Mallory G: Letters From Everest / B

Letters From Everest

Unpublished Letters from Mallory’s Life and Death in the Mountains

A collection of excerpts from C.S. Lewis's letters offering guidance and encouragement to correspondents struggling with intellectual questions, personal conflicts, or ethical dilemmas. C.S. Lewis's writings have inspired spiritual formation, helped people explore joy, facilitated redemption, and taught us the consequences of human choices.Letters on Living the Faith provides wisdom and insight from Lewis—oftentimes to strangers. The letter arrangement is intentional and a felt need driven resource. The sections highlight:<ul><li>Prayer, meditation, spiritual seeking, and Christian formation</li><li>How to put faith into practice, the psychology behind spirituality, and Catholic Doctrines</li><li>Confessions of struggle, questions about Narnia, and consolation and courage</li></ul>This compilation of letters is an intimate gem of wisdom that's easy-to-access for current fans and readers of Lewis, but will also feel approachable for new readers wanting to learn more.Lewis often referred to his role as letter writer as a "mentor by mail." Lewis succeeded so well as a spiritual guide because of his character and the wonderful person he was.

Letters on Living the Faith

The tender memoir of the forty-three years Siri Hustvedt spent with her husband, writer, poet and filmmaker Paul Auster - from their first encounter in 1980s New York to his death in 2024 Ghost Stories is Siri Hustvedt's most personal work yet, a searing and intimate meditation on grief, memory, and enduring love, written in the aftermath of the death of her husband, writer, poet and filmmaker Paul Auster. It is a patchwork-quilt book that stitches together memories from over forty years of love and life together: journal entries Siri wrote between early November 2023, when Paul first became ill, and 3 May 2024, the day of his funeral; e-mails Siri sent to friends during Paul's cancer treatment; notes Paul sent her over the course of their relationship; and three love letters Siri wrote to him in 1981, when he left her for a period of nine or ten days to return to his former life with his first wife and son. The book also contains Paul Auster's last ever piece of writing - the first thirty-five pages of what he hoped would be a small book of letters to Siri's and his grandson, Miles Auster Hustvedt Ostrander, born on 1st January 2024. The result is an emotional, full-bodied story of Siri Hustvedt and Paul Auster's life together, an exploration of how grief unmoors time and how the intimacy of a shared life continues to mark the everyday. 'I began writing Ghost Stories shortly after my husband, Paul Auster, died on April 30th 2024. My meditations on Paul's cancer, his death, my grief, the potent feeling I had of his presence on the day he was buried, and my memories from the years we spent together are interwoven with several texts that were written before he died: twelve letters I wrote to friends during his cancer treatment; journal entries I wrote between early November, 2023 and May 3, 2024; and three love letters I wrote to Paul in 1981, when he left me for a period of nine or ten days to return to his former life. Although I knew Paul had saved those letters, I hadn't read them since they were written and had only a foggy recollection of their content. In the last month of his life, Paul began writing what he hoped would be a small book of letters to our grandson, Miles Auster Hustvedt Ostrander, who was born on January 1st, 2024. Paul was too weak to finish it as planned, but the thirty-five pages he did manage to write are interwoven in this book. I want to stress that Paul's text is not an appendix to mine but an integral part of the book as a whole. Because the memoir turns on attachment, betweenness, and dialogue, all crucial to the love affair that lasted forty-three years, the insertion of one author's text into another's, is, in this case, essential to the memoir's overall meaning.'

A memoir

Ghost Stories

The Love Letters of Dylan Thomas

YouTuber and pop punk musician, Noahfinnce, reflects on his journey of self-discovery with candour and humour, guiding the reader through tackling tough times, and how to be authentically yourself in the world today - both online and offline. Hey underachievers! Get ready to embrace the wild, weird world of you. Join NOAHFINNCE on a hilarious and heartfelt trip through life's ups and downs in his interactive, debut book Nobody Knows Me Worse Than I Do. In this kind-of-a-guide, written by a 25-year-old man child who's changed genders twice, changed sexualities three times, and has never had a \"real job\", Noah tries to help you find YOU (while he tries to find himself too). Because what he lacks in formal qualifications, he sure makes up for in experiences. Noah shares his own personal stories about being himself in a world of trends, labels, and judgement. He meets all the roles he plays and shows how they work together to make up this thing we call 'me'. There are plenty of prompts to work through your own stuff too. Consider this parallel play with a pop-punk edge. You can absorb bits, pick out the parts that connect with you, or reflect on your own life and discard the rest as if it was never written. It's totally up to you.

