  CS Lewis: The Life and Legacy of...

  C.S. Lewis had an interesting and turbulent life, during which he maintained a prominent academic career and wrote fictional books that, to this day, captivate readers all over the world, regardless of their age and nationality. To understand his life, it must be kept in mind that he was a communicator at heart. He lectured at Oxford, wrote essays for wartime radio, and crafted fairy tales imbued with moral and theological symbolism. No matter which of these tasks he had at hand, his goal was always the same: convey complex ideas in an accessible manner, defend the rationality of his faith, and, most importantly, tell stories. As a result, the stories Lewis told would attempt to reveal many of the deeper truths about the human condition and experience, some of them referencing his own.  
  Though Lewis wrote his fantasy stories and theological books nearly a century ago, he is still lauded as one of the most celebrated British authors of the 20th century, and it would be an understatement merely to say that he has left a lasting impact on generations of readers. The Chronicles of Narnia have sold over 100 million copies and been translated into more than 40 languages, while his apologetic books are still widely read by believers and skeptics alike. Many popular writers in the 21st century, such as Philip Pullman (despite strong disagreements), Neil Gaiman, and J.K. Rowling have all acknowledged Lewis’ role in shaping modern fantasy. At the same time, pastors, professors, and public thinkers still quote him as being one of the clearest voices bridging intellect and faith, referring to his theological works in a variety of ways.

  Warren Spahn - A Biography of...

  To say Spahn lived a storied life is an understatement. 
   
  In Warren Spahn, author Lew Freedman tells the story of this incredible lefty. Known for his supremely high leg kick, Spahn became one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history. However, the road wasn’t as easy as it would seem. 
   
  Struggling in his major-league debut at age twenty, manager Casey Stengel demoted the young left. It would be four years before Spahn would return to the diamond, as he received a calling of a different kind—one from his country. 
   
  Enlisting in the Army, Spahn would serve with distinction, seeing action in the Battle of the Bulge and the Ludendorff Bridge, and was awarded a battlefield commission, along with a Purple Heart. 
   
  Upon his return to the game, he would take the league by storm. Spahn dominated for over two decades, spending twenty years with the Braves (both Boston and Milwaukee), as well as a season with the New York Mets and San Francisco Giants. Pitching into his mid-forties, he would throw two no-hitters at the advanced ages of thirty-nine and forty. 
   
  From his early days in Buffalo and young career, through his time and the military and all the way to the 1948 Braves and “Spahn and Sain and Pray for Rain,” author Lew Freedman leaves no stone unturned in sharing the incredible life of this pitching icon, who is still considered the greatest left-handed pitcher to ever play the game.

  May Cause Side Effects

  An unforgettable memoir about the turmoil of antidepressant withdrawal and the work it takes to unravel the stories we tell ourselves to rationalize our suffering. Brooke Siem was among the first generation of minors to be prescribed antidepressants. Initially diagnosed and treated in the wake of her father’s sudden death, this psychiatric intervention sent a message that something was pathologically wrong with her and that the only “fix” was medication. As a teenager, she stepped into the hazy world of antidepressants just at the time when she was forming the foundation of her identity. For the following fifteen years, every situation she faced was seen through the lens of brokenness. A decade and a half later, still on the same cocktail of drugs, Brooke found herself hanging halfway out her Manhattan high-rise window, calculating the time it would take to hit the ground. As she looked for breaks in the pedestrian traffic patterns, a thought dawned on her: “I’ve spent half my life—and my entire adult life—on antidepressants. Who might I be without them?” Unfurled against a global backdrop, May Cause Side Effects is the gripping story of what happened when, after fifteen years and 32,760 pills, Brooke was faced with a profound choice that plunged her into a year of excruciating antidepressant withdrawal and forced her to rebuild her entire life. An illuminating memoir for those who take, prescribe, or are considering psychiatric drugs, May Cause Side Effects is an honest reminder that the road to true happiness is not mapped on a prescription pad. Instead, Brooke’s story reveals the messy reality of how healing begins at the bottomless depth of our suffering, in the deep self-work that pushes us to the edges of who we are.
