If you dream about a knapsack, it may be time to ditch your friends and strike out on your own. If your slumber involves scenes of a quarry, double down on your hard work to make your goals a reality. If the soundtrack of your dreams involves bugles, get ready for an unexpected dose of happiness and good fortune. These and thousands of other dream interpretations are collected in Gustavus Hindman Miller's endlessly entertaining Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted.

"And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour forth of my Spirit upon all flesh: And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see visions, And your old men shall dream dreams: " (Acts 2:17, ASV). There has never been a greater time for God's people to put aside their petty religious insanities and "wake up" to hear "His" voice; whether it comes in the explosive eruption of a volcano, a clap of thunder, or a whisper in your ear in the stillness of the night. Inside the cover of this book are essential ingredients to hear His voice in the quiet of the night. The WORD says: "and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice" (John 10:4, ASV). Do you know His voice? Perhaps it's time we take the principles found within this book and learn to recognize all the ways that "He" can, and is speaking to us. Pastor Joseph Landreth "Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men." (Mark 1:17, NKJV)

Why Buy This Book? I awakened to the sound of Mama shucking sweet summer corn. Galash! Ga-lash! Ga-lash! Oh, boy, I thought, as I lazily crawled out of bed and headed down the hall, ready to help Mama before I dressed. But Mama was nowhere in sight. That's when I realized inside my ten-year-old mind that what I had heard was Mr. Tyler beating his dog, old Dash, again. I had to call Anna Lee. After all, we were best friends. She would know what to do. Dash's story is one of many in my writer's heart, festering like a boil waiting to come to a head. Just like that night that had been brewing between Cindy Lou and me for the longest time. She had been talking about Mama and Mother for days, calling my mother and grandmother "them old African women." And what about the other stories circling around the inside of my head? Like the one about the rock that came barreling through the air, splitting my head open; or the joy of having a birthday party; my first experience with prejudice; the pain of losing my favorite doll, Donna; the horror that stirred inside me when one of my good friends died; finding out about my friend's terrible secret; the sadness I felt for the two brothers who came begging for food one Sunday; my second boyfriend who moved away without letting me know; and several other events that had a tremendous impact on my youth. Meet Mama, Mother, Sister, and Anna Lee, common folks you'll like. Come travel with me. I may be only ten, but I'm ready, willing, and quite capable of helping you discover those Voices Still Heard, Dreams Still Believed, and Scenes Still Viewed.

Margherita Giacobino’s book is a fictionalised biography/autobiography of Patricia Highsmith, taking the form of diary entries supposedly written by her, interspersed with a third-person narrative. It focuses on her psychological and emotional life, with the emphasis on feelings, relationships and aspirations rather than facts, dates and events. A lesbian in an era when to be homosexual was to be reviled and discriminated against, and made to feel guilty and ashamed, Patricia Highsmith struggled with her sexual identity in this social context, and the book fruitfully explores how this might have contributed to her creative output. The title is a reference to PH’s second novel The Price of Salt, a lesbian romance originally published under a pseudonym after it was rejected by the publisher of her first novel. It was not until 1990 that PH agreed to its reissue under her own name, with the new title Carol. 'The Price of Dreams has captured something essential about Patricia Highsmith - a unique but altogether plausible version, whose voice so echoes the voices the woman created throughout her writing life. This is just an astonishing work - a revelation.' Dorothy Allison
