Hardback. Etat : Good. In Roseborough, Jane Roberts Wood returns with a keenly observed tale of bighearted people in small-town Texas. Three weeks after Mary Lou's Gypsy husband dies, her fourteen-year-old daughter, Echo, runs away. Numbed by grief and grounded only by her job at the Dairy Queen, she impulsively signs up for Anne Hamilton's single-parenting class at the nearby community college. Anne, complex and passionate, has avoided the risks that come with commitment. Knowing nothing of the stages of grief or the process of recovery, Mary Lou begins a sometimes comic, yet poignant, journey to find Echo. Compelled by Mary Lou's story and her strange daughter, Anne begins her own journey that can ultimately set her free. Wood has a rare gift for transcending the ordinary. . .

"The Seth books present an alternate map of reality with a new diagram of the psyche.useful to all explorers of consciousness." - Deepak Chopra, M.D., author of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success From the Bestselling Author of Seth Speaks and The Nature of Personal Reality In the first volume of Dreams, "Evolution," and Value Fulfillment, Seth presented an in-depth picture of the origin of all life - from the inner dream world to the vast display of material creation. Here, in Volume Two, Seth continues his explanation of the physical world as an ongoing self-creation - a direct and intentional outgrowth of the wisdom of the life forms that inhabit it, including humanity. He expands upon his vision of a thoroughly animate universe, where virtually every possibility not only exists, but is constantly encouraged to achieve its highest potential. In his typical awe-inspiring manner, Seth sheds light on many controversial and complex subjects, including: . The ways in which our religions have stifled the human spirit . Surprising insight into life's meaning and purpose . The genetic basis of faith, hope, and charity . The pursuit of pleasure as a fundamental human need . How each species keeps millions of characteristics within its genetic bank for various contingencies "Dreams are mental work and play combined, psychic and emotionally rich creative dramas. They also involve you in the most productive of enterprises as you begin to play with versions of events that are being considered for physical actualization." - Jane Roberts, Speaking for Seth.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. From the Bestselling Author of Seth Speaks In this mind-stretching journey into the very frontiers of consciousness, Seth reveals the multidimensional nature of the human soul. In Seth Speaks, Seth introduced the concept of probable realities, in which our idle daydreams and unfulfilled impulses do take place, in which all possible choices are fully experienced by other portions of the self. Now in this first volume of The Unknown Reality, Seth explains the dazzling labyrinths of unseen probabilities involved in any decision, and how our awareness of these can enrich the waking life we know. In a fascinating exploration of the cosmic web of our existence, Seth reveals: - The purpose of dreams, and how they are often fulfilled unconsciously- Misconceptions about death and the afterlife- How different probable realities intersect and influence one another- The relationship between physical health and inner reality- A series of exercises to help you discover the unknown portions of your greater identity The self is multidimensional when it is physically alive. It is a triumph of spiritual and psychological identity, ever choosing from a myriad of probable realities its own clear unassailable focus. When you don't realize this, then you project upon life after death all of the old misconceptions. . . . The fact is that in life you poise delicately and yet perfectly between realities, and after death you do the same. -- Jane Roberts, Speaking for Seth.…

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. In the east Texas town of Cold Springs in 1944, the community waits for the war to end. In this place where certain boundaries are not crossed and in a time when people reveal little about themselves, their problems, and their passions, Jane Roberts Wood exposes the heart of each of four families during the last year of World War I. Bound together by neighborhood and Southern customs, yet separated by class, money, and family, they are an unforgettable lot, vibrantly brought to life in this delightfully perceptive and unabashedly romantic novel (Sanford Herald). As the war grinds to an end, it becomes the catalyst that drives the inhabitants of Cold Springs across the boundaries that had once divided them, taking them to places both chaotic and astonishing. A rare novel: intelligent, lyrical, devoid of coyness and manipulative plot turns-a book for old and young. -Austin American-Statesman A genuine Texas treasure. -Dallas Morning News Wood handles whatever she touches with delicate precision, and she leaves an impression, not of the bitterness of life, but of the tenderness of the human soul. -The New Mexican Jane Roberts Wood is the award winning author of The Train to Estelline, A Place Called Sweet Shrub, and Dance a Little Longer, all published in paperback by the University of North Texas Press.
