Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. In Passing It On, Susan Baker sums up all that really matters in life from the lessons she has learned as a devoted wife, loving mother, friend to all, and tireless advocate for the well-being of every family. It is hard to write only a few sentences about a friend as dear to me as Susan. I always say that my husband has no dark side, and I truly think of Susan in the same light. I enjoyed reading her encouraging autobiography that is filled with lots of love and joy, selfless giving, and ways to lead a life of faith--elements we can all pass on -- Barbara Bush, Former First Lady and Literacy Advocate In this fascinating and fun memoir Susan Baker truly does 'pass it on.' She passes on wisdom of how to deal with a blended family, troubled teens, a perpetually on the go husband and a cancer diagnosis. Her spirit shines through these pages--not only the spiritual gift of faith that has allowed her to meet life's challenges but also the spiritedness that gives her the gumption to take on powerful interests on behalf of the homeless and children. Baker inspires us all to pass along whatever gifts we have to those who need them.-- Cokie Roberts, news analyst and author.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. A powerful and wise account of a woman's lifelong struggle with Tourette's syndrome and obsessive-compulsive disorder   "Affecting, gripping--no matter what form the reader's own struggles for acceptance may have taken."--Elle I am crazy. But maybe I am not.   For most of her life, these thoughts plagued Amy Wilensky as her mind lurched and veered in ways she didn't understand and her body did things she couldn't control. While she excelled in school and led an otherwise "normal" life, she worried that beneath the surface she was a freak, that there was something irrevocably wrong with her.    A powerful witness to her own dysfunction, Wilensky describes the strain it bore on her relationships with the people she thought she knew best: her family, her friends, and herself. Confronting the labels we apply to ourselves and others--compulsive, crazy, out of control--Amy describes her symptoms, diagnosis, and her treatment with courage and a healthy dose of humor, gradually coming to terms with the absurdities of a life beset by irrational behavior. This compelling narrative, by turns tragic and comic, broadly extends our understanding of the wondrously complex human mind, and, with subtlety and grace, challenges our notion of what it is to be "normal.". …

Condizione: Fair. Nella Larsen'sfascinating exploration of race and identity-the inspiration for the Netflix film directed by Rebecca Hall, starring Tessa Thompson and Ruth Negga. This Signet Classics edition of Passing includes an Introduction by Brit Bennett, the bestselling author of The Vanishing Half. One ofThe Atlantic's Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years Irene Redfield is a Black woman living an affluent, comfortable life with her husband and children in the thriving neighborhood of Harlem in the 1920s. When she reconnects with her childhood friend Clare Kendry, who is similarly light-skinned, Irene discovers that Clare has been passing for a white woman after severing ties to her past-even hiding the truth from her racist husband. Clare finds herself drawn to Irene's sense of ease and security with her Black identity and longs for the community (and, increasingly, the woman) she lost. Irene is both riveted and repulsed by Clare and her dangerous secret, as Clare begins to insert herself-and her deception-into every part of Irene's stable existence. First published in 1929, Larsen's brilliant examination of the various ways in which we all seek to "pass," is as timely as ever.…

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. She wants faith, hope, and love. She wants help and healing. She wants to hear and be heard, to see and be seen. She wants things set right. She wants to know what is true?not partly true, or sometimes true, or almost true. She wants to see Truth itself, face-to-face. But here, now, these things are all cloudy. Hope is tinged with hurt. Faith is shaded by doubt. Lesser, broken things masquerade as love. How does she find something permanent when the world around her is always changing, when not even she can stay the same? And if she finds it, how does she hold on? She Reads Truth tells the stories of two women who discovered, through very different lives and circumstances, that only God and His Word remain unchanged as the world around them shifted and slipped away. Infused with biblical application and Scripture, this book is not just about two characters in two stories, but about one Hero and one Story. Every image points to the bigger picture?that God and His Word are true. Not because of anything we do, but because of who He is. Not once, not occasionally, but right now and all the time. Sometimes it takes everything moving to notice the thing that doesn't move. Sometimes it takes telling two very different stories to notice how the Truth was exactly the same in both of them. For anyone searching for a solid foundation to cling to, She Reads Truth is a rich and honest Bible-filled journey to finally find permanent in a world that's passing away. …
