Book Description
“A free-wheeling vehicle . . . an unforgettable ride!”—The New York Times Cat’s Cradle is Kurt Vonnegut’s satirical commentary on modern man and his madness. An apocalyptic tale of this planet’s ultimate fate, it features a midget as the protagonist, a complete, original theology created by a calypso singer, and a vision of the future that is at once blackly fatalistic and hilariously funny. A book that left an indelible mark on an entire generation of readers, Cat’s Cradle is one of the twentieth century’s most important works—and Vonnegut at his very best. “[Vonnegut is] an unimitative and inimitable social satirist.”—Harper’s Magazine “Our finest black-humorist . . . We laugh in self-defense.”—Atlantic Monthly

Early Christian Experience
Author: Günther Bornkamm
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780334003472
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
What a treasure is the English edition of Giinther Bornkamm's Early Christian Experience! This is a collection of scholarly papers on NT subjects gathered and translated by Paul Hammer... Of the eleven papers only one, the second, is otherwise than Pauline in its subject-matter, and nos. 4 to 7 provide a most valuable supplement to any commentary on Romans. No. 8 analyses the Kenosis passage in Philippians, and the last expounds I Corinthians 13. This is high-level preachers' nourishment, the kind of searching stuff which helps preaching to be preaching rather than casual journalism. Tough, but immensely worth while

Pages : 386
Book Description
No one knew where she had come from. A scrap of a girl clinging to a black cat with eerie yellow eyes. A lost child or an orphan, maybe. It was a miracle she had survived on Eden Mountain at all. Suddenly strange things began to happen in placid Ruger County, bizarre killings that the police couldn’t solve. Horrifying accidents that the people couldn’t comprehend. An insatiable beast was stalking their intimate hideaways, their swimming holes—and their children. No one noticed how quickly the little girl’s pale cheeks turned pink with health. How her frail body filled out with sleek, lithe muscles and feline grace. And no one noticed that at night her innocent blue eyes turned an eerie, evil yellow . . .
