Book Description
The Diary of Anne Frank is a seminal piece of twentieth-century literature. It recounts the tragic and moving story of a young Jewish teenager faced with the horrors of Nazism. In it, Anne establishes a bond with her readers that transcends both time and space, making them her friends and confidants. Readers feel a connection with each dream she had, each fear she endured, and each struggle she confronted. Her diary ended, but her story did not. The Lost Diary of Anne Frank picks up where her original journal left off, taking the reader on a credible journey through the tragic final months of her life, faithfully adhering to her own, very personal, diary format in the process. In The Lost Diary of Anne Frank, Anne receives mysterious help from many quarters. A strange lady on the other side of the fence haunts her dreams. Her mom once vilified, becomes a hero. Anne struggles with the existence of God and His presence or absence in all of her ordeals. She contrasts the depravity of man with what she sees as mankind’s evident virtues. Her longing to experience sensual pleasures is numbed by forced over-exposure. She finds that in the Nazi efforts to extinguish the humanity of their victims, a chorus of unity evolves among the captives. Anne’s vaulted dreams for fame and notice are ultimately traded in for the true longings of life, love, and peace. The Lost Diary of Anne Frank follows her story to the chilling end. Dr. Johnny Teague is an author and historian, having earned five degrees, culminating with a doctorate in exposition from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. In preparation for writing this book, he interviewed many Holocaust survivors and studied at the Holocaust museums in Houston, Washington, D.C., and Yad Vashem in Israel. His studies have taken him to numerous historical sites, including Auschwitz, Dachau, the Corrie ten Boom House, and the Anne Frank House.

Book Description
Pack your bags... THE LAST DIARY SESSION takes us on an incredible adventure through the backstage reality of Reality TV. Its deeply philosophical style brings through a perception-shattering message to the searchers of today with unmatched cult humour. What started out as a diary to sort out his own recollections resulted in a book written by Zlatko Fabris, or better know to South African audiences as 'Zee'. ''I am no Author, I am no Writer. I had no idea how this all worked, but the Great Spirit brought me signs and placed things in my path that I could never ignore,'' said Zee. The Last Diary Session is a real life story of the backstage spiritual journey of a Reality TV personality. The Author was chosen for the reality TV programme - Big Brother, and came out on the other side of a spiritual roller coaster, with a story to be told on the reality of Reality TV. The book jumps from his present, to his past, to his crazy travel experiences, to his spiritualism and philosophies, to the way he sees art and culture, to the joys and struggles of growing up in the world we live, and it forces us to pack our bags and join him on a fascinating trip into the mind of a temporary public personality.

Book Description
John Steinbeck wrote The Grapes of Wrath during an astonishing burst of activity between June and October of 1938. Throughout the time he was creating his greatest work, Steinbeck faithfully kept a journal revealing his arduous journey toward its completion. The journal, like the novel it chronicles, tells a tale of dramatic proportions—of dogged determination and inspiration, yet also of paranoia, self-doubt, and obstacles. It records in intimate detail the conception and genesis of The Grapes of Wrath and its huge though controversial success. It is a unique and penetrating portrait of an emblematic American writer creating an essential American masterpiece.
