Transport yourself to a world of imagination and wonder, a world in which magic is real and miracles are commonplace. Born from a marriage of art and allegory, written as a celebration of love and friendship, every offering represents a unique interpretation of the artistic talent of a gifted individual. Seek within for tales of the light and the dark, of courage and cowardice, of intense joy and profound sorrow, of audacious bravery and abject fear. No matter which one of the narratives incorporated within this anthology of flash fiction you choose to read, it will not fail to delight and entertain you. A desert will brim with life once more. A mermaid will find her home. A nurse will meet her destiny. The world will end and begin anew. An ice sculpture will flourish in the desert, and a witch will find her familiar. A mortal will find love with a god while a cat will dance for love. A foolish young man will barter away his soul while another will gamble with the souls of many. A soldier will deny his heart, and a prince will prove himself to be heartless. Travel to the end of the world and cheer as a widow is reborn. Marvel at the heroism of a princess who helps her brother win back his throne and the perseverance of an unappreciated young boy who becomes the designer to a queen. Sometimes funny and sometimes sad, whether the tale evokes laughter or tears, be prepared to enter a diverse landscape brimming with countless wonders, marvels, and delights.

In 'The Dark Night of the Soul' by John of the Cross, the reader is taken on a profound journey of spiritual enlightenment and transformation. This literary masterpiece, written in the 16th century, is a poetic exploration of the soul's union with the divine, expressing themes of suffering, purification, and ultimate union with God. John's use of imagery and metaphor creates a mystical atmosphere, inviting readers to reflect on the depths of their own spiritual experiences. The book is deeply rooted in the Christian mysticism tradition, making it a significant work in the history of religious literature. John of the Cross, a Spanish mystic and poet, drew inspiration from his own mystical experiences and close relationship with fellow mystic, Teresa of Ávila. His writing reflects a deep understanding of the human soul's longing for divine union, as well as the challenges and joys of the spiritual journey. John's profound insights and wisdom continue to inspire readers of all backgrounds and beliefs. I highly recommend 'The Dark Night of the Soul' to readers interested in exploring the depths of spirituality and mysticism. John of the Cross's timeless wisdom and poetic eloquence make this book a must-read for anyone seeking spiritual enlightenment and a deeper connection with the divine.

This is the 16-century collection of spiritual, mystical works regarding the search for unity with the divine. The author wrote part of the works during his imprisonment. In those times, the author experienced bad health and spiritual condition, which inspired him for an inner spiritual search. The result of this search was the poem The Dark Night of the Soul, telling about the soul's journey to unity with God, which goes through three stages: purgation, illumination, and unity. Ascent of Mount Carmel is a treatise to the poem mentioned above, which gives practical advice on the ascetic life. Finally, the Spiritual Canticle is a metaphoric poem about the soul searching the unity with Christ, presented as a story of a wife seeking her beloved husband.

Halfin exposes the inner struggles of Soviet Communists to identify themselves with the Bolshevik Party in the 1920s and 1930s. Combining the analysis of autobiography with the study of Communist psychology and sociology and the politics of Bolshevik self-fashioning, Halfin provides new insight into the preconditions of the Great Purge.
