<p>A mythical jewel of a story… A true story told on a beach in Yucatan, A Shadow tells Stephanie's story but it was also the story of the golden time. Its nostalgia sings like cicadas in the heat.</p><p>An American ‘Under Milkwood’, this distilled novel of the Sixties evokes the sounds, music and optimism on the free-wheelin streets and parks of Coconut Grove. You can hear Bob Dylan still strumming acoustic; smoke a joint with Fred Neil; and Everybody’s Talkin is carried on the wind.</p><p>Stephanie, a young hairdresser living in lodgings finds herself pregnant. Refused help from her hard Catholic mother in New York, unable to abort her baby, she accepts the kindness of Miriam, her Jewish landlady, whose own barren life spills into compassionate assistance for the daughter she never had.</p><p>The poignancy of its ending, its generosity and acceptance, echoes the bitter disappointment of those of us who hoped for so much more, but who remember its joy, and its promise, as though untarnished by time.</p>
<span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong>Perfect For Christian Spouses Looking For Help With The "Spark"</strong>, November 3, 2008</span> <div style="margin-bottom:.5em;"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top">By </td><td><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A3MZ97KM2CI5MU/ref=cm_cr_dp_pdp"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Daniel Hall <span style="white-space:nowrap;">"www.speakerscruisefree.com"<span class="swSprite s_chevron custPopRight"></span></span></span></a> (Corpus Christi, TX USA) <br /></td></tr></tbody></table></div> My wife saw me reading Husband-ry 101 and wanted to know what I was learning (in a joking way). I told her that I was learning a lot about "keeping the spark alive" in marriage from a regular man (not a psychologist or couch counselor). The premise of Mike's book is that much of the success (or failure) in a marriage is due to communication between the spouses. <br /><br />This book is great for Christian couples and perfect for church newlywed classes. Good thing too, I understand you can customize Mike's book (possible with this publisher) to make his book more personalized with your church name and scriptures inside...a big hit in marriage classes. <br /><br />Daniel Hall <br />Author, Speak On Cruise Ships: 8 Easy Steps to a Lifetime of FREE Luxury Cruises <br />http://www.SpeakersCruiseFree.com<br /><br />*********************************<br /><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top"><br /></td><td><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/AB28YA3E3NGFH/ref=cm_cr_dp_pdp"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Marybeth <span style="white-space:nowrap;">Baribeau<span class="swSprite s_chevron custPopRight"></span></span></span></a> (West Chester, Ohio)</td></tr></tbody></table><div class="tiny" style="margin-bottom:.5em;"> <strong><span class="h3color tiny">This review is from: </span><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Husband-ry-101-Husband-Spouse-Always/dp/0741417456/ref=cm_cr_dp_orig_subj">Husband-ry 101: How to Train Your Husband to be the Spouse You've Always Wanted Him to Be (Paperback)</a></strong> </div> Husbandry - 101 was an excellent book for women and men alike. I couldn't put it down. My husband enjoyed it almost as much as I did. Michael McCann captures topics that people laugh about, cry about and agonize over. My friends and I have not stopped talking about it for over two weeks! We have added it to our book review club. Mr. McCann cannot write the sequel fast enough for me! <br /><br />*********************************<br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A2N1TTZ771W5VU/ref=cm_cr_pr_pdp"><span style="font-weight:bold;">E. <span style="white-space:nowrap;">Galamb</span></span></a><br /> <div class="tiny" style="margin-bottom:.5em;"> <strong><span class="h3color tiny">This review is from: </span><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Husband-ry-101-Husband-Spouse-Always/dp/0741417456/ref=cm_cr_pr_orig_subj">Husband-ry 101: How to Train Your Husband to be the Spouse You've Always Wanted Him to Be (Paperback)</a></strong> </div> I needed to read this book before my wife got her hands on it. The purpose was to strike out the prose that would provide the wrong message. Ladies, you can believe 99.44% of the book. Men are predictable, women are not. For this reason, the book provides amazing insight into what makes men tick. Since men are not identical, there will be one or two things that your husband will not agree with Mr. McCann. My wife knows that if I have been out of town for a few days, the last place I want to go is to a restaurant to talk. I need some home cooking. Read and study the book and you will have the husband you always wanted. I can't wait for Husband-ry 102.
