Four Politicians were engaged in a fierce political contest for the Presidential ticket of a big and dominant political party in an African nation. Out of the four, only one politician was adjudged to be morally upright by his own political opponents. In spite of all the wicked devices and demonic arrows thrown at the only upright politician by his wicked opponents, he emerged the winner of the contest.The only upright politician is a fictional peep into the value preferences of a society perceived by many as degenerating in moral values. This book uses political contest for power and position to illustrate the extent of moral degeneration in a potentially great nation stifled by a political system that seemingly deliberately marginalizes the morally upright in its leadership selection process.This book depicts an arguable exception where a politician judged as being upright in character and conduct by his own political enemies triumphs over his morally depraved opponents through righteousness and absolute trust in the Almighty God who rules over the affairs of men.This story is a story of the triumph of good over evil, light over darkness, righteousness over sin and wickedness.

The Scarlet Letter is an 1850 romantic work of fiction in a historical setting, written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, and is considered to be his magnum opus. Set in 17th-century Puritan Boston, Massachusetts, during the years 1642 to 1649, it tells the story of Hester Prynne, who conceives a daughter through an affair and struggles to create a new life of repentance and dignity. Throughout the book, Hawthorne explores themes of legalism, sin, and guilt.The experience of Hester and Dimmesdale recalls the story of Adam and Eve because, in both cases, sin results in expulsion and suffering. But it also results in knowledge specifically, in knowledge of what it means to be immoral. For Hester, the Scarlet Letter is a physical manifestation of her sin and reminder of her painful solitude. She contemplates casting it off to obtain her freedom from an oppressive society and a checkered past as well as the absence of God.

After World War 2, British colonial countries like Southern Rhodesia were abuzz with renewed energy and excitement for the future, as the language and culture were British, yet the country, unlike Blighty, was tropical with interesting and different geology, archaeology, fauna, flora and people, with fantastic agricultural and mining potential for the rapidly expanding population. The warm, sunny climate reflected a gloriously happy disposition amongst its people.Willie MacDougall was born under these warm, umbrella-blue skies and enjoyed growing up in a carefree environment where friends and family had value. Whether it was cycling to school and back; sleeping in a tree house; camping in the Matopos Hills or Khami Ruins; going by steam train to the Victoria Falls; enduring long holiday trips to South Africa; exploring disused gold mines; horse riding; or playing the bagpipes, it always involved friends and family.Inevitably the political landscape changed, and the white bubble was unsustainable. Jake, his elder brother and friends were progressively enlisted to fight insurgents on the border. Ultimately, though, it was when the family of his first real love, Hazel, decided to move to Cape Town that he also fully understood his future direction: to go to South Africa, get a degree and work as a biologist.

Blackmail, kidnapping, and murder were the tools used by gentlemanly villains to cover the tracks of a crime that netted millions of pounds annually for almost two decades. The story unfolds through the eyes of Johnny Cobbold, a City of London wine shipper who is under continuous threat and perceived to hold the key that could reveal the crime and the identity of its perpetrators. Gripping and tantalising to the last, the narrative also reveals fascinating, little-known facts about wine and London itself.

Le combat spirituel a souvent été mal compris. Pense comme une lutte offensive contre des puissances extérieures, il est devenu pour beaucoup une activité fébrile, parfois obsessionnelle, qui finit par accorder a l adversaire la place que la croix lui a retiree.Ce livre propose un autre regard.A partir des Ecritures lues dans leur substrat hebraique et grec, il deploie une lecture du combat de la foi qui prend racine dans la cosmologie meme de la Creation la separation des eaux, la lumiere qui descend d en haut, le souffle qui distingue l homme et trouve sa pleine mesure dans la victoire accomplie du Christ. Mensonge, peur, identite fausse, heritages generationnels autant de fronts que l auteur traverse, non pour les armer de mots nouveaux, mais pour les ramener a leur seul antidote un regard tourne vers le haut, ancre dans ce qui est deja accompli.Etude apres etude, a travers la figure de Mephiboscheth, les sept jours de la Genese, la genealogie de Matthieu, la rencontre de Bethesda, c est un meme fil qui se deroule non plus combattre pour vaincre, mais demeurer dans la victoire. La sobre vigilance du shabbat habite.Un livre de patience, de discernement et de paix.

Planet NowhereFanfiction de la serie The Middle inspiree de l univers de Brick Heck par Mr Lampert AlexandreDans un univers situe bien au-dela de notre galaxie, Planet Nowhere explore un monde etrange, ancien et profondement mysterieux, dont l origine echappe a toute memoire connue. Guide par la celebre ligne d ouverture que Brick lit a Axl : "Au-dela de notre galaxie, au-dela de notre temps, au-dela de notre memoire collective, il existe une planete d origine curieuse", le recit plonge le lecteur dans une epopee monumentale de pres de neuf cents pages.L histoire suit plusieurs protagonistes confrontes a une planete instable, marquee par des civilisations disparues, des conflits anciens et des forces qui depassent l entendement humain. A travers explorations, revelations et alliances improbables, les heros decouvrent que Planet Nowhere n est pas seulement un lieu, mais un carrefour cosmique ou se jouent des enjeux bien plus vastes que leur propre survie.Entre mystere, aventure, drame et emerveillement, le roman developpe une mythologie riche, inspiree des fragments evoques dans The Middle, mais etendue en une saga complete : peuples enigmatique, technologies oubliees, secrets enfouis et une quete qui remet en question la nature meme du temps et de la memoire.Planet Nowhere est a la fois un hommage a l imagination de Brick Heck et une oeuvre independante, dense et immersive, qui transforme une simple reference humoristique de la serie en un univers epique et coherent.
