Angels & Saints

Angels & Saints PDF Author: Eliot Weinberger
Publisher: New Directions Publishing
ISBN: 0811229874
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 153

Book Description
A gorgeously illustrated co-publication with Christine Burgin by “one of the world’s great essayists” (The New York Times). With a guide to the illustrations by Mary Wellesley. Angels have soared through Western culture and consciousness from Biblical to contemporary times. But what do we really know about these celestial beings? Where do they come from, what are they made of, how do they communicate and perceive? The celebrated essayist Eliot Weinberger has mined and deconstructed, resurrected and distilled centuries of theology into an awe-inspiring exploration of the heavenly host. From a litany of angelic voices, Weinberger’s lyrical meditation then turns to the earthly counterparts, the saints, their lives retold in a series of vibrant and playful capsule biographies, followed by a glimpse of the afterlife. Threaded throughout Angels & Saints are the glorious illuminated grid poems by the eighteenth-century Benedictine monk Hrabanus Maurus. These astonishingly complex, proto-“concrete” poems are untangled in a lucid afterword by the medieval scholar and historian Mary Wellesley.

Book Description
This box set collection includes the original "Mating Season" trilogy of the Wolves of Angels Rest where sexy wolf shifter heroes find their strong and sassy fated mates, plus a bonus fourth story with a rare thunderbird shifter. HERO The mating moon is rising… Maddie Joplin left the high desert town of Angels Rest with the searing memory of her one night in the arms of the local golden boy nipping at her heels. Now, years later, she's back, haunted by a need she couldn't outrun and determined to finally set herself free from wishes that can never come true. In the army, Kane Villalobos traveled the world, seeking other shapeshifters who'd learned to live in harmony with human, only to find secrecy and death. He's destined to become alpha of the Mesa Diablo pack, but he can't forget the lush curves and quick mouth of the girl he had to leave behind. Seeing her again arouses his wolf in dangerous ways, and keeping her safe—from himself and the perils of the werewolf world—might mean letting her go forever. JOKER The mating moon is high… Born and raised in a clandestine paramilitary cult dedicated to destroying all shapeshifting monsters, Leela Jones has to prove her worth by testing her deadly new revolvers on the terrible white wolfman. Too bad he caught her. Even worse, she's not sure if she wants to get away. Vicious werewolf hunters killed Bastian Villalobos' father and left him to run wild, dreaming of a someday revenge. But when that someday comes, it's in the soft, quiet shape of a lonely woman suffering the same pain as him. She knows him in a way no one else does, and together they could broker a ceasefire between their people. Except not everyone wants peace… ROGUE The mating moon goes dark… Rafael Villalobos is a werewolf without his wolf. The beast is rogue, gone hunting without him, making Rafe even more of a menace to his pack than the wolf hunters who hate them. He doesn't know what the wolf wants…until it leads him straight to the sassy, luscious Darling Rowan. Bitten by a rogue wolf that may or may not have been the sexiest Villalobos boy, Dare knows her quiet days as the county librarian are coming to an end. She'll be coming too, if she can just get a certain stubborn man to admit that the simmering heat between them is more than the mating moon. Bonus thunderbird shifter story! WARRIOR After the mating moon sets, the trouble is only beginning… Thunder Cole may be the last of his kind. He'll help his distant shapeshifter kindred with their werewolf hunter problem, but then he's moving on — alone. Until he meets Elizabeth Rowan. Bets became "Auntie Fate", a fake psychic tarot reader, to support her orphaned niece, but she doesn't believe in the woo-woo magical world. Until she meets Thunder Cole. Both of them think their second chances are long gone. They couldn't be more wrong. But a bitter enemy on a quest for vengeance against the wolves of Angels Rest may destroy everything they love. A doubter will believe, a warrior will rise, and passion will rule the day... _________________________________________________ Keywords: werewolf wolf shifter paranormal romance alpha male fated mates second chance at love friends to lovers coming home military hero thunderbird bbw

The City of Falling Angels

The City of Falling Angels PDF Author: John Berendt
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 9780143036937
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 438

Book Description
A #1 New York Times Bestseller! "Funny, insightful, illuminating . . ." —The Boston Globe Twelve years ago, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil exploded into a monumental success, residing a record-breaking four years on the New York Times bestseller list (longer than any work of fiction or nonfiction had before) and turning John Berendt into a household name. The City of Falling Angels is Berendt's first book since Midnight, and it immediately reminds one what all the fuss was about. Turning to the magic, mystery, and decadence of Venice, Berendt gradually reveals the truth behind a sensational fire that in 1996 destroyed the historic Fenice opera house. Encountering a rich cast of characters, Berendt tells a tale full of atmosphere and surprise as the stories build, one after the other, ultimately coming together to portray a world as finely drawn as a still-life painting.
