The Judas Kiss

David Hare

Oscar Wilde's relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas has inspired contemporary writers for decades. In his account of love tested to destruction, David Hare presents his powerful interpretation of what may have happened behind closed doors between Wilde and Douglas. The Judas Kiss lays bare the drama of two critical moments in Wilde's last years: the day he decides to stay in England and face imprisonment, and the night after his release, two years later, when the lover for whom he risked and lost everything betrays him. The Judas Kiss presents the consequences of taking an uncompromisingly moral position in a world defined by fear, expedience, and conformity.

Cover of Each new day

Each new day

Corrie ten Boom

Each New Day is a collection of short yet profound devotions for every day of the year from the heart of Corrie ten Boom. This remarkable woman of great faith and author of the best-selling The Hiding Place was able to trust and serve God even in a Nazi concentration camp-and throughout each day that followed. In this book, she guides readers on how they, too, can find hope, victory, and wisdom. Based on incidents from Corrie's fascinating life, each day's entry illustrates scriptural principles and attests to God's faithfulness. The result is a year-long candid reminder of the Christian's victory over sin, Satan, and death; of God's promises and care; and that each new day brings a chance to serve and love him more.
