  WE HAVE BEEN SOLD A FALSE TRUTH 
  In this book you will find answers, extracted from the author's own research as well as from great researchers and referents, but you will not see the absolute truth at all. 
  It is not a book where you will come out with things clear, but it will be a book that you will finish and you will have a feeling of knowing something, something that not everyone knows but that is there, in the B side of the world and that we are not told in the media. 
  In each chapter according to each answer, the author invites you to question and reflect on what has happened, is happening and may happen.  
  SOME OF THE QUESTIONS ADDRESSED IN THE BOOK: 
  What are we doing here? 
  What is the purpose of being alive? 
  Why are we "the human race"? 
  Is the sun just a star? 
  Is the moon a satellite... artificial or natural? 
  Is there life after death? 
  What happened in ancient Egypt? 
  All the pyramids point to the constellation Orion. Why? 
  Is there intelligent life on other planets? 
  What is time? 
  Why is there something instead of nothing? 
  My take on a historical account: The Bible 
  Is there a single supreme being: What is a being? 
  Everything is perfectly made: Fate or chance? 
  What are dimensions, who created them and how many of them exist? 
  Who dominates the human race? 
  Why is a part of our brain known as "reptilian"? Are we reptilians? 
  Where did the Reptilians come from and what role do they play? 
  Why within the human race are there other types of races? 
  Do we all come from the same place? Where did we come from? 
  The truth has not been hidden, you have been hiding from the truth

  Scapegoated - You Were Never The...

  You were chosen because you were dangerous to their carefully constructed lies. Not because you were broken — because you saw too clearly, felt too deeply, and refused to go along with the fiction. 
  If you grew up absorbing blame that was never yours, silenced when you tried to speak, and told that your version of events was the problem — this audiobook was made for you. 
  Scapegoated: You Were Never The Problem is a deep, unflinching look at how narcissistic family systems work, who gets chosen as the target and why, and what that systematic targeting does to a developing mind and body. You'll learn about the roles that hold these families together — the narcissistic parent, the enabler, the golden child, the flying monkeys — and how each one plays a part in keeping the scapegoat in place. You'll see the selection process for what it really was: not a reflection of your worth, but a threat response to your strength. 
  This is the book that traces what happened inside your family back to the cultural systems that made it possible — structures that normalize control, silence the ones who speak up, and protect the very people who caused the harm. The invalidation you experienced was not accidental. It was structural. And the loneliness of trying to heal with no one believing you, no one standing in your corner — that was structural too. 
  There is a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from carrying weight that was never yours. From spending years trying to fix something in yourself that was never broken. From watching the people who hurt you face no consequences while you quietly fall apart. 
  This audiobook names all of it. The selection. The roles. The silence. The systems. And the long, unglamorous road of understanding what was actually done to you. 
  Not because something is wrong with you. Because something was done to you — and the world was not built to believe you. But this book was.

  Family Romance - John Singer...

  Jean Strouse

  Jean Strouse's Family Romance: John Singer Sargent and the Wertheimers looks at twelve portraits of one English family painted by the expatriate American artist at the height of his career—and at the intersections of all these lives with the sparkle and strife of the Edwardian age. 
   
   
   
  In commissioning this grand series of paintings, Asher Wertheimer, an eminent London art dealer of German-Jewish descent, became Sargent's greatest private patron and close friend. The Wertheimers worked with Rothschilds and royals, plutocrats and dukes—as did Sargent. Asher left most of his Sargent portraits to the National Gallery in London, a gift that elicited censure as well as praise: it was a new thing for a family of Jews to appear alongside the Anglo-Saxon aristocrats and dignitaries painted by earlier masters. 
   
   
   
  Strouse's account, set primarily in England around the turn of the twentieth century, takes in the declining fortunes of the British aristocracy and the dramatic rise of new power and wealth on both sides of the Atlantic. It travels back through hundreds of years to the Habsburg court in Vienna and forward to fascist Italy in the 1930s. Its depictions of Sargent, his sitters, their friendships and circles, and the portraits themselves light up a period that saw tumultuous social change and the birth of the modern art market.

  “I believe in you,” Amélie says. She peers up at me, her eyes alight with passion and pain. “Even the ocean wasn’t wide enough to keep us apart.” 
  June 6, 1944. Gazing over the ocean, Eddie sits on the edge of a stone wall overlooking the beach. The tide that had swept in now slowly ebbs, leaving behind it a beach full of dead. There is so much work to be done. 
  The thought depresses me, but I know that I can’t dwell on it too much. If I am to survive the war and find my way to Amélie in Paris, I have to stay on my guard and be ready for anything. 
  At the thought of Paris, I lean back. Memories of those moments remain with me even now. After almost five years of separation, the promises we made to each other remain. I need to find Amélie. First, I just have to survive one of the most significant battles we have yet to face, the one they are calling D-Day. Reaching Paris and finding Amélie has never felt so impossible… 
  Amélie, Paris. Mama smiles at me and makes her way into the kitchen. The sweet smell of fresh tea and biscuits baking in the oven fills the air. I pour a cup for each of us and sit down opposite her, cupping my own steaming brew. 
  “If he is the man you describe, I think he will be a man who pursues honor and does his duty for God and his country,” Mama says, stirring the tea ruminatively. “I can only pray that God keeps watch over him, wherever he is.” 
  A gripping story of love against all odds, found in the most hopeless of places. This epic listen reminds us that the pain of parting is nothing to the joy of meeting again.Listeners will absolutely love No Ocean Wide Enough.

  Tomorrow with Bayonets - Dublin:...

  The raw intensity of the Irish Civil War is brought to life in this gripping, fast-paced journey from July 1921 to July 1922 – a year of change and conflict. Dublin's descent into violent unrest surpasses the turbulence of the Easter Rising. Treaty debates spark dissension, and as tensions mount, Dublin becomes a tinderbox of espionage, betrayal, and guerrilla warfare. Former allies who fought shoulder to shoulder in the IRA now find themselves divided and entrenched in an ideological struggle that threatens to tear Dublin and Ireland apart. More than a historical recount, 'Tomorrow With Bayonets' offers a visceral portrayal of a nation grappling with its identity and sovereignty, seen through the eyes of combatants, leaders, and civilians caught in the crossfire.
  
  
  The Provisional Government's National Army and the IRA engage in sporadic but fierce clashes as unrelenting violence and chaos engulf the country. In Northern Ireland, there is growing disillusionment among IRA units due to the diminishing credibility of assurances from Michael Collins. Ongoing assaults on their communities, the nationalist population experiences a rising number of casualties due to rampant brutality from unionist militias. A suppression of inquiries into killings leads to a widespread feeling of abandonment by the Provisional Government.
  
  
  On June 4 1922, the Provisional Government implemented 'a policy of peaceful obstruction' towards the Belfast Government, explicitly forbidding any troops from the twenty-six counties from entering the six-county area. In an apocalyptic climax, Dublin is engulfed in explosions, assassinations and relentless urban warfare. This powerful account, not for the faint-hearted, leaves a lasting impact, resonating with the reader long after the final page.
