Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Mary Sellers' husband was offered a Foreign Service position, she was ecstatic. The couple and their children headed for India anticipating whatever might lie ahead. They found the adventure of a lifetime. In a world of fabulous palaces, temples, crowded towns and remote jungles, they coped with monsoons, stalking tigers and strange customs. There were moments of despair, moments of joy and moments of terror. They traveled thousands of miles throughout the heart of India, sometimes on tracks so impassable they had to park the jeep and walk through the jungle. As the family encountered a mysterious land, they learned from their experiences and the individuals they came to know and love. The book offers readers a chance to share the romance, beauty and surprises of a journey that changed this family's lives forever.

Download or read book Moving the Palace written by Charif Majdalani and published by New Vessel Press. This book was released on 2017-03-20 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A Middle Eastern heart-of-darkness tale that flows like a dream . . . Crackling with razor-sharp humor” (The New York Times). At the dawn of the twentieth century, a young Lebanese explorer leaves the Levant for the wilds of Africa, encountering an eccentric English colonel in Sudan and enlisting in his service. In this lush chronicle of far-flung adventure, the military recruit crosses paths with a compatriot who has dismantled a sumptuous palace in Tripoli and is transporting it across the continent on a camel caravan. The protagonist soon takes charge of this hoard of architectural fragments, ferrying the dismantled landmark through Sudan, Egypt, and the Arabian Peninsula, attempting to return to his native Beirut with this moveable real estate. Along the way, he will encounter skeptic sheikhs, suspicious tribal leaders, bountiful feasts, pilgrims bound for Mecca, and T. E. Lawrence in a tent—in this “utterly charming” novel that was a recipient of the Académie Française’s François Mauriac Prize (Library Journal). “Renders the complex social landscape of the Middle East and North Africa with subtlety and finesse . . . Yet one doesn’t need to care about the region’s history, or its present-day contexts, to enjoy Moving the Palace.” —The Wall Street Journal
