A Packhorse Called Rachel

Marcelle Kellermann

A story of courage, fear, and defiance based on the authors own experience. A Packhorse Called Rachel is the remarkable tale of a girl of 20, daughter of a Jewish father, caught in the extraordinarily brutal world of France in 1944. Rachel moves through the book with her faithful dog Nourse, as her work with the Maquis based in the Auvergne takes her perilously close to danger. This account is based on personal experience, and the description of historical events is as true as memory will allow. It is beautifully written and at the same time captures the painful and lonely reality of life in the Maquis. Although all names have been changed, the writing includes some fine characterisations of the friends and foes the heroine meets and it describes the hardships resistance fighters, the Maquis, in the Auvergne had to face, the climate prevailing in winter, the Vichy traitors, and the hostility of ordinary people in Vichy France. 
Rachel overcomes the initial animosity and mistrust of the lecherous and alcoholic farmer Raboullet on whom she comes to rely; the wrath of the Gestapo, the betrayal of St Pré, a love and its tragic loss, and yet she triumphs. From the opening raid to the closing trial the book gives an incisive view, as we understand the mind and soul of the resistance better with each page. This is the story of a young woman paralleled with the struggle of a nation as it regains its courage to fight back.

Sweet Audible

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
PROLOGUE – The Power of Quiet Leadership
In a world that celebrates loudness — loud ambition, loud success, and louder egos — there stands a man who has shown that quietness can move mountains. His name is Ratan Naval Tata.
He is not the kind of leader who dominates rooms or commands attention through power. Instead, he leads with silence, humility, and conviction. Yet, his influence has stretched across continents, industries, and generations.
To many outside India, he is the man who brought Jaguar Land Rover and Tetley Tea into an Indian fold — a symbol of a new, confident India on the global stage. But to those within his homeland, Ratan Tata represents something far more profound: the belief that business can be kind, success can be ethical, and greatness can be graceful.
His story is not one of inherited privilege, but of earned respect.
Not one of ruthless ambition, but of quiet courage.
This is the story of a man who built an empire not just with steel, tea, or cars — but with trust.
It is the story of a visionary who didn’t just change India’s business landscape, but also changed how the world looked at India.
This is Ratan Tata: The Gentle Titan — a story of integrity, resilience, and the art of staying human while standing tall.

Dune and Philosophy - Minds...

William Irwin

"He who controls the spice controls the universe." Frank Herbert's Dune saga is the epic story of Paul, son of Duke Leto Atreides, and heir to the massive fortune promised by the desert planet Arrakis and its vast reservoirs of a drug called "spice." To control the spice, Paul and his mother Jessica, a devotee of the pseudo-religious Bene Gesserit order, must find their place in the culture of the desert-dwelling Fremen of Arrakis. Paul must contend with both the devious rival House Harkonnen and the gargantuan desert sandworms—the source of the spice. The future of the Imperium depends upon one young man who will need to lead a new jihad to control the universe. 
 
 
 
Dune and Philosophy recruits twenty-three philosophers to sift wisdom from Frank Herbert's Duniverse, including the first of an expected series of films following Paul "Muad'Dib" Atreides and his descendants, captivatingly brought to the big screen in 2021. Substantial yet accessible chapters address philosophical questions including: 
 
 
 
● Is it morally right to create a savior? 
 
 
 
● Would interplanetary travel change human nature? 
 
 
 
● In conflict, how can you stay light years ahead of your opponents? 
 
 
 
● Does history repeat itself?
