In the Jewish tradition, going back to Jacob, many fathers have written down whatever wisdom they might have attained in their lives in order to pass along that wisdom to their heirs. It is called an ethical will. Written as a testimony and a testament, in an epistolary format, this book is a compendium of the wisdom of a father, who has spent a lifetime studying the teachings of the Jewish tradition, as well as literary and philosophical traditions of the West. The insights taken from those traditions, which explore the life of the soul, are intended for anyone who has a soul. The book is organized around eighteen words that form the foundations of human life. The number eighteen is taken from the Hebrew word for "life," chai, which has a numerical value of eighteen. Among the words at the heart of these reflections are faith, goodness, responsibility, meaning, gratitude, prayer, love, and others.

How often do we view the Our Father only as a series of petitions rather than as a way to the heart of our heavenly Father? Popular Catholic author Mark Hart says that the prayer Jesus gave us is a “reactionary” prayer—one that calls for a response from us. As he reflects on each of the words and phrases of the Our Father, he emphasizes the intimate relationship that God desires to have with us. Each of the fourteen ways Hart suggests for responding to the Lord’s Prayer begins with the letter “R”—from “remembrance” to “repentance” to “reliance” to “resolve.” This book will give readers a new appreciation for this profound yet simple prayer as well as a deeper understanding of the love that our Father pours out on us, his children. Informal and engaging style will appeal to both younger and older Catholics. Makes a thoughtful Confirmation gift.

Allie Bryant and her identical twin sister Fiona are the best of friends. Although the girls are polar opposites at school, Fiona a popular athlete and Allie an introverted scholar, they have an unbreakable bond that no one outside of their own world could understand. One terrible night, Fiona is stolen from Allie's life. Fate and poor choices cost Fiona the ultimate price. Allie is left alone to reenter the world without Fiona's support. Everything Allie thought she knew about herself, her parents, and her twin comes into question. When she discovers Fiona's hidden journal, Allie realizes that Fiona had hidden many secrets. She comes to the frightening realization that she didn't know Fiona nearly as well as she thought. The mystery surrounding her sister's life and choices weighs heavily on Allie as she journeys through her grief. Her parents' struggle makes her own pain almost insurmountable, if it weren't for an unexpected friendship Allie finds with a young man. Shaun has found peace with a similar loss in his life and helps Allie find her way through the dark. In spite of chaos and loss, Allie finds the value of family, friendship, and her own gifts. Following Allie through her first year without her sister, The Long Goodbye asks the question, how does one continue to live without the person they lived for?

Before her death in 1985 at the age of fifty-one, Marian Engel had published seven novels, two collections of short stories, and numerous essays and articles. Despite this impressive output and various literary honours, including a Governor General's Award for her novel Bear, Engel's writing has not received the critical attention it deserves. A comprehensive study of Engel's body of work, Lifelines fills a major gap in Canadian literary criticism.
