  This is what it is to survive. You find what floats and you hold on. Even if it is smaller than you. 
   
   
   
  Holding on is all fourteen-year-old Stephanie Clare Smith can do when she's left home alone in New Orleans during the summer of 1973. As she seeks to ease her solitude through her summer school algebra class, her wandering in the city, and her friendship with a streetcar operator, adults—particularly men—fail her again and again, with devastating consequences. 
   
   
   
  Dreamlike and beautifully paced, this lyrical debut memoir traces the events of one harrowing summer and its repercussions throughout Stephanie's life, including her work with families in crisis and as a caregiver for the mother who abandoned her all those years ago. Through a mosaic of trauma and transcendence, memory and metaphor, scarcity and neglect, Stephanie reveals how she built connections in and to a world that had largely left her behind. Her hard-won survival echoes that of countless other survivors whose stories are never told, and her strength stands as a testament to the power of creativity.

  The Boer Invasion of The Zulu...

  The battle of Blood River, or Ncome, on 16 December 1838 has long been regarded as a critical moment in the history of South Africa. It is the culminating victory by the land-hungry Boers who had migrated out of the British-ruled Cape and invaded the Zulu kingdom in 1837.
  Many Afrikaners long acclaimed their triumph as the God-given justification for their subsequent dominion over Africans. By contrast, Africans celebrate the war with pride for its significance in their valiant struggle against colonial aggression.
  In this account, John Laband deals as even-handedly as possible with the warring sides in the conflict. In contrasting their military systems, he explains both victory and defeat in the many battles that marked the war. Crucially, he also presents the less familiar Zulu perspective explaining the political motivation, strategic military objectives and fissures in the royal house.
  This is the first book in English that engages with the war between the Boers and the Zulu in its entire context or takes the Zulu evidence into proper account.

  When a routine surf trip catastrophically injures her partner, Colette finds herself confronting a new reality where every moment teeters between life and death. As he lies in a coma, she refuses to surrender to despair—speaking words of encouragement in hushed hospital rooms, dreaming of sunrise surf sessions, and drafting poems that capture hope’s fragile flame. Through months of uncertain diagnoses, grueling therapy sessions, and the weight of fragmented memories, their love becomes the compass guiding them both. Listeners will be drawn into Colette’s fierce determination to rebuild a life shattered by tragedy, witnessing small victories—an eyelid flutter, a whispered phrase, a first tentative step—transform into monumental progress. Vivid soundscapes of crashing waves, hushed hospital corridors, and sunrise breezes immerse audiences in a journey that is as much about personal resilience as it is about reclaiming purpose. In a voice that balances raw vulnerability with unwavering resolve, this audiobook reminds us that true recovery isn’t measured by speed, but by the courage to try again—and the power of love to light the way forward.

  New York Times Bestseller  
  “A clarion call, not to arms but to empathy. . . a profound and original book.”—Wall Street Journal 
  Attempting to break the agonizing impasse between Israelis and Palestinians, the Israeli commentator and award-winning author of Like Dreamers directly addresses his Palestinian neighbors in this taut and provocative book, empathizing with Palestinian suffering and longing for reconciliation as he explores how the conflict looks through Israeli eyes. And now, in a new epilogue, Palestinian readers have been given a chance to respond through their own powerful letters. 
  I call you ""neighbor"" because I don’t know your name, or anything personal about you. Given our circumstances, ""neighbor"" might be too casual a word to describe our relationship. We are intruders into each other’s dream, violators of each other’s sense of home. We are incarnations of each other’s worst historical nightmares. Neighbors? 
  Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor is one Israeli’s powerful attempt to reach beyond the wall that separates Israelis and Palestinians and into the hearts of ""the enemy."" In a series of letters, Yossi Klein Halevi explains what motivated him to leave his native New York in his twenties and move to Israel to participate in the drama of the renewal of a Jewish homeland, which he is committed to see succeed as a morally responsible, democratic state in the Middle East. 
  This is the first attempt by an Israeli author to directly address his Palestinian neighbors and describe how the conflict appears through Israeli eyes. Halevi untangles the ideological and emotional knot that has defined the conflict for nearly a century. In lyrical, evocative language, he unravels the complex strands of faith, pride, anger and anguish he feels as a Jew living in Israel, using history and personal experience as his guide. 
  Halevi’s letters speak not only to his Palestinian neighbor, but to all concerned global citizens, helping us understand the painful choices confronting Israelis and Palestinians that will ultimately help determine the fate of the region.
