The Power of Meaning
Crafting a Life That Matters
Emily Esfahani Smith
Publicist: Rachel Rokicki | 212-782-8455 | [email protected]
Publicist: Hannah Frail | 212-572-2247 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
For anyone exhausted or disillusioned by the pursuit of happiness, here is
the antidote: a book about meaning, a better route to a fulfilling life.
The Power of Meaning draws on philosophy, literature, and the latest research in social
psychology, as well as Emily Esfahani Smith’s prodigious reporting, to introduce us to the
“meaning mind-set.” With a warm, assured voice that moves effortlessly from Aristotle to
Louis C.K., Smith lays out the four pillars of meaning: belonging, purpose, storytelling, and
transcendence. As she plumbs the meaning of meaning, she visits a tight-knit fishing village
to investigate belonging, stargazes in West Texas, experiences the power of storytelling
at a Moth event, and talks to dozens of seekers of meaning—from a former astronaut to
a group of medieval enthusiasts. Finally, she shows us how we can lean on the pillars
in difficult times, and how we might begin to build a culture of meaning in our schools,
workplaces, and communities. Stirring, inspiring, and story-driven, The Power of Meaning
will strike a profound chord in anyone seeking more in life.
AUTHOR BIO
EMILY ESFAHANI SMITH writes about culture, relationships, and psychology for the Atlantic,
New Criterion, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, the Daily Beast, and
other publications. She holds an MA from the University of Pennsylvania in applied positive

SUMMARY
Brunonia Barry, New York Times bestselling author of The Lace Reader,
returns to her contemporary, otherworldly Salem with this spellbinding
thriller, a complex brew of suspense, seduction, and murder.
When a teenage boy dies suspiciously on Halloween night, Salem’s chief of police, John
Rafferty, now married to gifted lace reader Towner Whitney, wonders if there is a
connection between his death and Salem’s most notorious cold case, a triple homicide
dubbed “The Goddess Murders,” in which three young women, all descended from
accused Salem witches, were slashed on Halloween night in 1989. He finds unexpected
help in Callie Cahill, the daughter of one of the victims newly returned to town. Neither
believes that the main suspect, Rose Whelan, respected local historian, is guilty of murder
or witchcraft. But exonerating Rose might mean crossing paths with a dangerous force.
Were the women victims of an all-too-human vengeance, or was the devil raised in Salem
that night? And if they cannot discover what truly happened, will evil rise again?
AUTHOR BIO

Reader and The Map of True Places. Her work has been translated into more than 30

And everyone’s got secrets. The Fifth Petal is a mesmerizing take on the ways the past

Rogue Heroes
The History of the SAS, Britain’s Secret Special
Forces Unit That Sabotaged the Nazis and
Changed the Nature of War
Ben Macintyre
Publicist: Dyana Messina | 212-572-2098
[email protected]
SUMMARY
From the author of Operation Mincemeat
and A Spy Among Friends, the untold story
of one of WWII’s most important secret
military units.
PRAISE FOR BEN MACINT YRE
“Puts other spy tales to shame.” —People
“It should be said loud and clear that Macintyre is a
supremely gifted storyteller. He spins quite a yarn.
His books are absurdly entertaining. I would kill for
his keen wit. He takes us into a world of bounders,
spivs, roués, and men (and women) on the make….
Double Cross is a blast.” —Boston Globe
“Macintyre at once exalts and subverts the myths
of spycraft, and has a keen eye for absurdity.”
—The New Yorker
“[A] complex, absorbing final installment in his
trilogy about World War II espionage….Macintyre
is a master storyteller. Employing a wry wit and
a keen eye for detail, he delivers an ultimately
winning tale fraught with European intrigue and
subtle wartime heroics.” —San Francisco Chronicle
BEN MACINTYRE’s latest reveals the incredible story of
the last secret organization of World War II—Britain’s
Special Air Service, or, the SAS. Facing long odds
against the Axis forces along the African coast, Britain
turned to the brainchild of one of its most unlikely
heroes: David Stirling, a man whose aimlessness
belied a remarkable strategic mind. With the help
of his colleague Jock Lewes, Stirling assembled a
crack team of daring, dangerous men who would
parachute in behind enemy lines to sabotage the Nazi
war machine. In its blunt dismissal of the old rules
of battle, the SAS would change not only the course
of the war, but the very nature of military combat.
Writing with unprecedented SAS archival access,
Macintyre offers a remarkable psychological portrait
of elite soldiers of whom everything was asked.
AUTHOR BIO
BEN MACINTYRE is a writer at large for the Times of
London and the bestselling author of A Spy Among
Friends, Double Cross, Operation Mincemeat, and
Agent Zigzag, among other books. Macintyre has also
written and presented BBC documentaries of his work.

