In Toe Holds in the Light, Christine Van Brunt connects readers to the breathtaking beauty that is everywhere. Through her poetry, Christine is able to show that the things that slow us down are gifts and that slowing down is a gift in itself. These poems seek to give authentic voice to things people may seldom speak of or may not know how to speak of. They seek to validate human emotions; to remove unproductive, unnecessary, and undeserved shame and guilt; to validate souls striving to love and believe in themselves; to validate souls contending with controlling others who-in the name of love-would manipulate them and wall them in according to their own predefinitions. 'Christine Van Brunt is that rare kind of poet who paints unforgettable pictures with words that allow you to see your relationships, your everyday tasks, and Mother Nature in an entirely new light. Reading her poetry reawakens you to the wonders of being alive and leaves you feeling more visible and validated as a human being.' Terry Jean Taylor, President Your Recipe For Living Coach, LLC 'Permeated by thoughtful observation and punctuated with love, Toe Holds ponders-and conjoins-the mundane and profound elements of a life well lived. Here is the work of a muse whose mastery provides access for all.' John T. Noble Ph.D. (cand.) Hebrew Bible Harvard University
From the bestselling, award-winning author of Bad Land comes a powerful novel set in Seattle in 1999, a city troubled by rioting anarchists, vanishing children, and the discovery of an al-Qaeda operative. “A tour de force.” —The Washington Post Book World Jonathan Raban’s powerful novel is set in Seattle at the height of its infatuation with the virtual. It’s a place that attracts immigrants. One of these is Tom Janeway, a bookish Hungarian-born Englishman who makes his living commenting on American mores on NPR. Another, who calls himself Chick, is a frenetically industrious illegal alien from China who makes his living any way he can. Through a series of extraordinary but chillingly plausible events, the paths of these newcomers converge. Tom is uprooted from his marriage and must learn to father his endearing eight-year old son part-time. Chick claws his way up from exploited to exploiter. Meanwhile Seattle is a city on the brink. Savage and tender, visionary and addictively entertaining, Waxwings is a major achievement.
