Little Stories of Married Life
In "Little Stories of Married Life," Mary Stewart Cutting presents a tender and insightful exploration of the quotidian experiences and emotional landscapes inhabited by married couples. Through a series of vignettes, Cutting employs a conversational yet poignant literary style that intricately captures the intimate nuances of partner dynamics, the balance of love and conflict, and the transformative power of shared existence. Set in the early 20th century, when societal norms regarding marriage were evolving, these stories reflect the complexities and aspirations of domestic life while offering a subtle critique of contemporaneous views on marital roles. Mary Stewart Cutting, an accomplished author and feminist thinker, drew on her own experiences as a wife and mother to craft a narrative that resonates with authenticity and depth.

This personal connection informs her characters'' journeys, providing readers with a rich tapestry of relatable scenarios that evoke empathy and reflection. "Little Stories of Married Life" is a must-read for those interested in the interpersonal dynamics of marriage, as well as readers seeking to explore historical perceptions of gender roles.

Ludo and the Star Horse
One night when Ludo is home alone, his family''s only horse, Renti, escapes from the stable. Overcome with guilt and fear, Ludo follows Renti out in to the snow, and before long the pair find themselves in the House of the Archer, a gateway to the Zodiac. Here, the Archer tells Ludo that Renti is a Star Horse, and has chosen to return to his own kind. Ludo, says the Archer, may keep faith with Renti and accompany him, or, if he prefers, return home. Ludo decides that he must repay Renti''s years of loyal service, and so the pair set off on a journey through the houses of the zodiac, or ''Star Countries''. They must pass through all twelve before catching the sun - but Ludo soon realises that many of the house rulers are less than hospitable. Dismissed by the imperious goat, chased by the crab, taunted by the bloodthirsty twins... theirs is a perilous and unpredictable journey...

Love Song of a Flower Child

release date: Oct 24, 2012
Love Song of a Flower Child
This is a riveting story of redemption, and a journey to discover truth, love, and purpose. The author has graphically documented her need for healing from the effects of drugs, the occult, and New Age philosophy. She lived in Berkeley during the chaos of social rebellion and drug-induced insanity as a college dropout and former wife of a drug dealer. She also gives us a glimpse of life in the coastal community of Big Sur, where she was miraculously saved in 1972, and which she calls the land of her second birth. When I met Mary and John in 2004 on the mission field, I knew this story needed to be told. The union of a flower child and a warrior in marriage is sure to bring the most dramatic stories. But the beauty of this book comes from the heart of God who continued to prepare, refine, and work by revealing Himself throughout their story. Youre going to love this one! Andy Braner, author, speaker, teen advocate, but most of all a curious observer, discovering Gods Beautiful universe
