Описание: The book is informed by the Vietnamese immigrations of the nineteen-seventies but is filled with social observation of contemporary middle-class culture and indie sensibility . . . Quietly beautiful, Stroms stories are hip without being ironic. --The New Yorker

When The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys was first published in 2006, it was groundbreaking in its depiction of contemporary young Vietnamese women living in the United States, centering their ordinary lives as mothers, lovers, friends, and daughters against the backdrop of immigration and assimilation.

Available now for the first time in paperback and featuring a new introduction by Dao Strom, The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys is a beautifully written, psychologically astute foray into the rite of female passage.

Mary is a college film student full of yearning whos confounded by the casual give-and-take of the people around her; Darcy, a twenty-something musician, must confront the dark and unknown in the form of a naked stranger who repeatedly breaks into her ramshackle sublet; Leena, aged thirty, is isolated and alone after having been transplanted from Vietnam to Texas through marriage to an American businessman; and finally Sage, a new mother in her early thirties who finds herself, while on a road trip with her four-year-old boy and his father, entertaining thoughts of new romantic possibilities.

With both shrewd insight into the moral perils of contemporary life and a deep compassion for the fumbles we make along the way, The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys is as intimate as it is sweeping--revealing the gritty truths of loving, leaving, and growing up.

Описание: In 1993, archaeologists unearthed a set of ancient bamboo scrolls that contained the earliest known version of the Dao de jing. Composed more than two thousand years ago, this life-changing document offers a regimen of self-cultivation to attain personal excellence and revitalize moral behavior. Now in this luminous new translation, renowned China scholars Roger T. Ames and David L. Hall bring the timeless wisdom of the Dao de jing into our contemporary world.
In this elegant volume, Ames and Hall feature the original Chinese texts of the Dao de jing and translate them into crisp, chiseled English that reads like poetry. Each of the eighty-one brief chapters is followed by clear, thought-provoking commentary exploring the layers of meaning in the text. This new version of one of the world's most influential documents will stand as both a compelling introduction to Daoist thought and as the classic modern English translation.

Описание: What's the key to improving the relationships in your life? Improving your communication? Understanding the other person? Emotional intelligence?

While all are worthwhile methods, the first step in improving your relationships is take a look at yourself. Your motives. Your strengths and weaknesses. Your character.

By working on specific areas of your life, you can improve how you interact with others, and in turn, how they interact with you. The Relationship Project will challenge you to examine your self-control, humility, work, faithfulness, and wisdom, as you allow God to manage these qualities. Each chapter includes self-assessments and discussion questions for use in personal reflections or with your small group.
