Sinossi

Mormon Classics is a compelling anthology that weaves together an array of transformative writings, reflective of the spiritual and theological foundations of the Latter-day Saint movement. This collection captures the profound diversity in literary styles, from the doctrinal expositions to the evocative hymns and reflective narratives that continue to resonate within Mormon culture. It brings forth a profound dialogue, with standout pieces exploring not only the tenets of faith but also the intricate balance between revealed knowledge and personal insight, making it an essential resource for both the devout and the curious. The collection features an enriched tapestry of voices, each contributing uniquely to the overarching theology and cultural narrative of Mormonism. The authors—from Joseph Smith Jr.'s foundational teachings to Eliza R. Snow's inspired verses—offer a cross-section of the religious fervor, intellectual inquiry, and personal conviction that define this religious tradition. This anthology stands as a testament to the influence of key historical figures and the evolving interpretation and understanding of Mormon doctrine, deeply embedded in cultural and historical contexts. For both scholars and enthusiasts, Mormon Classics presents a distinct opportunity to engage with the varied perspectives that have shaped Mormon theology and culture. It offers a multidimensional insight into a faith that continues to grow and impact communities worldwide. Readers are invited to explore this volume not merely as a collection of texts but as an ongoing conversation that bridges past ideologies with contemporary faith challenges, providing an indispensable lens through which to examine the complexities of belief, identity, and community in Mormonism."}

    Radio Treason - The Trials of...

    Rebecca West, Katie Roiphe

    The gripping courtroom drama of a Brooklyn-born Englishman who became the voice of Nazi Germany, by "one of the most brilliant and erudite journalists of the century" (The New York Times). 
     
     
     
    In 1945, the New Yorker commissioned star reporter Rebecca West to cover the London trial of William Joyce, who stood accused by the British government of aiding the Third Reich. Joyce was alleged to have hosted a radio program, Germany Calling, devoted to Nazi propaganda and calls for a British surrender. 
     
     
     
    The legal case against Joyce (known as "Lord Haw-Haw" for his supposedly posh accent) proved to be tenuous and full of uncertainties. Yet each new piece of evidence added to West's timeless portrait of a social reject who turned to the far right, who rose through the ranks without ever being liked, and who sought validation through a set of shared hatreds—of elites, of communists, and especially of Jews. 
     
     
     
    As a work of psychological suspense, Rebecca West's Radio Treason anticipates Truman Capote, Janet Malcolm, and Joan Didion at their best. As a study in political extremism, as Katie Roiphe writes in her foreword, "It is as if Lord Haw-Haw has been transported from her time into ours."

    In the Shadow of Enlightenment is the gripping story of Carroll’s childhood inside the Osho Rajneesh cult—one of the most controversial spiritual movements of the 20th century. While in the commune, Sarito was submerged in a world where devotion and freedom clashed with manipulation, sexual misconduct, and neglect. This was the life she knew until the movement collapsed amid scandal and criminal charges in 1985, when sixteen-year-old Sarito was thrust into a society she knew little about. 
    Now, decades later, after battling shame, fear, and self-doubt, Sarito breaks her silence to expose the abuse, exploitation, and disillusionment she endured in the Rajneesh community. She stands up against this formidable spiritual institution that promised liberation while concealing dark secrets behind its facade of love and joy. With raw honesty and heart-wrenching clarity, she recounts her fight to reclaim her identity, confront the community’s betrayal, and heal on her own terms. It is a powerful story of survival, resilience, courage, and hard-won freedom. 
    In the Shadow of Enlightenment is a profoundly moving exposé about the hidden dangers lurking behind charismatic leaders and spiritual movements. It will inspire and challenge you to question where you place your trust.

    When he served in Congress, political commentator Joe Scarborough hung a portrait of Harry Truman in his office. This often surprised people, as Truman had left the White House with a low level of popular support. On top of that, Joe was a Republican and Truman a Democrat. But Joe identified most of all as a conservative, especially on foreign policy. Joe was a Cold War hawk, and Truman was the first Cold Warrior. In Saving Freedom (2020), Joe reveals how Truman took the first crucial steps in defending democracy against the threat of the Soviet Union. He explains how the Truman Doctrine came to be, how it was implemented, and its success in transforming the United States from a largely isolationist state to the primary fighter for freedom and peace in the world.

    The grand inquisitor of The Weakest Link bares all in this humor-laced memoir.The first woman in nearly half a century to host a prime-time game show and the highest-paid female journalist in British history, Anne Robinson warranted fan mail, death threats, unqualified admiration, and unabashed hatred. From pioneering journalist to overnight phenomenon, Robinson shares the events of her formative upbringing by a sensitive father and a driven, hardworking mother who was "part magic, part monster." With unreserved pride she reveals the headline-making battles to carve out her own career as a journalist, a controversial consumer reporter, and a BBC anchor— a calling that took its toll on a troubled marriage and a highly publicized custody battle. And with biting humor, Anne explores how she achieved a peak level of infamy— namely her autocratic style, withering glances, and stinging barbs— landing her in the unique position of being both the most popular and unpopular television personality in history.
