Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The title to this book of homilies, No to Yes reflects the age-old beckoning to conversion. These 72 new homilies are drawn from everyday headlines and voices that range from the inspirational to the challenging, with a distinct thematic bias towards the conflict of culture and faith. The homilies are filled with Fr. Bausch's hallmark story telling; the more I preach the more I am convinced of their importance. Research has shown that stories form our lives for better or worse. Those stories that grapple with the deep questions - God, suffering, loneliness, and death - produce the myths we live by, myths that give us humans living on a decaying star some sense of identity, community, meaning and purpose. That is why we are a storytelling people and stories, unlike the facts-only one-dimensional statements our age favors. Stories have their own flexible, shape-shifting meanings that challenge, and often upend each era. A recent study of former Catholics has identified poor preaching as the second single most common complaint for why they stopped attending church. Clearly people want words that reflect where they are, that deal with matters they must face every day, and words that help them name their spiritual longings. As Christianity declines, at least here in the West with the Catholic Church hemorrhaging most severely of all, there is a need for reaching out to those who have left organized religion but who have not necessarily abandoned the quest for spirituality. Part of that outreach must begin with preaching the word of God whose aim, in the words of a Pope Francis' book title, makes Walking with Jesus more inviting, more approachable. Hopefully this volume of new homilies may help.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. This "small masterpiece with the same emotional force and moral complexity as Conrad's Heart of Darkness and Tolstoy's Hadji Murad" (Colm Tóibín) inspired the film Recon. Italy, near Cassino, in the terrible winter of 1944. An icy rain, continuing unabated for days. Guided by a seventy-year-old Italian man in rope-soled shoes, three American soldiers are sent on a reconnaissance mission up the side of a steep hill that they discover, before very long, to be a mountain. As they climb, the old man's indeterminate loyalties only add to the terror and confusion that engulf them. Peace is a feat of storytelling from one of America's most acclaimed novelists: a powerful look at the corrosiveness of violence, the human cost of war, and the redemptive power of mercy.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Bobby Hale is a Union veteran several times over. After the war, he sets his sights on California, but only makes it to Montana. As he stumbles around the West, from the Wyoming Territory to the Black Hills of the Dakotas, he finds meaning in the people he meets--settlers and native people--and the violent history he both participates in and witnesses. Far as the Eye Can See is the story of life in a place where every minute is an engagement in a kind of war of survival, and how two people--a white man and a mixed-race woman--in the midst of such majesty and violence can manage to find a pathway to their own humanity. Robert Bausch is the distinguished author of a body of work that is lively and varied, but linked by a thoughtfully complicated masculinity and an uncommon empathy. The unique voice of Bobby Hale manages to evoke both Cormac McCarthy and Mark Twain, guiding readers into Indian country and the Plains Wars in a manner both historically true and contemporarily relevant, as thoughts of race and war occupy the national psyche.…
