It is not unusual for a father to write to his son. However, these beautifully written letters, spanning over 20 years, are far from usual, as the author began writing them a week after his 8-year-old son’s untimely death… Dear Andrew is extremely simple in its focus, and, at the same time, extremely complex in the range of life issues and feelings that it touches upon. While searingly personal in its content, it is, nevertheless, universal in its meanings. Inspiring and profoundly hopeful, Dear Andrew is an eloquent tale of deep feeling, of growth, of a father’s unconditional love, and of a journey to peace. So many books are only for those who have “lived it”. This book is about healing in its broadest sense. Dear Andrew lights a candle for those who have experienced any kind of loss, and is a moving experience for anyone who reads it.Show book

An expert historian on Mary, Queen of Scots draws on hundreds of her encrypted letters to paint a vivid portrait of one of history's most compelling figures. For almost two decades before her execution at Fotheringhay Castle in 1587, Mary, Queen of Scots was a prisoner. From her chambers, she wrote countless letters, many encrypted using complex ciphers to prevent her communications from being intercepted. In this way, she used language to exert her will and her influence, even while incarcerated. More than four hundred years after Mary's death, the discovery of further encoded letters has led to renewed interest in the breadth of her correspondence while in captivity. In Captive Queen: The Decrypted History of Mary, Queen of Scots, Jade Scott draws on hundreds of these ground-breaking letters to create a vivid picture of one of history's most fascinating personalities. She interprets Mary's complex relationships with friends and enemies alike throughout the years of her imprisonment, illuminating Mary's strategic vision while bringing her captivity to life like never before.Show book
In this inspiring book of divine discovery, poet and seeker Arundhathi Subramaniam gives us a glimpse into the lives of four self-contained, unapologetic female spiritual travelers. “Among the finest pieces of spiritual truth-telling literature I have ever read … A book to savor and celebrate.”—Mirabai Starr, author of Wild Mercy and Ordinary Mysticism “As the pages turn, one feels a growing sense of shared humanity, even kinship, with these extraordinary practitioners of the sacred.”—Tim Parks, author of Teach Us to Sit Still: A Skeptic’s Search for Health and Healing In life, spiritual paths are often as unique as we are. Bringing together the voices of four women mystics walking very different spiritual paths, poet Arundhathi Subramaniam reveals the expansive potential of forging an intimate, personal connection with the divine. We'll meet these four travelers:Sri Annapurani Amma, who left the safety of home to follow the summons of a long-dead saint and chooses to live naked,Balarishi Vishwashirasini, a nada yoga teacher who became a guru as a child and admits she's missed out on a real childhood,Lata Mani, who discovered tantra after a major accident left her with a brain injury and today talks of how the spiritual life is deeply anchored in the wisdom of the body—not unlike the redwood trees of her adopted home, andMaa Karpoori, who needed to resist pressure to marry, and found her calling in a local yoga class and now radiates fierce independence and the contagious joy of living. Sensitive, insightful, and lyrical, Women Who Wear Only Themselves bathes us in the kind of mystery that feels deeply familiar and invites us to connect with whatever sparks our spiritual fire.Show book
