Beschreibung

In "The Voyage of the Rattletrap," Hayden Carruth embarks on a lyrical journey that deftly weaves together themes of loss, nostalgia, and the tumultuous nature of human relationships. The narrative style is marked by Carruth's signature eloquence, characterized by rich imagery and a rhythmic cadence that evokes the ebb and flow of memory. Set against the backdrop of an increasingly fragmented world, the collection reflects the poet's deep engagement with both personal and collective histories, exploring the metaphoric 'rattletrap' as a symbol of resilience and the quest for meaning amidst chaos. Carruth, an acclaimed American poet and essayist, drew upon his own experiences of dislocation, both geographical and emotional, throughout his life. His upbringing in rural Vermont and later years spent in urban landscapes infused his work with a tangible sense of place and identity. The shadows of personal strife, including mental health struggles and the loss of loved ones, permeate the text, revealing a universal quest for connection and understanding that resonates deeply with readers facing similar predicaments. "The Voyage of the Rattletrap" is a thought-provoking read that is highly recommended for those drawn to introspective poetry that delves into the complexities of the human condition. Carruth's masterful use of language invites readers to reflect on their own journeys, making this work not merely a collection of poems, but a transformative experience that lingers long after the final page.

    This sensitive and often humorous book tells the story of an adolescent boy who begins to find himself after the people he has always depended on let him down. Alone. That’s how thirteen-year-old Justin feels these days. His older brother Duane has left home, enlisting in the Army, and his father has walked out, maybe for good this time. His mom is too depressed to get out of bed, much less pay the bills and keep food in the refrigerator. And if that’s not enough, his best buddy Ben has a new girlfriend and no longer has time to hang out. There’s not much left for Justin to do but to put his brain in neutral and slide into the state he calls “the Big Nothing.” But slowly Justin discovers he has more resources than he thinks. With the help of his classmate Jemmie and her grandmother, Nana Grace, he learns that underneath all the noisy confusion in his brain lies a talent for music. As he spends time with Jemmie, he begins to understand how simple notes make complex music, and how simple feelings can turn into deep emotions. Award-winning author Adrian Fogelin once again offers readers an emotionally charged story featuring a sympathetic adolescent trying to make sense of the people and world around him.

    Dramatically converted on the stormy seas, a slave-trader-turned-abolitionist penned the best-loved hymn of the Christian faith. A church father was arrested and martyred for teaching the truth about Christ's incarnation. Captured by pirates and shipped off to Ireland, a priest baptized thousands of pagans, from paupers to princes. Now who ever said church history was boring?
    The Church History ABCs is a fun way for kids to learn about great figures in Christian history. Twenty-six heroes of the faith march through the alphabet, boldly telling their stories in language children can understand. This wide range of characters—men and women from across the centuries, from all over the globe—reflects the breadth of church history and reminds children that these great figures of the past were living, breathing people who lived and died for the glory of God.

    A cinematic tale of passion, war, loyalty, betrayal, and retribution “These events I relate are the living seeds, and they will bear bloody fruit, I promise.” So says Ulysses, King of Ithaca, as he recounts the origins of the Trojan War. Renowned Greek mythologist Bernard Evslin masterfully depicts the ten-year war: its beginnings rooted in discord among the gods; the seduction of the famed beauty Helen of Troy; and the spectacular development of the Trojan Horse, Ulysses’ cunning ploy to win the war. Evslin brings to life the dramatic twists and turns of this classic tale of human folly, mortal heroism, and the brutality and brilliance that have come down through the ages.
