Описание:
"A Masterpiece."--The New York Times Book Review (editor's choice)
"In The Ruined House a 'small harmless modicum of vanity' turns into an apocalyptic bonfire. Shot through with humor and mystery and insight, Ruby Namdar's wonderful first novel examines how the real and the unreal merge. It's a daring study of madness, masculinity, myth-making and the human fragility that emerges in the mix."--Colum McCann, National Book Award-winning author of Let the Great World Spin
Winner of the Sapir Prize, Israel's highest literary award
Picking up the mantle of legendary authors such as Saul Bellow and Philip Roth, an exquisite literary talent makes his debut with a nuanced and provocative tale of materialism, tradition, faith, and the search for meaning in contemporary American life.
Andrew P. Cohen, a professor of comparative culture at New York University, is at the zenith of his life. Adored by his classes and published in prestigious literary magazines, he is about to receive a coveted promotion--the crowning achievement of an enviable career. He is on excellent terms with Linda, his ex-wife, and his two grown children admire and adore him. His girlfriend, Ann Lee, a former student half his age, offers lively companionship. A man of elevated taste, education, and culture, he is a model of urbanity and success.
But the manicured surface of his world begins to crack when he is visited by a series of strange and inexplicable visions involving an ancient religious ritual that will upend his comfortable life.
Beautiful, mesmerizing, and unsettling, The Ruined House unfolds over the course of one year, as Andrew's world unravels and he is forced to question all his beliefs. Ruby Namdar's brilliant novel embraces the themes of the American Jewish literary canon as it captures the privilege and pedantry of New York intellectual life in the opening years of the twenty-first century.

On the basis of breathtaking beauty, diversity, history and culture, there is perhaps no other country in the world that can rival Pakistan.
Mehrgarh Ruins and excavations in Balochistan have now pushed back the earliest known inhabitants and civilization of Pakistan to the Neolithic period of 7000 BCE. That is, Mehrgarh and Nile civilizations were quite contemporaneous, and may have traded amongst themselves.
The highest concentration of higher than 8000 m peaks are found none other than in the mighty Karakoram Range of Pakistan. The majestic and unrivalled Mount K2 stands tall at 8611 m exceeded in height only by the Mount Everest at 8848 m in Nepal.
The Baltoro Glacier (39 miles long) in the Karakoram Mountains of Pakistan is the second longest non-polar region glacier in the world. Deosai Plateau (Land of giants) with an average height of 13,497 ft. is the second highest plateau in the world. This plateau in Pakistan's Gilgit-Baltistan state is exceeded in height only by the Changtang Tibetan Plateau in China.
In Lahore City alone you will find a dense concentration of Mughal Empire era (1525 to 1857) CE monuments, tombs, mosques, and forts. The marvelous Shalimar Gardens, Badshahi Mosque, Jehangir's tomb, and the Lahore fort can all be visited in Lahore. The Lahore Museum is one of the undiscovered grand Museums of the world. The Wazir Khan Mosque is another gorgeous example of the Mughal era mosques in Lahore. The Lahore fort stands literally next door to the Badshahi Mosque.
Pakistani people are warm, generous, and welcome the visitors with an open heart. What are you waiting for? Come and visit Pakistan and marvel at the outstanding beauty, diversity, culture and cuisine that Pakistan offers. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed

Описание:
Anna and Lena, neighbors on the same floor in a Hamburgian apartment-building on Baumstrasse, are the base for the life-stories of the residents on the floor, to illuminate and fade out. The two girls, one Christian and the other Jewish, grow up in innocent, magical friendship, in an era when the simplest turns to unbearable.
The events in the story, do not linger at the girls childhood; they swing back and forth with life stories of the residents in three apartments. They take you to different periods to Odessa, Cairo, Vienna, Hamburg and more.
The novel is a fruit of the author's (an ex-Iranian Israeli) contemplations on Holocaust. The author deals with the hideous tragedy from an unconventional angle. She brings the reader to ponder on reasons that bring human beings to be the most savage beasts.
From the Epilogue:
When I first visited the beautiful city of Hamburg, I condemned God who had repaid the Germans' savagery and brutality, so lavishly. Every elderly walking on sidewalks, was a brutal Nazi in my eye... Were those German soldiers not sons of mothers? Did they not feel pain, homesickness, fear, hunger and cold? Or maybe they were just emotionless war machines "
This is Namdar's second Novel. The first "Snobar Khanom's Gold Coins" became a hit in three languages, Hebrew, Farsi and English. The book was awarded by the Israeli culture Minister in 2015.

Описание:
Most people would look at Derek and say he'd made it in life. A fun job, a handsome boyfriend, and an exciting life in New York City. But one night, staring at his reflection in the window of the subway as it barrels down Lexington Avenue, Derek realizes he's fooling himself-and everyone else, too.
Derek gets off the train and goes home. Only not home to his tiny Manhattan apartment, but home to Tennessee-which is definitely not NYC.
Home to his family-and to all the other people he knows, or thinks he knows, and who think they know him.
Home to football games, and dive bars, and high school buddies who have known him forever.
Home to old situations...and to new possibilities.
At turns lighthearted, poignant, and surprising, Home Is a Fire is a delightful read for anyone who believes that whoever said "You can't go home again" was mistaken. It's just not exactly how you pictured it.
