Mother Angelica : her life story / by O'Neill, Dan,1948-(CARDINAL)340559;
Many of the people who have seen Mother Angelica on TV or read about her in newspapers will be interested in the comprehensive story of the nun and her accomplishments that unfolds in this affectionate biography. She was born Rita Rizzo in Canton, Ohio, in 1924. Educated in parochial schools, she overcame her supposed dislike for nuns and entered the cloistered order of St. Francis. Warmhearted, humorous and ambitious, young Sister Angelica determined to build a monastery in the South, where only 2% of the population are Roman Catholic. She established a community where she became abbess, Mother Angelica. The account of how she foundedwith little capital or knowledge of the television industry EWTN (Eternal Word TV Network), reportedly the fastest-growing cable medium in the U.S., can make anyone believe in miracles.

Gothic tales / by Gaskell, Elizabeth Cleghorn,1810-1865,author.(CARDINAL)149812; Kranzler, Laura(CARDINAL)799303;
Disappearances -- The old nurse's story -- The squire's story -- The Poor Clare -- The doom of the Griffiths -- Lois the witch -- The crooked branch -- Curious, if true -- The grey woman.Elizabeth Gaskell's chilling Gothic tales blend the real and the supernatural to eerie, compelling effect. 'Disappearances', inspired by local legends of mysterious vanishings, mixes gossip and fact; 'Lois the Witch', a novella based on an account of the Salem witch hunts, shows how sexual desire and jealousy lead to hysteria; while in 'The Old Nurse's Story' a mysterious child roams the freezing Northumberland moors. Whether darkly surreal, such as 'The Poor Clare', where an evil doppelgänger is formed by a woman's bitter curse, or mischievous like 'Curious, if True', a playful reworking of fairy tales, all the stories in this volume form a stark contrast to the social realism of Gaskell's novels, revealing a darker and more unsettling style of writing.
