I'm a maritimer living in Nova Scotia. I love book clubs! </p> <p>My book is set in Nfld, based on a true tragedy in the early 1900's. The back of the book says:</p> <p>Black Water Born<br /> 'Against the background of Newfoundland's early years, Black Water Born tells the turbulent love story of Lucky and Helen whose relationship seems doomed from the start. An action-driven tale of adventure, passion and family secrets, Fara Spence's second novel reveals the cost of discovering what really matters in life -- and death.</p> <p>"Spence is a born storyteller. Black Water Born is a work of sharp<br /> observation and immediacy that kept me<br /> turning the pages steadily..." Globe &#38; Mail.</p> <p>My website is <a href="http://www.faraspence.com." rel="nofollow">www.faraspence.com.</a><br /> Would love to hear from other readers and writers.<br /> Cheers,<br /> Fara </p> http://www.canadianbookclubs.com/forums/topic/12#post-18 Mon, 14 May 2007 05:50:49 +0000 tyciol 18@http://www.canadianbookclubs.com/forums/ <p>It sounds like a great idea, I've blended a lot of those old theology-type things into cognitive explorations too. It's sort of like, perhaps the roots of philosophy were originally founded in ancient theologies, people trying to interpret them and so forth? The theologies are like primitive expressions of philosophical feelings being born in the subconscious or something, we needed to give words and form toit, but did not know how, so we literalized our subconscious metaphors.</p> <p>In interpreting them, we come to rational discussions of human principles, and eventually it becomes so complex as our analytical abilities increased, that it could stand on it's own right. In many cases that discoure can even take the place of theology in people's evaluations of life's meanings. </p> http://www.canadianbookclubs.com/forums/topic/12#post-13 Mon, 15 Jan 2007 16:23:33 +0000 ignasio 13@http://www.canadianbookclubs.com/forums/ <p>This psychological novel, written by Mario E. Martinez, introduces the reader to a harmonious convergence of cognitive science and mystical theology. The style is reminiscent of "The Da Vinci Code" and "Shadow of the Wind". The book is full of codes to be unraveled while you incidentally learn about mind-body science within a plot that explains the mysterious Christ-like wounds manifested in stigmatics. Some of the characters are so engaging that, at times, they entice you to take them home as new-found friends. The book is quite popular in Ireland and beginning to gain popularity in the US.<br /> If you are interested in learning more about the practical life lessons in this novel, go to <a href="http://www.themanfromautumn.com" rel="nofollow">www.themanfromautumn.com</a> or <a href="http://www.amazon.com" rel="nofollow">www.amazon.com</a> </p>
