      I was not pregnant before marriage, contrary to the prevalent practice in our society at the time. The belief within our culture was that this would reduce the anxiety of conception for the newly-weds. It was considered unwise to risk not conceiving before one ties the knot. We had made attempts prior to getting married, but it just didn't happen. I guess our long courtship of ten years had created a stronger bond that far outweighed the fear of childlessness.' A remarkable journey of faith. Dr Christina Browne, a consultant psychiatrist, and her husband, Cornelius Browne, a minister and accomplished pioneering visual artist, share how the discovery of the incredible power of the Word not only healed them but is also now the foundation of a new complementary mental health service founded by the duo.

      Maunderings, Musings and Meditations
    • Eine große Stadt, ein sonniger Tag. Plötzlich werfen große Gebilde riesige Schatten auf die Straßen: gigantische Wale schweben lautlos und elegant zwischen den Gebäuden - Blauwale, Pottwale, Orcas. Die Reaktion der Menschen: Schreck, Verwirrung, Angst, Panik. Das Militär wird alarmiert. Soldaten rüsten sich mit Harpunen. Panzer werden aufgefahren. Das große Schlachten beginnt. Politik und Militär fühlen sich von der stummen Invasion der Wale bedroht und gehen mit blinder und brutaler Gewalt gegen sie vor. Die Tiere werden besiegt und das wird gefeiert – bis sich der Blick erneut zum Himmel richtet ... Der scharfe Realismus der Zeichnungen von Tommaso Carozzi illustriert den sanften Wahnsinn dieser von Davide Calì erdachten stummen Fabel. Ein Buch ohne Worte über eine Welt, die sprachlos macht. Für Jugendliche und Erwachsene, die sich über die Themen Natur – Zivilisation - Mensch Gedanken machen.
