The Just-Right Shade of Grace Hmmm….Kissable Kiwi or Fire Engine Red? To hold your child tight like you desperately want to, or let him go like he needs? Every woman grapples with such life issues and intangibles as faith, mercy, grace, and hope…but few have the ability to dress theology in blue jeans and flip-flops like Nancy Kennedy. A compilation of witty weekly columns written by Nancy for the Citrus County Chronicle in Florida, Lipstick Grace contains many musings–not all of which wrap up in nice, neat packages (because the important things in life rarely do!). In this reflective collection, you’ll find the sufficiency of God holding you steady.

Willow has spent most of her life as her mother's sidekick in a popular Las Vegas hypnotism show. So when she and her mom move back to their sleepy southern hometown to start over, she thinks she's in for a life of quiet normalcy. Except that her new life turns out to be anything but, when she kinda sorta hypnotizes Quinton, the hottest guy on the football team, to fall madly, deeply, head over heels in love with her. But what started out as an innocent way to make her best friend, Max, jealous soon gets way out of hand, and Willow begins to wonder if the mind - and more importantly, the heart - is something you can really control.

Book Description

Apology for Absence: Selected Poems 1962-1992 brings together the finest work of Canadian poet John Newlove. Spanning thirty years, this definitive volume draws from seven of Newlove's previous books of poetry and features a group of new, never-before-published poems. Few poets have fused the lyrical and documentary modes more perfectly than John Newlove. One moment he is the delicate lyricist, improving upon themes of love, beauty and loss. The next moment, he is the archivist of human consciousness, documenting the unspoken atrocities of Canadian history. Margaret Atwood has called John Newlove a `master builder.' According to Frank Davey, his style is `one of the most direct and visually precise in twentieth-century poetry.' This collection represents the full range of Newlove's oeuvre, from the tender `For Judith, Now About Ten Years Old' to the satiric `Indian Women', from the concretely-rendered `The Fat Man' to the visionary `Ride Off Any Horizon'. John Newlove was one of the first poets to hold a mirror up to Canada's treatment of its Native peoples. Here are found such remarkable Native poems as `Crazy Riel' and `The Pride'.

Book Description

Instead of asserting any alleged rivalry between Marlowe and Shakespeare, Sawyer examines the literary reception of the two when the writers are placed in tandem during critical discourse or artistic production. Focusing on specific examples from the last 400 years, the study begins with Robert Greene’s comments in 1592 and ends with the post-9/11 and 7/7 era. The study not only looks at literary critics and their assessments, but also at playwrights such as Aphra Behn, novelists such as Anthony Burgess, and late twentieth-century movie and theatre directors. The work concludes by showing how the most recent outbreak of Marlowe as Shakespeare’s ghostwriter accelerates due to a climate of conspiracy, including “belief echoes,” which presently permeate our cultural and critical discourse.
