Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A reissue of the 1949 American classic Sarah by Margueritte Harmon Bro. "Sarah will carry off all the romantics and bookworms who love a tale that enfolds them. Sarah is practically Russian in its complexity and scope compared with today's often simplistic plots. Sarah is the heroine, but Harmon Bro's society is a major player in the plot and texture of the novel: the tumultuous years from before the First World War to the early 1920s. Harmon Bro's prose is from another era too. No-nonsense and spare in some ways: -- The skirt frankly showed her ankles and an inch or two more. -- At other times, it's hilariously charming for an old crone reviewer, but probably riveting for intended readers. . . Harmon Bro's style should be part of young readers' experience. The story of Sarah growing from little girl to a woman is well worth telling. She grows up battling her conscience, beginning with her deceased father's wishes of what she should do with her life. Combined with life-and-death struggles for family and friends at home and at war, her experiences as a concert pianist for the troops in Europe and, later, conflicting pressures about her musical career, make this period piece altogether appropriate for eager readers today. -- The National Post. …

Paperback. Condition: Good. "The greatest saint of modern times" said Pope Pius X back in 1914, speaking of St. Thérèse of Lisieux. And, in 1997, Pope John Paul II declared ThTrFse a Doctor of the Church, citing the timeliness of her doctrine and the wisdom and practicality with which she grasped the Gospel message. Why all this acclaim for Thérèse, who was only a little middle-class girl from France at the end of the 19th century? The Centenary of her death, 1897-1997, was celebrated all over the globe. Why is Thérèse so universally loved, invoked and imitated by people from all walks of life in every country in the world? Fr. Bernard Bro, director of the French publishing house, +ditions du Cerf, and a key figure in publishing the definitive editions of Thérèse's writings, decided to set forth those aspects of her life, personality, and writing that do indeed mark Thérèse of Lisieux as one of the truly great exponents of Catholic doctrine. What she offers in her life and in her writing, he claims, is "one of the most certain and simplest evangelical shortcuts ever proposed". What we find in her words is a "struggle between darkness and faith, humor and sadness, realism and pretense, maturity and childhood". The life, words, and texts of Thérèse are of an astonishing freshness, accuracy, immediacy, strength, and genius. According to Bro, Thérèse does not flinch before the important questions everyone must face: Why death? How can we continue in hope when suffering and pain threaten to overwhelm us? How can we remain faithful-and joyful--when we are shaken by the circumstances of our life? And first of all, how are we to love? Thérèse answered these questions both by her life and through her writing. Illustrated with many photos.…
