It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are.

Inviting Silence Universal Principles of Meditation
by
Gunilla Norris
John Marquez
, May 19, 2009
A slim volume -- a mere hundred pages -- but one I've been slowly savoring for months now. Norris' insights into meditative practice are deceptively simple; her voice is gentle, affirming, and encouraging, yet she pierces right to the heart of what sitting in silence is all about. Her reflections, written in poetic form, are as clear and focusing as the sound of a bell. Every word of hers rings true.

Etty Hillesum
by

We read this book in a class I took on mysticism. In the face of Nazi atrocities, Etty embarks on an extraordinary journey of self-discovery and discovery of God, a journey of nothing less than radical transformation. She wrestles mightily with questions of suffering and justice. A fragmentary and moving record of a beautiful life.
