This book was released on 2010-01-18. The Unnamed available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The Unnamed is a dazzling novel about a marriage, family, and the unseen forces of nature and desire that seem to threaten them both. He was going to lose the house and everything in it. The rare pleasure of a bath, the copper pots hanging above the kitchen island, his family-again he would lose his family. He stood inside the house and took stock. Everything in it had been taken for granted. How had that happened again? He had promised himself not to take anything for granted and now he couldn't recall the moment that promise had given way to the everyday. Tim Farnsworth is a handsome, healthy man, aging with the grace of a matinee idol. His wife Jane still loves him, and for all its quiet trials, their marriage is still stronger than most. Despite long hours at the office, he remains passionate about his work, and his partnership at a prestigious Manhattan law firm means that the work he does is important. And, even as his daughter Becka retreats behind her guitar, her dreadlocks and her puppy fat, he offers her every one of a father's honest lies about her being the most beautiful girl in the world. He loves his wife, his family, his work, his home. He loves his kitchen. And then one day he stands up and walks out. And keeps walking. The Unnamed is a heartbreaking story of a life taken for granted -- and what happens when that life is abruptly and irrevocably taken away.

Even fewer are safe from the clans of men, who, driven by fear, seek to control those remaining"--Back cover.

This book was released on 2012-06-18. The Unnamed available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Poetry that understands why so many today simply don't like poetry. This is poetry for the rest of us. These roses might not be red, yet here are sown the blossoms of disaccord, and while the violets grown here betray even the blues of yesteryore, we'll find weakness betrayed and may even discover love to be shorn and cultivated for the benefit of all. With razor tenacity and foreboding, yet whimsical jest, this has something to offend everyone. An epic tale about everything and nothing at all. It's an offer to come lie in peaceful glade and rage in blood-thirsty game, to fornicate within the realms forbidden and love as the divinity only yourself can create.

Download and read online ebook Women in Scripture write by Carol Meyers. This book was released on 2000-03-30. Women in Scripture available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. “This splendid reference describes every woman in Jewish and Christian scripture . . . monumental” (Library Journal). In recent decades, many biblical scholars have studied the holy text with a new focus on gender. Women in Scripture is a groundbreaking work that provides Jews, Christians, or anyone fascinated by a body of literature that has exerted a singular influence on Western civilization a thorough look at every woman and group of women mentioned in the Bible, whether named or unnamed, well known or heretofore not known at all. They are remarkably varied—from prophets to prostitutes, military heroines to musicians, deacons to dancers, widows to wet nurses, rulers to slaves. There are familiar faces, such as Eve, Judith, and Mary, seen anew with the full benefit of the most up-to-date results of biblical scholarship. But the most innovative aspect of this book is the section devoted to the many females who in the scriptures do not even have names. Combining rigorous research with engaging prose, these articles on women in the Hebrew Bible, the Apocryphal/Deuterocanonical Books, and the New Testament will inform, delight, and challenge readers interested in the Bible, scholars and laypeople alike. Together, these collected histories create a volume that takes the study of women in the Bible to a new level.
