Description
The Book of MonelleWhen Marcel Schwob published The Book of Monelle in French in 1894, it immediately became the unofficial bible of the French Symbolist movement, admired by such contemporaries as St phane Mallarm , Alfred Jarry and Andr Gide. A carefully woven assemblage of legends, aphorisms, fairy tales and nihilistic philosophy, it remains a deeply enigmatic and haunting work more than a century later, a gathering of literary and personal ruins written in a style
When Marcel Schwob published The Book of Monelle in French in 1894, it immediately became the unofficial bible of the French Symbolist movement, admired by such contemporaries as St phane Mallarm , Alfred Jarry and Andr Gide. A carefully woven assemblage of legends, aphorisms, fairy tales and nihilistic philosophy, it remains a deeply enigmatic and haunting work more than a century later, a gathering of literary and personal ruins written in a style that evokes both the Brothers Grimm and Friedrich Nietzsche. The Book of Monelle was the result of Schwob's intense emotional suffering over the loss of his love, a "girl of the streets" named Louise, whom he had befriended in 1891 and who succumbed to tuberculosis two years later. Transforming her into the innocent prophet of destruction, Monelle, Schwob tells the stories of her various sisters: girls succumbing to disillusionment, caught between the misleading world of childlike fantasy and the bitter world of reality. This new translation reintroduces a true fin-de-si cle masterpiece into English.A secret influence on generations of writers, from Guillaume Apollinaire and Jorge Luis Borges to Roberto Bola o, Marcel Schwob (1867-1905) was as versed in the street slang of medieval thieves as he was in the poetry of Walt Whitman (whom he translated into French). Paul Val ry and Alfred Jarry both dedicated their first books to him, and he was the uncle of Surrealist photographer Claude Cahun.

Find balance, peace and restoration with Soul Care
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Debra Fileta’s background as a licensed professional counselor and Christian shines bright as she combines biblical examples from Jesus's life with informed psychology and resources to help the reader avoid burnout and live joyfully. Soul Care will help you examine what areas of your life require attention and set a path for what you can do next. The book provides resources and ideas and is an excellent study tool.
As a small business owner for over 22 years, my pace has impacted my decisions for decades. One topic covered in Soul Care is the need to slow down. I relate very much to the need to pace myself and find rhythms of rest.
If you are willing to go deep and ask yourself some real, honest questions, this book is for you. In our fast-paced, always-on, instant world, this book offers an opportunity to find balance, peace, and restoration, leading to better relationships, decision-making, and outcomes. Debra is an outstanding counselor who is God-led to help people.
I highly recommend Soul Care by Debra Fileta because I believe God can use it to help transform you and the people in your life. It's a source of inspiration and motivation for personal growth and transformation.

Timely words for today’s culture
Format: Paperback
Debra Fileta's "Soul Care" is a great blend of faith-based principles and practical advice. I love how she explores the rhythms Jesus practiced to care for his soul as a framework for readers to follow.
What sets Soul Care apart is her holistic approach to caring for ourselves. Debra Fileta addresses the spiritual, emotional, AND physical aspects (I love the title of chapter 7). Her tone is so easy to read, but the content is deep and thought provoking. Soul Care is helping me realize the need to establish healthier, more sustainable rhythms in my life and giving me answers for how to do that.
As someone who served in ministry before, during, and after the Covid-19 pandemic, I’ve seen such a high burnout rate around me (and in my own life). This couldn’t be a more timely read. I want to give a copy to everyone I know!
