Download or read book A Guide for the Perplexed written by Jonathan Levi and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A fable of fantastical lushness” unfolds as two women meet in a small Spanish town in this novel from the acclaimed author of Septimania (The New York Times Book Review). Holland and Hanni have come to Spain for two very different reasons. They have nothing in common except their mysterious travel agent Ben. But they soon discover much deeper connections. Stranded overnight because of an airport strike, Hanni and Holland come to realize they share a strange web of history and happenstance―a common labyrinth that stretches back to World War II, the Spanish Inquisition, and beyond. A Guide for the Perplexed is a collection of the letters these women write to their mysterious, unseen travel agent―a long night’s worth of confessions, a tapestry of tales chasing tales, including an untold saga of Columbus’s voyage to the New World, stories of war and lost loves, lost children, lost Jews, and the true origins of baseball. Combining the erudition of Umberto Eco with the ingenious storytelling of A Thousand and One Nights, Jonathan Levi weaves together a provocative reimagining of the discovery of America in this inventive debut novel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautiful, bittersweet WWI romance lights up an English village at Christmas with harrowing secrets, love lost and found, and the breathtaking power of forgiveness. Vivid and achingly real, Sally Nicholls’s latest historical romance explores the fallout from an unexpected pregnancy during the First World War. It’s Christmastime, 1919. Three years before, seventeen-year-old Margot Allan, a respectable vicar’s daughter, fell passionately in love. But she lost her fiancé, Harry, to the Great War. In turn, she gained a desperate secret, one with the power to ruin her life and her family’s reputation, a secret she guards at all costs. Now Margot’s family is gathering at the vicarage for the first time since the War ended. And Harry, it turns out, isn’t dead. He’s alive and well, and looking for answers. Can their love survive the truth? Based on the author’s family history, this evocative and stirring exploration of the human and emotional side of war is young-adult historical fiction at its finest, written with the immediacy and understanding of the complexities of the human heart that are the hallmark of the author’s work.

She finds a powerful man who agrees to help her - with certain conditions. Ignoring the protests of Finn and her crew, Avery accepts.

Download or read book Silent Truth written by Mark Edwards and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-12-02 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you fed up and are not going to take it anymore? Alright, read this book. Strong positive convictions have fallen out of favor, being replaced by expedient pop morality pieces that warp reality. Bluntly worded unpopular opinions critical of minorities, affirmative action, Israel, immigration, bi-lingualism and the current chief executive in Washington D.C. find their way into the trash bin. Immigration is the overwhelming emphasis of this collection of essays, musings, letters-to-the-editor, lists, book reviews, commentary, and authorized opinions. WARNING: Freedoms Denied is best read sober and while not operating motor vehicles or power tools. You are strongly advised to start at the beginning of the book. Do not read this book before going to bed.
