Book excerpt: At the center of the story is Mary, a graduate student from England who has taken a job at a hostess lounge in Osaka, Japan, so that she can earn money to travel the globe. Unfortunately, she has fallen in love with Yuji, Mama-san's son, who has an uneasy alliance with the Yakuza. Watanabe, a somewhat diffident cook who works at the Sayonara Bar, has also taken an interest in Mary, and supposedly he can see into a fourth dimension, a manga-infused dimension which allows one to see danger before it happens. And then there is Mr. Sato, who has become a regular at Sayonara Bar, as he tries to escape his wife's ghost. When Yuji crosses the Yakuza, it has dire consequences for them all, and their lives become irrevocably intertwined in this wonderfully imagined debut novel by Susan Barker.

Book excerpt: Once a month, the refinery workers of the Tropical Oil Company descend upon Tora, a city in the Colombian forest. They journey down from the mountains searching for earthly bliss and hoping to encounter Sayonara, the legendary Indian prostitute who rules their squalid paradise like a queen. Beautiful, exotic, and mysterious, Sayonara, the undisputed barrio angel, captivates whoever crosses her path. Then, one day, she violates the unwritten rules of her profession and falls in love with a man she can never have. Sayonara's unrequited passion has tragic consequences not only for her, but for all those whose lives ultimately depend on the Tropical Oil Company. A slyly humorous yet poignant love story, The Dark Bride lovingly recreates the lusty, heartrending world of Colombian prostitutes and the men of the oil fields who are entranced by them. Full of wit and intelligence, tragedy and compassion, The Dark Bride is luminous and unforgettable.

Download or read book Guide to Cuba written by Stephen Fallon and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 1997 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Described by Christopher Columbus as "the most beautiful land that human eyes have ever seen", Cuba is a jewel in the Caribbean. Its vibrant culture and outstanding natural beauty provide a welcome counterpoint to the more familiar turmoil of its recent history. This informative revised edition offers a sensitive appreciation of Cuban history from the days of Spanish colonization to independence, the dawn of the Castro era, and the 1994 raft exodus. It is also a personal and enthusiastic guide to the island, from advice on the best live salsa music and how to handle the black market, to finding Hemingway's watering holes.
