Beschreibung

In the tumultuous years of the mid-1930s, as the dark clouds of Nazism gathered over Germany, a young girl named Anya found herself caught in the crosscurrents of history. Her father, a minor diplomat in Hitler's government, harbored a secret dissent against the regime's hateful ideology. In the confines of their home, hushed whispers and clandestine meetings painted a stark contrast to the public face of unwavering support for the Führer.

As the shadow of war loomed ever larger, Anya and her family made the heart-wrenching decision to flee their homeland, embarking on a perilous journey that would take them across continents and oceans. Their quest for refuge led them first to the frozen expanse of Vladivostok, Russia, a city perched on the edge of the vast Siberian wilderness. There, they navigated the challenges of living in a foreign land, their lives forever marked by the specter of the war raging across Europe.

When the flames of war engulfed the world, Anya and her family found themselves trapped in a maelstrom of uncertainty and fear. Vladivostok, once a sanctuary, transformed into a city under siege, its streets echoing with the distant rumble of artillery. Amidst the chaos and devastation, they clung to the flickering flame of hope, praying for a swift end to the conflict that had shattered their world.

With the conclusion of the war, Anya and her family set their sights on a new horizon, a land of boundless opportunity and promise: America. They sailed across the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, their hearts filled with both trepidation and anticipation. The journey to their new home was arduous, marked by uncertainty and the longing for a brighter future.

Finally, they arrived in the United States, a nation brimming with hope and vitality. As they stepped onto American soil, they felt a sense of relief and liberation, knowing that they had finally found a place where they could put the horrors of the past behind them and embrace the promise of a new beginning.

Anya's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. It is a tale of courage, hope, and the unwavering belief in a better future.

    What happens when toxicity invades a life at every turn? 
     
     
     
    A 1963 murder leads to a decade-long journey for a son to uncover truths about his family, an American town, and ultimately himself. 
     
     
     
    In the "Crossroads of America," three active-duty US Army paratroopers commit a more heinous crime than the one they are trying to cover up. Their arrests and trial shock and divide residents of the town between those who see the soldiers as heroes and those who view them as cold-blooded killers. 
     
     
     
    Author Dan Melchior unearths the story of Rudolph Ziemer, known by some as the "Queer Undertaker." Along the way, he uncovers forgotten often toxic stories involving the Cold War and the Jim Crow south, infidelity, addiction, bigotry, murders, and accidents all woven into the fabric of one woman's life as a laboring silk finisher. The stories link the Civil Rights era to World War II to the march of the MAGA movement and parallel the divisions and challenges facing America today. Journey along with Melchior as he discovers how one man's murder—someone he never knew—led him to a deeper understanding of his family, his beliefs, his country, and his triumphant relationship with his mom, a silk finisher.

    Over the course of seven decades Ralph Nader has been Corporate America's fiercest critic. Supreme Court Justice William Powell singled out Nader in his infamous memo as the "single most effective antagonist of American business . . . [the] target of his hatred . . . is corporate power." 
     
     
     
    But now, in a book that will surprise both his fans and critics, Nader profiles a small group of CEOs who he believes performed extraordinarily well as business leaders and civic reformers, some well-known, some not, who should be celebrated as exceptions whose life and career should be a course of emulation and inspiration for students of business, executives, and the wider citizenry. 
     
     
     
    This select group of mavericks and iconoclasts—which includes The Body Shop's Anita Roddick, Patagonia's Yvon Chouinard, Vanguard's John Bogle, and Busboys and Poets' Andy Shallal—give us, Nader writes, "a sense of what might have been and what still could be if business were rigorously framed as a process that was not only about making money and selling things but improving our social and natural world."
