Book Description
In 1688, Charles Le Brun, a French academician, delivered a lecture on expression that was so popular it was published in sixty-three separate editions and influenced all discussion of the subject throughout Europe for over a century. This book reconstructs and translates the text of the lecture (badly garbled in all previous versions), explores the context in which it was conceived, delivered, received, and finally rejected, and reproduces the images that accompanied the lecture.

Book Description
Join J. M. Coetzee and Thomas Keneally in rediscovering Nobel Laureate Patrick White Hurtle Duffield, a painter, coldly dissects the weaknesses of any and all who enter his circle. His sister's deformity, a grocer's moonlight indiscretion, the passionate illusions of the women who love him-all are used as fodder for his art. It is only when Hurtle meets an egocentric adolescent whom he sees as his spiritual child does he experience a deeper, more treacherous emotion in this tour de force of sexual and psychological menace that sheds brutally honest light on the creative experience.

Book Description
Shred Wallaces Oblivion, Pynchons V, Leyners Sugar Frosted Nutsack* and Ouredniks Instant Propice. Gather in a 2 Gallon Ziploc Brand Freezer Bag. Shake, half-bake. And heres this subtly crusted bilingual English/French-Canadian novel entitled Kissing Number. Keywords? Sure! Pseudo-thermodynamics. Limerence. High finance as an art form. Cuban cattlehead refrigerators. Why you, the well-advised, polymath reader ought to spend hard-earned money on this book on the sole basis of self-proclaimed cross-references and a few keywords is beyond reason. To tell you the truth, youre currently holding a pure akratic object in your hands, yet reasonably priced at single-digit dollars and 99 cents. Good luck with that one. * This novel by Leyner isnt yet published as I go to press, the influence here being non-causal, making the two books entangled in a quantum mechanical sense. Cant wait to see how The Sugar Frosted Nutsack turns out as it will instantly determine the opposite content of KN. Exciting!!! Later note: Leyners book just came out a minute ago. Pure genius. Well, so much for this book! Put it back on the shelf, now.

Book Description
L’Œuvre complète de Zacharias Tanee Fomum sur la Doctrine chrétienne fondamentale est une anthologie de 13 livres clés sur les doctrines fondamentales de la vie chrétienne par le Professeur Zacharias Tanee Fomum: Le Chemin de la Vie Le Chemin de l’Obéissance Le Chemin d’être Disciple Le Chemin de la Sanctification Le Chemin du Caractère Chrétien Le Chemin du Combat Spirituel Le Chemin de la Souffrance pour Christ Le Chemin de la Prière Victorieuse Le Chemin des Vainqueurs Le Chemin de la Puissance Spirituelle Le Chemin de l’Encouragement Spirituel Le Chemin de l’Amour pour le Seigneur Le Chemin du Service Chrétien Toute personne qui commence sa marche chrétienne sans ces fondamentaux pourrait trainer les pas sur le chemin étroit, au lieu de courir ou d’être en croisière. Le Seigneur est à la recherche des disciples à Son image. Si elle est lue et bien assimilée, La Série Le Chemin, vous propulsera de l’état de nouveau converti, de croyant ou de membre d’église, pour faire de vous ce genre de disciple que Jésus a ordonné. Ce faisant, la fondation pour un leadership spirituel perpétuel sera posée. Voudrais-tu devenir un disciple qui plait au Seigneur ? Si « oui », cette anthologie est un outil indispensable pour vous transporter à bon port. Nous publions cette anthologie avec un cri du Seigneur de la moisson ; afin qu’il serve à produire des disciples qui Lui rendent une obéissance en toutes choses, des pécheurs, des saints, des convertis, des membres d’église et des croyants en Christ. Que l’Éternel te visite pendant que tu parcours cet ouvrage. Puisse-t-il te transformer en un disciple dépendant du Seigneur Jésus Christ, nonobstant ta condition.
