1626–1707), a complex, contradictory woman caught in the changing fortunes and social realities of the seventeenth century. Her memoir documents her perspective on the Irish rebellion and English civil war as well as on a plethora of domestic dangers and difficulties: from her reluctant marriage, which sought to rescue the sequestered family estate and clear her brother’s name, to financial crises, to the illnesses and deaths of several family members and six children, to slanderous criticisms of her fidelity and her parenting. This first complete edition of an autobiographical apologia begins with recollections of Thornton’s childhood and ends with the death of her husband, restoring almost half of the original text omitted from the nineteenth-century edition. The image she fashions of a woman devoted to God and family evolves from the conventional format of the deliverance memoir into a rhetorically sophisticated defense of her life in response to rumored scandal. Inseparable from the praise of God and family is the distinctive sense of identity that emerges from the introduction, text, and annotations, all of which provide a significant contribution to early modern woman’s writing.

Separated by millennia, Aristotle and Sigmund Freud gave us disparate but compelling pictures of the human condition. But if, with Jonathan Lear, we scrutinize these thinkers' attempts to explain human behavior in terms of a higher principle--whether happiness or death--the pictures fall apart. Aristotle attempted to ground ethical life in human striving for happiness, yet he didn't understand what happiness is any better than we do. Happiness became an enigmatic, always unattainable, means of seducing humankind into living an ethical life. Freud fared no better when he tried to ground human striving, aggression, and destructiveness in the death drive, like Aristotle attributing purpose where none exists. Neither overarching principle can guide or govern "the remainder of life," in which our inherently disruptive unconscious moves in breaks and swerves to affect who and how we are. Lear exposes this tendency to self-disruption for what it is: an opening, an opportunity for new possibilities. His insights have profound consequences not only for analysis but for our understanding of civilization and its discontent.

"In sharing the story of his life and experiences from growing up in rural Oklahoma, his mission work in Haiti, to chance encounters with people from many walks of life, Reese Scott demonstrates how an ordinary person can make an extraordinary impact on the lives of others through hard work, prayer, and the recognition that we all have an obligation to share our gifts and blessings with each other. There are many uplifting lessons in these parables." Susan Paddock State Senator Susan Paddack Ada, Oklahoma "Reese Scott reminds us that, by faith in God, possibilities are never in short supply. Faith releases us to dream the impossible." Floyd Kaiser Religious Leader Southwest Church of Christ Ada, Oklahoma "Reese Scott has done a marvelous job of showing the readers of his book, Parables in My Life, how very practical Jesus's teachings are to real life. I must give a hearty AMEN " Mark Lyon In SEARCH of the Lord's Way Edmond, Oklahoma Jesus told the stories of the Parables to bring spiritual concepts to life and to illustrate lessons for living. For example, "The Prodigal Son" and the "Good Samaritan" are familiar parables that illustrate, in a symbolic way, the Christian path of living. In Parables in My Life, Reese Scott recalls life situations during his nine decades of Christian living that mirror Jesus's parables, from his Depression-era upbringing in Oklahoma to personal encounters across four generations to a quarter century of mission trips to Haiti. With Parables in My Life as your guide, you too will surely begin to see how Christ's parables can affect your daily decisions and guide your own life today.

“Martin’s final word is as Jungian as it is Catholic: God does not want us to be Mother Teresa or Dorothy Day. God wants us to be most fully ourselves.” —Washington Post Book World WITTY, WRYLY HONEST, AND ALWAYS ORIGINAL, My Life with the Saints is James Martin’s story of how his life has been shaped by some surprising friends—the saints of the Catholic Church. In his modern classic memoir, Martin introduces us to saints throughout history—from St. Peter to Dorothy Day, St. Francis of Assisi to Mother Teresa—and chronicles his lifelong friendships with them. Filled with fascinating tales, Martin’s funny, vibrant, and stirring book invites readers to discover how saints guide us throughout our earthly journeys and how they help each of us find holiness in our own lives. Featuring a new chapter from Martin, this tenth-anniversary edition of the best-selling memoir updates readers about his life over the past ten years. In that time, he has been a New York Times best-selling author, official chaplain of The Colbert Report, and a welcome presence in the media whenever there’s a breaking Catholic news story. But he has always remained recognizably himself. John L. Allen, Jr., the acclaimed Catholic journalist, contributes a foreword that shows how Martin has become one of the wisest and most insightful voices of this era. “An outstanding and often hilarious memoir.” —Publishers Weekly “One of the best spiritual memoirs in years.” —Robert Ellsberg “Remarkably engaging.” —U.S. Catholic One of Publishers Weekly’s Best Books of the Year Winner of the Christopher Award Winner of the Catholic Press Association Book Award
