Book Description
Tanmoy Das, better known as Tan, is a writer of his kind. He has been writing since childhood and here is his first book – a compilation of his stories. A lot can be told in less words. Tiny stories as he calls them, are very much different from regular short stories. The author has tried to come up with a set of tiny stories that talk about subtle instances in the lives of the protagonist(s). The idea is to present a few pages from big untold novels and let the readers envisage riding on their own imagination. Overall, this compilation is a good mixture of thoughts, imagination and sentiments, wrapped in simplicity and delicate human propensities and emotions. It will allow the readers to let loose of their imagination and think beyond the pages in this book. The stories start with no background and end abruptly, almost every time, in a situation where there would be more that remains untold and the reader is free to see through his mind's eye. This book will be able to make the readers ponder upon infinitesimal occurrents from the daily life which are brutally and habitually ignored in the wonted hubbub. The tiny stories would provide previews of few of the countless colors of life in black and white.

The Battle for Normality
Author: Gerard J. M. Van den Aardweg
Publisher: Ignatius Press
ISBN: 1681494620
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
This book is primarily meant for those homosexuality afflicted persons who seek practical advice in order to change, or, at least, to constructively and responsibly deal with it. It is written with their needs, anxieties, and weaknesses in mind, as Dr. Van den Aardweg has learned them during more than 30 years of therapy with homosexual persons. There is a need for such a practical ""guide"" because there are very few able therapists who want to help the well-intentioned homosexual to change, and because most existing works on homosexuality are about theory, not about every-day self-therapy. Theoretical subjects are discussed, too, in so far as they are necessary to be able to fight the homosexual inclination, and to refute certain myths. This is a Christian psychological approach and it offers the best opportunities for change. ""Rich and insightful. Highly recommended."" -Paul Vitz, Ph.D. ""Provides a useful, ""no-nonsense"" guide for self-help therapy. Many readers will be helped by this practical book."" - Joseph Nicolosi, Ph.D., Author, Healing Homosexuality , Gerard Van den Aardweg has had a private psychotherapeutic practice since 1963 in Holland, specializing in the treatment of homosexuality and marriage problems. He has written for many publications in these fields, and has authored several books on homosexuality.
