During the darkest, most difficult, and most painful days of my life-injured at work, loss of job, inability to do the usual work, crisis at home with an injured and aging mother to support, feeling weak and helpless-God reminded me of King David encouraging himself in the Lord. As I looked back over my life, I saw I had a lot to be thankful for, because God is always faithful, He is and will always be the great I Am, and a help in our troubles. He will remain the stability of our times and life, and with that blessed assurance, we can truly face tomorrow without fear but with trust, walk on in obedience, and prepare the way for His return.

Looking Back on Tomorrow is a Life Story filled with the personal memories and recollections of the author. Within each of the early chapters, the author captures his emotions and strongest feelings - collected and compiled during the many years he lived in Brooklyn, New York City and later in New Yorks Catskill Mountains. Covering this time span, the author manages to express his observations and experiences in verse of great depth, impact and insight. These are used as a foundation with which he looks forward and makes some stark predictions about what tomorrow may hold in store - both for himself as well as for his loved ones. In this book, the authors everyday life amongst his closest family and friends was used as the basis for numerous international misadventures. These tales are not only fascinating and pleasurable to read, but are guaranteed to make the reader deeply reflect. In fact, some may find themselves laughing out loud at one escapade while tearing-up at another - sometimes even doing both simultaneously! It is a remarkable book for people of all ages and genres; it has a timeless appeal that is both enjoyable and unforgettable.

A daring masterwork by Javier Marias: "Spain's most subtle and gifted writer." (The Boston Globe) Part spy novel, part romance, part Henry James, Your Face Tomorrow is a wholly remarkable display of the immense gifts of Javier Marias. With Fever and Spear, Volume One of his unfolding novel Your Face Tomorrow, he returns us to the rarified world of Oxford (the delightful setting of All Souls and Dark Back of Time), while introducing us to territory entirely new--espionage. Our hero, Jaime Deza, separated from his wife in Madrid, is a bit adrift in London until his old friend Sir Peter Wheeler—retired Oxford don and semi-retired master spy—recruits him for a new career in British Intelligence. Deza possesses a rare gift for seeing behind the masks people wear. He is soon observing interviews conducted by Her Majesty's secret service: variously shady international businessmen one day, would-be coup leaders the next. Seductively, this metaphysical thriller explores past, present, and future in the ever-more-perilous 21st century. This compelling and enigmatic tour de force from one of Europe's greatest writers continues with Volume Two, Dance and Dream.

Doctor Eleanor Sutherland is urgently summoned back to the family home, by her Senior Police Officer father. To her horror, with Ministerial approval she was made sole heir to the estate of the now deceased British MP, Nigel Trevisa. Her father reveals a story of covert data gathering on Nigel Trevisa. How did he achieve high office? Why did his sexual predatory tendencies go unpunished? Where did the money come from to acquire a grand lifestyle? His task turned into an obsession as the questions went unanswered. Together with trusted family and friends, Eleanor yields to her father’s request if only to untangle herself from his spooky world. As the pace accelerates, the vengefulness and brutality of Trevisa’s only offspring Cassandra, comes as a complete shock to all. In Eleanor’s battle to stay alive she not only takes on the persona of someone brave and fearless, but places her trust in one man. This makes her question if cutting herself off from emotional involvement is a good idea, as they become romantically closer. In an explosive double-headed climax three people will not survive the ordeal.

The inspirational book, No Clouds Tomorrow by Carol E. Crain, contains many of her songs, poems, and writings that will lift readers’ spirits and encourage those suffering from depression and hurtful memories. She also writes about reaching out to others by sending Envelope Hugs by mail. In her poem “It’s Hard to Celebrate Father’s Day,” she wrote, “It’s hard to celebrate Father’s Day / For a child who father is away / Unavailable and disconnected / Showing no love / To a child he’s rejected.” In “Return with me, Jesus,” she wrote, “Return with me, Jesus, / To days that are past. / Walk down roads where I’ve been. / Give me peace that will last.” The book’s title, No Clouds Tomorrow, came from these lines Carol wrote: “Don’t let your yesterdays ruin today. / Don’t let today / Put a cloud on tomorrow.” In her article about sending Envelope Hugs by mail, she writes, “I don’t type my notes and letters or use e-mail. I write my letters, my ‘Envelope Hugs,’ in longhand. I think this means more in a day of e-mail and junk mail. ... I suppose people hesitate to reach out to others because sometimes no words seem adequate. But human words are all we have, and I hope God can use things I share in envelopes to ease pain.” In No Clouds Tomorrow, she tells about some responses to her Envelope Hugs. Carol E. Crain passed on in 2019, but her inspiring songs, poems, and writings are timeless and still “speak” today, bringing comfort, healing, and inspiration to readers.

For the Sake of My Children is a book of poetry inspired by one woman's challenges with relationships and motherhood. The poems inside will bring readers from anger and fear toward feelings of wonder at the face of God as they contemplate the experiences of a woman motivated in all things to keep her children safe. Born in Jamaica, Yvonne was raised by her grandparents. She is a proud mother of six children. She went to the college of hard knocks called life. She has been knocked down several times, but for the sake of her children, she found herself asking God for wisdom to know that she would overcome. Yvonne started writing when she was abandoned by her first husband with their children while he rode off into the sunset and started another family. She completed a course in community development, then worked in several communities across Jamaica. In 1999, she was laid off. Faced with the fear of losing their home and splitting up her children, she went to court seeking the judge's assistance in getting child support; only to have a high-court judge tell her to send her children to the poorhouse. It was only by the grace of God that Yvonne did not lose her mind. She wants her children to know that people can be cruel, but she holds onto the hope that they will have a much brighter future. Her faith in God remains strong even after the death of her daughter, Jodi. She still sings songs of praise to God and shows her children what it is to believe through it all!

This collection of simple poetry is a pleasant journey of deeper self-awareness, and gratitude, on the road to self-discovery. You will learn a little more of how to find and fully appreciate the joy and fun in life as the topics of love, gratitude, hope and inspiration are more deeply explored. God gives us strength through the struggle between good and evil. In this struggle is where the best in life is found. The more we look the more we begin to clearly see that the joys in life abound. If we are lucky, God lets us all start out our lives with a strong sense of curiosity, while knowing that we are loved. We find the best in life by strengthening three aspects of our faith. The strength of our faith in God, the strength of our faith in others and the strength of our faith in ourselves. Both our love and our faith are strengthened by never giving up. At some point in our lives, many of us come to realize that it is the strength we find in the selfless love of Jesus Christ that is all that's held us up. The greatest value in the Christian life is the gift of eternal life! The second greatest value in the Christian life is in the living of it! Curtis H. West, M.L.S. The journey of self-discovery can be frightening, exhilarating, confusing, liberating, and often best undertaken accompanied by a caring voice. Charles Preston's poetry shiningly serves as such a voice for all who wish to begin a journey of their own. Suzanne Beeson, Ph.D., HSPP

This is a book about the fictional life of Maxie Blum. It is a view of the world through the eyes of this fictional character. Maxie comes to the conclusion that he has a messianic role that only he can accomplish, to salvage the world from some indeterminate fate he believes is unacceptable. Marching to the beat of some mysterious inner drummer, he seeks a heroic role that will realize his near divinity. This book details how he copes with the messy realities of an actual life, always searching to find a satisfactory resolution to his dreams. There are women, marriages, and children as well as the travails of the working world. He finds his redemption and salvation not in the physical world that may lead only to small successes of some satisfaction but in the arms of a woman from his youth who haunts his dreams. This work is that love story, how we got there, and what we do then, having arrived in paradise without a crucifixion.
