While Pilot Officer Geoffrey Myers was caught up in the Battle of Britain, his French wife and two half-Jewish children were trapped in increasingly dangerous circumstances in Nazi-occupied France. In intimate, frank, and powerful letters, Myers kept a record of his war, his deep love for his wife Margot and their children, and his heart-wrenching fear for their safety as they tried to escape. Secret Letters: A Battle of Britain Love Story is an incredibly rare personal account of some of the major turning points of WWII.

"Conta più chi ti conosce di chi conosci tu" ha scritto Wisława Szymborska. Raffaele La Capria, una delle voci più influenti dell'Italia del Novecento, rende omaggio alla letteratura - compagna di vita, unica àncora di salvezza in un'epoca "senza maestri" - e ai tanti amici, alcuni ormai salpati come lui per un impalpabile altrove, attraverso più di settant'anni di lettere, scritte e ricevute.

DIA 5: SEGUNDA-FEIRA, 23 DE JULHO DE 2001, 5h53 "O sol está brilhando através das grades da minha janela, no que deve ser um glorioso dia de verão. Estou encarcerado numa cela de cinco passos por três durante doze horas e meia e só poderei sair de novo ao meio-dia. Dezoito horas e meia de confinamento solitário. Na cela abaixo de mim há um garoto de dezessete anos acusado de roubar uma loja: é seu primeiro delito, ainda nem foi condenado. Ele fica trancado por dezoito horas e meia sem poder falar com ninguém.

The next generation will face the reality that human activity is changing the planet from one geological epoch to another. From this vantage point—two generations across two geological epochs facing a fundamentally changing planet—Larry Rasmussen writes to his grandchildren. As a grandfather invested in a green earth and climate justice as well as a scholar of faith-based earth ethics, Rasmussen bridges this gap between generations to write to the future about climate change, global citizenship, democracy, and legacy.

Dieuwertje Blok debuteert met een ontroerende ontdekkingstocht door het oorlogsverleden en -dagboek van haar Joodse moeder. 'Henny Gazan, mijn moeder, was zeventien toen de oorlog uitbrak en zat tweeënhalf jaar ondergedoken. Tweeënhalf jaar kon ze niet naar buiten en moest ze zich zelfs af en toe een avond in een kast verstoppen. Ook mijn grootouders doken onder en overleefden zo de oorlog. De rest van mijn familie van moederskant heb ik nooit gekend, ze zijn vrijwel allemaal vermoord. Mijn moeder wist daardoor als geen ander wat vrijheid betekende.

Based on select writings from a collection of more than two thousand Dutch diaries written during World War II in order to record this unparalleled time, and maintained by devoted archivists, The Diary Keepers illuminates a part of history we haven’t seen in quite this way before, from the stories of a Nazi sympathizing police officer to a Jewish journalist who documented daily activities at a transport camp.

These letters were arranged in two volumes by Albert Bigelow Paine, Samuel L. Clemens's literary executor, as a supplement to Mark Twain, A Biography, which Paine wrote. They are, for the most part, every letter written by Clemens known to exist at the time of their publication in 1917. They begin with a fragment of a letter from teenaged Sam Clemens to his sister, Pamela, and conclude with a letter to his attorney two weeks before his death. These letters give us some degree of insight into the evolution of Twain's style of speech and prose over the period of his lifetime.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 - 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen der Jahres 1932. Seine Berichterstattungen sind sehr genau und zeugen von der Bildung eines aufgeklärten Europäers. 1932 ist wie ein langer dunkler Dezember ohne Advent und Weihnachten. Der größte Teil des Textes behandelt die aufgeheizten Debatten um die Politik des Tages (5 große Wahlen in 8 Monaten). Den Terror der Nazis auf den Straßen und die Sabotage der Weimarer Institutionen aus den Hinterzimmern des Parlaments.

Die "Reiseblätter" bestehen ausschließlich aus Briefen Goethes, in welchen er Freunden, Sympathisanten, Geistesverwandten und anderen nahestehenden Menschen seine Gedanken mitteilt. Da Goethes Intellekt sich gerne und ausgiebig mit interdisziplinären Gegenständen auseinandersetzte, wird der geneigte Zuhörer mit Themen aus Wissenschaft, Kunst, Kultur, Politik und Gesellschaft konfrontiert, in welchen das persönliche Verständnis und Verhältnis des Autors dazu im Vordergrund steht.

The crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers, or even soccer stars, to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector’s pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio’s leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love.

Rituales chamánicos, el tamborilero que derrotó a Napoleón en 1808, un alcalde que balbucea ante Franco y espárragos que avistan ovnis: todo tiene cabida en El Bruc, un municipio a los pies de Montserrat que puede ser leído como un palimpsesto. El autor, un forastero apenas aterrizado, se entrega al ritmo biológico de la montaña y la observa y la vive desde sus estratos simbólicos y místicos, históricos y glocales.

100 Quotes by Anne Frank is a poignant collection of thoughts and observations from the world’s most famous diarist. Touching, observational, and often funny, these quotes create a collage of a teenager whose world had been turned upside down. One of the most important documentarians of the Second World War, Frank’s views and feelings are both timeless and aligned with a darker chapter in humanity’s history. A fascinating and thought-provoking read, it's a great addition to any library.
