A rare book that combines searing passion with a subject that has affected all of our lives. "Chicago Tribune" Novelist, cultural critic, and former priest James Carroll marries history with memoir as he maps the two-thousand-year course of the Church s battle against Judaism and faces the crisis of faith it has sparked in his own life. Fascinating, brave, and sometimes infuriating ("Time"), this dark history is more than a chronicle of religion. It is the central tragedy of Western civilization, its fault lines reaching deep into our culture to create a deeply felt work ("San Francisco Chronicle") as Carroll wrangles with centuries of strife and tragedy to reach a courageous and affecting reckoning with difficult truths."
Contains the full texts of all Tax Court decisions entered from Oct. 24, 1942 to date, with case table and topical index.
On the beautiful island of Guernsey is an art gallery by the name of La Perle. Owners Antoinette and James are both privileged and delighted when famous artist Raphael Harcourt-Smythe offers to hold an exhibition at the gallery, with the centrepiece being his painting Madrigal. As the exhibition progresses, La Perle transforms into a place of mystery and intrigue, and when romance becomes entangled with murder, it is clear that things are not all as they first seem... Marilyn Parkes-Seddon's gripping thriller is enhanced by her vivid descriptions of the beauty of Guernsey, which contrast with echoes from the Second World War, during which the Channel Islands were occupied by German forces.
