The book is the first full-length text on Anthony Burgess's fiction
in a generation, and offers a radical and innovative way of
understanding the extensive literary achievements of one of the
twentieth century's most innovative authors. This book explores
Burgess's dazzlingly diverse range of novels through the one key
theme which links them all - the artistic process itself. Borrowing
from Nietzsche's aesthetic dichotomy of Apollo and Dionysus, the
book uncovers the protracted evolution of Burgess's fiction and
offers a unifying theory which links his early postcolonial fiction
chronologically, via his modernist experiments like A Clockwork
Orange and Nothing Like The Sun, to his late classics Mozart and
the Wolfgang and A Dead Man in Deptford. This volume clarifies
Burgess's seminal role as both late modernist and early
postmodernist, and lucidly unveils the legacy of England's most
mercurial novelist.

Collected here are poems by one of Georgia's most intriguing and
talented poets of the twentieth century. Byron Herbert Reece was
born in Union County, Georgia, in 1917 and authored four volumes of
poems and two novels during his short lifetime. Until now, many of
his poems, originally published in the 1940s and 1950s, have been
out of print. Reece, who faithfully assumed responsibility for his
family's farm when his parents became ill, was never a poet of the
academic ivory tower. Indeed, he rebelled against the rising New
Criticism associated with the Vanderbilt Fugitives, the elite of
southern poetry at that time. Reece's work reflects both the
devastating impact of his parents' death from tuberculosis and his
own affliction with the disease, which caused him to distance
himself from others: ""A solitary thing am I / Upon the roads of
rust and flame / That thin at sunset to the air."" Reece was also
preoccupied with his ambivalence toward the farm, which sustained
his solitude yet took time away from his writing: ""In the far,
dark woods go roving / And find there to match your mood / A
kindred spirit moving / Where the wild winds blow in the wood.""
Reece's poetry is resonant and contemplative, and Jim Clark has
included here works that speak for the true grace of Reece's
talent. In addition, Clark's attentive introduction should bring
increased interest to this notable southern poet.

Apostolic presbyters."The Narrow Way" a Handbook on Discipleship
takes a 'raw' convert into a lifestyle of discipleship beginning
with his conversion and water baptism into a thorough training of
Jesus' Character (some 50 aspects) to develop proper motives and
attitudes. The disciple learns not only the Scriptural values of
every aspect of the narrow way, but is also trained to strengthen
them using the sixteen disciplines the early church practiced to
allow the salvation experience to be enhanced - spirit, soul and
body. The goal, of course, for every disciple is to serve God; but
in the normal church experience that follows the American culture;
it is usually a "fast track" that results in an uninformed and
ill-prepared "leader" that ninety-five time out of one hundred -
fails; usually causing the ill-trained member to leave the church
and often his Lord. The book discusses the aspects and processes
from which come true leaders-servants that are ready for Kingdom
living.
If you only read this introduction I want you to know that things
do happen for a reason, even if we do not know why. I believe
people are put into our lives and it's up to us to make the most of
those encounters. And, that you can find love within the most
troubling times or darkest moments in your life, as well as in the
lives of others. This is the story of a chance meeting and my
commitment to do what that voice in my head, as well as my heart,
said was the right thing to do. I would not wish the last year of
Candy's life on anyone. She lived through "hell on earth," the
death of her unborn child, being diagnosed with cancer, then
discovering more about herself, her "real" friends, and the family
she never knew she had.

life stages and transitions * how to heal and transform
relationships * the differences between ceremony and ritual * the

"In this autobiographical Best in Hollywood, you can share with me
the golden age of Hollywood when she had unequaled world class. Now
solidly in my eighties, I'm one of the few living actors who can
hope to tell of the past glory and glamour of Hollywood as she
really was way back when. This was the Hollywood where I lived,
loved, and worked during the time when she was the ruling queen.
This was the time of a wonderful movie industry where genuine
actors and actresses created truly entertaining musicals, comedies,
dramas, and action for an eager movie-going public. Even in those
glorious golden days of Hollywood, my attempt to be a big winner
was never all sunglasses and autographs. I tell here how I survived
in a sometimes cruel town where a lifelong dream can be fulfilled
or broken in a heartbeat. I didn't escape without my share of
scars. I've written this book for those who might enjoy reading
about the experiences of a very lucky ragtag orphan from Kentucky.
I thank God for the opportunities given me. I was blessed to be
adopted and to be given both a desire to work hard and, just as
important, a love of fishing. I've been in a few scraps along the
way, but I've done my level best to become a successful actor and
to grow as a person. If you're curious about the good, the bad, and
the beautiful of Hollywood-including The Dukes of Hazzard and many
other adventures-it's all in this book. I simply tell my story as
I've lived it. I hope you enjoy it." -James Best.
