Sweet Crude
Author: V. C. Thomas
Publisher: Wheatmark, Inc.
ISBN: 1604946199
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
A Texas oil man joins his Muslim friends to repair the oil and gas fields, and fights for reason as the CIA, terrorists from neighboring countries, and the Libyan army position themselves in post Qadhafi Libya. Decades ago in Libya, TexOil President Roland Moran discovered huge quantities of sweet crude, the most sought-after oil on earth. Now Qaddafi has fallen, and the way is clear to renovate the oil fields that lie deep within the Sahara. But danger and deception lurk around every corner. Summer Williams, Rolo's assistant and lover, may not be what she seems. Dr. Mohammed Ben Nusef, a rising young star at TexOil, has close ties to people who are planning terrorist attacks against Americans. Rolo feels more at home in the Muslim world than most, but will his diplomatic skills be enough to prevent events from spiraling out of control? With keen insights into the oil trade, Islam, and the uneasy comingling of disparate cultures, Sweet Crude paints a compelling picture of life in the Middle East.

The Summer Book
Author: Tove Jansson
Publisher: Sort of Books
ISBN: 1908745193
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Celebrating 50 years of Tove Jansson's classic, bestselling novel Featured in the BBC 2 Between the Covers Bookclub Special (Eurovision series 2023) 'Distils the essence of summer' Robert Macfarlane 'Magical, life-affirming' Elizabeth Gilbert The Worldwide Classic about a tiny island and larger love. An elderly artist and her six-year-old grand-daughter while away a summer together on a tiny island in the gulf of Finland. As the two learn to adjust to each other's fears, whims and yearnings, a fierce yet understated love emerges - one that encompasses not only the summer inhabitants but the very island itself. Written in a clear, unsentimental style, full of brusque humour, and wisdom, The Summer Book is a profoundly life-affirming story. Tove Jansson captured much of her own life and spirit in the book, which was her favourite of her adult novels. With a foreword by Esther Freud and an afterword by Sophia Jansson (on whom the child 'Sophia' is based) who returns to the island during the pandemic at the point of becoming a grandmother herself. Includes a 15pp epilogue by Tove's niece Sophia Jansson - the inspiration for 'Sophia' - on a personal and moving return to the island. 'Eccentric, funny, wise, full of joys and small adventures. This is a book for life.' Esther Freud 'Tove Jansson was a genius. This is a marvellous, beautiful, wise novel, which is also very funny.' Philip Pullman
