This beguiling novel is a provocative romantic comedy centered on a young London calligrapher named Jasper, who is an engaging, intelligent serial seducer and a breaker of hearts. But when he meets Madeleine, a captivating but enigmatic woman who is his equal in every way, he falls helplessly in love. Vulnerable for the first time, he is headed for his comeuppance at last. Jasper is transcribing the Songs and Sonnets of that other great lover, John Donne, for a rich American client. As he works on them (revealing to us the fascinating art of the calligrapher), he discovers that these wise and beautiful love poems illuminate his own experiences -- of the difference between love and lust, of the play of truth and deceit between men and women, of the cost of constancy.

As well as bringing modern London vividly to life, The Calligrapher is keenly observant of contemporary relationships and modern mores. Underlying its sparkling surface are Jasper's wry but heartfelt lamentations about the diminishment of our culture: the trivial masquerading as the consequential, the rising tide of ignorance, the triumph of the lowest common denominator. At once wickedly witty and deeply serious, sweet and cynical, romantic and reflective, this stylish, wonderfully entertaining novel is an accomplished and exciting literary debut.

Jane is a greta teacher
Format: Kindle
I learned a lot. It was clear, informative and the questions at the end were great application questions. I appreciate Jane using personal dreams and walking through how the interpretation happened.

Dream Interpretation Made Clear
Format: Kindle
This is a great book for someone who is a beginner at learning how to interpret dreams as well as for someone who wants to better understand how to interpret their dreams. For me it is the latter, wanting to better understand how to interpret my dreams. I have known that my dreams are God's way of speaking to me about my life but the question has been was I coming to right interpretation or insight that I needed. Jane Hamon gives full explanations and illustrations of the steps that are needed to clearly and correctly interpret what God is saying to the individual. Some of the steps I have been doing but now I know what others steps I need to take in order to have a clearer understanding. Now I will feel better about my dreams. Thank you Jane Hamon.
