Sinopsis

She came from across the ocean to change his world.
 
No longer a tale born from the realms of dreams and promises, they meet. Months of planning and a four-and-a-half thousand-mile flight brings the two lovers together.
 
But will the look in their eyes shine as brightly under the glare of a shared sun as it has under distant bedroom lights? Only time will tell.
 
The two must find themselves amongst the old and new of a landscape made unfamiliar to both. From the rough North Sea and gothic architecture of a Yorkshire coastline, to an old windmill and more hot chocolates than any one person should drink, she and he will connect.
 
They must, as the ghost cat has decreed it.
 
Time passes quickly when the stakes are high. And for them, they couldn’t be any higher.

Awarded a 2024 Independent Press Distinguished Favorite in Memoir, Whispers from the Valley of the Yak weaves an intergenerational story about the power of forgiveness and being true to oneself. When Jackie returns to her Chinese birthplace with her aging American parents (former medical missionaries), profound questions arise about love and family. These questions set her on a quest to understand her troubled childhood and what she wants from life. Living in Alaska for five years, Jackie discovers her soul-place and an affinity for mountains and begins three decades of environmental work. Several solo visits to China help her forge a bridge of understanding and forgiveness with her mother. After her parents’ deaths, Jackie takes her adult children to China to retrace her parents’ 1932 trek into eastern Tibet.

Anne Carson's remarkable first book about the paradoxical nature of romantic loveSince it was first published, Eros the Bittersweet, Anne Carson's lyrical meditation on love in ancient Greek literature and philosophy, has established itself as a favorite among an unusually broad audience, including classicists, essayists, poets, and general listeners. Beginning with the poet Sappho's invention of the word "bittersweet" to describe Eros, Carson's original and beautifully written book is a wide-ranging reflection on the conflicted nature of romantic love, which is both "miserable" and "one of the greatest pleasures we have."

Amanda Lewis was an overachieving, burned-out book editor most familiar with trees as dead blocks of paper. A dedicated "indoorswoman," she could barely tell a birch from a beech. But that didn't stop her from pledging to visit all of the biggest trees in British Columbia, a Canadian province known for its rugged terrain and gigantic trees. 
 
 
 
The "Champion" trees on Lewis's ambitious list ranged from mighty Western red cedars to towering arbutus. The only problem? Well, there were many . . . 
 
 
 
Climate change and a pandemic aside, Lewis's lack of wilderness experience, the upsetting reality of old-growth logging, the ever-changing nature of trees, and the pressures of her one-year time frame complicated her quest. Burned out again—and realizing that her "checklist" approach to life might be the problem—she reframed her search for trees to something humbler and more meaningful: getting to know forests in an interconnected way. 
 
 
 
Weaving in insights from writers and artists, Lewis uncovers what we're really after when we pursue the big things—revealing that sometimes it's the smaller joys, the mindsets we have, and the companions we're with that make us feel more connected to the natural world.

How to Catch a Cricket Match

Rudyard Kipling called cricketers 'flannelled fools'. Groucho Marx asked halfway through a cricket match when it would begin. But despite the game's slow pace, strange language, eccentric umpires and frequent scandals – or perhaps because of them – cricket is one of the world's most loved sports. Indians, Australians, West Indians, Pakistanis, Sri Lankans, Zimbabweans, Bangladeshis and South Africans all claim it as their national game. In New Zealand, watching a match stirs strong emotions – so when cricket-obsessed writer Harry Ricketts and his Australian friend Tony take themselves to a test against the West Indies, things are bound to get lively.

When faith, identity, and mortality collide, one man’s search for truth becomes a life-changing journey. 
In 1987, at the age of 37, I was confronted with a diagnosis that changed everything: AIDS. Suddenly, the questions I had wrestled with since college—about God, life after death, and my place in the world as a gay man—took on new urgency. 
This audiobook chronicles my spiritual quest through sacred places and moments of profound honesty. Along the way, I sought proof that God exists and that Heaven is real—and what I found was far more powerful: evidence that divine love reaches even the most uncertain souls. 
When God Responded: A Gay Man's Search for Affirmation is a deeply personal, brutally honest, and ultimately hopeful exploration of faith and identity. It’s for anyone who has ever doubted, searched, or yearned to believe that God embraces every seeker—no matter how imperfect.
