Reasons for Hope
Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Spanish literary giant Jose Luis Martin Descalzo (1930-1991) was not only an acclaimed novelist and playwright but also a Catholic priest, theater director, and prolific spiritual writer. An award-winning author of novels, essays, dramas, and poetry, he is best known in North America for his novel God's Frontier (1959). But it is his spiritual writing, built from hundreds of short pieces, that has made his work very popular on the Continent now. His story-filled work reveals at once a deep commitment and wry humor, a profound wrestling with Christian truth and a wonderfully humane and earthy spirituality. Nowhere are these qualities and insights more readily available than in his short pieces collected in four books of Razones or Reasons. In this North American debut, his surprisingly timely and life-affirming Reasons for Hope brings his characteristic warmth and hope to our contemporary situation of fear and insecurity. Book jacket.
