Summary

Robinson is the first book by Aram Pachyan, which earned him the highest governmental award in Armenia, The Presidential Prize for Literature. The volume is made up of 16 short stories; each story is like a small but sharp painting of various characters. The faces in these paintings look very familiar, like someone you know, or someone hiding deep inside you. An inescapable loneliness of people in the modern world is the main topic of the stories by Pachyan.
This book was published with the support of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Armenia under the “Armenian Literature in Translation” Program.
Available since: 06/08/2020.

    "Another floater surfaced in the Rio Grande last night. It was the headline story on the all-news radio station I listen to on the way to work. Authorities on either side pull twenty to thirty bodies out of the Rio each year, some accidental drownings, some deliberate. What made this one unusual was the fact that he had identification -- and money." 
Human smuggling constitutes one of the less savory aspects of Brady Investigation's case load. Jack Brady, former SEAL and current PI in El Paso, Texas, would rather not get involved, but he's always been a sucker for a sob-story.

    An emotional read in the Seabreeze Farm series, from best-selling author Jo Bartlett... have your tissues ready! 
.A summer to remember... 
Georgia Banks knows she’s living on borrowed time. So, when doctors tell her she’s got one last summer to make all her dreams come true, she’s determined to make every day count. 
The one thing that’s never in doubt, is that she wants her best friend, Gabe, to be with her every step of the way. And so, Georgia draws up her not-a-bucket list with all the things she’s determined to tick off before she goes – number one of which is to spend one last summer by the sea. 
Seabreeze Farm perched high on the cliffs above the English Channel is the perfect spot, and surrounded by the antics of its menagerie of rescued animals and the warmth of the friendship she’s offered there, Georgia starts to believe she can live out all her dreams before it’s too late. 
And just when she thinks there’s nothing left to wish for, Georgia gets another chance at life. But taking it might mean losing the one person she cares about the most. 
As she faces her biggest challenge yet, Georgia wonders if her last summer at Seabreeze Farm will mean the end of her biggest dream of all. 
This book was previously published as One Last Summer at Channel View Farm

'Perfectly written and set in the beating heart of a community, this story is a wonderful slice of Cornish escapism.' Helen J Rolfe
