Book Description
This is a relaxing, lighthearted story centered on the memories of Philip Lawson and his attachment to a piece of farm machinery. Philip and his wife Clarisa are products of the baby boomer generation. Now in their mid-fifties, Philip and Clarisa frequently reminisce about the days when the kids were at home and the community was thriving with activity. Philip knows the importance of telling his own story as it really happened before someone else tells it the way they would like for it to be told. So here he seizes the opportunity to do just that; to tell his story as it really happened over a span of a half-century, give or take a few years. Throughout Philips recollecting, the reader is constantly besieged with wonderment as to the believability of his encounters.

Book Description
In this complex and absorbing work, Joshua Enos explores the nature of story, ritual, truth, and time through the multiple realities of central characters Rebecca Metcalf (a successful or unsuccessful author), Jody Hanna (a logico-mathematical theorist or an undergraduate sound technician), and Loxlornica Howe (the daughter of Hanna and Metcalf, an adopted polymath child prodigy, or the victim of two unusual kidnappings). Through their experiences with the touchstones of love, freedom, memory, and death, they seek out the limits of what can ultimately be known about the world, about each other, and about themselves.

Book Description
Fictional stories speak to us in a way that is truer than real life. Even Jesus Christ, the greatest teacher of all time, regularly tapped into the power of telling completely untrue--and yet deeply true--stories. This book takes as its starting point the truth of the made up and uses one of the most popular story structures of all time--the Hero's Journey--and invites you to use this as the scaffolding for making meaning out of your own life. It is an invitation to storify your life, to get your bearings, to plot where you are. Are you being called to something? Are you enduring an ordeal? Are you enjoying the hard-won gains of a protracted struggle that is now finally over? By using this book's twelve-part structure you will gain more insight into what the threats and opportunities are at your particular stage of your particular adventure.

Book Description
As a naive and innocent young man, Parzival encounters a group of noble knights in the forest. Overcome by the leading knight's shining armor, he assumes that the man must be a God. This key turning point in Parzival's life inspires him to seek to become a knight himself, and immediately he embarks upon a quest to find King Arthur's court and ultimately the Holy Grail. Through his journeys Parzival is to learn many unexpected lessons, discovering qualities of empathy, humility, compassion and ultimately true and selfless love. Filled with spiritual wisdom and artistic beauty, Parzival is one of the greatest works of world literature. In this concise, accessible introduction to the central Gail story, Eileen Hutchins describes the key characters, including Parzival's father Gamuret and mother Herzeleide, and relates the tale in outline. Her classic study also features commentary on the book's historical background, essays on its significance today, and a comparison with other Grail Romances.
