Lambert St Rose\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA provocative piece of literary work  Provides a vivid exposition of the evil within our midst, the truly dark side of our Saint Lucian culture. Disturbing in its tortuosity, it is not for the faint of heart or those with deep dark secrets. It may be found offensive, inflammatory, and challenging to many of previous eras and also to those in this current era who sing and dance to the words \"I wanna be a billionaire so freaking bad  . . . Wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine . . . buy the things I never had \" A must read, however, for those seekers of wealth, power, and status  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book does a great job of characterizing the escalating problem of depravity of the human soul stemming from social, cultural, and spiritual deficiencies. It begs the question, Has our holy mother, the Catholic church, been able to attain that nexus between Saint Lucia's Afrocentric culture and Christianity? Has our local church been able to challenge and confront what has been deemed acceptable to the bourgeoisie as inherent \"social\/cultural\/spiritual values\" reflected in \"duplicity in religious outlook\"? The book however provides a ray of hope as it culminates in an expression of the beauty of the sacramental life provided by mother church, which is available to all in order to \"put on God's armor so as to be able to resist the devil's tactics.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is hoped that there are still many God-fearing persons in our society who continue to strive for the virtues of honesty and integrity, not willing to compromise the well-being of their fellowman for the sake of an insatiable ambition for power, wealth, and fame  This brilliant exposition then ought to move those who \"possess a genuine soul, a social and moral conscience,\" those who still bear light in their hearts, to bring light and life into successive generations of our beloved country, Saint Lucia, seeking to \"reject evil under all conditions.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 214\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 05, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42669759791200,"sku":"9781496937834","price":58.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/YlFYaGlGekZkZUlTTW9JMURJZ2ZiZz09.webp?v=1774849882","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/in-turbulent-waters-hardcover-2","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
