Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Descendants—a “funny, insightful, and unsentimental” (People, 4 stars) novel about a grieving mother and the shocking surprise that may help her reclaim her hold on life. In the idyllic ski town of Breckenridge, Colorado, Sarah St. John is reeling. Three months ago, her twenty-two-year-old son, Cully, died in an avalanche. Sarah’s father, a retiree, tries to distract her from her grief with gadgets from the home shopping channel. Sarah’s best friend offers life advice by venting details of her own messy divorce. Even Cully’s father reemerges, stirring more emotions and confusion than Sarah needs. But Sarah feels she is facing the stages of grief—the anger, the sadness, the letting go—alone; she desperately wants to hear the swoosh of her son’s ski pants, or watch him skateboard past her window. And one day a strange girl arrives on her doorstep. Unexpected and unexplained, she bears a secret from Cully that could change all of their lives forever. With wry wit and intuition, Kaui Hart Hemmings highlights the subtle poignancies of grief and relationships in this stunning look at people faced with impossible choices. Called “surprisingly entertaining” (The New York Times Book Review) and “familiar yet richly, astutely observant and reflective” (The Boston Globe), The Possibilities brilliantly portrays tragic ineffability with grace and hope.

The Book of Possibilities
Author: Earthlinks Circle

ISBN: 9781907084201
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
It is widely recognised that we have reached a critical point in human development. Our planet struggles to maintain its health; human beings are confronted globally by deep-seated conflicts and destructive patterns of behaviour. Many of us, driven by short-term self-interest, have lost touch with our connectedness to the web of life. At the same time, developments in the fields of science, consciousness studies and spirituality suggest that we are on the verge of a step change in our understanding of the nature of the universe and of the place of consciousness within it. Humanity has reached a point where it is both possible and required that it take an active and intelligent part in its own evolution. This book assists in that process. It goes beyond the self help focus on the individual and demonstrates that the capacity to change how we individually and collectively experience life for the joy of that experience is greatly enhanced through working consciously for the highest good of all beings. It enables us to instigate a collective choice for the exercise of this capacity to become our reality.The book draws on current experience, ancient mystical traditions and newly received psycho-spiritual approaches to offer guidance and tools, laid out in a way that is easily accessible to all. The Earthlinks Circle The book is authored by a group of seven diverse individuals and represents their distilled experience of over twelve years collective meditative practice working together to help manifest the highest potential for human and planetary evolution for the greatest good of all being.
