The History of Eternity by James E. Winder (7 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

You cannot help but wonder what and why you are. The History of Eternity is a book that again and again answers these questions, as it celebrates the tragic joy of wonder at the enigma of your existence. There will always be a clamoring after elusive fact. There will always be a hankering for some durable theory that will explain the fact. There will always be an inability to match the one wholly with the other. Because something is always left out, there will always persist a stubbornly invisible and intractable remainder. And this remainder, this dark matter behind every thought, behind every desire, behind every joy, behind every sorrow, will continue to populate your universe with wonder. Read this book, if you will, and share that wonder. You are born into a conspiracy of significance, already entangled with your equally lonely others. The history of eternity, the tension between nowhere and now here, defines the struggle between the life you are living now and whatever there may be of the life to come. The History of Eternity is a series of broken elegies to those who have mattered, to their moments and your moments, to their sanity and your sanity, to their madness and your madness. The History of Eternity is one man's meditation on the reverberating shock of his encounter with Henry Adams, Aristotle, Augustine, Bach, Balzac, Beckett, Bergson, Bloch, Boehme, Bonhoeffer, Cervantes, Chekhov, Cicero, Claudel, Dante, Darwin, Derrida, Emily Dickinson, Dostoevsky, Eckhart, Emerson, Ezekiel, Faulkner, Gide, Goethe, Heraclitus, Herodotus, Hume, Isaiah, Henry James, Jeremiah, Samuel Johnson, Kafka, Kierkegaard, D.H.

Hostel Hell: Homeless - a year spent with crazies, druggies, prostitutes, con men, gangsters and some really great people by Robert Leslie (230 Reviews)    Price verified 14 hours ago

Hostel Hell, a real life story; my year of No Fixed Address spent with crooks, crazies, druggies, con men, prostitutes, streetwise survivors and a surprising number of really decent people. Previously a reasonably prosperous and successful business man, I was completely unprepared when an unwanted divorce led to the loss of my house and business, bringing on stress, depression, low self-esteem and, I'm ashamed to say, heavy drinking. But for all the feelings of frustration, inadequacy and hopelessness there were some compensations. I met a rich array of people, out-and-out crazies, druggies, smart crooks, devious prostitutes and heard some amazing stories. And to my great surprise a number of these individuals were kind, friendly and helpful. The experience changed my politics and view of the world. I wouldn't want to repeat it but am wiser for it. "Robert Leslie writes autobiografically about his time of homelessness, with much wit and humour, intelligence and a good dose of irony. But also with honesty, humbleness and warmth. One can feel that the very writing helped him get through the difficult, sometimes desperate experience of homelessness. As a writer he has found his very own, personal style, mostly a pleasure to read." "I found this a very entertaining and insightful book about homelessness and hostel life." "A very thought provoking yet entertaining read."
