Summary

In "Prose Fancies," Richard Le Gallienne presents a dazzling collection of essays that traverse the realms of philosophy, nature, and personal reflection. The literary style is characterized by its lyrical prose and a delicate blend of romanticism and modernism, echoing the grandeur of the Pre-Raphaelites while embracing a contemporary sensibility. Le Gallienne's keen observations of the world around him reveal a profound understanding of the human experience, often interspersing his musings with vivid imagery and emotive language. This work is emblematic of the late 19th-century literary landscape, where writers began to explore the intricacies of individual thought and sentiment in a rapidly changing society. Richard Le Gallienne, an English poet and essayist, was deeply influenced by the Symbolist movement and his early experiences in literature and art. His encounters with figures like Oscar Wilde and his interest in nature and spirituality shaped his voice, lending authenticity and depth to his reflections. The diverse inspirations behind his work, including a love for the natural world and an appreciation for the ephemeral beauty of life, resonate throughout "Prose Fancies," making it a personal and philosophical journey. This collection is a must-read for those who seek solace in the written word and an exploration of the more profound aspects of existence. Le Gallienne's gentle yet insightful prose invites readers to pause, reflect, and find beauty in the ordinary. Ideal for lovers of lyrical essays and contemplative literature, "Prose Fancies" enriches the reader's appreciation for both language and the transient nature of life.

    In this powerful and inspiring memoir, a Pakistani immigrant shares his story of finding new freedoms and a new faith in America. 
    It’s easy to talk about freedom. But unless someone has lived in a world that suffocates freedom, it’s difficult to appreciate the liberty found in America. This is the true story of a Pakistani Muslim who immigrates to the United States for college and discovers five transformational freedoms along the way: the freedom to fail and start over, to love, to choose one’s faith, to be an entrepreneur, and to self-govern. 
    Contrasting these precious freedoms with the life he lived in Pakistan, Ali’s story reveals that God is the true source of liberty as He works in people’s lives to bring about redemption. A call to value and preserve American freedoms, Beyond the Golden Door is also an invitation for readers to consider ultimate freedom in Jesus Christ.
