From Coretta Scott King Honor recipient G. Neri and acclaimed illustrator Elizabeth Haidle comes an exploration of love, art, and the gifts that two brilliant creators gave the world. Their projects made people smile or made them mad. They made people see again. When they first met, Christo was a poor refugee, and Jeanne-Claude knew nothing about art, but they were both rule-breakers and kindred spirits. Christo's innovative creations--everyday objects wrapped to make people reconsider them--sparked Jeanne-Claude's imagination. Thus began their lifelong partnership as husband and wife, and as artistic collaborators whose once-in-a-lifetime public installations captivated viewers and asked: What is art? Who does it belong to? And how can it help us reimagine the world around us? Accompanied by Elizabeth Haidle's wonderfully stylish illustrations, award-winning author G. Neri takes readers through the remarkable career of a daring duo and a fascinating discussion about the nature of art itself. Realized as an imagined conversation between Christo and Jeanne-Claude, this compelling book features back matter about the couple, an author's note, a bibliography, and a collection of fun facts about the artists and their work.

The digital copies of this book are available for free at First Fruits website. place.asburyseminary.edu/firstfruits PREFACE Most of the the sermons in this book have been preached in revival meetings, and at the great camp-meetings throughout the nation, and have been blessed of God in helping to lead many souls to salvation through faith in Christ. A large number of my friends in many parts of the country have insisted that I have them published in book form. I am having them published, and am sending them forth with the prayer and hope that they may prove helpful to all those who may read them. I am growing old, and have a desire that this book may carry a message of salvation to hungry human hearts long after I have ceased to speak.If in its pages the reader can find anything of interest and helpfulness I shall be grateful. I want the contents of this book to bear witness through the years to my undying faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal and all-sufficient Saviour. There sermons are but a poor expression of some of the great truths of that Gospel which is the power of God unto salvation. May the Holy Spirit illuminate the minds of those who may read the contents of this book, to discover in our blessed Lord Jesus one able to save to the uttermost all who come to Him. H. C. Morrison

Christos Tsiolkas is one of the most recognizable and internationally successful literary novelists working in Australia today. He is also one of the country’s most politically engaged writers. These terms – recognition, commercial success, political engagement – suggest a relationship to forms of public discourse that belies the extremely confronting nature of much of Tsiolkas’s fiction and his deliberate attempt to cultivate a literary persona oriented to notions of blasphemy, obscenity and what could broadly be called a pornographic sensibility. ‘Christos Tsiolkas and the Fiction of Critique’ traces these contradictions against Tsiolkas’s acute sense of the waning of working-class identity, and reads his work as a sustained examination of the ways in which literature might express an opposition to capitalist modernity.

"Brixton...A great spillover of excessive dreams. Anonymous masses...All of you are dancers of the dying beat. I come with the strong arm to ignite the rhythm, to drive again your passion for life." A revolutionary preacher begs the crowds to 'abandon the willful peace' that keeps them down. He tries to make them believe that things could be different. But, when people pray only for a brand new car or a large KFC bucket, the citizens of Brixton need a miracle to happen...
Christ of the Celts "I explore the Celtic image of Christ as the Memory of what we have forgotten. He remembers the dance of the universe and the harmony that is deep within all things. He is the Memory also of who we are." --from the Prelude "Diagnosing the human soul with a longing for peace in the face of fear and fragmentation nurtured by global political forces and fundamentalisms, Newell offers the ancient traditions of Celtic Christianity as a way forward in healing humankind and the earth." --Publishers Weekly "This graceful, wise, and important book is a superb introduction to the treasures of Celtic Christianity for our time." --Marcus Borg, author, The Heart of Christianity
