Women in the Waiting Room
The All Souls' Waiting Room
Author: Paki S. Wright
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780759656178
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
In fall of 2007, seven old friends came together at the reunion of their high school class, and more importantly, a reunion of their small group, the Beefeaters. Formed in the late forties, the Beefeaters have continued to meet periodically for sixty years. This meeting was different, however. Perhaps sensing their own mortality, the seven friends agreed to write a book together; to leave a record for their family, friends and others who might be interested in how seven boys came of age, matured and lived the greater part of their lives in the later half of the twentieth century. Perhaps prophetically, one of the Beefeaters did die before the book was published and his chapter was written posthumously for him. The others, however, did each author their own chapter. With no preset guidelines, the content of the chapters themselves offer a window into the character and personality of each of the Beefeaters. Seven totally different men emerge from the common source and provide the reader with a variety of fascinating character studies. It is totally unnecessary to have known any of the Beefeaters or to have lived through their times or places in order to enjoy this book. Suffice it to say, you will know them when you finish these pages. The collage of pictures on the cover stem from the last meeting wherein the idea for the book born. The shirts they all are wearing were specially designed by one of the members for that meeting and today are lovingly and respectfully worn by the surviving Beefeaters. Enjoy!

When You Are Engulfed in Flames
Author: David Sedaris
Publisher: Little, Brown
ISBN: 0316032514
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
"David Sedaris's ability to transform the mortification of everyday life into wildly entertaining art," (The Christian Science Monitor) is elevated to wilder and more entertaining heights than ever in this remarkable new book. Trying to make coffee when the water is shut off, David considers using the water in a vase of flowers and his chain of associations takes him from the French countryside to a hilariously uncomfortable memory of buying drugs in a mobile home in rural North Carolina. In essay after essay, Sedaris proceeds from bizarre conundrums of daily life-having a lozenge fall from your mouth into the lap of a fellow passenger on a plane or armoring the windows with LP covers to protect the house from neurotic songbirds-to the most deeply resonant human truths. Culminating in a brilliant account of his venture to Tokyo in order to quit smoking, David Sedaris's sixth essay collection is a new masterpiece of comic writing from "a writer worth treasuring" (Seattle Times). Praise for When You Are Engulfed in Flames: "Older, wiser, smarter and meaner, Sedaris...defies the odds once again by delivering an intelligent take on the banalities of an absurd life." --Kirkus Reviews This latest collection proves that not only does Sedaris still have it, but he's also getting better....Sedaris's best stuff will still--after all this time--move, surprise, and entertain." --Booklist Table of Contents: It's Catching Keeping Up The Understudy This Old House Buddy, Can You Spare a Tie?

Just. You. Wait.
Author: Tricia Lott Williford
Publisher: NavPress
ISBN: 1631467522
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Everybody waits. We wait for a spouse, wait for a baby, wait on our children, wait for our parents. We wait for clarity and direction. We wait on a job, a promotion, a new direction. We wait for hope, for healing, and for miracles. We wait on God. And when we misunderstand what waiting is about, we can get confused about what God is up to. Waiting is one of God’s favorite tools. He can do certain things in our hearts, our lives, and our relationships while we wait—things we cannot experience once we’ve opened the gift we have been waiting for. So just you wait, because everyone takes their turn in the waiting room. It’s a long and painful fact of life, but shortcuts and microwaves aren’t the answer. God is at work behind the scenes in invisible ways you can’t see . . . yet. Just you wait and see how ready you’ll be if you spend your waiting well. Because when your opportunity comes, you don’t want to spend more time on the bench. When you wait well, you can say, “Look out, world: I am getting ready to shine. Just you wait.” In these pages, Tricia discusses the joy hidden in the discipline of waiting, and the practices of believing God is for you and working on your behalf, even when the work of His hand is hard to find.