Finding and losing yourself and accepting that it will happen again

Nobody Knows Me Worse Than I Do

'Tender, immersive, and thrilling' GABRIELLE ZEVIN, author of Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow 'One of the best novels I've ever read about friendship between a young man and a young woman ... Exciting and tension filled' STEPHEN KING 'Profound and stunning ... It will make you question yourself and every one of your beliefs' LIZ NUGENT *** A heartstopping story of friendship, thrill-seeking and defying expectations: the explosive second novel from the bestselling author of My Absolute Darling Dan and Tamma are two Californian teenagers growing up dirt poor in the shadows of the Joshua Tree National Park, one of the world's great rock climbing meccas. Their mothers had once been teenage waitresses and best friends until their paths diverged. Now Dan's mother spends her days locked in her room, her dreams squandered and all her hopes pinned on getting her precociously clever son out of town and away to university. Tamma's mother holds no such ambition for her mouthy, snaggle-toothed, truant-playing, queer younger daughter, who everyone but Dan believes to be a troublemaker and no-hoper. But Tamma and Dan are fuelled by dreams of becoming legendary rock climbers, of devoting their lives to summiting the most challenging climbs and defying all the expectations, both good and bad, that others have for them. Climbing, each morning at sun-up, on cliff faces that test their bodies to the limit, is where their friendship is forged. It's also the one thing that gives them hope. But as their final year of high school unfolds and their climbs become ever more dangerous, and their home lives ever more extreme, it's inevitable that something is going to snap...

Letter to My Younger Self: Inspirational Women

The true story of the thrill-seekers, map-makers, soldiers, occultists, artists and porters who paved the way for modern mountaineering.

'A beautifully written and sure-footed history of mountaineering "before Everest", full of wonderful stories and spanning continents and centuries. A splendid debut.' Sir Ranulph Fiennes, author of&nbsp;Shackleton

Beautiful, remote and dangerous - for generations we have looked to the mountains in awe. Yet, for most, that is where the fascination ends. For a rare few, however, the allure of the peaks proved irresistible.

There are the devout Incan priests who, scaling the Andes' icy slopes to pay tribute to each mountain's 'Great Lord', travelled higher than any European would for centuries. The Gurkha riflemen who joined their commanders in canvassing the Karakoram, admiring the distant summits of Broad Peak and K2 with gleeful anticipation. The tweed-clad mountaineers who made the first serious assaults on Everest, hauling yards upon yards of battered rope through the cold.

Tracing the world altitude record from the ashy slopes of the sacred volcano Llullaillaco to the icy crags and crevasses of the Karakoram, Daniel Light takes a panoramic journey through the storied history of mountaineering before Everest. Joining a cast of colourful characters,&nbsp;The White Ladder offers an ode to mountains' capacity to enthral, and the fundamental human drive to climb higher and higher.

***

'Thrilling...&nbsp;Daniel Light delivers&nbsp;stories that are poetic, spiritual and astonishing in their courage and drive.' Sonia Purnell, author of&nbsp;A Woman of No Importance

'Daniel Light guides the reader through a mountain-scape that stretches from the Alps to the Himalaya... with the sure footing of a serious student of climbing history, and the élan of a skilled storyteller. This is a book to curl up with on a cold dark night in a comfortable armchair before a bright fire.' Maurice Isserman, co-author of Fallen Giants

'Wonderful... a massive story with an enormous cast of characters, among them some of the most compelling figures of mountaineering history.' Wade Davis, author of Into the Silence
