Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Child Killer; The Auschwitz Survivor; The Grey Nomad. These are just some of those who bear the 99 names. From prisons, to farms, city streets and nursing homes, these 37 vignettes are like a series of snap shots taken from the lives of everyday poeple. But they cast a searching light on the human condition, revealing inspiring beauty in the midst of the many shadows.There is a shy hope and sensibility running through this motley crew of vignettes that is at odds with our dominant, neo-liberal culture. It endures in each brush stroke of a story that we are held inside a gracious embrace. No matter how sullied or burnt or broken or just plain ordinary our lives can be, we are part of a greater weave of belonging. No thing and no one is an island. We are always just a one degree of separation away from all things arising.
