Download or read book Harrow written by Joy Williams and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her first novel since the Pulitzer Prize–nominated The Quick and the Dead, the legendary writer takes us into an uncertain landscape after an environmental apocalypse, a world in which only the man-made has value, but some still wish to salvage the authentic. "She practices ... camouflage, except that instead of adapting to its environment, Williams’s imagination, by remaining true to itself, reveals new colorations in the ecology around her.” —A.O. Scott, The New York Times Book Review Khristen is a teenager who, her mother believes, was marked by greatness as a baby when she died for a moment and then came back to life. After Khristen’s failing boarding school for gifted teens closes its doors, and she finds that her mother has disappeared, she ranges across the dead landscape and washes up at a “resort” on the shores of a mysterious, putrid lake the elderly residents there call “Big Girl.” In a rotting honeycomb of rooms, these old ones plot actions to punish corporations and people they consider culpable in the destruction of the final scraps of nature’s beauty. What will Khristen and Jeffrey, the precocious ten-year-old boy she meets there, learn from this “gabby seditious lot, in the worst of health but with kamikaze hearts, an army of the aged and ill, determined to refresh, through crackpot violence, a plundered earth”? Rivetingly strange and beautiful, and delivered with Williams’s searing, deadpan wit, Harrow is their intertwined tale of paradise lost and of their reasons—against all reasonableness—to try and recover something of it.

Download or read book Joy written by Vanessa Gracia Cruz and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Word of God reveals a simple truth that the enemy would never want us to know, and that truth is that God, the creator of joy, did not place joy out of our reach or make its presence in our lives dependent on our circumstances; instead, he benevolently created the nature of joy to be a product of our relationship with him. That is why you can see people living the most amazing seasons of their lives and still lack joy, while others experience the driest, most painful circumstances and somehow remain joyful. The latter have learned how to grow the fruit of joy in their lives through the help of the Holy Spirit. They don’t wait for their circumstances to change, and they don’t tell themselves they will be happier when they get what they are waiting for or that joy is unobtainable. They have learned to cultivate joy and, therefore, enjoy its sweetness during every season of their lives. This book focuses on truths from the Word of God that will teach you how to produce joy, regardless of your present circumstance.
