AuthorAthanasius of Alexandria
ISBN0913836400

I was pleased to find On the Incarnation remarkably fresh and engaging, still fierce and still passionate too. Such is rarely the case with works of theology, particularly when orthodoxy has robbed them even of the novelty of heresy, for dry-as-dust disquisitions on settled questions often summon...

AuthorMary Oliver
ISBN0807068993
“Joy is not made to be a crumb,” writes Mary Oliver, and certainly joy abounds in her new book of poetry and prose poems. Swan, her twentieth volume, shows us that, though we may be “made out of the dust of stars,” we are of the world she captures here so vividly: the acorn that hides within it an entire...
AuthorC.R. Wiley
ISBN0982159803
The Purloined Boy, by C. R. Wiley, is a work of fantasy literature for young adults. In parts dark and grotesque, in others luminous and inspiring; it could be described as R. L. Stine meets Plato. It begins with the question, Where do all those children on the milk cartons go? It provides the answer through...

Number 10 on my Progressive Reading Challenge list, The Dragon and The Raven Or: The Day Of King Alfred is a story of England before it was England, back in the years when the Saxons were dealing with the marauding Danes in the mid- to late 800's. Our hero Edmund is just fourteen years old as the story opens,...

The Household and the War for the Cosmos: Recovering a Christian Vision for the Family
AuthorC.R. Wiley
Really good book which doesn't quite fit the genre, at least not as you probably anticipate. There's a very compelling comparison of Abraham and Aeneas in the first half, and the second half gives a good explanation of "household" (oikonomia) and a very interesting reading of Ephesians with that perspective....
Tout Seul
AuthorChristophe Chabouté
ISBN2749304296
An entire life spent alone on a rock. What's he do all day?

This graphic novel is stunning.

First published in France in 2008, Alone was just translated into English this year, and I'm grateful I had the chance to read this beautiful book. It's about a disfigured man who lives alone in...
Black Rednecks and White Liberals
AuthorThomas Sowell
ISBN1594030863
This book presents the kind of eye-opening insights into the history and culture of race for which Sowell has become famous. As late as the 1940s and 1950s, he argues, poor Southern rednecks were regarded by Northern employers and law enforcement officials as lazy, lawless, and sexually immoral. This...
