My World

The Baker's Wife

2011-12-06T12:29:00.000-08:00

I was intrigued when I read the description of Baker's Wife by Erin Healy, "...Driving early one morning to the bakery, Audrey's car strikes something-or someone-at a fog-shrouded intersection. She finds a motor scooter belonging to a local teacher. Blood is everywhere, but there's no trace of a body.

Both the scooter and the blood belong to detective Jack Mansfield's wife, and he's certain that Audrey is behind Julie's disappearance..." (Amazon.com)

I thought that should be a good mystery book. But when I had a great opportunity to read it, no, that was not a simply good mystery story, that was something extraordinary, something different, with a simple but yet, so important message to tell, - you would solve the problem if you felt that, if you looked into that deeper and deeper, with all your mind and soul.

Audrey felt Jack's pain, what an immense sorrow - to lose the wife, but she also felt, and that feeling was mysterious, that something was not right, that Julie (or Juliet, as we would find out her real name from Diane, ex-con, and her former friend) was alive.

Indeed, Audrey was not a usual woman. And maybe that's why Jack had suspicions that Audrey had been involved in Julie's dissapearance?

But Audrey's extraordinary ability helped her very much. She not only found Julie, but also saved lives of her dear husband and son. Jack's immense despair forced him to promise Audrey that he would kill her husband and son if she didn't find Julie immediately.

And that led to culmination of Audrey's ability and solving the whole mystery of the story. Yes, eventually she found Julie, a woman, though having a husband, but feeling so lonely in this world.

I have to say that Baker's Wife was one of the best mystery I have ever read. Erin Healy transmitted the characters of the book with so great skill that they would play with your mind and lead to your own questions and answers.

The Seraph Seal by Leonard Sweet and Lori Wagner

2011-09-10T22:48:00.000-07:00

According to the title of the book - The Seraph Seal, written by Leonard Sweet and Lori Wagner, we imagine a good fiction in style of modern best sellers. And indeed, it's a fiction compiling what mankind studies for centuries in the religious science.

Seraph Seal is “an epic tale of good and evil based on the four horsemen of the Apocalypse found in the book of Revelation.

Using the four horsemen of the Apocalypse to symbolize the four Gospels, four transcendentals, and four forces of the universe (air, water, earth, and fire), Sweet and Wagner weave a fast-paced, end-times tale of good vs. evil and the promise of a new dawn for humanity.

Set in 2048, when planet Earth is suffering from the damaging effects of years of misuse and abuse, cultural history professor Paul Binder receives a mysterious letter that leads him to examine a lost 2nd-century Diatessaron manuscript. Ancient prophecies, cryptic letters, and strange events set him on a course to uncover the missing clues that could lead humanity into a new age. Each character embodies elements of the four horsemen in a race to save the world from total destruction. Layered with forgotten symbolism from the ancient Jewish and Christian traditions, the book is a story in which the main characters journal serves as a guide to the reader in interpreting clues and understanding the conclusion”, - Amazon. ca (http://www.amazon.ca/Seraph-Seal-Leonard-Sweet/dp/0849920779)

The authors connected Ancient times with nearest future, bringing to never-ending discussions issues which are remained enigmas till the present times. I highly respect their study of Jewish and Christian traditions and history in order to fulfill this great effort of writing such a tremendous work of art. The book has 527 pages and every page, every paragraph, even every sentence makes us think about ourselves and our mission on the Earth.

But it is sad to mention that the book has some errors, particularly in describing the nations. The authors refer Iranian and Turkish nations as Arabs (p.156). Even about Syrians we cannot surely say that they are all Arabs as being a very ancient nation, Syrians have many ethnic nations. In my opinion, here would be more acceptable to refer Iranians and Turks as Muslims.

On the whole, though it is a huge book, but it is very easy to read. But I have to say that there are too many dialogues. Maybe that would be good for a screenplay for a movie, but as a book it is lack of vivid descriptions.

McCain Purely Potatoes

2011-04-10T20:40:00.000-07:00

Have you tried them? They are already washed, peeled and cut for your convenience and time saving! Just put the bag in a microwave and steam! And you have mouth melting, delicous potatoes ready to eat. Or maybe you prefer mashing them and prepare your favourite dish? Go ahead! I just did the same.

