        The Deathmaster

        by Hugo N. Gerstl

        Does the rescue of 1600 men, women, and children justify aiding and abetting the murder of more than half a million others? Under these circumstances, is it morally imperative for one man to bring down an entire government? A young attorney defends an old man accused of criminal libel and must confront these agonizing ethical questions arising from the Holocaust. Jerusalem, 1953-1954. A 72-year-old pensioner, Malchiel Greenwald, publishes a mimeographed newsletter accusing Rudolph Kasztner, Deputy Minister for Trade and a prominent Israeli politician, of being complicit in the deaths of 800,000 Hungarian Jews during 1944, when he was Chairman of the Hungarian Jewish Rescue Committee. Kasztner demands that the State of Israel bring a criminal libel action against the virtually penniless Greenwald for this defamatory publication. Greenwald manages to convince brilliant lawyer and former Irgun “terrorist,” Samuel Tamir, to take on his defense at no cost. On a frigid December day in 1953, Greenwald could not know, nor could he imagine, that he was about to walk into the history of Israel; and that fourteen months later, when the trial concluded and the verdict was announced, the government of Prime Minister Moshe Sharett would be brought down, and the Holy Land would never be the same again. Even today, more than 65 years later, this tale, which has been largely suppressed until now, remains a “hot potato” in Israel. And international bestselling author Hugo N. Gerstl, author of Assassin, The Wrecking Crew, Scribe, and Against All Odds, himself a nationally known trial lawyer, brings the proceedings to the forefront in this riveting historical thriller.

        Sustainable Poverty Reduction in Less Favoured Areas

        by Edited by Ruerd Ruben, John Pender, Arie Kuyvenhoven

        Less-favoured areas with limited agricultural potential or difficult access conditions, support 40 percent of the world's rural population suffering from chronic poverty. While agricultural innovations and rural development programs have begun to be implemented within developing countries, they do not address the specific obstacles faced by this large population. Instead, a targeted approach is needed to identify different resource management strategies for particular types of households and communities as well as creating balanced investments aimed at sustainable intensification of rural livelihoods. Such efforts have been the focus of the research program on Regional Food Security Policies for Natural Resource Management and Sustainable Economies (RESPONSE). Through the study of less-favoured areas in Africa, Latin America, and South and East Asia, development pathways allowing for the careful adjustment of resource use strategies at the field, farm-household and village level are explored.

        by Marguerite Duras, Georg Goyert

        Ja, sie ist sehr heiß, die Küste am Pazifik, unerträglich heiß. Die Ebene ist sumpfig, die Wüste unfruchtbar. Und die Menschen sind bitterarm. Alle drei, die Mutter, Suzanne und Joseph, hatten den Kauf eines Pferdes für eine gute Idee gehalten. Ein Pferd mit Wagen würde hinausführen aus der Gottverlassenheit ihres Lebens, würde sie nach Ram bringen, und beim Anblick von Menschen würden sie Trost und Zerstreuung finden. Das Pferd aber fraß nicht, es ließ den Kopf hängen und war nach acht Tagen krepiert.

        by Volodymyr Rutkivsky (Author). Natalia Kudlak (Illustrator)

        This cheerful and witty book tells the story of the amazing friendship between the boy Severin and a giant goat, who, perhaps unfairly, was called the Аngry Goat. When Severin came to his grandmother's village for the summer, Goat tried to ram him. But then - quite unexpectedly - he became the boy's best friend. Now Severin is not afraid of Goat anymore. Severin gives to Goat the most delicious carrots from his grandmother's garden, and bends the branches of a maple tree for him, because his new friend likes new leaves so much! In return, Goat pushes Severin and his friend on the swing, and makes them laugh with his antics. And one day he even saved a bird that fell out of the nest... Together with Severin, little readers will learn step by step the secrets of a world that opens up to you if you are not afraid to go outside of Grandma's gate for the first time!   From 6 to 8 years, 13006 words Rightsholders: Ivan Fedechko, ivan.fedechko@starlev.com.ua
