Beyond the Window is a remarkable novel, about the reclamation of a piece of wasted desert land by planting the shifting sands with growths that will fix them and induce the formation of fertile top soil. Cory Aguilar, an orphan who has inherited nothing but her mother's beauty, aesthetic nature, and visionary love of romantic adventure, her father's businesslike head and firmness of purpose, and twelve hundred acres of undeveloped desert land in Eastern Washington. Chafing under the benevolent despotism of an acquisitive, Philistine aunt, who has reared her in luxurious idleness in Seattle and on an Edenlike estate in the vicinity. Cory seeks an independent existence in the land of sagebrush, and sandstorms. She finds that her "princely heritage" is lorded over by a mysterious wind, keeping her estate a terrible sand waste, a strange sort of evil that is beginning to overwhelm the adjoining ranches. Stranded and ill equipped as she is, Cory is left alone and destitute to face the dangers and general cursedness of conditions in a small agrarian town, with its envious malice, its backbiting gossip, its traducing intrigues. Success will finally come for Cory when she comes to learn that having a barren ranch is far better than possessing a barren soul. That the failure to be true to oneself has long tentacles that reach far and grip back many things that else had come in blessing to her who lies to her own soul. It is in this revelation that Cory is finally able to look beyond the window.
Artist, columnist, and poet Gertrude McCarty Smith (1923–2007) of Collins, Mississippi, carried herself as a demure and proper southern lady, yet this was deceiving as she was a prolific, creative trailblazer who had collectors and dedicated readers from coast to coast, and even in Europe. She grew up during the Great Depression with only some vivid storytelling and pictures from the family Bible to inspire and kindle her artistic spirit. However, at the age of ten, her career launched when her grandmother coaxed her with a box of crayons to milk the family cow—her seventy-year love affair with the arts was born. Over the years, she would express her creativity in many forms, resulting in thousands of paintings, sculptures, songs, poems, and newspaper columns and along the way a variety of artful cakes, as she ran a celebrated twenty-five-year cake business. Her art appeared in all shapes, sizes, materials, and “eatability.” For most of her early career, Gertrude dabbled with a variety of styles—with subjects mostly centered around life in rural Mississippi and her spiritual life. But in 1980 at the age of fifty-seven, she attended her first Mississippi Art Colony at Camp Jacob in Utica, Mississippi. Over the next fifteen years, she would make her pilgrimage twice a year to be inspired by celebrated guest instructors from around the nation and connect with fellow artists. The Colony was a major catalyst, exposing her to new styles, giving her encouragement and freedom to experiment. Gertrude said of the Colony, “I never knew anything about abstract art, but it fascinated me to no end. Abstract art to me is like a beautiful melody without words. In mixed media, I am in another world and often am surprised at the piece that evolves from the torn watercolor papers. The effect is a kaleidoscope of colors that makes the retinas dance.” This book features more than 150 images; a dozen poems; insightful essays from New York art dealer Stephen Rosenberg, acclaimed southern cultural scholar and curator Pat Pinson, and artist, curator, and instructor Rick Wilemon; along with a foreword by Tommy King, president of William Carey University; and a chronicle of her life’s journey by her son-in-law, Thomas R. Brooks. As Rosenberg has said, “Gertrude Smith is a remarkable and authentic American woman who teaches us that talent and creativity combined with a humanistic spirit is both a state of mind and a state of grace—at any age.” Book proceeds will benefit the Gertrude McCarty Smith Foundation for the Arts to bring access and passion for literature, performance, and visual arts to children in underserved communities throughout Mississippi.

Beyond the Stained-Glass Window by Neville Hodgson Pdf
This book is about one man’s journey to find himself and his place in the world, both spiritually and career-wise, and how his conventional views of the world, encompassing orthodox religion and old conforming and traditional ways, were radically changed by some extraordinary events during early education, travel, a career-switch to clinical psychology, and a powerful dream that led to a profound spiritual awakening. He worked in mental hospitals during the apartheid era and at the time of the un-banning of the ANC, and later began a private practice. The book has some historical value since the author’s grandfather was a great friend of General Smuts and was the Mayor of Benoni, a South African gold-mining town, during the turbulent wild-strike days of 1922, when his grandfather’s house was burned down by white strikers. The author’s mother attended the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games and sat near Adolf Hitler during the swimming events.
