Описание: From Grammy-winning musical icon and legendary bassist Victor L. Wooten comes an inspiring parable of music, life, and the difference between playing all the right notes...and feeling them.The Music Lesson is the story of a struggling young musician who wanted music to be his life, and who wanted his life to be great. Then, from nowhere it seemed, a teacher arrived. Part musical genius, part philosopher, part eccentric wise man, the teacher would guide the young musician on a spiritual journey, and teach him that the gifts we get from music mirror those from life, and every movement, phrase, and chord has its own meaning...All you have to do is find the song inside. "The best book on music (and its connection to the mystic laws of life) that I've ever read. I learned so much on every level."--Multiple Grammy Award-winning saxophonist Michael Brecker

Описание: "It was heartbreaking, but we couldn't give up. I just said, 'Well, I've got to get in and do it.'"--Phil Harris, eight-decade-long resident of Hollygrove As floodwaters drained in the weeks following Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans residents came to a difficult realization. Their city was about to undertake the largest disaster recovery in American history, yet they faced a profound leadership vacuum: members of every tier of government, from the municipal to the federal level, had fallen down on the job. We Shall Not Be Moved tells the absorbing story of the community leaders who stepped into this void to rebuild the city they loved. From a Vietnamese Catholic priest who immediately knows when two of his six thousand parishioners go missing to a single mother from the Lower Ninth Ward who instructs the likes of Jimmy Carter and Brad Pitt, these intrepid local organizers show that a city's fate rests on the backs of its citizens. On their watch, New Orleans neighborhoods become small governments. These leaders organize their neighbors to ward off demolition threats, write comprehensive recovery plans, found community schools, open volunteer centers, raise funds to rebuild fire stations and libraries, and convince tens of thousands of skeptical residents to return home. Focusing on recovery efforts in five New Orleans neighborhoods--Broadmoor, Hollygrove, Lakeview, the Lower Ninth Ward, and Village de l'Est--Tom Wooten presents vivid narratives through the eyes and voices of residents rebuilding their homes, telling a story of resilience as entertaining as it is instructive. The unprecedented community mobilization underway in New Orleans is a silver lining of Hurricane Katrina's legacy. By shedding light on this rebirth, We Shall Not Be Moved shows how residents, remarkably, turned a profound national failure into a story of hope.

Then when she goes to a beach caf and is approached by a mysterious man who seems to know a lot about her, a series of strange and even life threatening events is set in motion that is anything, but touristy. The man invites her to go on an expedition to find a mysterious artifact, but first they must visit a newly discovered Amazon Tribe that ties in with her research into the prehistoric colonizing of the Americas. When she gets to the village she discovers that the native tribe has been waiting for her for a very long time and that she has to finish a quest that was started thousands of years earlier. She learns that the fate of the entire planet lies in the success or failure of this quest. The only problem is that a man that has caused nothing but trouble for her since she first met him will stop at nothing to beat her to the finis and claim the prize for himself.

If you loved his 'fruit series' you're going to relish what's inside his 'shorts' " - Gregory G.
