by Adrian Plass, Silver Birches Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Silver Birches books, When David Herrick receives an invitation to a reunion from a long forgotten acquaintance, his first reaction is to refuse. After all, he hasn't seen Jenny, Peter or the others since they were all a part of the same youth group two decades ago. Moreover, he isn't feeling very sociable since his wife Jessica died six months ago. But the invitation comes from Angela, one of his wife's oldest friends—and mysteriously, she has something for him from his beloved Jessica. Reluctant but curious, he makes his plans to visit Headly ManorWhen the friends gather, they no longer resemble the fresh-faced group of twenty years ago. Each member bears the weight of their own burden. One has been deserted by her husband, another has lost his faith and another is filled with anger and bile. Life hasn't been the sugar-coated existence they might have hoped for. As they have less than forty-eight hours with each other, they decide to be vulnerable and share their greatest fears, Will they have the courage to bare their souls? And if they do, how will such revelations be received? Will they find a way to lift each other up or will their burdens be too much to bear? This poignant, moving and sometimes disturbing story blends Adrian Plass' rich style of humor with his knack for addressing the deep issues we all face, such as faith, grief, love...and fear.

The County Of Birches

by Judith Kalman, The County Of Birches Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download The County Of Birches books, The County of Birches by Judith Kalman tells the story of a young girl and her family as they flee the Nazi purges of Eastern Europe, as they make their way to London, and as they finally settle in the tightly knit Jewish community of Montreal. While many of the stories are told from young Dana's point of view, many others involve her parents' memories of a prior life in Hungary, and the wounds that were inflicted in the war. Combined, the stories carefully chart an arc through a family's injured life, and ultimately see them through to a path of spiritual and emotional renewal.

Do Not Peel The Birches

by Fleda Brown Jackson, Do Not Peel The Birches Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Do Not Peel The Birches books, In her second collection of poems, Fleda Brown Jackson holdswith a meditative rapture to the place she call home - home as family,the source of trouble and joy; home as the embellished stories of family; andhome as a place called Central Lake. And when the poems move outward -to Stonehenge, Edinburgh, Kitty-Hawk, Roanoke, St. Pete Beach, and theMississippi River - the past keeps resonating. At last, the voice thatremembers becomes nothing but a riding, a hunger. If Iwere a swan, she imagines, "The world would move / under me / andI would always be exactly / where I am." There is an end to history, Jacksonsays, when at last real life and art are able to merge: a mythic Elvis stepsout of her ancestral outhouse, and his singing sounds very much like her ownvoice. "It's not as if one vent stands / beside another, separated by adelicate / membrane," she writes in another poem. It's "all done throughimages, the blood of fear, / of rage, soaking through the towel."
