This “interesting and perceptive” memoir recalls the familial country house the author’s grandparents bought in 1923 (The Washington Post Book World). The only child of divorced parents, Penelope Lively was often sent to stay at her grandparents’ country house, Golsoncott. Long after the house was sold out of the family, she begins to piece together the lives of those she knew fifty years before. As her narrative shifts from room to room, object to object, Lively paints a moving portrait of an era of rapid change—and of a family that transformed with the times. Charting the course of the domestic tensions of class and community among her relatives, she brings to light the evidence of the horrors endured during the Russian Revolution and the Holocaust through accounts of the refugees who came to live with them. “An elegiac yet resolutely unsentimental book, the house becomes a Rosetta stone for the author’s familial memories and an unwitting index of social change” in this eloquent meditation on place and time, memory and history, and tribute to the meaning of home (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times).

Convinced of God’s plan for every person’s life, my journey to unlock and empower leaders began. Thousands of leaders waited on the other side of my obedience. I could never have dreamt what God would do when He unlocked my life and the lives of others. Do you want your life to unlock? Unlock to understand God’s supernatural provision, unlock to discover God’s heavenly abode. Unlock to see God’s miracles signs and wonders In the unlocking of God’s plan for my life, I became a tourist. No fixed abode, no place to call home, living out of bags, travelling all the time, no income to depend upon, only God’s provision. What does it mean? Just do it! This became my story to just do it! Whatever God said, do it! For every branch of the tourism venture, there was a battle. Every step required a victory. Journeys on the world’s worst roads, travelling on the world’s worst train, closely knit with beggars, thieves, and prostitutes, but firmly in the hand of God and His protection. Baptisms in green slime, deliverance for thousands, secret conferences. Being a nomad requires action, effort, a plan, a purpose, a vision; moving from one venture to another, from one adventure to another, from nation to nation to see God move. Empowering and strengthening leaders throughout the third world, training, releasing, mentoring leaders became my life. This is my story unlocked.
