London: Penguin, 2016. 1st. h/b. Fine, 1st edition, signed on title.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). From the bestselling author of THE LIBRARIAN. How much can love ask of us? Brilliant and mercurial Will Tye suffers a life changing accident. The terrible event ripples through three generations of the complex and eccentric Tye family, bringing to light old tragedies and dangerous secrets. Each member of the family holds some clue to the chain of events which may have led to the accident and each holds themselves to blame. Most closely affected is Will's cousin Cecelia, whose affinity with Will leaves her most vulnerable to his suffering and whose own life is for ever changed by how she will respond to it. Told through the eyes of three women close to Will, his sister, his grandmother and his aunt, Cousins is a novel weaving darkness and light which takes us from the outbreak of World War Two to the present day, exploring the recurrence of tragedy, the nature of trangression, and the limits of morality…

New Haven & London: Yale University Press, 2003. 1st. h/b. Fine, 1st edition (1st printing), signed to title, unclipped d/j (in protective sleeve), blue clothbound boards, gilt spine titling bright; text block firm, untrimmed pages crisp and unmarked.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). Gore Vidal, one of the master stylists of American literature and an acute observer of American life and history, turns his literary and historiographic talent to a portrait of the formidable trio of George Washington, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. In ""Inventing a Nation"", Vidal transports the reader into the minds, the living rooms (and bedrooms), the convention halls and the salons of Washington, Jefferson, Adams and others. We come to know these men, their opinions of each other, their worries about money and their concerns about creating a viable democracy.

Description:
Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2005. 1st. paperback. Good, 1st edition (3rd printing), some normal scuffing and wear; some pages dog-eared.. C (216 x 135). We are at our human best when we give and forgive.But we live in a world in which it makes little sense to do either one. In our increasingly graceless culture, where can we find the motivation to give? And how do we learn to forgive when forgiving seems counterintuitive or even futile? A deeply personal yet profoundly thoughtful book, Free of Charge explores these questions Рand the further questions to which they give rise Ð in light of GodÕs generosity and ChristÕs sacrifice for us. Miroslav Volf draws from popular culture as well as from a wealth of literary and theological sources, weaving his rich reflections around the sturdy frame of PaulÕs vision of GodÕs grace and Martin LutherÕs interpretation of that vision. Blending the best of theology and spirituality, he encourages us to echo in our own lives GodÕs generous giving and…