We live in the age of the algorithm. The decisions
that affect our lives where we go to school, whether
we get a car loan are increasingly being made by
mathematical models. In theory, this should lead to
greater fairness: Everyone is judged according to
the same rules, and bias is eliminated. But as Cathy
O¹Neil reveals in this shocking book, the opposite
is true. The models being used today to sort
résumés, grant (or deny) loans, evaluate workers,
set parole, and monitor our health are unregulated
and uncontestable, even when they¹re wrong. Most
troubling, they reinforce discrimination and widen
inequality by propping up the lucky and punishing
the downtrodden. This important book empowers
us to ask the tough questions, uncover the truth,
and demand change.

Tara Clancy was raised in three wildly divergent
homes: a converted boat shed in working-class
Queens, a geriatric commune of feisty, Brooklynborn Italians, and a sprawling Hamptons estate she
visited every other weekend. From scheming with
her force-of-nature grandmother, to brawling on the
concrete recess battle yard of MS 172, to lounging on
Adirondack chairs beside an immaculate croquet lawn,
to holding court beside the characters at her dad’s
local bar, Tara leapfrogs across these varied spheres,
delivering stories from each world with authenticity,
grit, and outrageous humor.
With a light touch but a hard hit, The Clancys
of Queens blends savvy and wit to take us on an
unforgettable strata-hopping adventure, introducing
us to the real people who often escape the popular
imaginings of this city.

TARA CLANCY’s writing has appeared in the New York

History - Modern - 20th Century
In the summer of 1962, one year after the rise of the
Berlin Wall, a group of young West Germans came up
with a plan. Risking prison, Stasi torture, even death,
they would liberate loved ones and strangers from
East Berlin by digging tunnels under the Wall. Among
the conspirators were a legendary cyclist, a Stanford
student, and an engineer who would work on the
tunnel under the English Channel. Two U.S. television
networks, NBC and CBS, heard about the secret
projects and raced to be first to document them
from the inside, planning spectacular prime-time
specials. The Kennedy White House, meanwhile, wary
of anything that might spark a military confrontation
with the Soviets, maneuvered to quash both
documentaries. The Tunnels is “breaking history,” a
propulsive read whose themes still reverberate.

Dear Mr. M
A Novel
Herman Koch
Publicist: Dyana Messina | 212-572-2098 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
The tour de force, hair-raising new novel from Herman Koch, the New York
Times bestselling author of The Dinner and Summer House with Swimming Pool.
Once a celebrated writer, M had his greatest success with a suspense novel based on a
real-life disappearance. It told the story of a history teacher who went missing one winter
after having an affair with a student. Upon publication, M’s novel was a runaway bestseller,
one that marked his international breakthrough.
That was years ago, and now M’s career is fading. But not when it comes to his bizarre,
seemingly timid neighbor who keeps a close eye on him and his wife. Why?
Told from alternating points of view, Dear Mr. M is an intricate tale of a writer in decline, a
teenage couple in love, a missing teacher, and a single book that entwines all of their fates.
With ever-increasing tension, his signature sardonic wit and world-renowned sharp eye
for human failings, Herman Koch once again spares nothing and no one in his gripping new
novel, a barbed performance that suspends readers in the mysterious space between fact
and fiction.
AUTHOR BIO
HERMAN KOCH is the author of eight novels and three collections of short stories. The
Dinner, his sixth novel, has been published in 40 countries and is an international
bestseller. He currently lives in Amsterdam.

SUMMARY
William Shakespeare’s The Tempest retold by Margaret Atwood, New York
Times bestseller and winner of the Man Booker Prize.
“It’s got a thunderstorm in it. And revenge. Definitely revenge.”
Felix is at the top of his game as artistic director of the Makeshiweg Theatre Festival. His
productions have amazed and confounded. Now he’s staging a Tempest like no other: not
only will it boost his reputation, it will heal emotional wounds.
Or that was the plan. Instead, after an act of unforeseen treachery, Felix is living in exile
in a backwoods hovel, haunted by memories of his beloved lost daughter, Miranda. And
also brewing revenge.
After 12 years, revenge finally arrives in the shape of a theatre course at a nearby prison.
Here, Felix and his inmate actors will put on his Tempest and snare the traitors who
destroyed him. It’s magic! But will it remake Felix as his enemies fall?
Margaret Atwood’s novel take on Shakespeare’s play of enchantment, revenge, and
second chances leads us on an interactive, illusion-ridden journey filled with new
surprises and wonders of its own.

