They both have secrets. But neither dare to speak of them...Luca feigns personal questions. When he isn't hiding behind the lens of a camera, he assumes a suave Italian façade in order to avoid acknowledging his true ethnicity and jaded past. Luca prefers black and white film because it makes the world seem simple and uncomplicated. Savannah is a small-town southern girl just trying to pick up the pieces of her shattered family after the devastating loss of her older brother, Tommy, a soldier killed on deployment in Afghanistan. With Tommy gone, Savannah floats aimlessly through nursing school, finding herself in places the two of them would frequent just to feel something again. Savannah sees the loss in Luca's eyes. She is drawn to his pain because, maybe for a moment, it lets her forget her own. As frost settles on the south Georgia streets, Luca's past boils over into the present. Perhaps, it is love. Or perhaps, they merely longed for a time and place that never existed.
From the author of "Kundun" comes a powerful work that reveals the true horrors behind China's "liberation" of Tibet. 16-page insert.
Blood, Tears, and IV's, a memoir of a combat medic, explores the challenging and emotional experiences of one twenty-four-year-old combat medic serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom with the 173rd Airborne Brigade, based out of Vicenza, Italy. Sergeant Elissa Lonsdale, the author, was sent to Iraq on the Fourth of July, 2003. She knew the situation she was going into would be a difficult one. Based on her journal she kept while she was in Iraq, this book details her most memorable situations. Some are positive, and others were difficult to put into words. With a major part of the Army still deployed and continuing to deploy, Sergeant Lonsdale wanted to share her memories, as they will stick with her always. "You realize when you get back that there is no way to erase bad memories, only ways to try and make sense of them." Sergeant Lonsdale participated in the treatment of combat casualties, including soldiers, civilians and Iraqis. She recounts in this book her many strange date-related events, such as when her convoy was ambushed on her birthday; she lost a fellow medic to a stroke; another soldier and friend was electrocuted doing his job on Christmas Eve; many missions to villages surrounded by Iraqi children; rendering care to the sick and wounded; and the bond she formed with the medics she was deployed with. Sergeant Lonsdale is still serving on active duty in the Army and currently holds a position in an emergency room as a shift leader.
Since 1959, when China claimed power over this tiny mountain nation, more than one million Tibetans are believed to have perished by starvation, execution, imprisonment, and abortive uprisings. Many thousands more, including their spiritual and political leader, the fourteenth Dalai Lama, have been driven into exile.The country has been systematically colonized, so that indigenous inhabitants are now a second–class minority. Not only are Tibetans being squeezed out by Chinese settlers, but there are reports of Tibetan women being forcibly sterilized and of healthy full–term babies being killed at birth. Thousands of Tibetans languish in prison and suffer appalling torture. Rich mineral resources have been plundered and the delicate ecosystem devastated. Buddhism, the life blood of Tibet, has been ruthlessly suppressed.Mary Craig tells the story of Tibet with candor and power. Based upon extensive research and interviews with large numbers of refugees now living in exile in India, this book presents four decades of religious persecution, environmental devastation, and human atrocities that have caused Tibetans to weep "tears of blood."
Tears of Blood contains poetic renderings of selected Urdu verse of Mirza Muhammad Asadullah Khan Ghalib (1797-1869). These sixty-two ghazals and ninety other shers in English translation, present to the reader the amazing richness and beauty of Ghalibs poetry. Acknowledged by many as the King of Urdu Ghazal, Ghalib belonged to a period when the Mughal Empire was crumbling and the British ultimately established their paramountcy all over India. His ghazals mirror the vulnerability of Man, his grief and sense of loss, his unfulfilled longings, and his souls yearning for Eternal Beauty and Love. The strains of Sufi thought are clearly discernible in his poetry. Though a Muslim, he was liberal in his outlook towards other religions but ridiculed all ritualism and sectarianism of the priestly class. His poetry is, indeed, timeless and he remains the most oft-quoted poet of Urdu language and literature. His popularity may also be gauged by the fact that almost all prominent singers in India and Pakistan have sung his ghazals at one time or the other. As Ghalib himself proudly proclaimed: These verses that I write, descend from some Unseen Power; The sound that my quill releases, is an angels whisper.
