Mysterious illnesses affect the inhabitants of the post-industrial village of Innertown, and a pervasive sense of malaise hangs everywhere. So when teenage boys disappear into the poisoned woods surrounding the village s abandoned chemical plant, no one notices, or if they do, they don t say a thing. Not even the town s only cop, whose leads have long since died. To one boy, however, the chemical plant is beautiful, and it is there he will enact...

I Put a Spell on You
ISBN: 9780099554943 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this exquisite, haunting book, John Burnside describes his coming of age from the industrial misery of Cowdenbeath and Corby to the new world of Cambridge. This is a memoir of romance - of lost love and the love of being lost - darkened by threat, illuminated by glamour. The old Scots word 'glamour' means magical charm, and the first time he was played I Put a Spell on You, John Burnside thought he had never heard a more beautiful song - it was an enchantment, a fascination that would turn to obsession. Implicit in the song were all the ambiguities that intrigued him - love, possession and...

Gift Songs
ISBN: 9780224079976 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. To the Shakers, a good song was a gift; indeed the test of a song s goodness was how much of a gift it was. In their call to "labour to make the way of God your own," Shaker artists expressed an aesthetic that had much in common with the old Japanese notion, attributed to Hokusai, that to paint bamboo, one had first to "become" bamboo. In his 10th collection, John Burnside begins with an interrogation of the gift song, treating matters of faith and connection, the community of living creatures and the idea of a free churchwhere faith is placed, not in dogma or a possible credo, but in the...

Wie alle anderen

Nach Jahren des Vorsatzes, niemals so zu werden wie sein Vater, muss sich John Burnside eingestehen, dass er den gleichen Weg eingeschlagen hat wie der Mann, den er zutiefst verachtet: Drogen, Alkohol und die Weigerung, Verantwortung zu übernehmen, haben ihn an den Rand des Wahnsinns gebracht. Ganz unten angekommen, beschließt er, wieder für ein Leben zu kämpfen, das diesen Namen wirklich verdient. Er möchte werden wie alle anderen. John Burnside...

From Role to Soul: 15 Shifts on the Awakening Journey
ISBN: 9781939288578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From my work with many who have awakened, I've learned that what it takes for us to finally quit trying to awaken, and simply awaken, is highly individualized. In my own life, I can detect 15 shifts that occurred within me. Yet, as I talk with others, it becomes increasingly apparent that those shifts are pretty much common to the experience of awakening. In FROM ROLE TO SOUL, I take you into the everyday nitty-gritty of what awakening is-what it looks like, what it feels like, and how it comes about. As you experience the shifts in your own life, you'll find a new joy arising in you, a deep...
