Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fish is an idealistic young composer whose life is in meltdown. Gabrielle is an archaeologist who has uncovered something frightening and needs to get away. The couple escape to economically decimated Greece where they take up residence at the abandoned house of Fish's late father. The arrival of a rebellious lifeguard, a love-struck schoolteacher and an Albanian puppeteer, prompts Fish to follow his utopian dream of creating a new society. But as the heat of the Greek summer rises and tensions in the fledgling 'republic' increase, the unspoilt Aegean shoreline plays host to a series of unexplained events that threatens the future of the community. With the sounds of Fish's imaginary orchestra playing throughout, Thimio's House builds towards an emotional crescendo and a shocking revelation. Lyrical and satirical, funny and sad, sensuous and intellectual, gentle and traumatic, John Kefala Kerr's remarkable debut novel is about the raw unhappiness of modern society and an ancient vision of utopia. ,

Book excerpt: The basis for the NBC event series directed by Lisa Cholodenko and starring Uma Thurman, Peter Sarsgaard, and Zachary Quinto. In this powerful and riveting novel reminiscent of Liane Moriarty's Truly, Madly, Guilty, literary phenomenon Christos Tsiolkas unflinchingly exposes the inner workings of domestic life, friendship, and parenthood in the twenty-first century, and reminds us of the passions and malice that family loyalty can provoke. When a man slaps another couple’s child at a neighborhood barbecue, the event send unforeseeable shock waves through the lives of all who are witness to it. Told from the points of view of eight people who were present, The Slap shows how a single action can change the way people think about how they live, what they want, and what they believe forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oracle at Delphi once guided the paths of kings and commoners alike, from the Temple of Apollo high on Mount Parnassus. At one time, it was considered to be the centre of the world, but in the tiny and peaceful Greek village of Ano Hora, hidden deep in its shadow, life has revolved around herding and harvesting for countless generations, following the patterns of the seasons―interrupted only by the vagaries of the human heart, which time and again had led brave Greeks away from home to fight for causes they believed in. But when those battles start to hit closer to home, things can’t help but change forever. With the onset of WWII, Greece is invaded by German and Italian forces, pitting neighbour against neighbour and brother against brother. Inevitably, WWII gives birth to the Greek Civil War and the Paidomazoma, wherein 28,000 Greek children are abducted by Greek communist rebels, and transported behind the Iron Curtain, in order to “save them” from the royalist, capitalist agenda. This is a story of courage and determination, qualities for which the Greek people are famous, having never surrendered or bowed down to any outside force ... but what do they do when their own ideologies start to tear them apart from the inside? Focusing on a single family from Ano Hora, Appointment in Delphi beautifully showcases the physical and emotional cost of war and the nobility and self-sacrifice of people willing to lose everything they have in order to protect the ones they love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Washington Information Directory (WID) is a "directory," with a unique profile - it is topically organized, and within the taxonomic structure the relevant organizations are listed not only with contact information but with a brief paragraph describing what the organization (whether government or non-governmental) does related to that topic. It focuses on Washington - in order to be listed, an organization must have an office in the Washington metropolitan area. These descriptions are not boilerplate advertising material from the organizations; rather, they are hand-crafted by a talented freelance research team. In addition, WID pulls together 55 organization charts for federal agencies, congressional resources related to each chapter topic, hotline and contact information for various specific areas of interest, and an extensive list of active congressional caucuses and contact details. WID has two appendices, one with thorough information on congresspersons and committees, and the second with governors and embassies.

As the triplets grow into handsome and strong individuals with vast experiences in love, they find themselves entangled in a unique tale of romance, cultural diversity, and extraterrestrial encounters. Marrying three awesome sisters of different religion, the triplets become the focus of their father-in-law’s concern, believing his daughters have been abducted. Wandering through twists of fate, the triplets, armed with mnemonic skills from their casino earnings, end up on an Argentinian ranch. There, they encounter extraterrestrial beings with extraordinary capabilities who guide them in escaping contracted killers and reveal the location of a coveted golden vein. However, their pursuit of the golden vein intersects with a dark plot involving exiled German ex-Nazi generals in Argentina preparing for a Third World War. The triplets, joined by their extraterrestrial allies, embark on a thrilling adventure to eliminate this new global threat. The journey unfolds across the Amazon, where tribal communities celebrate them as heroes. The saga reaches a climax on a new planet inhabited solely by ageless, sexually deprived, and stunning women. Unraveling the mystery of these women’s elixir of life, the triplets discover a dinosaur paradise, confronting both danger and desire. Brace yourself for a rollercoaster of excitement, as this riveting adventure transcends worlds and explores the limits of love, courage, and discovery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I have never seen a man without sorrows, yet the world always changes.” – Romanos Melodos, famous Greek hymnographer A true story of love and loss. After the death of her dearly beloved husband, George, Francesca loses all sense of time and direction. Her life comes to a standstill and her days are filled with despair and loneliness. The love that was supposed to last her a lifetime departs too early, and leaves her feeling as if all doors have closed and life will never have the same joy and lightness of being ever again. She shuts herself in the villa she had built with her husband in Corfu, almost as if she were a statue behind a closed door. Over the course of a few years and some wonderful moments with her petite fée, Marlène, Francesca learns to live again. After George’s death, Marlène promises to visit Francesca in Corfu every year for a week. The time that they spend together during these annual visits leave them feeling enriched and reinvigorated. The conversations they share help Francesca learn to find herself again, and to remember that love never leaves. It surrounds us always, helping us take one step after the next until we find our centre again. This is a true story of love and loss. This is Francesca’s journey from despair to hope, and from lost faith to insightful living.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the end of the Civil War (1949) and the colonels' military coup (1967) Greece underwent tremendous political, economic, and social transformations which influenced gender identities and relations. During the same period, Greece also witnessed an unparalleled bloom in cinema productions. Based on the recently established paradigm that cinema and popular culture viewed as social institutions can inform a historical study, Masculinity and Gender in Greek Cinema explores the relationship between Greek cinema and the society within which it was created and viewed. The book's double analytical perspective on cinema and masculinity advances both the study of cinema and popular culture as historical sources, and of masculinity and gender relations as valid categories of historical analysis. Cinema as a medium of representation, not only managed to reflect on these issues, it also provided a whole new field for their interpretation. This is the first study to explore the dramatic transformation of masculinity and gender roles, as represented in Greek cinema during the turbulent 1950s and 1960s.
