        Another Life for Women

        by SU Tong

        Tong Su’s writing style comes across very clearly in this novel about women. In the book, women are no longer the embodiment of beauty. Instead, they are forced to fight just to survive, their main adversaries soon becoming their own sisters. This infighting allows those women on the fringe to wake up and learn to meddle in others’ affairs. This book tells the story of a world of women, as imagined by Tong Su.

        Visionen an der Bucht von San Francisco

        Amerikanische Essays

        by Miłosz Czesław, Sven Sellmer, Peter Oliver Loew

        Die Amerika-Essays, die der polnische Nobelpreisträger Czeslaw Milosz vor fast 40 Jahren veröffentlichte und die nun erstmals auf deutsch erscheinen, haben nichts an Frische eingebüßt. Zehn Jahre, nachdem sich der aus dem Osten stammende Autor ganz im Westen der westlichen Welt, bei San Francisco, niedergelassen hatte, schrieb er ein sehr persönliches Buch, eine Reise zu sich selbst: »Wenn man nirgendwohin zurückkehren kann, muß man das Gegebene akzeptieren. Doch wie soll man damit zurechtkommen? Wie soll man es sich aneignen? Und dabei geht es nicht so sehr um Amerika, sondern um die Zivilisation des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts in ihrer kalifornischen Spielart.« Milosz schreibt über die großartige, aber auch furchteinflößende Natur der amerikanischen Westküste, über die Rolle des Intellektuellen in der amerikanischen Gesellschaft, über Zensur, Henry Miller, Herbert Marcuse, die Religion und immer wieder über den Mythos Amerika. Ein großartiges Panorama seiner Zeit und ein persönliches Bekenntnis zugleich. Die New York Times schrieb: »Milosz klingt wie jemand, der Schritt um Schritt direkt aus der Geschichte kommt und verwundert, aber auch dankbar darüber ist, die unhistorische Luft Kaliforniens atmen zu können.«

        My Life with Lifers

        by Elaine Leeder

        My Life With Lifers Lessons For A Teacher: Humanity Has No Bars "I have always been drawn to darkness," Elaine Leeder writes. "I know I always championed the underdog." As a sociology professor at Ithaca College in the 1990s, she began teaching at Elmira Correctional Facility in upstate New York. When she moved to California, that same desire to help led her to the prison education program at San Quentin. Then, inspired by her lessons, a group of Leeder's students approached her about working with a program the prisoners had established to aid in their long and difficult process of redemption and transformation. She accepted. These members of New Leaf on Life-the San Quentin "lifers"-have been sentenced to terms ranging from fifteen years to life in prison. Unlike Death Row inmates, who will either die in prison or be executed, many of the lifers are eligible for parole after having spent twenty to thirty years behind bars. But too often, they never see that opportunity because of the popular view that they are all "hardened criminals," killers incapable of rehabilitation and unfit to be free. What Leeder has learned, however, is that incarceration does not dictate character. Her students, although they are convicts, are committed to making their time in jail a life sentence in the best sense, not a death sentence. They have gone the extra mile to come to terms with their crimes, and have often managed to redeem their lives. My Life With Lifers shares the journey of a woman "on the outside" as she discovered the true nature of life in prison, and the roadblocks-so many of them unneeded-on the inmates' path to freedom. What Leeder's experiences add up to is both a fascinating human story and a reasoned and impassioned case for prison reform.

In the turbulent days of oppression by the powerful, this girl from the bottom of the society creates a legend with her passion of love and kindness.

