Story
The life of Joseph is one of the Bible’s most cherished stories. After a beloved son is betrayed by his resentful brothers, he must endure years of slavery, false accusations, and wrongful imprisonment. At every turn, Joseph’s faith is tested, culminating in a pivotal question: Will he save his brothers in their hour of need? In this dramatic telling, Dr. R.C. Sproul shows how Joseph foreshadows the greater Deliverer, Jesus Christ, and encourages Christians to trust in the sovereign God who works all things for our good.

Story
Panowanie Elżbiety I wyznaczyło jeden z najświetniejszych okresów w historii Anglii. Narodziny przyszłej królowej rozczarowały jej ojca Henryka VIII, który pragnął męskiego potomka i nigdy się nie spodziewał, że jego córka będzie wybitną władczynią. Jej matka Anna Boleyn została stracona na szafocie, a droga samej Elżbiety na tron okazała się wyjątkowo trudna. Doskonale wykształcona, władająca kilkoma językami, zadziwiła niejednego zagranicznego dyplomatę. Charyzmą i intelektem uwodziła dosłownie wszystkich, niezależnie od płci.

Soprattutto ha una moglie bizzarra (ha aperto una boutique per cani allergici alla lana), una ex in gamba, un'amante artista di vent'anni più giovane e una socia che gli risolve la vita. E adesso sta per compiere i fatidici cinquant'anni.

Allegra ed entusiasta, oppure malinconica e afflitta. Bellissima e fragile, con lo sguardo appena velato da “certi pensieri soffocati”. Così Federica racconta sua madre, la “fantasmagorica mamma bionda” dai gesti istrionici, dal portamento elegante e disinvolto attraverso cui traspare, in filigrana, un’irrimediabile insicurezza. L’autrice scava nella memoria per comporre il ritratto tenero e disincantato di una donna tutta luci e ombre, e al tempo stesso un tagliente spaccato di famiglia incorniciato nell’ambiente borghese di Roma.
