Sinopsis

In "When the Wilderness Calls – Bertrand W. Sinclair Collection," the esteemed author Bertrand W. Sinclair compiles a rich tapestry of narratives that explore the rugged beauty and relentless challenges of the North American wilderness. Sinclair's distinctive literary style melds vivid descriptions with insightful characterizations, immersing readers in the elemental struggle between humanity and nature. His keen observations of the wild, articulated through a blend of realism and romanticism, frame a larger commentary on existential themes and the indomitable spirit of adventure that characterizes early 20th-century literature, particularly the burgeoning genre of outdoor writing. Bertrand W. Sinclair, born in 1871, was a Canadian novelist and journalist whose life experiences deeply influenced his writing. Sinclair's background in the Klondike Gold Rush and his passion for the great outdoors provided a rich well of inspiration from which to draw. His intimate connection with the wilderness is palpable throughout this collection, embodying the ideals of exploration and self-discovery while reflecting on the harsh yet poignant realities of frontier life. This collection is highly recommended for those who revel in nature's allure and are drawn to tales of human resilience. Sinclair's captivating narratives are perfect for readers seeking an authentic glimpse into the wilderness experience, highlighting both the physical and emotional trials endured in pursuit of freedom and adventure.

    Perfect - Feeling Judged on...

    Social media is replete with images of 'perfection'. But many are unrealistic and contribute to a pervasive sense of never being good enough: not thin enough; not pretty enough; not cool enough. Try too hard and you risk being condemned for being ‘attention-seeking’, don't try hard enough and you're slacking. 
     
    Rosalind Gill challenges polarized perspectives that see young women as either passive victims of social media or as savvy digital natives. She argues the real picture is far more ambivalent. Getting likes and followers and feeling connected to friends feels fantastic, but posting material and worrying about 'haters' causes significant anxieties. 
     
    Gill uses young women's own words to show how they feel watched all the time; worry about getting things wrong; and struggle to live up to an ideal of being 'perfect' yet at the same time ‘real’. It's the wake-up call we all need.

    In The Secrets of Alchemy, Lawrence M. Principe, one of the world's leading authorities on the subject, brings alchemy out of the shadows and restores it to its important place in human history and culture. By surveying what alchemy was and how it began, developed, and overlapped with a range of ideas and pursuits, Principe illuminates the practice. He vividly depicts the place of alchemy during its heyday in early modern Europe, and then explores how alchemy has fit into wider views of the cosmos and humanity, touching on its enduring place in literature, fine art, theater, and religion as well as its recent acceptance as a serious subject of study for historians of science. In addition, he introduces the listener to some of the most fascinating alchemists, such as Zosimos and Basil Valentine, whose lives dot alchemy's long reign from the third century and to the present day. Through his exploration of alchemists and their times, Principe pieces together closely guarded clues from obscure and fragmented texts to reveal alchemy's secrets, and—most exciting for budding alchemists—uses them to recreate many of the most famous recipes in his lab, including those for the "glass of antimony" and "philosophers' tree." This unique approach brings the listener closer to the actual work of alchemy than any other book.

    Elephant Mountain is the gripping tale of Debbie Ethell, a young woman whose fascination with an elephant skull in a bone museum leads her down an unexpected path. What begins as a curiosity about the tragic love story of Morgan Berry, the man who gave us Packy (the first baby elephant born in a U.S. zoo in forty-four years), and Eloise Berchtold, one of the world’s greatest animal trainers, soon becomes a chilling mystery. The couple, each killed by separate elephants they raised, left behind a legacy tangled in secrets, cover-ups, and unanswered questions. 
    As former owners of a secluded elephant farm in the rugged Pacific Northwest, Morgan and Eloise’s lives and deaths hold the key to a truth long buried beneath layers of deception. Determined to uncover what really happened, Debbie draws on her experience as a conservation research scientist and the steadfast support of her best friend, who is facing a life-threatening illness. While navigating the shadows of her own past, including her ongoing recovery from alcoholism, Debbie finds courage and insight from a herd of wild elephants in Kenya, a group she has studied since childhood. Their stories of survival and loss mirror her own as she delves deeper into a mystery that will test her resolve and redefine her future.
