Sinossi

In "The Kingdom of God is Within You," Leo Tolstoy articulates a profound exploration of faith, spirituality, and the moral life, merging philosophical musings with a poignant critique of institutional religion. Written during a period of intense personal and spiritual transformation, this work is characterized by Tolstoy's accessible prose and contemplative tone, encouraging a direct relationship with the divine. Interweaving personal anecdotes and scriptural reflections, the narrative challenges traditional dogmas and advocates for a life led by love, compassion, and non-violence, crucial themes that resonate through his broader literary oeuvre. Tolstoy, a titan of Russian literature, experienced a profound spiritual awakening in the late 19th century, a shift that prompted him to reevaluate the purpose of existence and the role of faith in human life. His grappling with existential questions and moral dilemmas, alongside a critique of societal injustices, embeds this text in the context of his broader life philosophy. Tolstoy's commitment to pacifism and social justice informed his views, leading him to advocate for a Christianity rooted in ethical behavior rather than ritualistic observance. Readers seeking a deeper understanding of spirituality and ethics will find "The Kingdom of God is Within You" invaluable. Tolstoy's introspective insights illuminate the path to personal and societal transformation, making this book a timeless call to recognize the divine within ourselves and to embrace the principles of love and humanity.

    There is nothing conventional about the life and religious journey of Grace Costin. After a family tragedy caused her to reject God, she began on the long path back to faith through pioneering social work, a solo journey across the United States and a brief interlude as one of the first women police officers. Following a fleeting ministry as Sister Teresa in the Order of St Anne, she met the charismatic priest Bernard Walke, with whom she formed a loving but combative working partnership before experiencing a calling to create a religious Order unlike any that had existed before. Her quest took her from remote parishes in Cornwall to the slums of Paisley, an inner-city parish in 1930s London and the Isle of Wight until finally she found what she was searching for in the personal ads of the Daily Telegraph—a “Typical Thatched Devon farmhouse”.
    
     
    And so in the middle of the Second World War, aged 54 with a heart condition and no money, she set out to transform the run-down house in a remote corner of Devon into the Community she had dreamed of for so long. With the help of a series of remarkable women she had attracted along the way, she created Posbury St Francis—a community, not a convent, with sisters, not nuns, and a Mother, but not a Mother Superior.
    
     
    Mother of Invention is the story of how a woman, the daughter of a bigamous marriage, with no money, connections or academic background, founded her own religious Order which, at its height, was visited by over 2,000 people a year.

But when he’s called out on the cusp of winter to track down and rescue a team of lost botanists in the wilds of Alaska, he can’t say no. It doesn’t matter that every last instinct tells him he won’t get the team out before winter. The scientists on the expedition are someone’s father and brother. Mikhail knows what it’s like to lose both of those, and he’d never wish that loss on another person.

    But people on the team are carrying secrets, and Mikhail soon isn’t sure what holds the most danger, the encroaching Alaskan winter, the secrets between the members, or lowering the walls he’s built around his heart. Can love survive when survival itself is uncertain?