I was one of lucky people who were selected to get them from BzzCampaign. As a BzzAgent I feel so great that I received so delicious product and can confidently share an excellent quality and taste of McCain Purely Potatoes with you.

I prepared our Saturday dinner (as usually we have Saturday dinner time at our house with the relatives and friends) with McCain Purely Potatoes. After steaming in microwave I mashed them and poured on the pan over the vegetables (a kind of Shepherd Pie with my own improvisation). That was so delicious! All of us liked that!

Try yourself and...yes, sure, feel free to ask about my imrpovisation of Shepherd's Pie.

Муки призрака

2010-01-09T21:13:00.000-08:00

Когда-то я любила рок музыку,особенно группу Агата Кристи.Вот и тогда появились у меня несколько стихов.Это один из них.

Сигаретный дым...
Ты стоишь один.
Куришь и молчишь,
Знаю,ты страдаешь.

Виновата ли?..
Не люблю,прости.
Капнула слеза...
Ну,мужчина ты!..

Посмотри вокруг-
Ты найдешь родную.
Упал в адский круг-
Ты найди покоя.

Пустота

2010-01-09T20:50:00.000-08:00

Это стихотворение я написала больше 10 лет тому назад,тогда мне в этот день было очень грустно,вот и появились эти строчки.

Мир склеян из дождя и снега
И еле виден солнца луч.
Ах,трудно нам дождаться друга
Кто мог бы стать умом могуч.

Снег-пустота.Дождь-слезы,слякость,
А солнце-путь наш в никуда.
И что же нам приносит радость?
Ничто,никто и никогда.

Увы,здесь царство темных,
Где король-слепой и глух.
И среди пошлых поданых
Ничто не будоражит слух.

Your Eternal Guard

2010-01-09T20:43:00.000-08:00

Hey,you,take your puppet,
Leave your scene at once.
Yes,you puppet's so neat
Can't endure the performance.

You're witty.Persuade
With outrage to be appealing.
But I tell,even shade
Of servant is a human being.

Your doll has simple feeling
Of pain which is acute,
You've bought it for a shilling
Alas for pain which is subdued.

Alas for you,you commit
A crime which is content
For you.Doll's impudent
But anyway,you can omit...

You omit respect and love
And can't admit the truth.
Without sense it's so hard
To be eternal guard.

No Title...or...The Orchestra of Little Angels

2010-01-07T19:51:00.000-08:00

Believe,conductor!Can't conduct
The orchestra of little angels.
Under your stick they couldn't shift
From little angels to the devils.

Oh,conductor!You aren't cheerful
You have to be more powerful.
The angels never concentrate
On your evil,they evade

They evade of hurting people
And confirm all their thoughts.
You've lost uneasy battle
Angels needn't take your laws.

It's a good thing you disband
The orchestra.You've understood
The orchestra won't lend a hand
To you until the thoughts are good.

On this ground you have to shift
Each angel to the devil.
The very thing is that you need
The servant with the evil.

Just a prose written by me a long time ago

2010-01-07T19:25:00.000-08:00

Yes,he aimed higher than his capacity,the capacity of doing kind things.He tried,as it were,to negotiate with his conscience but he doomed himself to failure.He couldn't be involved in that crime.Maybe he was a man of immense mental grasp,maybe he was too naive in order to get much money in an easy way.Hard to say.But you see he couldn't be against God and couldn't kill a man.Naive and kind people are always afraid of God,of punishment,coming from heaven.
Maybe his navity doomed him to frustration.But in any way he kept his purity though only for himself.So his girl-friend was astonished.Why hadn't he killed her father?He might kill him and just take the money he had kept in in the safe.But he couldn't.He couldn't do that because his love and respect to his own parents were more deeper that those of his girl-friend's.And he couldn't understand her like a kind man can't understand a cruel one.And like God can't understand devil,as it were,the devil's ambition which always exceeds his conscience.
The devil's compliments work magic.He can impose to do one of the seven deadly sins easily.But it doesn't work on kind people who do everything according to their conscience.
And maybe God is our own conscience.Who knows?
