A trilogy of stories about the resurrection of hope in the hearts of people whose lives have been crushed by tragic events.Book One - Prayers for the Soul of a Dying Star - He knew. Going to sea alone and unprepared wasn't the wisest thing to do. But he was too tired to care. And so not knowing if anything ever mattered, he hoisted sail, hoping to find something to set a course for - something bright, like a guiding star. Then the gale hit, with its high winds, thundering waves, and cracking lightning, and all of the stars were obscured, and he figured this was a good way to go - drowning quiet in the din. But the island - uncharted - got in the way of even that.Book Two - Prayers for the Soul of a Raging Moon -She runs the night-with the moon over her shoulder and a small pistol hidden in her shorts-Amy Tamme jogs the dark city streets. Her guilt paces her steps as revenge fuels the beat of her raging heart.Oh, how she misses him-her beloved husband-this man who loved her unto dying-as he saved her from the man that attacked her as she was jogging in the predawn hours those many months ago.And so now she hunts for her husband's murderer, using her body as bait as she runs a path through the darkest haunts of the city…her steps keeping a measured beat to the rage of the pulse in her veins, with the full moon over her back, shining out its call-a false siren of light-for the revenge of her lost and dear man.But then…one night Amy happens upon a newly opened jazz bar, with great live music and the tastiest craft beers, and she makes a new friend. And somehow this wonderful woman is like unto a savior for the rage that is crashing through her exhausted mind, and before Amy can muster the courage to reach out to her, this new friend comes to her instead, and Amy must decide if revenge is now her eternal and dark way going forward with her life, or if friendship and hope is her newly lit pathway. But then she tries to have both…and that can never work…or can it?Book Three - Prayers for the Soul of a Virgin Comet -The most beautiful woman in the world is a virgin. She stands every night at the end of her dock looking up to the stars, hoping for and dreaming of the chance to start her life again. But the nightmare that lies anchored in her past weighs much too heavy on her heart, so she sighs and turns back for the walk to her lonely home. Then one night there appears on the horizon a new light, a comet. And it has purpose-a cosmic mission-and this tragic and beautiful woman is forced to make a fateful decision.

Dans la vie, il faut faire des choix pour soi, mais aussi pour illuminer la vie des autres. Invitée à prononcer un discours, lors de la cérémonie de remise des diplômes d'une prestigieuse université (section poésie et littérature française), Alice Mei Lan a choisi de témoigner d'une manière très personnelle de son parcours étudiant et professionnel, en puisant des exemples dans sa propre expérience de vie. Elle raconte des épisodes de son existence avec humilité, émotion et philosophie. Elle pose ainsi des principes de vie pour aider toute personne qui recherche sa voie (qu'elle soit intime ou professionnelle). Nous invitant à méditer sur le sens de l'existence et des choix que la personne doit faire pour se réaliser dans sa vie. J'ai décidé de me dépouiller de tout ce qui n'était pas essentiel à ma vie, afin de consacrer mon énergie à une activité qui me tenait vraiment à coeur et que j'avais trop longtemps laissée de côté écrire des poésies. Présentation de l'éditeur: Le meilleur des choix reprend dans son intégralité le discours prononcé par Alice Mei Lan devant les étudiants de l'université de Xianzhi le 25 juin 2018, à l'occasion de la traditionnelle remise des diplômes de lettres (section poésie et littérature française).
