Dawn (9780809037728)



Two men wait through the night in British-controlled Palestine for dawn--and for death. One is a captured English officer. The other is Elisha, a young Israeli freedom fighter whose assignment is to kill the officer in reprisal for Britain's execution of a Jewish prisoner. Elisha's past is the nightmare memory of Nazi death camps. He is the only surviving member of his family. His future is a cherished dream of life in the promised homeland. But at daybreak his present will become the tortured reality of a principled man ordered to commit cold-blooded murder. Resonant with feeling, "Dawn" is an unforgettable journey into the human heart--and an eloquent statement about the moral basis of the new Israel.

"An illuminating document . . . the plight of traditional Jewish morality confronted with the modern world of power politics and of murder."--Maxwell Geismar

The Barcelona Album : Unretouched sensuality - Photographs by Daniel Bauer (9783952442616)

Swiss photographer DANIEL BAUER showcases his photographic work with the beautiful young women of the magic city of Barcelona. Often provocative, always intense, sexy and emotional fine art nudes that show the female beauty of authentic, self confident and modern women. During the last 5 years Daniel Bauer photographed many women in Barcelona. He encouraged them to explore their sensuality in front of his camera without limits and invited them to move freely without imitating the typical glamour poses or pretending something they didn't feel. The beautiful young women who revealed themselves from their most sensual sides are amateur models and most of them have never before been photographed in the nude. The results of these photo sessions are images of an exceptionally strong sensual vibrancy. Despite of the modern and young look of the photographs, Daniel Bauer sees himself as an old school photographer. Instead of adding effects or enhancing pictures using editing software, he w

From one of China's foremost authors, Jia Pingwa's Happy Dreams is a powerful depiction of life in industrializing contemporary China, in all its humor and pathos, as seen through the eyes of Happy Liu, a charming and clever rural laborer who leaves his home for the gritty, harsh streets of Xi'an in search of better life. After a disastrous end to a relationship, Hawa "Happy" Liu embarks on a quest to find the recipient of his donated kidney and a life that lives up to his self-given moniker. Traveling from his rural home in Freshwind to the city of Xi'an, Happy brings only an eternally positive attitude, his devoted best friend Wufu, and a pair of high-heeled women's shoes he hopes to fill with the love of his life. In Xi'an, Happy and Wufu find jobs as trash pickers sorting through the city's filth, but Happy refuses to be deterred by inauspicious beginnings. In his eyes, dusty birds become phoenixes, the streets become rivers, and life is what y
