A Little Piece of Heaven Is is a heartwarming story of a little girl who wants to go see heaven. After a fun day visiting with her gramma, going for ice cream, playing at the park, and playing with Gramma's doll collection, it was time for Joanna's momma and daddy to pick her up. Gramma and Joanna waited for them while swinging on the old swing in the backyard. It was a beautiful sunny day, with a blue sky full of billowy white clouds. As they watched the clouds float by, Joanna said, "Gramma, I want to go see heaven." Gramma chuckled and answered, "Well, I want to go see heaven too, and we will both go someday." "But I want to go now!" Joanna insisted. Gramma did her best to reason with her. "We have to wait until God is ready for us to go there." Joanna grumbled with pout on her face and her arms crossed sternly and repeated, "But I want to go now!" Gramma wanted to soothe her sweet little five-year-old granddaughter and, after thinking for a minute, asked Joanna, "Would you like me to tell you what the Bible says heaven looks like?" "Oh, yes!" answered Joanna. Joanna listened, oohing and awing, picturing heaven in her mind. Then Gramma asked Joanna if she would like to have a little piece of heaven. A piece she can feel and keep for herself or share with others "Oh yes!" said Joanna. Gramma gave Joanna the best little piece of heaven she could think of. Joanna loved it and did share it with everyone she knew.

With "careful prose and a tone of humble striving" (New York Times Book Review), this revelatory first novel by a cloistered monk traces a young man's search for wisdom among the inhabitants of a Cistercian monastery. In 1973, Paul Seneschal, a shy nineteen-year-old from rural Manitoba, takes flight from the world behind the wrought iron gates of St. Norbert Abbey. Here forty monks grow their own food, wake at three in the morning to pray, and converse largely through a spare but expressive vocabulary of hand signals. Renamed Brother Antoine, Paul strives for wisdom and holiness, yet life within the cloister can't block out all of humanity's foibles. One monk lapses into pyromania; another, a French Canadian, attacks any English-speaker who gets too close; another resembles "a bald Martha Ray." We soon see that even in this rarefied realm, human folly nestles cheek by jowl with the divine. A wise yet refreshingly humorous account of a life of faith, ALL WE KNOW OF HEAVEN offers an a fascinating glimpse into a quiet world that very few people know about.

A child, a teenager, an adult, and his journey of inspiration in a world that has created a new one. A world of unforgettable feelings, a world of unbearable wonder. Pieces of Heaven is an oasis of silence in which the author (myself) was called to hear, to see, and to understand the simplicity of complexity. A manifestation of something greater than anything, in a soul that never rests. The story is a real discovery of what we can have without being asked, but willing to receive. This is the life of an ordinary man whose spiritual experiences gave the answer to a question that the child never knew , the adolescent never asked, and the adult never doubted. But the answer he received guided his entire life, because God never left him alone. And yes, this is me, Gabriel L. Beer, a family man, with education, with a job, with a dream, whose life is filled with happiness and blessed by the light that I touched. And for that I will be grateful forever.

From the author of the acclaimed Dinner with Persephone comes a radically original novel about four women who invite us to imagine the divine anew: what if “a woman’s point of view” were also God’s? Patricia Storace’s Eve begins by telling us her version of what happened in Eden, and by revealing that our familiar constellations conceal other heavens we have never allowed ourselves to see. Each of the four subsequent chapters is the story of one of these new zodiacs, featuring images central to women: a knife, a cauldron, a garden, a pair of embracing lovers. The four women whose stories they tell are Job’s daughter, the Queen of Sheba, a polytheistic cook, and a transformed Sarah, wife of Abraham. Storace brilliantly reimagines the worlds of these women, freeing them from the old tales in which they were trapped and putting them in the foreground of their stories and of the Old Testament itself.
