Sinopsis

The following book is a collection of letter-based correspondence between Ewelina Rzewuska and Honoré de Balzac before their marriage. She married landowner Wacław Hański when she was a teenager. Hański, who was about 20 years her senior, suffered from depression. In the late 1820s, Hańska began reading Balzac's novels, and in 1832, she sent him an anonymous letter. This began a decades-long correspondence in which Hańska and Balzac expressed a deep mutual affection—which is collated in this publication.

    Summary, Analysis, and Review of Lysa TerKeurst's Uninvited PLEASE NOTE: This is a key takeaways and analysis of the book and NOT the original book. Start Publishing Notes' Summary, Analysis, and Review of Lysa TerKeurst's Uninvited: Living Loved When You Feel Less Than, Left Out, and Lonely includes a summary of the book, a review, analysis & key takeaways, and a detailed About the Author section. PREVIEW: Uninvited: Living Loved When You Feel Less Than, Left Out, and Lonely is an inspirational Christian book. Author Lysa TerKeurst discusses her own experiences with rejection, and urges readers to turn to faith for comfort and love. Rejection from others in the present uncovers wounds in the past. Rejection by others intertwines with self-rejection. These messages of rejection and self-rejection become self-fulfilling; when you internalize rejection, you damage your own ability to interact honestly, openly, and generously with others and with God.

    Anthony Alioto was diagnosed with end stage renal disease in 1993 and was forced to go on dialysis for several years before receiving a successful kidney transplant in 2000.In The Ninefold Path, he invites readers to join him on a harrowing personal journey through a labyrinth of tests, “what can I expect” meetings with medical staff, surgeries, and near-death experiences.  He spares no detail in his desire to provide a guide for others living with a chronic disease – and their families and friends – on how to navigate the oftentimes rough waters of modern medicine.The Ninefold Path is for all of those wearily traveling through chronic illnesses and for those by their sides wondering what to do, it is a celebration of the extraordinary individuals in medicine who relieve the suffering of strangers each and every day. In cataloging detail, there is inspiration, plus a call to compassion and serenity.A Note to the Reader from The Ninefold Path:“The reader can expect to encounter a very personal and human account of chronic illness, sometimes painful, sometimes hilarious, and then at times simply absurd – but, hopefully, also moving.  One need not search for profound insights, recipes, therapy, or sage advice.  It is my hope that you will come away with a feeling, a sense of being there, maybe a kind of liberation from the ‘merely personal’ as Einstein phrased it, and a new appreciation for what others endure daily.  Even in the midst of suffering physical pain and mental anguish, a person may yet gain the freedom to live a life of celebration, joy, compassion, and serenity. Zen Master Kyong Ho once said, ‘Don’t hope for life without problems.  An easy life results in a judgmental and lazy mind.’”

    In the early 1870s, local children begin disappearing from the working-class neighborhoods of Boston. Several return home bloody and bruised after being tortured, while others never come back.With the city on edge, authorities believe the abductions are the handiwork of a psychopath, until they discover that their killer-fourteen-year-old Jesse Pomeroy-is barely older than his victims. The criminal investigation that follows sparks a debate among the world's most revered medical minds and will have a decades-long impact on the judicial system and medical consciousness.The Wilderness of Ruin is a riveting tale of gruesome murder and depravity. At its heart is a great American city divided by class-a chasm that widens in the aftermath of the Great Fire of 1872. Roseanne Montillo brings Gilded Age Boston to glorious life-from the genteel cobblestone streets of Beacon Hill to the squalid, overcrowded tenements of Southie.
