Book Description
Three facts that constitute co-existence; body, soul and mind. Three basic concepts that help us define time; past, present and future. Three periods that we believe constitute the whole of life; birth, life and death. Three apples fall from the sky; Görkem, Necip and Sevda… The trio, one a skeptic, one a hedonist, and the other a rationalist, who do not know each other, wake up in a wooden house in the middle of nowhere. They try to figure out why they are in this half-living house, which is quite strange with its location and modus operandi, where they will go and who they really are. They put their heads together with the others they encounter, sometimes friends, sometimes enemies, to find an answer to the main question: What does it mean to blind a bald cat?

Book Description
The KGB grooms a charming young American to run for president Although in the mid-1940s no one had ever heard of JFK, Jack Adams's mother insisted her new son be christened John Fitzgerald. Years after his parents' death, Jack learns the reason for his name: a packet of photos showing his mother in bed with young John Kennedy. As a student at Columbia University, Jack demonstrates that he inherited more than JFK's good looks. His irresistible charisma and political instinct make him a natural campus leader, but he has his sights set on something bigger than the student council. Young Jack Adams wants to be president of the United States, and the Soviet Union is prepared to help. A KGB spy named Dmitri recruits Jack, promising him the presidency in exchange for treason. Dmitri guides Jack for decades, putting him in a position to become the largest intelligence coup in history--unless the candidate's libido derails him first.

All My Cats
Author: Bohumil Hrabal
Publisher: New Directions Publishing
ISBN: 0811228967
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 93
Book Description
A literary master’s story about the aggravations and great joys of cats, from “a most sophisticated novelist, with a gusting humor and a hushed tenderness of detail” (Julian Barnes) In the autumn of 1965, flush with the unexpected success of his first published books, the Czech author Bohumil Hrabal bought a cottage in Kersko. From then until his death in 1997, he divided his time between Prague and his country retreat, where he wrote and tended to a community of feral cats. Over the years, his relationship to cats grew deeper and more complex, becoming a measure of the pressures, both private and public, that impinged on his life as a writer. All My Cats, written in 1983 after a serious car accident, is a confessional memoir, the chronicle of an author who becomes overwhelmed. As he is driven to the brink of madness by the dilemmas created by his indulgent love for the animals, there are episodes of intense brutality as he controls the feline population. Yet in the end, All My Cats is a book about Hrabal’s relationship to nature, about the unlikely sources of redemption that come to him unbidden, like a gift from the cosmos—and about love.

In the time of the beginning, when the First Gods created all things, they brought forth two children, Tharn and Balatur, lesser gods, to walk upon the new world. But Balatur was arrogant.
