  A Rare Recording of James Joyce...

  In this rare 1924 recording, James Joyce reads from the Aeolus episode of his masterpiece, Ulysses. The recording was arranged and financed by the author’s friend and publisher Sylvia Beach, who brought him by taxi to the HMV (His Master’s Voice) gramophone studio in the Paris suburb of Billancourt. The first session didn’t go well. Joyce was nervous and suffering from his recurring eye troubles. He and Beach returned another day to finish the recording. In her memoir, Shakespeare & Company, Beach writes: "Joyce had chosen the speech in the Aeolus episode, the only passage that could be lifted out of Ulysses, he said, and the only one that was “declamatory” and therefore suitable for recital. He had made up his mind, he told me, that this would be his only reading from Ulysses.I have an idea that it was not for declamatory reasons alone that he chose this passage from Aeolus. I believe that it expressed something he wanted said and preserved in his own voice. As it rings out–"he lifted his voice above it boldly"–it is more, one feels, than mere oratory. The passage parallels the episode in Homer’s Odyssey featuring Aeolus, god of the winds. As a pun, Joyce sets it in a newspaper office where his hero Leopold Bloom stops by to place an ad, only to be stymied by the blustery noise of the printing presses and of the various "windbags" in the office. One character tries to entertain a couple of his friends with a mocking recital of a politician’s speech printed in the day’s newspaper.

  In an era of mass migration in which more than 100 million people are displaced comes this lyrical portrait of Syrian and Iraqi refugees and the belongings they carry. What We Remember Will Be Saved is a book of hope, home, and the stories we hold within us when everything else has been lost. 
   
   
   
  Journalist and scholar Stephanie Saldaña, who lived in Syria before the war, sets out on a journey across nine countries to meet refugees and learn what they salvaged from the ruins when they escaped. Now, in the narratives of six extraordinary women and men, from Mt. Sinjar to Aleppo to Lesvos to Amsterdam, we discover that the little things matter a great deal. Saldaña introduces us to a woman who saved her city in a dress, a musician who saved his stories in songs, and a couple who rebuilt their destroyed pharmacy even as the city around them fell apart. Together they provide a window into a religiously diverse corner of the Middle East on the edge of unraveling, and the people keeping it alive with their stories. 
   
   
   
  Born of years of friendship and reporting, What We Remember Will Be Saved is a breathtaking, elegiac odyssey into the heart of the largest refugee crisis in modern history.

  A Wall Street Journal–bestseller, Republican Ed Goeas and Democrat Celinda Lake present political strategies to resolve national and civil tensions.A Question of Respect speaks to voters who are tired of a political environment that ends in immovable stalemate, grounded by a political party’s voter base without addressing solutions or attempting to understand the opposing side. With more than thirty years of their joint Battleground Poll exploring the concerns of the American public, Ed and Celinda reveal that only through mutual respect will the nation be able to heal its divisions. “In providing a roadmap to respect and bipartisanship, liberal Lake and conservative Goeas offer up a very personal lesson for all of us on the final page. In acknowledging how their politically divided relationship changed over the two-year writing project, they basically said that time and listening were the best medicine. . . . Theirs is not only a cure for what ails Washington, but maybe the slave to our divided nation, packed in a powerful and concise read. Bravo.” —Paul Bedard, Washington Secrets columnist for the Washington Examiner“A very good book by very good people about a very good country in very bad times. I could not put it down. Get copies for everyone you know, especially those with whom you’ve stopped communicating.” —Mary Matalin, American political consultant “Ed and Celinda, two experienced veterans of political combat, have written a thoughtful examination of where the problems lie, and what we can do about them. It’s not a solution, that’s up to us, but it’s an invaluable roadmap that each of us should carry.” —General Stan McChrystal (Ret.)
