Sinopsis

Occupied: Civilian Life During World War II reveals the untold story of ordinary people living under extraordinary circumstances. Set in France during the Nazi occupation, this book brings to life the daily struggles, quiet acts of courage, and moral dilemmas faced by civilians caught between survival and resistance.Through meticulous research and vivid storytelling, Occupied captures a world where scarcity shapes every meal, whispers replace open conversation, and even small choices carry weighty consequences. From families stretching rations and bartering for coal, to neighbors deciding whom they could trust, it paints an intimate portrait of life lived under constant watch.This is not a history of generals and battlefields, but of kitchens, marketplaces, and hidden courtyards. It is the story of mothers and fathers, children and grandparents, whose endurance and humanity carried them through the darkest years of the twentieth century.Occupied is both a moving testimony to resilience and an essential lens on the human cost of war, a reminder that behind every headline of conflict are countless lives forever altered by occupation.

    A fascinating account of Russia's famous dissident and the politics he embodies. 
     
     
     
    Who is Alexei Navalny? Poisoned in August 2020 and transported to Germany for treatment, the politician returned to Russia in January 2021 in the full glare of the world media. His immediate detention at passport control set the stage for an explosive showdown with Vladimir Putin. 
     
     
     
    But Navalny means very different things to different people. To some, he is a democratic hero. To others, he is betraying the Motherland. To others still, he is a dangerous nationalist. Navalny explores the many dimensions of his political life, from his pioneering anti-corruption investigations to his ideas and leadership of a political movement. It also looks at how his activities and the Kremlin's strategies have shaped one another. 
     
     
     
    Navalny makes sense of this divisive character, revealing the contradictions of a man who is the second most important political figure in Russia—even when behind bars. In order to understand modern Russia, you need to understand Alexei Navalny.

    This book contains the following titles: 
    Japanese Mythology - Japanese mythology is a rich tapestry woven from the threads of ancient stories, religious beliefs, and cultural practices that have evolved over centuries. At its core, this mythology provides a window into the Japanese worldview, where nature, spirituality, and humanity are deeply interconnected. It reveals how the Japanese people have understood their place in the universe, the origins of their land, and the divine forces that shape their existence. 
    Korean Mythology - The unique characteristics of Korean mythology are closely tied to the geography and history of the region. The Korean Peninsula, surrounded by mountains, forests, and the sea, provided a fertile backdrop for the imagination of its people. Myths and legends often feature these elements as symbolic representations of life, death, and the balance of power between the human and the divine. From the founding myth of Dangun, the legendary progenitor of Korea, to the tales of celestial dragons and fox spirits, these stories capture the dynamic interplay between the mundane and the mystical.