Publicist: Rebecca Welbourn | 212-782-9634

SUMMARY
Longlisted for the 2016 Man Booker
International Prize
A beautiful, unsettling novel about
rebellion and taboo, violence and eroticism,
and the twisting metamorphosis of a soul.
P R A I S E F O R T H E V EG E TA R I A N
“Surreal...[A] mesmerizing mix of sex and violence...
vivid, chiseled...Like a cursed madwoman in
classical myth, Yeong-hye seems both eerily
prophetic and increasingly unhinged.”
—New York Times
Before the nightmares began, Yeong-hye and her
husband lived an ordinary, controlled life. But the
dreams—invasive images of blood and brutality—
torture her, driving Yeong-hye to purge her mind
and renounce eating meat altogether. It’s a small
act of independence, but it interrupts her marriage
and sets into motion an increasingly grotesque
chain of events at home. As her husband, her
brother-in-law, and sister each fight to reassert
their control, Yeong-hye obsessively defends the
choice that’s become sacred to her. Soon their
attempts turn desperate, subjecting first her mind,
and then her body, to ever-more intrusive and
perverse violations, sending Yeong-hye spiraling
into a dangerous, bizarre estrangement, not only
from those closest to her, but also from herself.
Celebrated by critics around the world, The
Vegetarian is a darkly allegorical, Kafka-esque tale of
power, obsession, and one woman’s struggle to break
free from the violence both without and within her.

The Fix
How Nations Survive and Thrive in a World in Decline
Jonathan Tepperman
Publicist: Penny Simon | 865-675-1705 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
A provocative look at the world’s most difficult, seemingly ineradicable
problems—and the surprising stories of the countries that solved them.
The Fix offers an unconventional look at global solutions hiding in plain sight. It identifies
10 pervasive and seemingly impossible challenges—including immigration reform,
economic stagnation, corruption, and terrorism—and shows that each has a solution, and
not merely a hypothetical one. In his close analysis of government initiatives as diverse as
Brazil’s Bolsa Família program, Indonesia’s campaign against extremism, and Bloomberg’s
reform of the NYPD, Tepperman isolates the universally applicable measures that can
boost equality, incomes, and cohesion in wildly diverse societies.
Tepperman has traveled the world to write this book, conducting more than
100 interviews with the people responsible for these unexpected success stories.
Meticulously researched and deeply reported, The Fix makes a data-driven case for
optimism in a time of crushing pessimism.

Fiction - Literary
In 1980, a rural Cuban family is torn apart during the
Mariel Boatlift. Uxbal Encarnación—father, husband,
political insurgent—refuses to leave behind his
revolutionary ideals and sun-soaked homeland. His
wife, Soledad, takes young Isabel and Ulises hostage
and flees with them to America, leaving for the
promise of a better life. But instead of settling in
Miami’s familiar heat, Soledad pushes further north
into the stark, wintry landscape of Connecticut.
There, the exiled mother and her children begin a
process of growth and transformation. But just as
the Encarnacións begin to cultivate their strange new
way of life, Cuba calls them back. Uxbal is alive, and
waiting.
Breathtaking, soulful, and profound, The
Mortifications is an intoxicating family saga and a
timely, urgent expression of longing for one’s true
homeland.

some CBS vice presidents; how she discovered and hired Harvey Korman, Vicki Lawrence,
Lyle Waggoner, and Tim Conway; and Carol’s favorite guests and skits for the 11-year

Walk Through Walls
Becoming Marina Abramovic
Marina Abramovic
Publicist: Penny Simon | 865-675-1705 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
From the acclaimed performance artist Marina Abramovic, a memoir
exploring her fascinating life and work, from her dark childhood in
Yugoslavia to finding fame as an artist known for testing and overcoming
the limits of fear and pain.
Marina Abramovic has been making groundbreaking art for 50 years, and now turns her
gaze inward, to reveal her past with utter candor in a narrative guaranteed to shock and
delight.
After withstanding a difficult childhood, she met Ulay, an artist and the love of her life,
with whom she collaborated for 12 years until they ended their partnership dramatically
atop the Great Wall of China.
Marina has performed punishing art to illustrate the courage we find within; she’s been
cut, burned, and had a gun held to her head as the ultimate test between artist and
viewer. Her 2010 MoMA retrospective, The Artist Is Present, drew 850,000 visitors to
sit across from her, nonverbally connecting, and she’s enraptured a new generation of
luminaries who’ve sought her as a collaborator, among them Lady Gaga, Matthew Barney,
James Franco, and Jay Z. Told with a charismatic voice, Walk Through Walls will be the one
piece of Marina’s art that anyone can take home.
AUTHOR BIO
Raised in Yugoslavia, MARINA ABRAMOVIC now makes her primary residence in New York
City and at the Abramovic Institute in the Hudson Valley.

