Описание:
Fiction. Drama. Art. The "European anti-novel" in all its unrepentant glory is here in THE COMBINATIONS, following in the tradition of Sterne, Rabelais, Cervantes, Joyce, Perec. Shortlisted for the 2016 Not the Booker prize.
In 8 octaves, 64 chapters and 888 pages, Louis Armand's THE COMBINATIONS is an unprecedented "work of attempted fiction" that combines the beauty & intellectual exertion that is chess with the panorama of futility & chaos that is Prague (a.k.a. "Golem City"), across the 20th-century and before/after. Golem City, the ship of fools boarded by the famed D's (e.g. John) and K's (e.g. Edward) of the 16th/17th centuries (who attempted and failed to turn lead into gold), and the infamous H's (e.g. Adolf, e.g. Reinhard) of the 20th (who attempted and succeeded in turning flesh into soap). Armand's prose weaves together the City's thousand-and- one fascinating tales with a deeply personal account of one lost soul set adrift amid the early-90s' awakening from the nightmare that was the previous half-century of communist Mitteleuropa. THE COMBINATIONS is a text whose 1) erudition dazzles, 2) structure humbles, 3) monotony never bores, 4) humour disarms, 5) relentlessness overwhelms, 6) storytelling captivates, 7) poignancy remains poignant, and 8) style simply never exhausts itself. Your move, Reader.

Описание: Many girls who grow up thinking their hair, complexions, and body types determine how beautiful they are often condemn themselves for not looking like someone else or for failing to achieve a superficial definition of beauty determined by society. Thankfully, it is never too late for girls and women to discover their hidden treasures and truths, and then use those gifts to refine, cultivate, and nurture themselves to become a strong female presence that radiates beauty from the inside out. Within an inspirational guide, Glenda K. Rose Freeman shares a road map that helps girls and women enhance their character, self-image, and vision by developing an understanding of biblical truths, becoming the image of God, and actively creating a presence in the world. While leading others down a path of enlightenment, Freeman promotes true beauty and confidence by encouraging females of all ages to embrace their essence of womanhood, diversity, and differences; find balance within the Circle of Beauty; and see in one another what God sees in us. Circles of Beauty is a compass that reminds girls and women that self-acceptance is a beautiful delight that honors the joy of our souls and unifies us to become all that God intended us to be.

Описание: There are many beautiful trees on this planet at the moment who are able to transmit their life and times through to myself by vibration, and then they are able to translate it into words that are accessible to be written. They are happy to see their stories published for all to read. They are very excited to be able to do this and have many stories to share with us, giving us words of wisdom, spiritual insights, love, and compassion while showing their regret for the way we treat them at times. Here is an extract from Augustine, a tree that resides in China at this very moment. He is 1,400 years old and very proud to share his life in what he calls the book. We are very proud of the book that writes the stories of our lives. This has been a long time coming. The world waits with bated breath, for this is the glue that seals us all together. There will be some who will not be interested and there will be others who will love our words and wait for the opportunity to read them all. This will make perfect sense to those who love us. This will be the first time we have ever been able to tell our stories that make up our lives. Our stories have never been printed before. And then he adds, "I have much to say "
Описание: For most of us who would read this, it is beyond belief that a leader of any country would issue orders that would lead to the deliberate starvation of millions of his own people. But that is what Stalin started in the Ukraine in 1929. Equally hard to imagine, is the authorization of the murder of millions of Jews and others by Hitler. Vallie not only lived during that starvation but survived nearly ten months in Auschwitz. Rescued by a German officer, she was trained to be a war nurse for Germany and then volunteered to work on the front lines of battle. How that all came to happen is the story of the neighbor I came to know as Vallie. I just knew her as someone who loved bright colors, painted beautiful flowers, and enjoyed making cookies and having tea with friends. But it was over time, tea and cookies the stories began to unfold. Not all were hard to hear. Survivors seem to have an ability to see humor in themselves and some of the situations they find themselves in. For Vallie, it was her own disbelief at some of the things she managed to do while a nurse working on the front lines of battle. Other humor emerges in the USA working as a nurse in a doctor's office while learning English. I would add this. Nothing about starving and nothing about Auschwitz was ever funny. Nothing.

Описание: America`s First Soldiers unfolds with the critical events and people that lead Massachusetts to initiate the American Revolutionary War. These first soldiers were the catalyst for the skirmish at Lexington Green, the battle of the Old North Bridge, and the life and death struggle along a 16-mile road, passing through six Massachusetts towns in a violent, running battle of fire and maneuver. Dig in on the deadly struggle for a Boston hilltop, Breed`s Hill, known as Bunker Hill. For the British Army, it was the deadliest battle of the American Revolutionary War. This battle, more than any other event, created the moment Massachusetts and the other colonies realized the American Revolution had begun. Meet a young Boston bookseller who believed he could bomb the mighty British army out of Boston. He became Washington`s Yankee, standing with him from Boston to victory at Yorktown. He was the man General Washington personally chose to succeed him as the Continental Army`s commanding general. America`s First Soldiers is the account of extraordinary men whose defeat of the British was so thorough, that during the eight-year struggle of the American Revolutionary War the British never again fought in Massachusetts. Part 1 of this book chronicles America`s First Soldiers. Part 2 visits some of the well-preserved and fascinating sites in Massachusetts as a 21st-century historical tourist. This book uncovers the hidden story of the men from Massachusetts-America`s First Soldiers.
