    A Good Talk: The Story and Skill of Conversation

    Drawing on over forty years of experience in American letters, Menaker pinpoints the factors that drive and enliven every good conversation: the vagaries (and joys) of subtext; the deeper structure and meaning of conversational flow; the subliminal signals that guide our disclosures and confessions; and the countless other hurdles we must clear along the way. Moving beyond self-help musings and "how to" advice, he has created a stylish, funny, and surprising book: a celebration of "the most exclusively...

  • A Tale of Two Sons: The Inside Story of a Father, His Sons, and a Shocking Murder
    A Tale of Two Sons: The Inside Story of a Father, His Sons, and a Shocking Murder

    Nearly two thousand years ago, Jesus told a simple parable about a family . . . a father and his two sons. It was a story of rebellion, repentance, and unfathomable grace. The Parable of the Prodigal Son still stands out as a crucial lesson about our struggle with sin and dependence on divine salvation. But there is a part of this story that often goes untold. It's a message you need to hear. This powerful book provides fascinating new insight into one of the Bible's most important stories. Using...

It is a chronicle of everyday heroes who just wanted to play hockey happily ever after. It is still unbelievable...
