Book Description
He left KoRn to help himself. He went back to help others. And along the way, he nearly lost everything. A life-changing spiritual awakening freed Brian “Head” Welch from a stranglehold of drugs and alcohol and prompted him to leave the highly successful nu-metal band KoRn in 2005. What followed was a decade-long trial by fire, from the perils of fathering a teen lost in depression and self-mutilation to the harsh realities of playing solo and surviving the shattering betrayal of a trusted friend. In this intensely inspiring redemption saga, perhaps most inspiring is Brian’s radical decision to rejoin KoRn and reconcile with the tribe of people he once considered family in the metal music scene. Brian returned to his musical roots with a clear head and a devoted heart. Though his story is wild, hilarious, and deeply poignant, the message is simple: God will love you into the freedom of being yourself, as long as you keep the relationship going and never, ever quit.

Book Description
Mia It was so close, I'd tasted it-the freedom. But the only thing I could taste now was the end. Over the last two years, I'd let all outside forces dictate my life, my feelings, my head. I'd allowed everyone to control what my punishment should be for all my wrong-doings. I'd been tested and learned my lesson.I'd paid my dues and suffered long enough. Because in the end, even the once-upon-a-damned deserved to be happy too. Ollie How far are you willing to go? I'd asked myself this very question countless times. But never in my wildest dreams thought I'd go back in time, chasing ghosts from my past for a chance to save our future.So, there was no limit. No boundaries. I'd cross time, the world, my morals. Yes, I'd even double-cross myself.So, how far would I go? The answer had always been simple.I'd go an eternity plus a day past crestfallen.

Book Description
BLACK AND WHITE VERSION From Cirque Press, Wide Open Eyes: Surfacing from Vietnam a collection of braided tales by Paul Haeder (fiction). What radiates from every page of Paul Haeder's Wide Open Eyes - Surfacing from Vietnam is a journeyman's gift for showing the ties that bind ordinary people to their own crystallized struggle with "their Vietnam War baggage." These 17 fictional stories confront estrangement war veterans and their families have dredged through lives which are heroic because they all are survivors. This is a collection of stirring interlinked stories of reclamation from the perspective of the walking wounded. The characters are colorful inside Haeder's cauldron of quirky visceral story-telling. Lost souls are deftly moved from plot to plot as this writer shows a wizard's sense of life's absurdity. There is sinew and heart sculpted into myriad of protagonists. --- Ordinary people are scrawled into this atmospheric collection, yet Haeder seeks to explore the devastation of heartache by deploying black humor and leafy poignancy. From an old Army colonel lamenting rotting teeth getting yanked, to a hard-boiled street person humping it in the West flailing at his own demons from America's War with Vietnam, this is funny, stirring stuff from a talented writer. --- Coupled with his imaginative story-telling and eye-watering vernacular, this collection comes with arresting photographs anchoring each story. Eighteen photographs are an added creative touch to his fiction. The writer was in Vietnam - after the war - as his preface sets the stage for the first casualties of war. Praise for the Stories: "From a lonely bookseller in Albuquerque to a street vagabond in Tucson, these are people most readers pass over in their lives. As readers of this collection, if we keep our eyes open and ears tuned, Haeder shows us vibrancy in people struggling. The author pins a lot of these stories on the theme 'surfacing from Vietnam, ' but the reality is we as readers are forced to dive deep into the author's realm of sometimes twisted characters and unforgiving plots." -- Rick DeMarinis (1995), Author of The Year of the Zinc Penny, The Mortician's Apprentice, and other works.

Book Description
Journeys with Open Eyes is not a travel book although it provides a wealth of information about places far-away and sometimes very close to home, both locationally and psychologically. Nor is it a history book, although the author, Hugh Roberts, was present in or around many of the world's trouble spots immediately before or after some of the epoch-making events of the 20th and early 21st centuries. This is a book about people. As such, it is concerned with Hugh's empathetic approach to members of the human race, be they indigenous residents of the High Andes, Soviet functionaries, Arab princes, white South Africans of the Apartheid era or numerous others. There can be no doubt that empathy helped him in his career as an international Urban Planner but empathy like this is only found in those with a genuine love for humankind. Hugh judges systems of government but rarely the people operating or imposing them. As a result, he invariably gets the best out of his fellows whether as friends, work colleagues or chance acquaintances. Journeys with Open Eyes will entertain and educate the reader in full measure and should be required reading for all who care for the inhabitants of this planet.

Book Description
A journey of reckoning and renewal, this story of family history and future dreams is an examination of the individual imagination as a catalyst for social change Whatever the ideological slant of our information feeds, nowadays we all share a sense of binge-watching the apocalypse. Facing so much uncertainty, we need a language for thinking about the unknown not simply as a threat but also as a space of fertile possibility. George Prochnik has chosen to reflect on these urgent themes through the lens of a personal narrative: an account of his own family’s decision to leave the United States. I Dream with Open Eyes begins with an exploration of Prochnik’s ancestral past: the pilgrimage of his mother’s family, who were among the first English settlers in the New World. In the aftermath of the 2016 election, a parallel migration unfolds as Prochnik, along with his wife and their son, makes the decision to uproot their lives in New York to move to England. A deep critique of this current moment, Prochnik takes the words of nineteenth-century poet Heinrich Heine, “I dream with open eyes, and my eyes see,” as an inspiration to ask how, as a society, we might use art and literature to refract and expand our vision of the future, while simultaneously generating a new focus on present realities.
