Three young men were chosen that had shown signs of being able to work with those from different backgrounds or ethnic groups. These three men were a Christian, a Jew and a Moslem. When their special training had been completed, they joined the war as intelligence observers. Before long they discovered that some of its allies were not being as ethical as they should be. In fact, some were actually involved in criminal activities. The Australian Government needed to be sure that no Australians were involved, they directed the group to seek out Corruption, Criminal activity and Human rights violations from all sources (including allied forces). Although not a war story," Men with a Mission" shows the tragedies that come from war balanced by the loves & hopes of the future.

Book Choose Somebody Else

  • Author : Yvonne Fein
  • Publisher : Wild Dingo Press
  • Release : 2018-04-01
  • ISBN : 0648215938
  • Pages : 218 pages

Download or read book Choose Somebody Else written by Yvonne Fein and published by Wild Dingo Press. This book was released on 2018-04-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An enthralling, entertaining and compelling collection of short stories that follow the great Yiddish storytelling traditions in tone and style: tackling life’s questions, big and banal, with an evocative, humorous and thought-provoking authority. In each one, Fein excels in drawing the reader into another reality, to experience, to become part of the story and the characters’ lives as they unfold. “Oh Lord, I know we are the Chosen People but just for once couldn’t you choose somebody else?” is an old plea, heartsick yet ironic, and with it these stories lift off on their journey around the world. From Melbourne to the Gold Coast, from Montreux to Jerusalem the tales examine the question of whether it is better to be chosen or ignored by a capricious creator. The stories are discrete but connected by their representations of various generations of the tormented. A mediaeval legend taken from the Talmud is gentle with gender ambiguity yet follows it to its unforeseen end. A tale of magical realism tells of a rabbi, a student who falls in love with him and a shadow-soul from a distant era. The three of them dance together in the present but the shadow-soul takes the rabbi back to a time of corruption and evil. There are depressive lawyers and drunken students and there is a dreamer who finds herself inside the world of the hard-boiled detective. Finally, there is a taste of F. Scott Fitzgerald in the saga of girls living together at an exclusive Swiss school. Both darkness and humour are brought into play to chronicle the disturbances – large and small – bedevilling the protagonists’ lives. Almost all of them are engaged in problematic attempts to flee reality. Many suffer from the legacy of history’s nightmares yet somehow, with mordant wit and melancholic acuity so characteristic of their tribe, many of them find a way to make their journey worthwhile.

Book The Ultimate Laugh

Download or read book The Ultimate Laugh written by Pranesh Prasad and published by Pustak Mahal. This book was released on 2010 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the story of Tim - a bookshop proprietor, his wife, Sandy - an Indian, who are left helpless when the government decides to disenfranchise Indians in their country and Michael Manmohan Ram, who hears of the injustice about to be perpetrated and decides to leave the order and comfort of life in Australia to engage in an act of 'terrorism'. Michael stays with his childhood friend, Tim and finds that he is no longer what he thought he was; that he is now looking at the world through his Western lens. To succeed in his mission he has to try to convince Tim to join forces with him. He also needs the help of Thakur - the deposed Prime Minister, who is now more interested in listening to ghazals than getting his hands dirty in politics. As Michael goes about preparing himself for his day of reckoning he finds that he is haunted by his past - his failed romances and his life lived in both India and Australia, which has the effect of pushing him further into delusion and self-absorption. Does Michael succeed in his act of defiance? Can he restore self-respect to a much maligned community? Is he able to save himself from extinction? In finding the answers to these questions, the reader will be able to view the response of an individual who has found what they were looking for and their behaviour when the first serious challenge to the notion of belonging, home and happiness arises. Through this, light is shed on the process through which 'terrorism' is born and the choices made by individuals who have nothing to lose.
