WOW
After each story I read, I was overwhelmed with emotion and awe. These stories are amazing and beautiful. Wow is all I can say. I read Kim Edwards' novel Memory Keeper's Daughter and really enjoyed it, but this book of short stories is simply phenomenal for the way it challenged my mind and stirred up emotion inside me that I can't explain. Definately read it!

Relax Folks
I wouldn't say that Russians walk around saying horrible vulgar things all the time but to hear a Russian swear is to hear a master at work and if one is to visit any Slavic country, it is useful to know what is being said about you I did a little looking online and saw a few reviews for a book called "Dermo!" and what some of the reviewers say is just silly. They complain that only criminals ...

Recorded Books - how could you?
As a long time "reader" of Recorded Books brand audio recordings, I found Ilyana Kadushin's rendering of this work far below the high standards set by the likes of readers like George Guidall, Barbara Caruso, etc. The premise of the tale is intriguing. A physician, David, delivers his own son on a stormy night and is subsequently surprised by the birth of a second child - a twin daughter with ...

Discipleship Publications International, 1997

An inspirational look into the character of Jesus Christ
Jesus the Same is an incredible study of the character of Jesus that challenges all Christians to imitate his example. Originally the chapters were individual sermons preached in the early 1900's and released under the title The Character of Jesus. However, the message never grows old. I plan on reading it again. It is filled with insight and references to Scripture. This is a must read ...