        Michel Ezra Safra y sus hijos

        by Amnon Shamosh

        Michel Ezra Safra y sus hijos por Amnon Shamosh “Michel Ezra Safra y sus hijos” es una saga familiar, escrita por el muy bien conocido escritor Israelí Amnon Shamosh. La historia es semi biográfica y toma lugar  de forma parcial en Alepo, Siria, el lugar de nacimiento del autor. El libro describe la vida, las luchas, y la dispersión de una adinerada familia de sirio-judíos durante el curso de tres generaciones, comenzando a los mediados de los años 30. La historia de la familia Ezra Safra es la historia de una familia judía del medio oriente y sus valores básicos tradicionales, los cuales son constantemente desafiados por otras normas, ya sean circunstanciales como universales. Sacudida por levantamientos locales como globales, la familia encabezada por Michel y su hermosa esposa Linda, es obligada a abandonar su hogar, la ciudad de Alepo, durante los disturbios generados por la resolución de las Naciones Unidas a finales de 1947, de establecer el estado judío en Palestina. Michel, un hombre práctico, continúa manejando su imperio económico. Su poder sobre sus hijos parece desvanecerse, sin embargo, aunque aún disfruta de su respeto y cariño. Rachmo, el hijo mayor y su aparente heredero, dirige la sucursal del negocio familiar en Paris, pero su comportamiento como hombre de familia no cumple con los estándares de sus padres. Alberto, el hermano menor, aborrece el negocio familiar y rehuye el curso que se espera que tome. Encuentra una salida en las actividades sionistas clandestinas, incluyendo el “contrabando”  de judíos hacia Palestina. Los otros 5 hijos e hijas Safra emigran a Europa, Estados Unidos e Israel. Lo que más preocupa, obsesiona y perturba a  Michel, no es la situación financiera de su imperio, sino el grave “pecado” que ha cometido. Cuando la vieja sinagoga de Alepo fue incendiada, Michel rescató los rollos de la Torá “Aram de Soba” y logró rescatarlos del fuego. Se llevó un pedazo de su más preciado y sagrado rollo y secretamente lo guardó en una caja fuerte en Niza, Francia. Mientras su tesoro está protegido, Michel interpreta las tragedias que sufre su familia como un castigo divino. A través de la novela, el lector sigue a Michel a través de sus viajes por el mundo, estableciendo asuntos familiares como comerciales. Sin embargo sufre de una débil salud y de culpa de conciencia. La vida de su hijo Alberto, ahora un influyente miembro de una comunidad colectiva en Israel, es completamente  ajeno a él. La saga de la familia Ezra Safra llega a su final cuando Michel muere de tristeza unos pocos días después de la muerte de su nieto durante la guerra de los Seis Días en  1967. Más tarde, Rachmo, que tomó parte en el secreto de su padre, muere de un ataque al corazón al saber que el rollo en Niza ha sido robado. Linda concuerda unirse con sus hijos en Israel, pero rechaza vivir con ellos. Ella escoge vivir una vida solitaria, rodeada de fotos y memorias del pasado. La novela “Michel Ezra Safra” fue llevada a la televisión  como una mini-serie, teniendo un altísimo éxito. Amnon Shamosh nació en Siria en 1929, inmigró a Tel Aviv de niño, y llegó a ser posteriormente uno de los miembros fundadores de Kibutz Ma'ayan Baruch, donde reside hasta hoy en día. Se graduó en la Universidad Hebrea de Jerusalén .Es autor tanto de poesía como de prosa para niños y adultos, su trabajo se ha traducido al inglés, al español, y al francés, y una de sus novelas fue llevada a la televisión en forma de miniserie. Amnon Shamosh ha sido galardonado con el Premio "Agnon", denominado con ese nombre en honor al laureado célebre israelí Nóbel de Literatura, el Premio "Shalom-Aleichem", el Premio del Primer Ministro de creatividad, el Premio de literatura del presidente de Israel, y numerosos premios de literatura adicionales.

        Loving, Lying, and Healing

        Heal an infidelity and renew your love pacts so as not to suffer

        by Tere Díaz Sendra

        Is fidelity an agreement with an expiration date?Does infidelity always involve heartbreak and conflict?After we discovered an infidelity, is it possible to repair and restore trust?Living a committed and loving relationship is a deeply human longing. The issue ofinfidelity (a frequent love conflict) must be addressed by integrating thecontradictions and ambivalences of human nature, particularly on the topic oflove. Infidelity is a very complex phenomenon that is characterized by theexistence of a “villain” and a “victim”. Many times it is explained in a moralistic wayand that prevents exploring the motivations that drive it, the beliefs that supportit and the procedures that complicate it. Love requires commitment andcertainties, while erotic desire opens different paths within the same territory oflove. The correct management of these two forces is key to understanding andovercoming infidelity.

        Neonatal Pig

        Development and Survival

        by Edited by Mike A Varley

        The pig industry is among the most technologically advanced of all the animal industries. Despite this, mortality is about 12% of all piglets born alive. This figure has not altered substantially in recent years, and is considerably higher than for other farm animals. The biology of neonatal mortality in pigs has generally been poorly understood. There is therefore a great need for information on this subject and this book is the first to provide a comprehensive review. The book is divided into three main parts, covering: genetics and physiology of the neonatal pig; the gut and nutrition; and diseases, behaviour and husbandry. Although single factors are often ascribed as the cause of death, it is often the case that there are multifactorial components involved. Written by leading authors from Europe, North America and Australia, the book is invaluable for advanced students, research workers, practitioners and advisers in animal science, veterinary medicine and the pig industry.
