My Life in Seventeen Books - A...

Jon M. Sweeney

A memoir for the bookish-inclined, using personal stories to demonstrate how books have a magical way to move a person from one stage of life to the next. 
 
 
 
"This is a small gem of a book, tender, humble, loving." —Mary Gordon 
 
 
 
"Sweeney makes a charming companion, telling stories in joyful reflection." —Jeff Deutsch, author of In Praise of Good Bookstores 
 
 
 
Former bookseller, longtime publisher, and author Jon M. Sweeney shows—with history and anecdotes centering around books such as Thoreau's Journal, Tagore's Gitanjali, Martin Buber's Hasidic Tales, and Tolstoy's Twenty-three Tales—what it means to be carried by a book. He explores the discovery that once accompanied finding books, and books finding us. He ponders the smell of an old volume, its heft, and why bibliophiles carry them around even without reading them. He demonstrates how and why there is magic and enchantment that takes place between people and books.

Ben Shaw, Lorne Hallendorff

Wins, losses, lessons and laughs. 
From 'naughty lists' to sprinting swans, wandering ducks to Amarula-based incentives, The First Kudu takes you on the roller coaster ride of a start-up and dives into real learnings along the way. 
The narrative invites you to journey through the chaos with the young team, and unpacks in gritty detail what goes into building a tech start-up - with stories of fun and failure honestly told in equal measure. 
The First Kudu tells the story of HouseME, a rental technology company founded in South Africa that grew to 34 employees and 50 000 registered users, processing hundreds of million of rands each year. The company won awards, raised several rounds of fund and was sought after by competitors. 
It was exciting. It was excellent. And then... it was dead. 
Ben Shaw (former CEO) and Lorne Hallendorff (former COO) provide a whirlwind tour of what goes into building a start-up at the southern tip of Africa, and what they would do differently, were they to do it again.
