  Oh… Well! — The Risk of Wounding with Indifference is a powerful testimony written from the edge of silence and the depth of faith. Jorge Madera shares his journey through childhood abandonment, family fractures, disability, and resilience — always anchored in dignity and fire. 
  From the first breath of life in El Paso, Texas, through the struggles of survival, loss, and illness, his story is both deeply personal and universally human. This audiobook unites fragments of his previous works into one continuous voice: a voice that refuses to be silenced, even when the body falters. 
  Inside these chapters, you will hear about: 
  Beginnings and Roots — early family struggles, survival, and faith. 
  The Workshop of the Soul — discipline, silence, and character forged without witnesses. 
  Voices of the Soul — the enduring love of AGAPE and the Quasimodo effect in the brain and beyond. 
  Time and Judgment — the cost of being a witness, the fire that never asks permission. 
  Body and Dignity — karma, invisible pain, and the wheelchair as sanctuary. 
  Love and Mission — family care, fidelity, and a pact of presence. 
  This is not a self-help manual. It is a testimony, a confession, and an offering — for anyone who has ever carried invisible pain, sought refuge in faith, or longed for dignity when the world looked away. 
  Oh… Well! is both wound and witness, scar and fire, silence and song. Above all, it is a reminder that even when life wounds with indifference, the soul can still rise with meaning, purpose, and hope.

  Mutiny - A womans quest for...

  Dorothy Edwards

  Dorothy Edwards, an only child, was born on the 18th August 1902 at Ogmore Vale in Glamorgan. 
   
  Her father was a headmaster and an early activist in the Independent Labour Party.  At age 9 Dorothy, dressed in red, welcomed Keir Hardy on to the stage at Tonypandy during the national coal strike of 1912. She was taught that revolution was at hand, that class barriers would be a thing of the past. 
    
  Dorothy won a scholarship and boarded at Howell's School for Girls in Llandaff before moving to University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire where she read Greek and philosophy. 
   
  Her early hopes to be an opera singer were set to one side after graduating and the death of her father. Instead she took on part-time work to supplement her mother’s pension with whom she now lived. 
   
  Dorothy managed to write a number of short stories which appeared in the literary journals of the day.  She spent several months with her mother in Vienna, all the time revising or writing before embarking on ‘Winter Sonata’, a short novel published in 1928. 
   
  Introductions to several members of the Bloomsbury Group meant a move to London and a division of her time between child-care for the family of Bloomsbury author David Garnett and the promise of an advance payment for her work on a new volume of stories. 
   
  However, Dorothy’s life was starting to spiral out of control; she was attracted to the Welsh nationalist movement but felt that her Welsh provincialism made her, in London at least, feel socially inferior. Leaving her mother dependent on a hired companion consumed her with guilt as did the end of an affair with a married musician. 
   
  On the 5th January 1934, having spent the morning burning her papers, Dorothy Edwards threw herself in front of a train near Caerphilly railway station.  
   
  Her suicide note read: "I am killing myself because I have never sincerely loved any human being all my life. I have accepted kindness and friendship and even love without gratitude, and given nothing in return."

  On July 18, 1924, a mob in Tehran killed U.S. foreign service officer Robert Whitney Imbrie. His violent death, the first political murder in the history of the service, outraged the American people. Though Imbrie’s loss briefly made him a cause célèbre, subsequent events quickly obscured his extraordinary life and career. 
  Susan M. Stein tells the story of a figure steeped in adventure and history. Imbrie rejected a legal career to volunteer as an ambulance driver during World War I and joined the State Department when the United States entered the war. Assigned to Russia, he witnessed the October Revolution, fled ahead of a Bolshevik arrest order, and continued to track communist activity in Turkey even as the country’s war of independence unfolded around him. His fateful assignment to Persia led to his death at age forty-one and set off political repercussions that cloud relations between the United States and Iran to this day. Drawing on a wealth of untapped materials, On Distant Service returns readers to an era when dash and diplomacy went hand-in-hand.

  Jim Morrison Rare Words -...

  James Douglas Morrison was an American singer, poet, and songwriter who was the lead vocalist of the rock band the Doors. Due to his wild personality, poetic lyrics, distinctive voice, unpredictable and erratic performances, and the dramatic circumstances surrounding his life and early death, Morrison is regarded by music critics and fans as one of the most iconic and influential frontmen in rock history. Since his death, his fame has endured as one of the popular culture's most rebellious and oft-displayed icons, representing the generation gap and youth counterculture. 
   
  Together with pianist Ray Manzarek, Morrison founded the Doors in 1965 in Venice, California. The group spent two years in obscurity until shooting to prominence with their number-one single in the United States, "Light My Fire", taken from their self-titled debut album. Morrison recorded a total of six studio albums with the Doors, all of which sold well and received critical acclaim. Morrison was well known for improvising spoken word poetry passages while the band played live. Manzarek said Morrison "embodied hippie counterculture rebellion". 
   
  Morrison developed an alcohol dependency throughout the band's career, which at times affected his performances on stage. In 1971, Morrison died unexpectedly in Paris at the age of 27, amid conflicting witness reports. His premature death made him a member of the infamous 27 club. Since no autopsy was performed, the cause of Morrison's death remains disputed. 
   
  Kristoffer Kristofferson is a retired American singer, songwriter, and actor. Among his songwriting credits are "Me and Bobby McGee", "For the Good Times", "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", and "Help Me Make It Through the Night", all of which were hits for other artists.
