Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Brooklyn Beginnings is more than the world of Flatbush, Central Park, the Atlantic Ocean, and its many geographic mentions-it is an honest expression of a woman's life beautifully told-every poem is an interior meditation, as though a collaboration with the Divine, harvesting memory, ruminating, observing, recalling anecdotes, revealing a life of reverence. Each line we know to be true with a voice incapable of artifice. I don't know when I've read a work where every fragment radiates so wholesomely-with language so clear-by someone who says everything she thinks- and stories unchanged by time's imagination. This is why I believe Brooklyn Beginnings is a masterwork and a triumph. Grace Cavalieri, Maryland Poet LaureateEdgar Allan Poe once claimed that readers of literature are seeking a "heart revealed." Carolyn Grassi's memoirs in poetry shine because they not only reveal her heart but fascinating glimpses into her soul. Ron Hansen, author of Mariette in Ecstasy and other booksThe evocative mixture of memory, dream, spirit, and beautifully observed nature reveals the trajectory of a sensitive soul, from childhood to maturity. Rich in image, these are poems to which the reader will return time and again. Deborah O'Grady, renowned Photographer & Videographer In these poems the writing is immersive and engaging, eliciting close reading to catch the voice-- a consistent, coherent voice recollecting and meditating upon lived experience. The theme I make out is Spinoza's deus sive natura, or Teilhard de Chardin: the divine manifesting itself in nature. At their finest, as in A Call To The Commons, the poems attain the sort of cosmic imagination or consciousness that we are so much in need of right now. A.David Moody, Professor emeritus University of York (UK), author of Ezra Pound: Poet. Portrait of the Man and His Work. …

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Second Place, Liturgy category Catholic Press Association book awards, 2012 "This little book is a gem!" From Sunday Mass to Monday mayhem: Can the central act of Catholic worship transform our daily lives?  In the United States, only 25% of self-proclaimed Catholics attend Mass on a weekly basis. Many Catholics believe that far more people would attend if only the homilies were better, or the music were more inspiring, or . . . the list goes on. But best-selling authors Fr. Dominic Grassi and Joe Paprocki are convinced that the real problem lies not in the Mass itself but in a lack of understanding of how the Mass prepares each person to live day in and day out as a baptized Catholic Christian. In Living the Mass, Grassi and Paprocki show how each part of the Mass relates to our baptismal call, closing the chasm between Sunday Mass and daily life. This newly revised edition takes into account the changes in the new Roman Missal, yet rather than isolating those texts or commenting on them, the authors have integrated the changes seamlessly into the book. This assimilation ensures that readers stay focused on the core message of the book--how the Mass as a whole changes us--rather than become sidetracked by the Missal's new texts. Ideal for the countless Catholics who attend Mass simply out of habit, for the many who haven't been to Mass in a while, or for anyone seeking to join the Catholic Church, Living the Mass compellingly demonstrates how the one hour spent at Mass on Sunday can truly transform the other 167 hours of the week.…
