Sinopse

"Monteagle" is a work that bears the marks of nineteenth-century popular fiction, blending romance, moral tension, and social observation in a narrative likely shaped by the conventions of domestic and sentimental literature. The novel appears to center on character, feeling, and the pressures exerted by class, duty, and private desire, all rendered in a style attentive to emotional nuance and the ethical stakes of everyday life. In this respect, it belongs to a literary culture that valued fiction not merely as entertainment, but as a vehicle for moral reflection and social interpretation. The author, Pansy, remains elusive, and that obscurity itself is suggestive of the period in which many women published under pseudonyms or partial names. Such a choice may indicate both the constraints and possibilities afforded to female authorship in the Victorian literary marketplace. "Monteagle" can thus be read as emerging from a milieu in which women writers negotiated questions of authority, respectability, and readership while contributing decisively to the development of the English novel. This book will particularly reward readers interested in overlooked fiction, women's writing, and the textures of nineteenth-century narrative art. "Monteagle" deserves attention not only as a literary artifact of its age, but as a compelling example of how fiction can illuminate the emotional and social structures of its world.

    "The youthful-sounding Sarah Bierstock is an excellent choice to narrate this coming-of-age novel... Bierstock creates a likable character in Isabel, and listeners will want her to find her path--even if takes an affair with a professor to eliminate the bad options."- AudioFile An incisive, deeply resonant debut novel about a nonconsensual sexual encounter that propels one woman’s final semester at an elite New England college into controversy and chaos—and into an ill-advised affair with a married professor.It’s 1998 and Isabel Rosen, the only daughter of a Lower East Side appetizing store owner, has one semester left at Wilder College, a prestigious school in New Hampshire. Desperate to shed her working-class roots and still mourning the death of her mother four years earlier, Isabel has always felt like an outsider at Wilder but now, in her final semester, she believes she has found her place—until a nonconsensual sexual encounter with one of the only other Jewish students on campus leaves her reeling.Enter R. H. Connelly, a once-famous poet and Isabel’s writing professor, a man with secrets of his own. Connelly makes Isabel feel seen, beautiful, talented: the woman she longs to become. His belief in her ignites a belief in herself, and the two begin an affair that shakes the foundation of who Isabel thinks she is, for better and worse. As the lives of the adults around her slowly come apart, Isabel discovers that the line between youth and adulthood is less defined than she thought.A coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal, Daisy Alpert Florin's My Last Innocent Year is a timely and wise portrait of  a young woman learning to trust her voice and move toward independence while recognizing the beauty and grit of where she came from.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.

    LET GOD PERFORM THE MIRACULOUS IN YOUR LIFE  
    Does God still do miracles? It’s a question many ask when they read about the wonders God does in the Bible. In Signs and Secrets of the Messiah, Rabbi Jason Sobel seeks to answer this question by drawing on Jesus’ miracles in the Gospel of John, biblical culture, and ancient texts. He reveals how Jesus takes the ordinary and turns it into something extraordinary (turning water into wine), gives new life (healing the man at the Pool of Bethesda), and blesses you so you can bless others (multiplying the loaves and fish). God still does the miraculous . . . if we only open our eyes to see it.

    Renewing Christian Worldview - A...

    This brief but comprehensive introduction to Christian worldview helps readers understand the Christian faith as the substance of Spirit-filled living and as a knowledge tradition stemming from the global Pentecostal movement. 
     
    Using beauty, truth, and goodness as organizing principles, the authors delineate a Christian worldview by tracing each category historically, comparing and contrasting each with alternative Christian expressions, and constructing fresh takes on each as read through the lived Pentecostal experience. Unlike other worldview books, the authors' approach emphasizes beauty (relating to experience) rather than truth (involving knowledge acquisition); that difference in emphasis flows naturally from the Pentecostal perspective, which has traditionally centered the experience of the Spirit. 
     
    Pentecostal Christians will find this volume indispensable for thinking lucidly about their worldview from a renewal perspective.