Untitled Memoir
Phil Collins
Publicist: Ellen Folan | 212-782-8944 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
From one of the greatest legends of pop music, an unflinchingly
honest memoir that reveals for the first time the highs and lows of an
extraordinary life.
With 280 million lifetime record sales between his time with Genesis and his earthshaking
solo career, Phil Collins has lived a life that few people can imagine. In this unflinchingly
honest memoir, Collins reveals the heart and soul of what drives him as a performer and
a dynamically creative individual. He takes us from his ill-fated near-big break as a session
percussionist on George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass through the rise of Genesis and
his emergence as the band’s leader to the height of his fame as a solo artist. While Collins
rubbed shoulders with some of the greatest pop stars of the era, his stories are given
depth and color by his remarkable capacity for self-reflection. Whether he’s walking us
through the making of his greatest music or mining the dark days of his wholly enveloping
alcohol and drug addictions, he’s candid, expansive, and always entertaining.
This book will capture the eye-popping exterior facets of Collins’s career but, more
vitally, will delve deeply into the workings of a complex, tireless man to explore the
verve that propelled him from the early days and into a canon of pop iconography few
other musicians can claim to share. Told with ebullience and more than a dose of humor,
Collins’s refreshingly forthright voice will equally charm and enlighten pop culture
audiences and die-hard music fans alike.
AUTHOR BIO
Born in the United Kingdom, PHIL COLLINS rose to fame as the drummer and frontman
of Genesis before establishing his own solo career. He has sold hundreds of millions of
records throughout his career.

Testimony
Robbie Robertson
Publicist: Ellen Folan | 212-782-8944 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
A spellbinding memoir from one of rock’s greatest storytellers. With songs like “The Weight” and “Up on Cripple Creek,” songwriter/guitarist Robbie
Robertson and his partners in the Band introduced a music lexicon, one soaked in the
mythology of the Old South, that has influenced countless musicians. In this remarkable
memoir, Robertson weaves together his rollicking years with rockabilly musician Ronnie
Hawkins; the Band’s formation and trial by fire supporting Bob Dylan on his ’66 world tour,
and the cloistered sessions leading to their unique sound. He recounts his catapult to
fame and takes us through the astonishing album run that culminated in The Last Waltz
farewell concert. Testimony is the story of seismic 1960s change, of how Dylan and the
Band redefined culture, and of the profound friendship between five men who created
music that still fascinates us.
AUTHOR BIO
ROBBIE ROBERTSON was the guitarist and principal songwriter in the Band. He has
produced many movie soundtracks for Martin Scorsese and others, and continues to record
as a solo artist. His most recent record, How to Become Clairvoyant, came out in 2011.

Mike Massimino’s childhood space dreams were born
the day Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon, but
his journey from working-class Long Island to MIT

to the power of teamwork to make anything possible.
Taking us through the surreal wonder and beauty of
his first spacewalk, the tragedy of losing friends in
the Columbia shuttle disaster, and the development
of his lifelong love for the Hubble Space Telescope—
which he’d be tasked with saving on his final mission—
Massimino brings us into a rare, wonderful world
where the nerdiest science meets the most thrilling
adventure, and pulls back a curtain on just what
having “the right stuff” really means.

