Nevšední LGBTQ+ romance od autorky bestselleru Červená, bílá a královsky modrá. Třiadvacetiletá August se stěhuje do New Yorku, aby sama sobě dokázala, že její cynický životní postoj je ten jediný správný – nevěří v osudovou lásku a už vůbec nevěří v nic, co by jen vzdáleně zavánělo nadpřirozenem. Je odhodlaná procházet životem sama. A práce v palačinkárně ani stěhování k podivínským ezo spolubydlícím na tom nic nezmění. Není šance, že by se její každodenní cesty do práce mohly stát něčím víc než jen nudnou rutinou. Jenže pak potká v metru nádhernou dívku. Jane je oslnivá, okouzlující a tajemná. Nosí kožený křivák, na tváři jí září hřejivý úsměv a nějakou záhadou se objeví vždycky, když potřebuje August zlepšit den. Netrvá dlouho a August je v tom až po uši. Pak si ale všimne, že na Jane je něco zvláštního. Není jen oldschoolovou punkerkou se zálibou v sedmdesátkách. Je doslova zakletá v čase! A August bude muset udělat nemyslitelné, aby ji z pasti času zachránila. Možná je přece jen na čase začít v některé věci věřit...

As the longest Psalm in the Bible, Psalm 119 comprises 176 verses. Its message sings the praise of Israel’s Law and describes how the faithful should respond to the gift of God’s self-revelation. In The Longest Psalm, Michael Casey offers a meditative reading of each verse of the psalm, intended to be read one at a time, to facilitate a personal prayer and reflection. Psalm 119 brings together elements found throughout the Psalter and the reflections focus on universal themes as well as specific questions of daily life, such as our experience of yearning, service, affliction, and stumbling. Each verse stands alone, intended to be read slowly, like the litanies familiar to Catholic devotion.  Perfect for a brief meditation before beginning the day, Casey invites us to spend time wandering with the psalmist to allow God’s Word to play a significant role in our lives. Through this careful reflection on the longest psalm, readers will discover the text is not merely a psalm to be sung but also a path to be followed.
