Synopsis

In "The House," Henry Bordeaux crafts a poignant exploration of familial relationships, memory, and the passage of time, all set against the backdrop of a physical structure that serves as both a setting and a symbol. The narrative weaves a lyrical prose style with rich descriptive imagery, depicting the characters' emotional landscapes intertwined with the house's history. Bouncing between past and present, Bordeaux skillfully delves into themes of nostalgia and loss, revealing how the characters' identities are intrinsically linked to the walls that cradle their most profound moments. Henry Bordeaux, a prominent French writer and playwright of the early 20th century, draws upon his own experiences of displacement and belonging to create this narrative. His keen insights into human emotions, likely shaped by the tumultuous events of his time, provide depth to his characters. Bordeaux's literary career encompasses a broad spectrum of themes, particularly focusing on the interplay of history and collective memory, making "The House" a significant reflection of his philosophical inquiries into existence and heritage. Readers are encouraged to engage with "The House" not merely as a story about a physical location but as a profound commentary on the connections we forge and the spaces that define us. Bordeaux's evocative prose will resonate with anyone reflecting on their own past, ultimately inviting a meditation on what it means to call a place home.

    From Bicycle to Bentley - A...

    Stephen takes the reader from his earliest school days when it became clear he was academically bright, especially in math, attending prep school, winning a scholarship to major public school Uppingham where he won math prizes and, aged 16, passed 3 S (scholarship) levels. By then he had decided to be a bookie. He attended an interview for Cambridge University only because it was on his bicycle route to Newmarket races!
     
    
     
    Unable to work in any gambling job until 18, he set about visiting racecourses by bicycle, staying in youth hotels (17½p per night), eventually cycling to all racecourses in the UK, including several now-defunct courses.
     
    
     
    At 18 he found employment with Beresford & Smith in London; aged 24 he got his first bookie’s license in 1971 and by the age of 40 in 1986 was betting big on the rails at major meetings such as the Grand National, Cheltenham, Derby, Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood, often laying bets to lose £100,000 or more - when money was worth nearly twice today’s value - one of the few bookies who happily stood "toe to toe and traded blow for blow" with big hitters like JP McManus, Barney Curley, Michael Tabor and Harry Findlay.
     
    
     
    In 1998 changes in pitch administration prompted early retirement, and he sold his pitches, worked for a few unsatisfactory years for Corals and then departed the big time - with a Bentley as well as a bicycle, a house in Georgian Bath and a satisfactory bank balance.

    Not That Wheel Jesus! - Stories...

    From the bestselling author of Holy Hot Mess, a laugh-out-loud look at what happens when life goes a direction we didn't expect and we are forced to reconsider the beliefs, assumptions, and stories that have always steered our course.  Mary Katherine Backstrom grew up the most basic of all youth group kids—pH level 14—and her faith only grew as she led youth ministry, served as a missionary, and went on to become a bestselling Christian author. She knew all the practiced, perfect Sunday school answers and was driving happily down the straight and narrow, until one day her young son asked a simple question: will my Jewish best friend go to hell? In the months and years that followed, that single question continued to snowball. MK challenged and reconsidered every part of the faith she’d been raised to accept so completely. Not That Wheel, Jesus! is Mary Katherine’s hilarious journey from certainty to doubt to going nuclear on the socials (“it was my heresy era”), and then of slowly and painfully finding her way back to a different, less defined faith. It’s the heartfelt and achingly honest story of a spirituality that went off the road and crashed and burned in spectacular fashion, right before God and everybody. And then, slowly, through grace and plenty of therapy, grew richer and deeper than she ever could have imagined.

    If you enjoy political, historical or current event humor, take a load of this book.We will take the piss (or make fun of) The Illuminati, it's history and command and controlof every nation under the Sun.As I type this words Queen Elizabeth II is being buried. In this text, no shots will be taken at her life or legacy. It may differ during the audio post production. More knowledge may lead to many changes in your life. Truth is, the older one grows, the we realize, God controls over all, even a redneck cantankerous continues to learn this at almost an age north of 50. You are in for a treat because this version is not available in print, at least the last five or six chapters on audio.If you are a Bible reader, remember the Canaanites sacrificed their children to the god Molech. To me this became one of the cornerstone of these elite formations of this ‘Enlighted Group.’ Then it morphed into secret societies, free masonry, and evolved into controlling governments. Yet the Devil or Satan told Christ ‘All These Kingdoms Are Mine! So why are many of us are surprised after thousands of years, the control and command on Earth resides with him, the 13 Elite families, The Bilderberg Group, the CFR, The WEF, The WHO, The Octagon Group (Geneva Switzerland). In the off news sites, they are known as the Kazazian Mafia. This text is not designed to provide the exact origins of the Illuminati. There are several sites one may visit for this information. This author connects the past constructions of this group, shows how it is divided to conceal itself. The audio version will demonstrate the Red Neck or Southern twangs of pronunciation. Their may exist some decent secret societies but to my knowledge, of they are secret, then how do they help we brothers and sisters? I have read of the White Dragon and the Red Dragon Societies and a MC Club called SOS. Once a soldier in Iraq told us on a Humvee ride in Ramadi he was a member of the SOS. I replied, ‘Well if it’s so secret,
