Description:
In this literary memoir, writer and critic Helen Elliott observes her younger years via these letters to eleven influential people in her life.
Helen Elliott's Eleven Letters to You is a profoundly original memoir, an intimate account of growing up in the suburbs of Melbourne in the fifties and sixties, before feminism.
This sparkling, wonderfully absorbing book is written in the form of eleven letters to those neighbours, relatives, friends, teachers and mentors who shaped the young Helen. (It begins in 1950 when she is three and finishes in 1969 when she is twenty-two.) Each of the letters is a homage to the power of memory to recreate life in all its sensuous and indelible detail. And each is a love letter that brings Elliott's marvellous characters-the Misses Stapley, Lois, Mr Cohen and so on-back to life, along with the lost worlds they inhabit.
Helen Elliott sets out to look for answers to one primary question- how did she become whoever she thought she was. She conducts her search through the lives of others. 'I am not the centre of this book,' she says, 'but the hinge holding it together.'
Her search will mesmerise her readers, because of the power and fluency of her voice, and because the vanished kitchens and gardens and fields and streets she conjures up are so unforgettably drawn.
Eleven Letters for You offers us an immersive and deeply moving reading experience. It will appeal equally to fans of Elena Ferrante and Helen Garner.

Husband loved it!!
Got this for my husband on Christmas and he absolutely loves this. The instructions were straightforward on how to build and it took less than an hour to assemble. The lights are pretty cool. They change different colors and there's different settings with the remote. I will say he did have to nail these to the studs in the wall so it can hold his hefty drinks LOL

A royal pain to install
The width of this item is such that it CANNOT be attached to the wall studs. That is unsafe for something that is intended to hold heavy items like liquor bottles. THEN the anchors that come with it are flimsy so we used a heavier different style anchor (threaded). That said, I like the way it looks, and the light effects.

New Bourbon Shelf
I just got done putting it together and hanging it on my wall. It took approximately 35 minutes to put together and another 15 minutes to hang up. I had to use my own larger wall anchors and screws. I tried the ones that came with it but they didn’t do the job. I am happy with it other than that. Good value and quality materials. As you can see from the picture it holds several bottles and room for more if I want. I think the LED lights look great as well.

Mocks dispensational viewpoints on key Thessalonian chapters.
Format: Hardcover
Very good read. You really walk away feeling like an expert in the Thessalonian Epistles after reading this book because Weima always is searching for theological answers to the questions that arise within the Epistles themselves. You really see the deep unity of Paul's purpose in writing these epistles after reading this commentary. The only problems for me where I did not agree with Weima's conclusions was on dispensational issues in 1 Thess. 4 and 2 Thess. 2. Weima rejected the idea of the rapture without dealing with it at all and then proposed the idea that its talking about a "Hellenistic reception" of a king coming into a city. I don't get it, Weima thinks we do go to the sky meet the Lord in the air and then lead him to the earth, it's so preposterous. It seems like God is in control of this event not man leading Christ to the earth. If he wants to criticize the rapture 'which yes I do believe.' Make your argument. But instead Weima just says things like "so called rapture" without refuting it with logic at all. And then in another eschatological text in 2 Thess. 2 Weima rejects any kind of a literal interpretation and says "We can't actually believe that the Anti-Christ actually goes into a rebuilt Jewish temple as some dispensationalists believe." I'm paraphrasing Weima's words. Weima flat out rejects any dispensational viewpoints on these important verses and doesn't deal with them at all like he does other viewpoints. Other than that I think this was a great read. Highly recommend the book.
