Graham M. Dean

Beschreibung

In "Daring Wings," Graham M. Dean orchestrates a compelling narrative that delves into the intricate interplay between ambition and human potential. Set against the backdrop of a world grappling with both technological advances and ethical dilemmas, Dean's prose is marked by a keen lyrical quality, inviting readers into a vivid exploration of risk, innovation, and the perils of hubris. The thematic concerns echo the literary tradition rooted in speculative fiction, as Dean weaves a tapestry of character-driven storytelling imbued with philosophical undertones, urging reflection on the societal impact of personal choices. Graham M. Dean, a scholar of philosophy and literature, draws from his extensive background in exploring human motivations and ethical frameworks. His academic pursuits have equipped him with a unique lens through which he examines the consequences of ambition, making him well suited to create a narrative that not only entertains but also provokes critical thought on moral responsibilities in a rapidly changing world. Dean's previous works reflect his fascination with the dichotomy between aspiration and consequence, making "Daring Wings" a culmination of his literary inquiries. This book is highly recommended for readers who appreciate thought-provoking speculative fiction that challenges the boundaries of human experience. Dean'Äôs skillful integration of literary artistry and philosophical insight makes "Daring Wings" not just a story, but an intellectual journey that resonates with contemporary themes of responsibility and growth. Ideal for both enthusiasts of fiction and those contemplating the broader implications of human ambition, this novel promises to leave an indelible mark on its audience.

Diary of an Old Soul - Annotated...

George MacDonald

"Be thou the well by which I lie and rest;

Be thou my tree of life, my garden ground;

Be thou my home, my fire, my chamber blest,

My book of wisdom, loved of all the best;

Oh, be my friend, each day still newer found,

As the eternal days and nights go round!

Nay, nay—thou art my God, in whom all loves are bound!"
In 1880, the prolific author George MacDonald self-published a long poem in book form as a gift for his friends. He called it, in full, A Book of Strife in the Form of the Diary of an Old Soul. It contained a new seven-line stanza for each day of the calendar year, written as prayers expressing MacDonald's longings, struggles, and joys in everyday life.
The Diary was originally printed with a blank page facing every page of poetry so that readers could supplement MacDonald's diary with their own. This feature in particular, along with the spiritual wisdom and literary artistry of the text itself, was beloved by C. S. Lewis, who gave a copy of the book to his future wife, Joy Davidman, as a Christmas gift in 1952.
Now in this deluxe edition, MacDonald's classic devotional resource is again available with the blank pages he envisioned alongside the complete text. With a new introduction and explanatory notes by historian Timothy Larsen, the beloved writer's prayers find new life for enthusiasts and first-time readers alike.

- Complete text of MacDonald's classic work—one poem for each day of the year
- Thoughtful layout with a blank page for journaling opposite each poem
- Introduction and annotations by historian Timothy Larsen
- Deluxe features including cloth binding and bookmark ribbon

Annabel Lee

Edgar Allan Poe

Annabel Lee is the last complete poem by Edgar Allan Poe. Like many of Poe's poems, it explores the theme of the death of a beautiful woman. 
The narrator, who fell in love with Annabel Lee when they were young, has a love for her so strong that even angels are jealous. He retains his love for her even after her death. 
There has been debate over who - if anyone - was the inspiration for Annabel Lee. Though many women have been suggested, Poe's wife Virginia Eliza Clemm Poe is one of the more credible candidates.
