Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A true story of life after death by a skeptical corporate lawyer. He tells about the many surprising and ingenious signs that came to him and several others following the death of his wife. Signs that make their divine source explicit. Signs so moving and convincing that his faith is restored, his life transformed. Significantly, a prominent and historic New England church plays a major role, as do three senior ministers. The first sign appears in the sanctuary with a minister as a co-witness. Millions of Americans have received comforting after-death contacts, but are unsure how such experiences fit into traditional religious beliefs. In an important first, such contacts coming directly and spontaneously from deceased loved ones are shown to have a biblical basis and to fulfill biblical promises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates the form of love letters and erotic letters in Greek and Latin up to the 7th Century CE, encompassing both literary and documentary letters (the latter inscribed and on papyrus), and prose and poetry. The potential for, and utility of treating this large and diverse corpus as a ‘genre’ is examined. To this end, approaches from ancient literary criticism and modern theory of genre are made; mutual influences between the documentary and the literary form are sought; and origins in proto-epistolary poetic texts are examined. In order to examine the boundaries of a form, limit cases, which might have less claim to the label ‘love letter’, are compared with more clear-cut examples. A series of case studies focuses on individual letters and letter-collections. Some case studies situate their subjects within the history and literary evolution of the love letter, using both intertextuality and comparative approaches; others placing them in their cultural and historical contexts, particularly uncovering the contribution of epistolarity to erotic discourse, and to the history of sexuality and gender in diverse eras and locations within Classical to Late Antiquity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shahrzad Mirgholikhan was born in an Iran teetering on the brink of great change. In 1979 a popular uprising toppled the Shah of Iran. Jubilation followed, but it soon became clear that although Iran was changing for good, that change might not be the kind many wanted. Ayatollah Rouholla Khomeini managed to establish himself as the leader of the revolution and took the reins of power. His vision was an Islamic Republic and to achieve that, he brought in mandatory hijab and other stringent laws. In the fever and confusion of the revolution many hasty extrajudicial executions happened and activists, artists and even comedians left Iran in droves to avoid the same fate. Then came the war. Eight years of bloodshed, defending Iran’s soil against Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. Shahrzad’s childhood was marred by the minggling wails of mourning mothers and sirens as she ran from classroom to bomb shelter. At the tender age of eighteen her parents managed to cajole their vivacious daughter into marriage, hoping matrimony tempers her strong-willed nature. However her husband and his family harbor a dark secret that inevitably rips them apart. Barely out of her twenties Shahrzad becomes a divorcee with two children. Young and full of dreams she marries again, but the man she falls for turns out to be a member of the regime's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps who tries to use her to smuggle night vision goggles into Iran. Shahrzad ends up in prison in the United States where she spends 5 years fighting for survival. Her fortitude and faith are tested to the limit, but her devotion to her twins Melika and Melina, her incredible sense of humor and ability to laugh in the face of adversity are what pull Shahrzad through in the end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry James's Style of Retrospect traces James's engagement with the writing of the recent past across the last twenty-five years of his life and examines the thoroughgoing change his style underwent in this last phase of his career, as his focus turned from the observation of contemporary manners to biographical commemoration and autobiographical reminiscence, and the balance of his output gradually shifted from fiction to non-fiction. The 'late personal writings' of the book's subtitle are works of retrospective non-fiction. They are a varied group, representing a broad array of genres and occasions: commemorative essays and obituary tributes, textual revisions and accounts of revisiting familiar places, cultural and literary criticism, biography and autobiography, and family memoir. Oliver Herford proposes that we read the late personal writings as a coherent sequence, bound together by a close texture of cross-references and allusive echoes, and united by James's newly discovered sense for the literary possibilities of non-fiction. Closely analyzing the style of these writings, this study offers a boldly revisionist account of the way style itself challenges and preoccupies the very late James. A linked series of innovative close readings takes the major works of this period in sequence, addressing a key point of style in each: particular attention is paid to procedures of reference (to the historical past, to real persons and places and objects), a dimension of style often neglected and sometimes actively slighted in analyses of James's late work. Henry James's Style of Retrospect asks what it means for so distinguished a novelist to alter the foundations of his written manner so strikingly in late life, and shows how we may begin to reconfigure our understanding of late Jamesian aesthetics accordingly.

Book excerpt: Love and the Working Class is a unique look at the emotions of hard-living, racially diverse nineteenth-century Americans who were often on the cusp of literacy. Wrongly assumed to be inarticulate on paper, these laboring folk highly valued letters and, however difficult it was, wrote to stay connected to those they loved.
