As palavras moldam o mundo. Formam vínculos, desvendam mistérios e, quando bem cuidadas, tornam-se lugar de encontro com o Deus que criou o mundo por meio das palavras.Em A verdade oblíqua, o inesquecivel pastor e escritor Eugene H. Peterson denuncia o empobrecimento da linguagem religiosa quando ela se torna tecnica, impessoal ou desconectada do cotidiano. Em contrapartida, ele nos conduz a maneira pela qual Jesus usava as palavras: de maneira indireta, por vezes sinuosa, exigindo dos ouvintes uma imaginaço participativa em meio a conversas vivas e transformadoras.Dividido entre as parabolas e as oraçes de Jesus, este livro revela como a linguagem participa da formaço espiritual, da vida comunitaria e da misso crist. Uma obra essencial para quem deseja recuperar a integridade da fe em um mundo saturado de discursos, mas carente de verdade vivida.

I didnt see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter into one of the most creative periods of my life. Steve JobsBegin Again tells the largely unexplored story of the dozen years Steve Jobs spent building NeXt in the aftermath of his firing from Apple, the company he founded, in 1985. This period would see Jobs at his most creative, vulnerable and intense. It would redefine him as a designer and a leader, ultimately leading to the later resurgence and dominance of Apple following his triumphant return. Yet this crucial period remains woefully under-covered. Award-winning writers Geoffrey Cain and Jimmy Soni change that.Utilising a trove of new material, including dozens of hours of unbroadcast footage of Jobs at NeXTs meetings and retreats, new interviews and unpublished oral histories with Jobs and his colleagues, new first-hand material and countless internal documents, Begin Again is the definitive history of the most remarkable period in the life of Steve Jobs.

Its hard to imagine things getting back to normal after this though. I dont suppose they do from now on, not really. In the kitchen of an old Devon rectory, the daughter who stayed and the son who moved away make conversation with their current and former partners, the milkman, the postman, the care workers. They talk about the weather, the roads, the toaster, the bins. About anything except the simmering tensions between them, as their father lies mortally ill in the next room.Until the unspoken emotions and conflicts of years boil over.Eclipse is a painfully funny, acute and delicate play about our struggle to communicate, in the face of life and of death and our infinite capacity for drinking tea. It was first performed in the Minerva Theatre at Chichester Festival Theatre in 2026, written and directed by John Morton.

In Charyns capable hands, Callas sings againThe TimesThis is a marvelPublishers WeeklyCompelling and dramaticBooklist...the allure of an opera legend is rendered with humanizing gritForeward ReviewsMaria Callas, called La Divina, is widely recognised as the greatest diva who ever lived. Jerome Charyns Callas springs to life as the headstrong, mercurial, and charismatic artist who captivated generations of fans, thrilling audiences with her brilliant performances and defiant personality.Callas was one of the first divas to come from an impoverished background. As an outsider, she was shunned by the Italian opera houses, but through sheer force of will and the power and range of her voice, she broke through the invisible wall to sing at La Scala and headline at the Metropolitan Opera, forging an unforgettable career. Adored by celebrities and statesmen, the notable and notorious alike, her every movement was shadowed by both music critics and gossip columnists until, having lost her voice, she died alone in an opulent, mausoleum-like Paris apartment.In Charyns inimitable style, Maria La Divina humanizes the celebrated diva, revealing the mythical artist as a woman who survived hunger, war, and loneliness to reach the heights of acclaim.
