"A herd of independent minds," Harold Roseberg once labelled his fellow intellectuals. They were, and are, as this book shows, a special and fascinating group, including literary critics like Lionel Trilling, Alfred Kazin, Irving Howe, Leslie Fiedler, Philip Rahv, and William Phillips; social scientists like Nathan Glazer; art critics and historians Clement Greenberg, Harold Rrosenberg, and Meyer Schapiro; novelist Saul Bellow; and political journalists Irving Kristol and Norman Podhoretz. Their story winds through nearly all of the crucial intellectual and political events of the last decades, as well as through the major academic institutions of the nation and the editorial boards of such important journals as Partisan Review, Commentary, Dissent, The Public Interest, and The New York Review of Books. So deeply entrenched in our intellectual establishment are these people that it's easy to forget that most grew up onthe edge of American society--poor, Jewish, the children of immigrants. Prodigal Sons retraces their common past, from their New York City ghetto upbringing and education at Columbia and City College through their radicalization in the '30s to their preeminence in the postwar literary and academic world. The book examines their youthful efforts to ignore their Jewish heritage and their later rediscovery of this heritage in the wake of the Holocaust. It shows how they moved toward the liberal center during the Cold War and how the group fragmented in the 1960s, when some turned toward the right, becoming key figures in the Neo-Conservative movement of the 1970s and '80s. As Bloom points out, there is no single typical New York intellectual; nor did they share all their ideas. This book is concerned with how the community came to be formed, and what it thought important, how and why it moved and changed, and why it ultimately came undone. We learn some of the ways in which intellectuals function and justify their own places and a great deal about the political and cultural landscape over which New York intellectuals passed. A fascinating portrait of New York intellectual life over the past half-century ·Based on interviews with many of the leading figures and 10 years of extensive research ·Takes us behind the scenes at Commentary, Partisan Review, The Public Interest and other influential publications

Three generations of Koopmans live-uneasily-under the same roof of a farm house twenty miles from the center of Holy Cross, Iowa. Thirty-year-old William Koopman needs to move out. But Dad wanted him on the farm after Grandpa died, so William stayed, married his girl Marcy, and even brought her to the farmhouse to live. The poor girl made it a year before she bolted at the end of a rough winter. A week after Marcy leaves, William's shiftless younger brother John returns home. The prodigal son with no money in his wallet, but lots of ideas to make it all back in Holy Cross. If they all survive this rainy growing season on the farm, it will truly be a miracle.

With over a million copies sold, this classic work is essential reading for all who ask, “Where has my struggle led me?” A chance encounter with a reproduction of Rembrandt’s The Return of the Prodigal Son catapulted Henri Nouwen on an unforgettable spiritual adventure. Here he shares the deeply personal and resonant meditation that led him to discover the place within where God has chosen to dwell. As Nouwen reflects on Rembrandt’s painting in light of his own life journey, he evokes a powerful drama of the classic parable in a rich, captivating way that is sure to reverberate in the hearts of readers. Nouwen probes the several movements of the parable: the younger son’s return, the father’s restoration of sonship, the elder son’s resentfulness, and the father’s compassion. The themes of homecoming, affirmation, and reconciliation will be newly discovered by all who have known loneliness, dejection, jealousy, or anger. The challenge to love as God loves, and to be loved as God’s beloved, will be seen as the ultimate revelation of the parable known to Christians throughout time, and is here represented with a vigor and power fresh for our times.

The Parable of the Prodigal Son is one of the most read and preached parables of our Lord Jesus Christ. This Parable focuses on The Father, His House and His two Sons. We know that the Father was a good man, for the scripture declares a good man leaves and inheritance for his children's children. Many who expound on this passage focus on The Son who prematurely took his inheritances, wasted it on riotous living, lost his "substance" and wound up in the Pig Pen Motel. Perhaps this is why this parable is called the "Parable of The Prodigal Son." Others focus on the Father and his relentless love for his son. The father who released the inheritance to his Son knowing that it was premature, the father who let his son leave without confrontation, the father who knew his son would return and actually ran out to meet him before he got back to the house, and the father who threw an elaborate party for his rebellious but now repentant son.However in this powerful presentation Pastor Valerie Russell focuses on The Prodigals Brother. Her spirit-led insights will captivate you and draw you closer into understanding the heart of God for all of His Children. After reading this book you will understand that God really does not play favorites and there is no need for believers to be envious or jealous of one another. You will learn that whose you are, is more important that who you are and that who you are, is more important that what you have. Finally you will come away with the understanding that because you are in the Father's house everything he has is yours, it always has been and it always will be.
