The Composition

BY ANTONIO SKARMETA, ALFONSO RUANO
In a village in Chile, Pedro and Daniel are two typical nine-year-old boys. Up until Daniel's father gets arrested, their biggest worry had been how to improve their soccer skills. Now, they are thrust into a situation where they must grapple with the incomprehensible: dictatorship and its inherent abuses. This sensitively realized story touches a nerve and brings home the uncomfortable fact that some children do encounter issues of this magnitude. Deft realism is brought to the page by Antonia Skarmeta's story and the edgy drawings of Alfonso Ruano, portraying a child's view of a repressive society.

Confident Quakerism

BY BEN PINK DANDELION
After a personal crisis shook his confidence in himself, Ben Pink Dandelion considered seriously the spiritual meaning of "confidence" (literally, to live and act "with faith"). His reflections led him to delve more deeply into early Friends' understandings about spiritual growth and religious development, and to apply those principles to the community of Friends as we practice our faith today. His insights are especially meaningful for liberal Friends, individually and as a society, as we look toward the future. This essay is based on Ben's 2009 FGC Gathering address and a subsequent presentation at Pendle Hill. Discussion questions included.

Conflict In Meetings

2nd, Revised Edition

BY THE COMMITTEE ON ELDERSHIP AND OVERSIGHT OF BRITAIN YEARLY MEETING
Conflict is inseparable from adventurous living. Whether it constrains or liberates depends to a large extent on how we respond to it. This book encourages Friends to seek help where needed: there are lists of resources and useful organizations. The book can be read for interest, for general information or in study groups: discussion questions and practical exercises help us grasp the thorniest issues. This book is for clerks, those responsible for eldership or oversight, and anyone called to deal with potential or actual conflict. It will enable Friends to identify the resources in their own meetings and use them to forge a living peace testimony which is not just about opposition.

Connected Wisdom

Living Stories About Living Systems

BY LINDA BOOTH SWEENEY
Connected Wisdom: Living Stories about Living Systems gathers twelve stories from different cultures that each reveal a unique example of a "living system." A Balinese folktale tells the story of a gecko who cannot sleep because of the sparks from a firefly. He traces the cause of his complaint from one animal to another to the mosquitoes he depends on for his survival. Like this gecko, young readers will understand that all life is inter-related, and will be able to grasp the concept of the living system of "interdependence." - Raffi

A Conservationist Manifesto

BY SCOTT RUSSELL SANDERS
As an antidote to the destructive culture of consumption dominating American life today, Quaker Scott Russell Sanders calls for a culture of conservation that allows us to savor and preserve the world, instead of devouring it. How might we shift to a more durable and responsible way of life? What changes in values and behavior will be required? Ranging geographically from southern Indiana to the Boundary Waters Wilderness and culturally from the Bible to billboards, Sanders extends the visions of Henry David Thoreau, John Muir, and Rachel Carson to our own day.

Consider The Blackbird

Reflections On Spirituality And Language

BY HARVEY GILLMAN
How can we stand next to another human being and talk to them truthfully about God, religion and the truths that matter to us? Harvey has spent five years reflecting on this topic and is a gifted and inspirational speaker himself. The author contends that the way we speak, the way we search for meaning, the way we declare our truths - these are often at the root of such political and spiritual `dis-ease.' The driving force behind this book is how we can use difference compassionately and with integrity. This is a journey through language, using poetry, philosophy, and insights from different religions.

Constructive Spirit

Quakers In Revolutionary Russia

BY DAVID MCFADDEN AND CLAIRE GORFINKEL, OVERVIEW BY SERGEIT NIKITIN
In the chaotic aftermath of WWI, the newly-formed American Friends Service Committee sent a team of six women to join their British counterparts who were helping refugees fleeing from Poland into Russia. Quaker workers stayed on through the famine and the early years of the Bolshevik revolution, providing innovative relief and reconstruction programs, all the while witnessing to Friends testimonies. Constructive Spirit includes dramatic first-hand narratives of their courageous adventures. It examines America's responses to the emerging Communist nation and issues of service, advocacy and witness that Quaker organizations are still trying to balance today. AFSC.
