Description:
Mark Raphael Baker was no stranger to death. Over seven years he had become a mourner three times over: for his first wife, for his brother and for his father. When diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, he began to reflect on their deaths, his probable death and on Death as, in the words of Ecclesiastes, a 'season' that produced a large and bitter harvest for the Baker family. Powerful and conflicting emotions assailed him, but their destructive power was always defeated by his love of his family and of life, which never deserted him even when his spirit was most weary. Over the short course of his illness, he came to realise that to love both truly, he must die as the most authentic version of himself he can achieve. It enabled him to die with humbling grace and dignity.


In A Season of Death, readers of The Fiftieth Gate and Thirty Days will rediscover the many forms of Mark's humour, his candour and his depth of thought and feeling, albeit in a different key, as it must be when those virtues reveal themselves in expressions of vulnerability that fend off self-pity.


There is profound sorrow in this memoir but there is matching joy and much love, interwoven by a fine writer and thinker into a story that will deepen one's understanding of life.

Excellent Suit for the Money. Great, rich details.
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
This is a stunning piece of clothing. The material for the vests and pants are so luxurious and make it look like you spent a lot of money. Great versatility and thick material of great quality. The material is made of a rich fabric that feels subtle and gentle, but with the patterns showing well. It fits well and allows for movement. Whether you are looking for a wedding suit, or something to wear to a gala or bow-tie event, this is it.

Buy the suit. Be sure to measure!
Size: Large, Color: Red, Size: Large, Color: Red
Suit looks better than the photo in person. The suit is also made well. Great fabric and pattern! My son is 6'1 and weighs around 135-140 pounds. I ordered a size large for him so the pants would be long enough. The pants were a little big but it was nothing a belt could not fix. The jacket and vest fit well too. The item also arrived on time. ***Suit runs small BUT if you take out time to do the measurements you will get the correct size.***

Fits like a glove, looks like a million!
Size: Small, Color: Purple
Bought this as a gift for him and very impressed. Looks like a million dollars, fit true to size, looks tailored not cheap. Fabric is quality, stitching is done well and the pants have a nice hidden elastic extender that helps if he goes up or down a few pounds. Very impressed!
