Böcker av Hausleben Paul John Hausleben

Paul John Hausleben's most beloved character returns in a new set of stories and adventures, with Lutheran bishop and pastor, Paul John Henson as the main character and the first-person narrator in this remarkable collection of stories and adventures. The stories allow the reader to venture along as the character, through his classic narration, details more of his extraordinary adventures and captures the pain as well as the joy of everyday life. Set in the timeline of the aftermath of the final adventures of Harry and Paul, these six remarkable stories find Henson now in retirement from his pastoral career and in an effort to rid his mind of, as he describes them, "The Ghosts," Henson is now dabbling as an author. In reflection, Henson details highlights of his long career while working in his often-reluctant profession as a Lutheran pastor, and then as a bishop, and doing his best to guide his friends, followers, and loved ones as they all make their way through what Henson calls, "The twists and turns of life." As Henson does so, the reader gains insight into his writing direction as Henson writes his deepest thoughts in private letters or as he calls them "Chronicles" to his beloved, deceased wife. Letters that contain his innermost thoughts and emotions and his deep love of his wife, all they shared, and his wonderment at the world around him. Letters that Henson writes privately and he writes as if they will never be read, only shared through love. On the other hand, will they be read? The Chronicles of Henson contains the author's usual wide assortment of interesting characters, touches of humor, romance, strong and powerful religious opinions and overtones and a large dose of poignant emotions as told through the words and eyes of Pastor Paul John Henson. At times, the stories are deep, dark, and tearful. Yet, between the tears and the laughs, as it usually is with both the author and the character, the overwhelming message is positive and despite the painful aspects of life, there is much joy too. This collection contains the powerful tearjerker of a story of romance The Silver Locket, which is a short story that fans of the author's romantic stories always rate as one of his best stories of romance. As the author details in his introduction to the stories, "The hidden message from Henson is that the root of life and all religions is really all about love. Dear reader, love him or despise him, who can argue really with Henson on that one?" Enjoy the stories and adventures of this new classic and share the remarkable storytelling magic of Mr. Hausleben combined with some powerful and raw emotions. Readers everywhere are sure to enjoy the ride together.
