Beschreibung

In "Send Round the Hat," Henry Lawson captures the profound struggles and resilience of the Australian bushmen through a series of vivid narratives and evocative poems. This collection masterfully intertwines realism with a deeply sympathetic tone, showcasing Lawson's stark portrayal of rural life during a period of economic hardship. His naturalistic style, characterized by a keen observational eye and colloquial language, draws readers into the raw and rugged landscape of Australia, making it a significant contribution to the canon of Australian literature and a vital document of the country's historical context of the late 19th century. Henry Lawson, often lauded as one of Australia's greatest authors, was influenced by his own experiences growing up in the harsh environments of the Australian bush. His life was marked by poverty and hardship, which profoundly shaped his understanding of human struggle and solidarity. Lawson's writing not only reflects his personal circumstances but also embodies the spirit of the Australian identity, as he sought to give voice to the voiceless and highlight the complexities of rural existence. "Send Round the Hat" is a must-read for those interested in Australian culture, literature, and history. It offers a poignant exploration of community, charity, and resilience that resonates deeply with contemporary audiences. Lawson's ability to evoke empathy and reflect on social issues makes this collection a timeless masterpiece that will engage both new readers and seasoned literary enthusiasts.

    When party girl Catherine Davenport was sent to stay with her cousins for Christmas, she didn’t count on getting stuck with an irritating, antisocial soldier. 
    Catherine’s stubborn independence leads her from a bad vacation in Lake Tahoe to the middle of an art heist, and she winds up trapped in a cabin. But she’s not the only one hiding, and the wounded Green Beret inside is just as icy as the blizzard that traps them both. 
    To stay safe and sane in the raging storm, Catherine has to rely on her wits and reluctantly trust the young and handsome soldier, Seth. He in turn slowly warms up to his unwanted houseguest despite his best efforts. Catherine keeps his nightmares at bay, and Seth can see past her masks, and the emotional walls they’ve both put up begin crumbling. But the longer they’re together, the more they start to realize the dangers waiting for them outside are more related than they thought, and the storm—and their growing attraction—is the least of their worries.

    Some curses can’t be broken. Some love refuses to die. 
    Olena hunts werewolves with a crossbow and a single rule. No mercy. It's the only way to survive when the same curse sleeps in her blood. 
    But when a shadow spell strikes her mother and forbidden magic becomes her only hope, Olena must turn to Valentyn—her former hunting partner and the ex who destroyed her. 
    Working together means confronting the secrets that tore them apart while hiding what she did the night the isle burned. It means pretending her heart doesn't still betray her every time he's near. 
    As ancient werewolf packs circle the shores and someone sends messages that threaten to expose her, Olena realizes the monsters in the forest aren't the only ones with fangs. 
    The beast is waking. The lies are unraveling. 
    And mercy might be the most dangerous choice of all. 
      
    Perfect for listeners who love werewolf romance, second-chance love with bite, and morally gray heroines who hunt the monsters they're destined to become.

    Members of the Greenhaugh and Hill families are staying at Lily's grandmother's bed and breakfast, and now they've gathered at Tea by the Sea to sip some delicious blends while they shower bride-to-be Hannah Hill with presents. But the last package Hannah unwraps contains a beheaded Raggedy Ann doll and triggers a bloodcurdling scream. A doll like this was the last gift from her father before he died long ago, and she's chilled to the bone. 
     
     
     
    Lily senses that the shocking anonymous gift just might be related to other tensions she's picking up on. The mothers-in-law have been sniping at each other—and then Lily, out walking her dog, overhears the groom's father, Ralph, offering his son a very sizable bribe to call off the wedding. She's relieved when Greg angrily turns him down, but with so many people steamed at each other, can this event possibly go smoothly? 
     
     
     
    The answer is no. It suddenly has to be postponed—when Ralph is found dead in his bed, a bottle of whiskey beside him. When tests indicate the booze was infused with a lethal substance, it becomes a murder case, and of course, accusations are flying wildly with the guests all too willing to believe the worst about each other. Now, to find out whether all this family drama led to a fatality, Lily will have to turn up the heat . . .

    Compassion may be humanity's deadliest weapon…
    The threat of nuclear war is no longer scary. This is much worse. It's invisible. It works quickly.
    And it's coming…
    The scourge has already infected and killed half the population in China and it is heading towards the UK. There is no time to escape. The British government sees no way out other than to distribute 'Dignity Pills' to its citizens: One last night with family or loved ones before going to sleep forever … together. Because the contagion will kill you and the horrifying news footage shows that it will be better to go quietly.
    Dr Haruto Ikeda, a Japanese scientist working at a Chinese research facility, wants to save the world. He has discovered a way to mutate a virus. Instead of making people sick, instead of causing death, it's going to make them... nice. Instead of attacking the lungs, it will work into the brain and increase the host's ability to feel and show compassion. It will make people kind.
    Ikeda's quest is thoughtful and noble, and it just might work. Maybe humanity can be saved. Maybe it doesn't have to be the end.
    But kindness may also be the biggest killer of all…
