Sobre mimI'm a therapist and avid reader; I could spend an entire Saturday curled up with a book in front of the fire. I also love to cook, garden and spend time with family. My wonderful hubby and I share our home with our cats, Rudy and Sam, and our newest cat Max. I was a bookworm from the time I was small, and love books for their transportive and transformative power.
Sobre a minha bibliotecaMy collection is steadily growing; I enjoy reading modern literary fiction as well as the classics. I am also fascinated by literature about other countries; this interest was inspired in part by my husband's deployment to Iraq in 2006 which fueled a desire to know more about the Middle East. My collection has been slowly expanding to include literature from and about other countries.

I received the book today, before I even received your message. Thanks for that. I think it is one I would like to re-read at some point (I often think that, but only re-read a fraction of my stuff). If you see anything in one of my posts that you fancy reading, and its hard to get hold of, I am always happy to send stuff out. I am thinking of releasing a pile of stuff on bookmooch soon. If I do, I'll let the Reading Globally group know.
Cheers,
Andy

I only just posted the book today. Sorry for the delay. I have had a few things going on (job interviews for one) that have sidetracked me a bit. Anyway, it should arrive in a few days.

I don't give star ratings, though I have started to review, so if please feel free to contact me if you want an opinion on anything you find in my library.
Cheers,

I found you in the Middle Eastern Authors group by the way.

We have a really intriguing list of books in common; quite a mix. If you like the No #1 Ladies Detective Agency, you might live Frangipani by Celestine Vaite. I read it for a book group, it's a mother daughter tale set in Tahiti (by a Tahitian author). It's light, but the voice of the main character reminded me very much the No#1 Ladies Detective Agency. Everyone in the group (and this was an Orange Prize reading group; the book was on the long list) liked it and laughed over so many spots it in. A theme of the struggle between the old traditions and modernity also runs through it.
Best, Lois

It's nice to "meet" you. I joined LibraryThing about a week ago, and am a long way from completing the cataloging of my collection. My reason for owning Courage After Fire is different from yours. I'm a psychiatic nurse and a faculty member in an associate-degree nursing program. I team teach a course in psychiatric/mental health nursing to second-level nursing students. One of my topics is violence and abuse. We focus on individual crime victimization, domestic and family violence, and then broaden our scope to look at the effects of disaster, terrorism, and war. Most of my students will not be working with the severely mentally ill after they graduate, but they will all encounter ordinary persons who experience extraordinary life events. I help them begin to develop the knowledge and skills to care for these persons, whether in their professional or personal lives. Courage After Fire is a good resource. Am open to other suggestions from you or anyone else who reads this. Thinking about starting a group, but first need to make greater headway with cataloging.
Happy New Year to you, your husband, and the cats.
