Dostoevsky

André Gide

Sinopse

In Dostoevsky, André Gide offers not a conventional biography but a penetrating critical meditation on the Russian novelist's art, psychology, and spiritual preoccupations. Gide examines the moral ambiguity, polyphonic characterization, and intense inward drama that define Dostoevsky's fiction, showing how novels such as The Brothers Karamazov and Crime and Punishment reshaped the modern psychological novel. Written with the clarity and suggestiveness of a major creative writer reflecting on another, the book belongs to the great European tradition of literary criticism in which interpretation becomes a form of intellectual self-discovery. Gide, one of the central figures of modern French literature and later a Nobel laureate, was uniquely equipped to write this study. His own fiction and essays repeatedly explored freedom, conscience, desire, and the divided self—themes that drew him naturally to Dostoevsky. Deeply engaged with questions of authenticity and moral conflict, Gide recognized in the Russian master a writer who exposed the unstable depths of human motive more radically than almost anyone before him. This book is especially recommended to readers interested in modernism, comparative literature, and the history of the novel. Gide's reading is elegant, incisive, and illuminating, making Dostoevsky an excellent companion both to Dostoevsky's fiction and to broader reflection on the moral and psychological possibilities of literature.

The Third Secret of Fatima

Holly von Bonin

Imagine a tiny Portuguese village in 1917, where three young shepherd children encounter a divine apparition that shakes the world. But beneath the miracles lies a labyrinth of secrets: a sealed envelope hidden in the Vatican, a seer silenced and possibly replaced, whispers of Freemason conspiracies, and a truth so explosive it was buried for decades. Was the Third Secret a warning of global catastrophe, a prophecy of the Church's downfall, or something even darker?   (This audiobook features AI-generated narration. )

When Wisdom Arrives - From...

Rosalyn Rourke

If thoughts and feelings were truth, they would be called facts. In the pages of this fable and companion memoir, we learn about truth and the simple way we can transcend the lie of unworthiness. Imagined unworthiness shows up as a tyranny of thoughts and feelings that cause psychological suffering. Eleven-year-old Gem struggles with looping thoughts and feelings of self-hate because of her body weight. She believes she is unworthy of love. A wise woman comes into young Gem's life and demonstrates that her looping, hurtful, repetitive thoughts are untrue. When Gem moves her attention away from her habitual looping patterns, she finds her true 'I,' a deeper part of herself that is free. The true 'I' is not tied to thoughts and feelings, or the past or future. It is a presence that is available in each person. Rosalyn Rourke has been all three characters in the fable and all three in the memoir companion: the judgmental mother, the hurt daughter, and the wise woman. Even with a successful, decades-long psychotherapy practice and credentials as an eating disorder expert and trauma specialist, Rosalyn struggled with worry and judgment about her daughter, Melissa's, weight. The same protocol Gem discovers in the fable helped Rosalyn transcend compulsive worry and judgment about Melissa's weight and later helped her transmute grief after Melissa's unexpected death. When Wisdom Arrives in our lives, we discover how imagined unworthiness can transform into the knowledge of what we are in truth.

Bill Weir

Award-winning journalist Bill Weir confronts the biggest threats to life as we know it and explores ideas for building a more promising future. 
 
Bill Weir has spent decades telling the stories of unique people, places, cultures, and creatures on the brink of change. As the first Chief Climate Correspondent in network news, he is immersed in the latest scientific warnings and breakthroughs while often on the frontlines of disasters, natural and manmade. 
 
After the birth of his son in April 2020, Bill began distilling these experiences into a series of Earth Day letters to his boy, weaving together worry and wonder into a poignant reminder that a better future can still be written. Life as We Know It (Can Be) digs into fascinating corners of history, psychology, technology, and Bill’s own biography to connect the lessons he’s collected from the happiest, healthiest, and most resilient societies. From the sun-powered town that kept its lights on in a hurricane to the Antarctic nests of the one penguin species thriving amid climate change, Bill takes readers around the world to collect dozens of practical ideas to help build a more resilient future.  
 
Life as We Know It (Can Be) is a celebration of the wonders of our planet, a meditation on the human wants and needs that drive it out of balance, and an inspiration for communities to galvanize around nature and each other as the very best way to brace for what’s next.

It’s moving, funny, frank, well-researched, beautifully written, and looks at climate change in a way I’ve never seen before.”—Anderson Cooper, CNN anchor, 60 Minutes correspondent, and New York Times–bestselling author
