Making it in Hell, says Bruce Jackson, is the spirit behind the sixty-five work songs gathered in this eloquent dispatch from a brutal era of prison life in the Deep South. Through engagingly documented song arrangements and profiles of their singers, Jackson shows how such pieces as "Hammer Ring," "Ration Blues," "Yellow Gal," and "Jody's Got My Wife and Gone" are like no other folk music forms: they are distinctly African in heritage, diminished in power and meaning outside their prison context, and used exclusively by black convicts. The songs helped workers through the rigors of cane cutting, logging, and cotton picking. Perhaps most important, they helped resolve the men's hopes and longings and allowed them a subtle outlet for grievances they could never voice when face-to-face with their jailers.
In the middle of the strangest storm in history an airliner crashes into the ocean and only three young people survive - a brother and his two sisters. But they are not together, and the ocean is not on Earth. Alex, Amanda, and Tori Lancaster have entered Boreth, a world of ancient devastation and deep evil. Through this world they must travel with every choice taking them closer either to endless night or overwhelming glory. But this journey is not for them alone ... it’s for all those who are lost and can’t find their way home. What readers say: “Your book irrevocably shaped my understanding of the power of literature. The allegory, the imagery both vicious and blindly beautiful, the way you depicted trauma and betrayal and forgiveness and the deep, abiding capital-L Love - I have carried that with me as the standard to which I have held all other works of fantasy/speculative fiction. It’s still the most profound work of fiction I’ve ever read.” "In this novel, Coleman Luck accomplishes one of the most difficult tasks a writer can undertake -- to create a completely fresh, new and very believable world. The book is an excellent read -- imaginative and fast paced and full of wondrous, subtle connections with the finest developments in Christian thought. So good it seems like it came from Lewis, Tolkien or one of the other great masters. A must!" “I've NEVER read any book of any kind that took me on such an emotional and spiritual journey. At times I couldn't put it down, other times I HAD to, just to catch my breath. There were times that I felt MY faith was being put to the test. Other times I began to worry about the author's faith. But at the end of the day, I've never read a more beautiful story of redemption, love and faith. And I can't wait for Mountaincry!” (A previous version of Wind Sunday was published under the title Angel Fall.)
“She was killing herself slowly, and this obsession with the war had to stop.” How can one man cope when his true love is a woman of great destiny? “The people are her purpose and she is my purpose.” The Wind of Change follows the intersecting fates of Francois and Zola as they struggle with the injustices of life and inconsistencies of love in a world where children are dying. Within the Frenchman’s narrative and declarations of love lies the tragic tale of the children of war-torn Africa and the personal cost of civil war and armed conflict, of torture, murder, resistance, and forgiveness. Set in the days of Nelson Mandela’s release from incarceration, it brings to life the Pan-African ideals of the 60s through the journey of a young woman who would be queen to unite and bring peace to all of Africa. If you imagine a future can you make it real? Can you make a difference? If you give from your heart, can you make the wind change?
