Sinossi

In a land torn by war, an unlikely alliance will decide the fate of two young women.

It is 1757. The French and Indian War rages across the vast forests of North America. When Cora and Alice Munro—daughters of a British officer—become stranded in hostile territory, their survival depends on three brave guides: Chingachgook, the noble Mohican chief; Uncas, his valiant son and the last of his tribe; and Hawkeye, the legendary white scout raised among Native Americans.

As they navigate ambushes, treachery, and deadly battles, these companions face not only the brutality of war but also the deeper questions of loyalty, honor, and the passing of an ancient way of life.

First published in 1826 as part of the Leatherstocking Tales, The Last of the Mohicans remains one of the most enduring works of early American literature—an epic blend of romance, adventure, and cultural history.

"One of the greatest historical romances ever written."
– The New York Times Book Review

"A sweeping tale of adventure, tragedy, and the end of an era."
– Historical Fiction Review

    Why is this happening? How do you care for yourself and your family? If you are struggling with a loved one’s addiction you are not alone. A compassionate resource for anyone stuck between a rock and a hard place. 
    When Rev. Nathan Detering shared the story of his brother’s death from a drug overdose with the members of his congregation, many of them shared their own addiction stories with him. Realizing the healing power of sharing stories and questions in community, Rev. Detering conducted interviews to identify and address the common questions that haunt us when we love someone with addiction. In conversations both within and outside his community, he heard the palpable need for those struggling with a loved one’s addictions to know they are not alone. 
    Weaving together his own and others’ deeply felt experiences of addiction, Why Can’t I Fix It? responds to sometimes desperate questions such as: Why is this happening? What can you do? What can’t you do? How do you care for yourself and the rest of your family? Can you trust your community to support you and your family? While the answers to these questions aren’t easily found, Why Can’t I Fix It? encourages those of us who are struggling with a loved one’s addictions to practice self-care and self-compassion, understand the cultural context for emotional responses and expectations of ourselves and others, and reach out for support.

    FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BLOODY BRILLIANT WOMEN 
    A Times Best Book of the Year 
    The Ladder brings together discussions between women – about work, love, growth, challenge, the big decisions and the stories of their lives. 
    Offering inspiration and wise counsel from some of the world’s most acclaimed and influential women, this book is an insight and a trove of solidarity, turning over ideas of change, anger, illness, imposter syndrome, self-knowledge, purpose, how to not panic in a crisis and how to stop worrying you’re boring when there isn’t one. 
    Amidst these pages are discussions with women who have achieved extraordinary things in their fields and pursuits, from politicians like Nicola Sturgeon and Angela Rayner to scientists like Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell, activists like Rosamund Kissi-Debrah, film-makers like Waad Al-Kateab, religious leaders like Rose Hudson-Wilkin and broadcasters like Joan Bakewell. 
    In The Ladder, Cathy Newman presents a powerful exploration of feminism and social studies, offering a unique blend of autobiography and non-fiction. The book is a testament to the power of women in various fields, from science to arts and entertainment, and a beacon of self-help and personal growth. 
    For fans of Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat Pray Love), Florence Given (Women Don't Owe You Pretty), Mary Portas (Work Like a Woman), Kimothy Joy (Extraordinary Wing Women), and Lissa Evans (Picnic on Craggy Island).

    This volume offers a rigorous and interdisciplinary exploration of how the European Union's externalization of migration governance has reshaped territorial, political, and human landscapes at its periphery. Tracing the aftermath of the 2015 migration crisis, the volume examines how informal agreements with Turkey, Libya, Tunisia, and Albania initiated a cascading logic that normalizes legal opacity, erodes accountability, and institutionalizes human rights violations. Moving beyond legal and geopolitical critique, the book investigates the entanglement of migration containment with tourism development in border regions such as Lampedusa and Lesvos, exposing how these territories become doubly burdened as sites of both securitization and commodification. By engaging with law, postcolonial theory, and critical tourism studies, the authors reveal the neo-colonial dynamics underlying EU mobility governance and advance alternative models grounded in accountability, territorial justice, and the defense of fundamental rights.

    I humbly and gracefully say that this book, in my opinion, is optimistic and providential. It is experiential and offers more to the right souls who read the ideas correctly and with the right mindset. The content of this book came out of a flow during moments of deep connection, as if it were meant for a particular group of people. Often the author was surprised by the clarity that flowed into these moments and, at times, sat in shock because the insights were directly opposite to his beliefs and ways of doing things. He is fully convinced that the material belongs to the Universe and was intuited to him for his evolution and that of others. Often, he was inspired by his materials as if they were not his. The author experienced many awakening moments while channelling the wisdom shared in this book.  
    A state of vibration known as the “Divine vibration” is something our soul searches for naturally. It’s fulfilling and is placed at the highest rank as a highly positive experience by our core self. Divine Vibration is everywhere. All we need to do to experience it is to tune in to that vibration. We have a powerful tuning machine called the mind. This mind can tune in to any vibration, from revenge to love, grief to bliss, poverty to prosperity, and demonic to divine. We must be skilled enough to steer it in the right direction. 
    This book will help tune you to experience the divine vibration that is both fulfilling and healing. I could feel the transmission of divine energy through the words and ideas presented here. If you are reading this book and feeling the auspiciousness, then it’s meant for you. Please be in the right frame of mind to receive it.

    A violinist sees a scarlet form when he plays a certain note; a rock star sees waves of blue and green as he composes a ballad; an actress tastes cake when she utters the word "table." Described by some as a superpower this mingling of the senses is called "synesthesia," and the people who possess this amazing gift are called "synesthetes." 
     
     
      
    What happens when a journalist turns her lens on a mystery happening in her own life? Maureen Seaberg did just that and lived for a year exploring her synesthesia. The wondrous brain trait is often described as blended senses, but for Maureen, synesthesia is not an idle "brain tick" that can be explained away by science (although it does offer some important clues). It is a unique ability to tap into and reveal a greater creative universe and even the divine. 
     
     
     
    Join her as she visits top neuroscientists, rock stars, violinists, other synesthetes, philosophers, savants, quantum physicists, and even Tibetan lamas in her journey toward the truth. 
     
     
     
    Step into Maureen's shimmering alternate universe as she explores this fascinating subject, combining clear explanations of groundbreaking scientific research with an exploration of deeper understanding of our senses.
