1. Is It Good for the Jews? More Stories from the Old Country and the New (Large Print 16pt) - Adam Biro

Largeprint (Paperback) Our price: Ł21.99 - Click book title for availability and further details

With Is It Good for the Jews? Biro offers a sequel to his acclaimed collection of stories Two Jews on a Train. Through twenty-nine tales - some new, some old, but all finely wrought and rich in humor - Biro spins stories of characters coping with the vicissitudes and reverses of daily life, while simultaneously painting a poignant portrait of a world of unassimilated Jewish life that has largely been lost to the years. From rabbis competing to see who is the most humble, to the father who uses suicide threats to pressure his children into visiting, to three men berated by the Almighty himself for playing poker, Biro populates his stories with memorable characters and absurd - yet familiar - situations, all related with a dry wit and spry prose style redolent of the long tradition of Jewish storytelling. A collection simultaneously of foibles and fables, adversity and affection, Is It Good for the Jews? reminds us that if in the beginning was the word, then we can surely be forgiven for expecting a punch line to follow one of these days.

5. E.M. Bounds Classic Collection on Prayer (Large Print 16pt) - Em Bounds

Largeprint (Paperback) Our price: Ł24.99 - Click book title for availability and further details

When I first read E. M. Bounds' eight books on prayer, I was certain there was no need for anyone else to ever write another book on prayer, that Bounds had said it all, and said it much better than anyone else could possibly say it. I felt the same way when I reread the eight books about three years later, and the several times I read them after that. I especially liked his book on The Possibilities of Prayer. It opened my mind and heart to how unlimited prayer is. A wonderful book - just wonderful! And all eight of his books on prayer are in this one volume - what a treasure!'' (Harold J. Chadwick) This edition is in two volumes. The second volume ISBN is 9781459633308.
