From the Pulitzer Finalist and universally beloved author of the New York Times best sellers Swamplandia! and Vampires in the Lemon Grove, a stunning new collection of short fiction that showcases Karen Russell’s extraordinary, irresistible gifts of language and imagination. Karen Russell’s comedic genius and mesmerizing talent for creating outlandish predicaments that uncannily mirror our inner in lives is on full display in these eight exuberant, arrestingly vivid, unforgettable stories. In“Bog Girl”, a revelatory story about first love, a young man falls in love with a two thousand year old girl that he’s extracted from a mass of peat in a Northern European bog. In “The Prospectors,” two opportunistic young women fleeing the depression strike out for new territory, and find themselves fighting for their lives. In the brilliant, hilarious title story, a new mother desperate to ensure her infant’s safety strikes a diabolical deal, agreeing to breastfeed the devil in exchange for his protection. The landscape in which these stories unfold is a feral, slippery, purgatorial space, bracketed by the void—yet within it Russell captures the exquisite beauty and tenderness of ordinary life. Orange World is a miracle of storytelling from a true modern master.
This book is not just another attempt to sensationalize the Second Coming of Christ, or to grab headlines in the newspaper. Instead, it is a well thought out biblical analysis of the subject of Jesus' return to the earth. Author, Dr. Jimmie L. Chapman, makes no attempt to set a date for the coming of Christ; but he gives us biblical proof that it must be near. "Many have made the foolish mistake of setting a date for the Lord's return only to meet with frustration and Jesus himself warned us, "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." Matthew 24:36. "Jesus has given us numerous signs that will precede his return and we are seeing nearly all of them in this age and we will assuredly see them all soon." he said. Dr. Chapman shows us that the idea of the Second Coming is in the Bible from Genesis to the Revelation. It is our responsibility to be ready for it. Are you ready?
Author Marita Mister believes many are having an affair with the devil and are either in love with the devil or are just blind. Venture into this book with Marita Mister as she shares her real-life experience of an adulterous affair with the devil. Sleeping with the Enemy affects many lives today—the saint as well as the sinner. While God's created beings are blindfolded, Satan is stripping off the clothes, socks, and shoes of the preachers, teachers, bishops, and prophets alike. After they are vulnerable, he seeks out the lonely, depressed, brokenhearted, and victims of abuse to make sure that they are without truth and apart from God. If you want to take off the blindfold and get out of the relationship with the enemy, if you want to change bed partners and see through the eyes of Jesus, read Sleeping with the Enemy and get a good night's rest.
