Mother to three children, wife to three husbands, and in these reflective years of her life, sculptress, Black Activist and writer. Franny Emerson has done it all. Born into poverty, lost her mother when she was barely five, married her first husband when she was still at school just to get out of the stultifying home in which she was living, and grew up into one of black America's most beautiful sweethearts.
Now, for the first time, in this tell-all book in which Francesca holds nothing back, you'll read of what happened in Hollywood when the lights went out, and stars like Michael Douglas, Warren Beatty, Jack Lemmon and many others really got up to.
What an amazing life it really was like as a Playboy Bunny; and Francesca will tell you the inside stories of how a girl from Harlem grew up to be the lover of some of the most famous men in the world, a gangster's moll, and holding the Oscar at the Award Ceremony for one of the greatest movie directors of all time.
The Chocolate Bunny is the funniest, sharpest and most revealing book ever written about what happens when the movie comes to an end, and real life begins.
Read this autobiography, and Hollywood will never seem the same again.

Описание:
God used Joe to prove it's never about us, our abilities or anything we have to o er. When God decides to do something, He provides the vessel. He chooses the time and He alone controls the results. Many might have seen Joe as a "broken vessel," but Joe wasn't broken at all. He was molded by God to be the perfect tool for the job he wanted done.
Joe was an integral part of our family and his life played a major role in God's shaping each of us. If you ever met Joe you saw a life that shined God's light clearly. Joel Allen Froese, my brother, God's tool.

Описание:
"One morning, bundled up against the cold, I sat in my prayer chair reading the Gospels. As I read the little bit that is told about Mary Magdalene I said, "Father, we know so little about Mary. Would you tell me her story?" Immediately, it was like a movie was playing before my eyes. The story was so vivid I thought to run to my computer to write it down. I sat and typed for an hour before I realized I was freezing. I threw on some clothes, called my office and told them I wouldn't be in to work and I typed as words pour forth. I typed words I didn't know, I dovetailed Scripture in ways I couldn't imagine. When I finished I had the complete story of Mary Magdalene and the first "missionary.". This is a painful, wonderful story of God's redemptive love. Other than correcting spelling, I added or deleted nothing to this story. I now understand the workings of the Holy Spirit as never before. I didn't write this book, I typed it I feel so humbled that I get to put my name on the title page.

Описание: Faith or delusion? Fantasy or fact? From the winner of the 2009 Orange New Writers Award comes a profound meditation on the nature of faith and a riveting story of religious passion gone tragically wrong in London.When word gets out that Mary-Margaret O'Reilly, a somewhat slow-witted but apparently harmless young woman, may have been witness to a miracle, religious mania descends on the Church of the Sacred Heart by the River Thames in Battersea, London. The consequences will be profound, not only for Mary-Margaret herself but for others too--Father Diamond, the parish priest, who is in the midst of his own lonely crisis of faith, and Stella Morrison, adrift in a loveless marriage and aching for her ten-year old son, away at boarding school. Meanwhile another mother, Alice Armitage, counts the days until her soldier son comes home from Afghanistan, and Mary-Margaret's mother, Fidelma, imprisoned in her tower block, stares out over London through her window for hour after hour with nothing but her thoughts for company. This is an exquisite novel about passion and isolation, about the nature of belief, about love and motherhood and a search for truth that goes tragically wrong. Mary-Margaret's desperate attempt to prove that Jesus loves her will change lives in a shocking way. Can anything that is good come out of it; can faith survive sacrifice and pain? Francesca Kay has crafted a novel that is by turns sly and profound. Her crystalline prose unlocks secrets about our capacity to believe and to love. She is a writer who surprises and delights with her language and her stories.