Why Not Me?
Mindy Kaling
Publicist: Tammy Blake | 212-572-2542 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
Now in paperback, the #1 New York Times bestselling book of essays from
the creator and star of The Mindy Project. In Why Not Me?, Kaling shares her ongoing journey to find contentment and excitement
in her adult life, whether it’s falling in love at work, seeking new friendships in lonely
places, attempting to be the first person in history to lose weight without any behavior
modification whatsoever, or, most important, believing that you have a place in Hollywood
when you’re constantly reminded that no one looks like you.
Mindy turns the anxieties, the glamour, and the celebrations of her second coming-ofage into a collection of essays that anyone who’s ever been at a turning point in their life
or career can relate to. And those who’ve never been at a turning point can skip to the
parts where she talks about meeting Bradley Cooper.
AUTHOR BIO
MINDY KALING is the creator and star of the critically acclaimed series The Mindy Project.
Her first book, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?, was featured on the New York Times
Best Sellers list. She starred as Kelly Kapoor on the Emmy-winning series The Office

more than comfortable inviting people to spend time with her there.” —Washington Post

to lazy, midwinter slow-cooked ragus for intimate pasta
dinners, Tarlow’s recipes are evocative of a time and

of a meal in one of his restaurants into the home. This

ELEVATE YOURSELF
The Power of Women at Work
Sallie Krawcheck
Publicist: Megan Perritt | 212-572-2543 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
Empowers women to elevate themselves and their careers by investing in
their innate female strengths. Picks up where Lean-In left off, showing
how to not only get a seat at the table, but rise to the next level.
Having been the lone woman at the highest rungs of Wall Street, Krawcheck knows what it
takes to succeed as a woman in a man’s world. Rather than lean in further, play the game
better, demand a seat at the table—i.e., act more like men—a better plan is to leverage the
unique traits that make women stronger leaders, better team players, and more valuable
assets to employers: broader perspective, healthier attitude toward risk, greater creativity,
long-term focus, empathy, and more. Women who capitalize on these traits won’t need
to demand a place at the table. It will be offered to them; not out of political correctness,
but out of good business sense. Drawing on experiences from her own career, Krawcheck
shows women how to elevate themselves and their companies by bringing their true
female selves to work.

works. But with that comes the opportunity stand out,
simply by going slightly off script; by doing things just
a little differently from everyone else. Here, Wong
unlocks the power of the Cheat Code through 71 bitesized and virtually effortless short-cuts to get a leg

and our ideas, and accelerate our success.

The American Miracle
Divine Providence in the Rise of the Republic
Michael Medved
Publicist: Megan Perritt | 212-572-2543 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
In the first of two books, bestselling author Michael Medved discovers
amazements in American history that demonstrate how Divine Providence
has steered crucial turns in the nation’s story, and will again.
From the founders to FDR to Ronald Reagan, no leader of our country has doubted the
role of destiny in guiding and protecting the nation they served. In the first of two books,
The American Miracle traces the grace that has touched 10 important moments in our
history, from the discovery of America to the end of the Civil War. Sometimes Medved
reveals the providence behind well-known events, like the “three cigars that saved the
Union.” At other times he focuses on an unknown historical event that had long-term
impact, like the bar brawl the almost shortened a young Andrew Jackson’s life, and
Jefferson’s miraculous change of heart that doubled the size of the young nation. This
sweeping and engrossing historical narrative proves that to move forward with our unique
power and world presence, America must understand that she is justly placed at the
forefront of history and live up to that fateful mandate.

Getting Religion
Faith, Culture, and Politics from the Age of Eisenhower to the Era of Obama
Kenneth L. Woodward
Publicist: Megan Perritt | 212-572-2543 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
The award-winning former editor of Newsweek tells the roller-coaster
ride of religion through the cultural, public, and political landscapes of
the last 50 years of American history.
In this new book, Kenneth L. Woodward, one of the most well-respected journalists in
the United States tells a truly American story about how faith shaped, and continues to
shape, our culture and politics (and vice versa). Recent polls from Pew and others attest to
the changing demographics of believers in the United States. From the myopic optimism
of the 50s, to the civil rights battles of the 60s, to the evangelicalism of Billy Graham and
Bill Bright, to the years of Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush, and Obama, we get
eye-opening answers to the questions: Is religion really an important part of the American
experience? Why do people believe and act the way they do when it comes to religion?
Impeccably researched and thought-provoking, this book looks to understand a topic that
continues to cause devotion and division in equal parts.

