Synopsis

The Sun Also Rises is a novel by Ernest Hemingway, first published in 1926. Set in the 1920s, it follows a group of American and British expatriates who travel from Paris to the festival of San Fermín in Pamplona, Spain. The story revolves around Jake Barnes, a journalist and World War I veteran, whose injuries from the war have left him unable to have sex, and his romantic entanglements with Lady Brett Ashley, a beautiful British woman who has fully embraced the sexual freedom the era has given her. The novel explores themes of love, disillusionment, masculinity, and the lost generation in the aftermath of World War I. Throughout the narrative, the characters engage in heavy drinking, fighting, and aimless wandering, reflecting the aimlessness and moral ambiguity of their lives. The Sun Also Rises, whilst initally met with mixed reviews, is now considered one of Hemingway's greatest works and a defining novel of the Lost Generation literary movement.

    Always There Always Gone - A...

    In 1960, six years before Marty Ross-Dolen was born, her maternal grandparents were killed in an airline disaster involving the collision of two commercial jets over New York City. They were traveling from Columbus, Ohio, to seek placement for their family’s iconic magazine, Highlights for Children, on the newsstands. Their daughter—Marty’s mother—was fourteen years old at the time. This genre-bending memoir tells Marty’s story of being raised by a mother in protracted mourning.  
    The fragmented narrative explores Marty’s journey, from personal ways of coping as a child to the evolution of a mother-daughter relationship that matured over time. It is also about her longing to know her maternal grandmother, and through saved letters and photographs from her grandmother’s life, she enters a fantastical relationship that serves to replace one that otherwise could never exist. Ultimately it is about the discovery of truth, in unearthing the story of her grandparents’ deaths and her mother’s acute loss, in freeing her grandmother’s image from the weight of a tragic death, and in Marty’s own delivery from darkness. Beyond that, it is about universal life choices, the ways human beings unknowingly determine their destinies, and the healing powers of truth and love. 
    A PDF accompanies the audiobook that includes the visual elements from the print version.

    The first gem in the Buried Treasures series—stories unearthed from the heart, where memory and meaning intertwine. 
    What do you do when your memories are lost, hidden somewhere deep in the dusty corners of your mind—especially the ones that matter most? 
    Mum & Me at the Hippy Campus is a poetic and heartfelt journey into the foggy halls of memory, where one woman sets out to reclaim the flickering fragments of her mother, lost too soon. Blending memoir with lyrical reflection, this audiobook is both a tribute and a treasure hunt. 
    With a wink and a nod, the author refers to her brain as the “hippy campus”—a playful twist on the word hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for memory. Here, in this imaginary tie-dyed university of recollection, she searches for long-forgotten laughter, the scent of shared moments, and the comforting cadence of her mother’s voice. 
    What unfolds is a moving meditation on love, loss, grief, and healing—told with wit, warmth, and deep emotional resonance. It’s a book for anyone who’s ever wanted to hold onto someone who slipped away too soon… and for those learning to remember again, one gentle step at a time.

    Writing my autobiography has been a lifelong dream of mine upon realizing what my dream actually was at the age of 28 years old. I have endured a legacy of childhood trauma, love, endurance, survival, and happy endings. My story is no more special than the next, I just finally found my voice. I always knew I needed to share my journey in hopes of reaching someone, if not many, and inviting them onto the path of recovery, healing, love, and a promise of real hope. I have faced many demons and survived as well as been embraced by much acceptance and forgiveness. This Universe, God and our paths are what we make of it; we must not lose sight of our dreams. I am thankful if my book touches your life; you, we, us are not alone. You are loved and you do matter. Thank you for picking up my book and sticking with me to the end; I care.
