Adversity is not an optional item on life’s menu. We live in a fast and dangerous world. At some point, life won’t go as planned. You will face adversity. A proper response to adversity, on the other hand, is optional. Life can turn upside down faster than we want to acknowledge. From the time an avalanche fractured to the time I was violently crushed into a tree and buried was twelve seconds. In a mere twelve seconds, I went from hero to zero. I was always the type that grabbed hold of life with both hands and made the best of it. I was known as one of the best sets of hands behind the handlebars of a snowmobile. Then life slid out. The avalanche nearly took my life, and I came out of a lengthy coma and recovery with a hand I can’t use. By the hand of God and the amazing people in my life, I’ve never been without two hands. Check out the new unabridged audio version of Two Hands, narrated entirely by Matt with some special audio-only features. www.mattpotratz.com Also available on iTunes or Audible.

The story of four teens who live in a quiet town in Southwest Virginia, where the only excitement consists with its high school football team.

Appearing in 1966, Efuru was the first internationally published book, in English, by a Nigerian woman. Flora Nwapa (1931–1993) sets her story in a small village in colonial West Africa as she describes the youth, marriage, motherhood, and eventual personal epiphany of a young woman in rural Nigeria. The respected and beautiful protagonist, an independent-minded Ibo woman named Efuru, wishes to be a mother. Her eventual tragedy is that she is not able to marry or raise children successfully. Alone and childless, Efuru realizes she surely must have a higher calling and goes to the lake goddess of her tribe, Uhamiri, to discover the path she must follow. The work, a rich exploration of Nigerian village life and values, offers a realistic picture of gender issues in a patriarchal society as well as the struggles of a nation exploited by colonialism.