In seizing the inspiration that came to him through
Rembrandt’s depiction of the powerful Gospel story
“The Return of the Prodigal Son,” Henri Nouwen
probes several movements of the parable: the younger
son’s return, the father’s restoration of sonship, the
elder son’s vengefulness, and the father’s compassion.
In his reflection on Rembrandt in light of his own
life’s journey, the author evokes a powerful drama
of the parable in a rich, captivating way that is sure
to reverberate in the hearts of readers. The themes
of homecoming, affirmation, and reconciliation
will be newly discovered by all who have known
loneliness, dejection, jealousy, or anger. Coupled
with the lectures that inspired the book and originally
collected in Home Tonight, this special two-in-one
omnibus will be the definitive edition of the spiritual
classic.
AUTHOR BIO
HENRI J. M. NOUWEN was a Dutch-born Catholic
priest, professor, and pastor who gained international

SUMMARY
Tim Tebow, one of America’s most iconic sports personalities, explains
through stories and experiences how he maintains his confidence and
positive outlook in the face of setbacks.
Tim Tebow—football champion, role model, and media sensation—tells how a variety of
experiences in recent years have tested his faith and positive outlook. His professional
football career may not have gone as planned, but in days of adversity and even selfquestioning, Tim has learned that God is always faithful and you always can find the
strength to get back up and stand strong. For the first time since writing his New York
Times bestselling memoir Through My Eyes, Tebow shares motivating and faith-building
insights like these from his fascinating journey:
· Who said normal was the goal?
· There has never been a day in my life where I woke up and said,
“Yes, today my goal is to be average.”
· The world doesn’t get to define you, because God already did that.
· When you make the choice to show up and show out for Jesus,
He will show up and show out for you!
· Win or die, that’s the Tebow way.

People of the Second Chance
A Guide to Bringing Life-Saving Love to the World Mike Foster
Publicist: Brett Benson | 719-264-5661 | [email protected]
SUMMARY
People of the Second Chance contains a powerful message of hope for
anyone burdened by regret and for everyone who longs for a fresh start.
The heart of People of a Second Chance is hope. Every second chance starts with that at
the core. This book will equip the reader to fight for hope for others and also themselves.
Foster’s examination of hope is one part challenge, two parts encouragement. He
forces the reader to ask the following questions: How did I lose it? How do I get it? How
do I give it? Each question is broken down into core concepts that are essential to a life
devoted to the power of second chances: awareness, discovery, ownership, forgiveness,
acceptance, and freedom.
Foster makes good on the name of his ministry: he helps show that God offers a second
chance for all who need hope, grace, or forgiveness. He calls his readers to imagine a
culture infused with second chances, rescued stories, and prodigal parties.
AUTHOR BIO
MIKE FOSTER, Chief Chance Officer at People of the Second Chance, is a gifted leader,

wondering if Joel finally has opened his heart again.

Today more than ever, people need a miracle to
combat the struggles and trials they’re facing. In Find
Your Miracle, Kerry and Chris Shook explore 12 of
Jesus’s miracles, retelling each in modern terms to
help the reader imagine themselves in the miracle,
and determine what that means for their lives. But, as
Shook says, as we seek the miracle we need, we need
to be prepared for the spiritual miracle God wants to
perform in our hearts.
With fear and desperation seeming to be at an
all-time high in our culture, the authors’ message
of miraculous hope from a solid, biblical foundation
couldn’t be better timed. Most “miracle” books lean
toward being either academic or popular. Find Your
Miracle strikes the strong middle chord of biblical
integrity coupled with real-life application. AUTHOR BIO

SUMMARY
Published to coincide with the canonization of
Mother Teresa in September 2016, this book of
unpublished material brings together the holy
woman’s teachings on compassion.
For millions of Catholics and believers from all walks of
life, Mother Teresa’s canonization is providentially taking
place during Pope Francis’s Extraordinary Jubilee of
Mercy, which is entirely fitting because she is seen both
inside and outside of the Church as an icon of God’s
mercy to those in need.
In this beautiful book by a thought leader whose
influence is felt as deeply today as it was when she was
alive, Mother Teresa offers her deep yet accessible
wisdom on how we can show compassion in our day-today lives. A Call to Mercy covers such topics as the need
for us to visit the sick and imprisoned, to honor the dead
and to inform the ignorant, to bear our burdens patiently
and forgive willingly, to feed the poor and pray for all.
Ultimately, it is about creating heaven on earth through
personal service to others.
Featuring testimonials by people close to Mother Teresa
as well as prayers and suggestions for putting these ideas
into practice, A Call to Mercy is not only a lovely keepsake,
but also a living testament to the teachings of a saint
whose ideas are important, necessary, and relevant in the
21st century.
AUTHOR BIO
MOTHER TERESA (1910-1997) was born in Skopje
(present-day Macedonia) and created the Missionaries of
Charity in Calcutta in 1948. Her service to the poorest of
the poor became her life’s work. She was awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize.
