January 2008

Fiction Relaxation Book of the Month

My relaxation book of the month for January 2008 is A Heart of Stone by Renate Dorrestein.

This Dutch writer is considered to be one of Holland's best-loved novelist and I certainly agree with her reputation based on this book alone. It isn't your typical happy novel, that's for sure.

It's the sad story of Ellen and her family who live in Holland while being immersed in a world of news-clipping that only cover the United States of America.

It's a novel about life, death, and other obstacles that life throws at us. The novel is partially set in the years when Ellen was just a kid and twenty-five years later, when Ellen return to the house where she lived as a kid and where a dramatic turn of events damaged her forever.

Non-Fiction Relaxation Book of the Month

My non-fiction relaxation book of the month for January 2008 is Remembering & Understanding Your Dreams by Craig Hamilton-Parker.

While some of us may be able to figure out what our dreams are all about, most of us have trouble remembering our dreams, let alone interpreting those dreams.

This book begins with an introduction of dreams as they are viewed by various past and present civilizations.

It also contains tips and techniques to use to relax at home.
