Bravery is part of life, whether in the forests of Kentucky or in the 'jungles' of Los Angeles. Step into this fascinating, stirring epic of two boys swept up by turbulence and chaos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *NOW A NETFLIX LIMITED SERIES—from producer and director Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) starring Mark Ruffalo, Hugh Laurie, and newcomer Aria Mia Loberti* Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist, the beloved instant New York Times bestseller and New York Times Book Review Top 10 Book about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel. In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the Resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge. Doerr’s “stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors” (San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, he illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” (Los Angeles Times).

Book excerpt: For over a hundred years, the Grotto hid its beauty and withheld its evil menace from curious visitors. Few even knew of the Grotto's existence. Within, the Grotto was a natural marvel, a place as beautiful as a Venetian chapel with its marble ceiling, walls and a quiet stream flowing over its smooth floor-a millennium in the making. Beyond the Grotto, something horrific waited to be rediscovered in the dark depths of the forest. Brooklyn, a fifteen-year-old girl, sets off to find mother, who has gone into hiding with a dying man, a father she never knew. Along the way she is aided by an odd band of friends-Tony Jackson, a Tlingit Indian youth she once loathed; Cal, an old Alaskan sourdough; and Bingo Bob, who everyone considers to be the town drunk. Dangerous people are encountered with every turn of the page as Brooklyn gets closer to finding her mother and preventing an environmental catastrophe.

Book Synopsis Promoting Healthy and Supportive Acoustic Environments: Going beyond the Quietness by : Francesco Aletta
Download or read book Promoting Healthy and Supportive Acoustic Environments: Going beyond the Quietness written by Francesco Aletta and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers 14 original contributions published in an IJERPH Special Issue that deal with the perception of environmental sounds and how such sounds are likely to affect human quality of life and well-being and the experience of a place. The research focus over the years has been gradually shifting from treating sound simply as “noise” and something that cities should get rid of to a potential “resource” to promote and support community life in public spaces. Three main topics or “needs” to be addressed by researchers and practitioners emerged from this Special Issue: (1) the need to re-think “quietness” in cities as something that goes beyond the mere “pursuit of silence”, (2) the need to integrate additional contextual factors in the characterization and management of urban acoustic environments for public health, and (3) the need to consider the acoustic quality of indoor spaces as opposed to an outdoor-only perspective. The contributions collected in this book will hopefully trigger new questions and inform the agenda of future researchers and practitioners in the environmental acoustics domain.
Book Synopsis Inside the Priory of Sion by : Robert Howells
Download or read book Inside the Priory of Sion written by Robert Howells and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to pull back the curtain on the secrets of the Priory of Sion—the ultra-reclusive secret society thrust into the limelight by Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code For years they have hidden in the shadows, lurking behind other secret societies . . . until now. In this revelatory book, inside sources from the Priory of Sion give exclusive access to some of their best-kept secrets, including proof of the marriage of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. The reason is as sensational as the secrets themselves: the apocalypse foretold in the Book of Revelation, culminating in the emergence of a savior sprung from the bloodline of Christ. Join Robert Howells as he traces the clues to this cataclysm in tombs, temples, churches, manuscripts, and paintings to give readers the truth they need to face the Second Coming without fear.
Book Synopsis DEATH IN THE GROTTO by : Joe McCormack
Download or read book DEATH IN THE GROTTO written by Joe McCormack and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-06-19 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death in the Grotto is the story of a death, perhaps a murder, at Notre Dame University. A student, Ben Pacelli, is caught up in the murder when he finds the body tucked among the stones of the sacred Grotto at Notre Dame. Ben starts as suspect, and is drawn into the investigation of the death of a young woman he has dated. His journey takes him through a post-modern University, as he struggles to find out how the girl died. Suspects include a priest, a linebacker, and a professor of philosophy. The story is interesting, and the writing is crisp, often funny, and more than a little poignant. As the death is unraveled, Ben begins to grow up, and finding the murderer becomes as much a quest to understand as a quest for justice. Vivid characters, interesting situations, and a wonderful sense of place make this book a sharp commentary as well as a good read.

Book Synopsis Weather Architecture by : Jonathan Hill
Download or read book Weather Architecture written by Jonathan Hill and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weather Architecture further extends Jonathan Hill’s investigation of authorship by recognising the creativity of the weather. At a time when environmental awareness is of growing relevance, the overriding aim is to understand a history of architecture as a history of weather and thus to consider the weather as an architectural author that affects design, construction and use in a creative dialogue with other authors such as the architect and user. Environmental discussions in architecture tend to focus on the practical or the poetic but here they are considered together. Rather than investigate architecture’s relations to the weather in isolation, they are integrated into a wider discussion of cultural and social influences on architecture. The analysis of weather’s effects on the design and experience of specific buildings and gardens is interwoven with a historical survey of changing attitudes to the weather in the arts, sciences and society, leading to a critical re-evaluation of contemporary responses to climate change.
