Book excerpt: Grandfather's Acres is a novel that presents a mixed Jewish and gentile rural community in Eastern Galicia (Ukraine), at the end of the nineteenth century. An Orthodox Jewish family of farmers struggles with the hardships of daily life, tension with their alien neighbors and the changing moods of nationalism and enlightenment that are sweeping through the countryside. Moments of sorrow and those of happiness punctuate the lives of these determined and devoted Jewish farmers, against a backdrop of sometimes frightening political change. The lives and the way of life, portrayed in this novel are told with a deep admiration and love, which serves as a literary testimony to a reality that, 50 years later, went up in flames.

Only one thing was missing: a baby. Despite numerous visits to the doctor and repeated efforts to conceive, the couple was having no luck. That is, until Brenda, Jessica’s secretary, became pregnant./divDIV /divDIVJessica’s plan is as dishonest as it is effective.

After one underhanded ploy, Jessica must deal with a family she never wanted and one that is almost impossible to avoid./div

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within a desert landscape lies a mystery of a cursed past, a young man’s destiny, and a beautiful ghost horse. On the Punta Prieta coastline, along the blue waters of the Sea of Cortez, there is a centuries-old legend of a Spanish nobleman whose ship ran aground. In a mutiny by the impoverished crew, he and his prized possession, a beautiful, fiery Azulejo horse, are brutally murdered. Yet before the nobleman draws his last breath, a curse sounds forth from his dying lips that will echo throughout the generations... As a young man, Donato Perry comes to live with his great-great-grandfather, Don Tomas, on his desert ranch in Baja, Mexico. It is there that he learns to become a seasoned vaquero and seeks to capture a wild azulejo horse, the only horse, it is said, of its kind. But when Donato becomes heir to a precious treasure, he finds himself caught in the curse that must finally be played out and a love that must be won. When author Victoria Auberon was four, her father, a British explorer, took her to live in Baja, California. Many of the characters in My Grandfather’s Horses are based upon real animals she knew in her childhood. From age thirteen to fifteen, Victoria spent three years handling horses on the uninhabited island of Cerralvo, in the Sea of Cortez. As an adult, Victoria has managed horse farms in several states as well as having owned, bred, and trained her own Arabian Horses in the USA.

With his usual unerring eye and elegant prose, Charles Ritchie brings them all to life again, with affection and wit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an interdisciplinary focus on music, memory, and ageing by examining how they intersect outside of a formal therapeutic context or framework and by offering a counter-narrative to age as decline. It contributes to the development of qualitative research methodologies by utilizing and reflecting on methods for studying music, memory, and ageing across diverse and interconnected contexts. Using the notion of inheritance to trouble its core themes of music, memory, ageing, and methodology, it examines different ways in which the concept of inheritance is understood but also how it commonly refers to the practice of passing on, and the connections this establishes across time and space. It confronts the ageist discourses that associate popular music predominantly with youth and that focus narrowly, and almost exclusively, on music's therapeutic function for older adults. By presenting research which examines various intersections of music and ageing outside of a therapeutic context or framework, the book brings a much-needed intervention.

Book excerpt: "Part novel and part autobiography, The Great Fire of London originates in the author's determination to come to terms with the sudden death of his young wife Alix, whose absence haunts every page. Paralyzed by grief, and having failed to complete the novel he had wanted to write, Jacques Roubaud begins a book about that very failure. He submerges his love and his sorrow in meditations that range from despair to playfulness, taking slow and painful steps toward surviving his great loss."--BOOK JACKET.
