![]() ![]() ![]() (OK, maybe there are a few of those, but only a few!)īut there definitely are lots of bridge symbols and imagery, which elevates this from a fun novel to literature. Instead, it's hilarious, so it could also win Funniest Book of the Year-without being filled with stupid jokes. It should win an award for Most Heartwarming Book of the Year-without being all treacly and sweet. This is the story of all those people, all those troubled, hurting, anxious people who meet and share their stories and learn so much about themselves, each other, and the point of living together on this planet. ![]() And there is a lot of bridge symbolism and imagery. It's also the story of the two police officers-a father and a son-who end the hostage siege and then investigate the crime. This is the story of a bank robber who botches the job and then inadvertently takes eight people hostage, all of whom are viewing an apartment for sale in a small town in Sweden the day before New Year's Eve. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Provocative, eye-opening, and often surprisingly funny, Made to Stick shows us the vital principles of winning ideas-and tells us how we can apply these rules to making our own messages stick. It's a fast-paced tour of success stories (and failures): the Nobel Prize-winning scientist who drank a glass of bacteria to prove a point about stomach ulcers the charities who make use of the Mother Teresa Effect the elementary-school teacher whose simulation actually prevented racial prejudice. ![]() Made to Stick will transform the way you communicate. Along the way, we discover that sticky messages of all kinds-from the infamous "kidney theft ring" hoax to a coach's lessons on sportsmanship to a vision for a new product at Sony-draw their power from the same six traits. In Made to Stick, Chip and Dan Heath reveal the anatomy of ideas that stick and explain ways to make ideas stickier, such as applying the human scale principle, using the Velcro Theory of Memory, and creating curiosity gaps. Meanwhile, people with important ideas-entrepreneurs, teachers, politicians, and journalists-struggle to make them "stick." Mark Twain once observed, "A lie can get halfway around the world before the truth can even get its boots on." His observation rings true: Urban legends, conspiracy theories, and bogus news stories circulate effortlessly.

Every night, the faraway whales sing to him, the birds tell him their stories, and the magical Night Sea from his mother’s stories brings him gifts.

Nikita Gill won’t be for everyone, because there is a strong feminist tone throughout the book. I really connected with the writing, and therefore in a way with the author who wrote them. ![]() There are no epics, no extended tragedies like you might find in the works of the old classic authors, but these poems really spoke to me. For her to recommend something like that to me, it must be good.Įverything about every poem in this book I enjoyed. I’m not entirely sure why maybe because with poetry I have a harder time conjuring up the world the way I do with full length novels? Who knows! However, when my sister recommended Wild Embers to me after she blew through it in a couple of days, I was immediately intrigued because my sister KNOWS I normally don’t read poetry. I honestly do not read as much poetry as I used to.

As rich visually as it is conceptually, Wiley's work has drawn. His work began primarily from photographs he took of young men on the street in Harlem that he remixed with a fusion of historic painting styles, including elements of the French rococo. ![]() ![]() ![]() A tale of dislocation and dispossession, which Rhys writes with a kind of romantic cynicism, desperate and pungent' The Times 'Compelling, painful and exquisite' Guardian Set against the lush backdrop of 1830s Jamaica, Jean Rhys's powerful, haunting masterpiece was inspired by her fascination with the first Mrs Rochester, the mad wife in Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre. He forces Antoinette to conform to his rigid Victorian ideals, unaware that in taking away her identity he is destroying a part of himself as well as pushing her towards madness. Initially drawn to her beauty and sensuality, he becomes increasingly frustrated by his inability to reach into her soul. ![]() ![]() If Antoinette Cosway, a spirited Creole heiress, could have foreseen the terrible future that awaited her, she would not have married the young Englishman.

The play made its world premiere at San Francisco’s Curran Theatre almost 30 years ago before winning a Tony Award and the Pulitzer Prize. Still, “Fences” is a powerful drama with themes of racism and inequality that, sadly, could not be more relevant. Denzel Washington and Viola Davis turn in masterful performances in the Washington-directed “Fences,” adapted from the famed August Wilson play. Paramount Pictures But as a director, he sometimes loses the propulsive cadence of Wilson’s text, letting this prestige picture flag just when it should punch us straight in the gut. ![]() It burns with gravity and regret, and Washington lights a fire in Troy, a proud man whose long-repressed rage is destroying him from within.

As she examines them, she attempts to answer this question: “How should the knowledge that God is _ change the way I live?” In other words, what measurable change should occur as a result of meditating on God’s unique attributes? Further, she means to show how we, as human beings, treat the first list. But even more so, it is her focus: She focuses entirely on the first group, the traits that are true of God alone. Partly it is audience, since her book is written by a woman for women. ![]() These attributes have already been the subject of many books, with luminaries like Charnock, Pink, Sproul, and Tozer writing excellent works on them. In the second group, communicable attributes, they place holy, loving, just, merciful, and so on. In the first group, his incommunicable attributes, they place infinite, incomprehensible, eternal, omnipotent, and several more. ![]() Theologians tend to make two lists of attributes, dividing them by those that are unique to God and those that he has given to other creatures.
