Phew! This is one of those hard topics to read, and Larson took me by the hand and encouraged me to get through the whole thing, somehow giving me a foundation to stand on in the midst of the craziness of Berlin in 1933-34. He doesn't paint any histo ...more

The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton

I always enjoy reading these classics alongside a Literary Life podcast discussion. It opens up details that I'm not familiar with. This is a book I've avoided for years--the Gilded Age of New York isn't a time or place I get excited about. But I'm g ...more

This is a lovely conclusion to this series. I got to the end and realized I really wanted it to go on--I wasn't ready to say goodbye! Baehr ties up the necessary threads, and the relationships are lovely and encouraging. ...more

Thoroughly enjoyed how this carried the story forward. I was afraid I wouldn't like it as much because Simon doesn't come into it in person, but it carried me right along. ...more

I really do love this book, even though structurally it isn't the best of Sayers' Lord Peter mysteries. In a note at the beginning, Sayers comments that for a honeymooning couple, a murder mystery is an interruption, and she plays that out delightful ...more

Quotes by Loren G. Warnemuende  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“You cannot ignore the hand of the One Who Leads,
Your destiny is in His hands.
Blessed will you be, oh Princess of Sorrow,
Your search has found its destination.
That which you run from will be your final goal.”
Loren G. Warnemuende, Exile

“Dirt is your friend,” she remembered him saying more than once. “ There are different kinds, of course. Some is more fertile than others. But each is designed to help certain things grow.”
Loren G. Warnemuende, Exile

“In a word, the Future is, of all things, the thing least like eternity. It is the most completely temporal part of time—for the Past is frozen and no longer flows, and the Present is all lit up with eternal rays. Hence the encouragement we have given to all those schemes of thought such as Creative Evolution,2 Scientific Humanism,3 or Communism,4 which fix men’s affections on the Future, on the very core of temporality. Hence nearly all vices are rooted in the future. Gratitude looks to the past and love to the present; fear, avarice, lust, and ambition look ahead. Do not think lust an exception.”
C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters
