Book excerpt: Like all kids her age, Ilse van Elewijk tries her best to survive the jungle of her teenage years, although sometimes it doesn’t matter how much she tries, she can’t seem to fit in some places. Then, one day, she accidentally finds an old box containing some papers and diaries, all belonging to Alice Scholten, a girl her age, who happened to live in the house many years before her. By reading Alice’s old diaries, Ilse immediately understands that something deep links her to the unknown Alice as they seem to share a “sixth sense” as well as other things that, so far, Ilse tagged as simple “oddities”. This discovery comforts Ilse and makes her so bold as to go searching for Alice, now an old lady. From the moment they met, nothing will be the same for Ilse, as thanks to Alice, she finds she is a psychic, a useful gift but that needs to be understood first; something that requires both motivation and a deep knowledge of her own strength… Eva Van Baar is the pseudonym of the acclaimed author of "Alter Ego," "Nothing Outside You," and "There's a Message for You". In 2015, she was nominated for the Nobel Prize for her book “Ilse”. For her stories, Eva Van Baar gets inspiration from her everyday life. She's been writing for a long time, the act of writing has been with her since her kids were little, and she used to record everything to keep track of the events. She decided to write 'Ilse', because there was little in the field of esotericism for young people. She currently lives surrounded by the love of her family and her cats, Noefje and Akila.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I Was Never The First Lady stitches together threads of island and identity until they became one and the same…Guerra’s own unpredictable book is haunting, complicated, [and] linguistically beautiful.” -- The New York Times A lush, sensuous, and original tale of family, love, and history, set against the backdrop of the Cuban Revolution and its aftermath. Nadia Guerra’s mother, Albis Torres, left when Nadia was just ten years old. Growing up, the proponents of revolution promised a better future. Now that she’s an adult, Nadia finds that life in Havana hasn’t quite matched its promise; instead it has stifled her rebellious and artistic desires. Each night she DJs a radio show government censors block from broadcasting. Frustrated, Nadia finds hope and a way out when she wins a scholarship to study in Russia. Leaving Cuba offers her the chance to find her long lost mother and her real father. But as she embarks on a journey east, Nadia soon begins to question everything she thought she knew and understood about her past. As Nadia discovers more about her family, her fate becomes entwined with that of Celia Sanchez, an icon of the Cuban Revolution—a resistance fighter, ingenious spy, and the rumored lover of Fidel Castro. A tale of revolutionary ideals and promise, Celia’s story interweaves with Nadia’s search for meaning, and eventually reveals secrets Nadia could never have dreamed. Translated from the Spanish by Achy Obejas

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Mutilated, as described in Variety, "is about a pair of alternately friendly and quarrelsome floozies in a fleabag hotel in the French quarter of New Orleans in the 1930s. Margaret Leighton plays the one who has inherited an income just sufficient to give her pretensions and keep her supplied with the wine. Kate Reid plays a raucous hag just out of jail on a shoplifting charge. The would-be genteel lady is morbidly senstive about being physically mutilated, having had a breast removed. Her harpy companion, Williams seems to be saying, is spiritually deformed, having suffered the cruelty of fellow humans. The implication is that all of us are maimed in some form or other. The play is written as a sort of Christmas parable, with a chorus of incidental characters singing hymns resembling carols ..."--Back cover.
