Описание:

Powerful characters and exquisite prose bring to life a tumultuous period of American history that still demands our attention. Tara Conklin, New York Times bestselling author of The House Girl

The Civil War has ended, and Madge, Sadie, and Hemp have each come to Chicago in search of a new life. Born with magical hands, Madge has the power to discern others suffering and ease it, but she cannot heal her own damaged heart. To mend herself and continue to help those in need, she must return to Tennessee to face the women healers who rejected her as a child.

Sadie can commune with the dead, but until she makes peace with her father, she, too, cannot fully engage her gift.

Searching for his missing family, Hemp arrives in this northern city that shimmers with possibility. But redemption cannot be possible until he is reunited with those taken from him.

In the bitter aftermath of a terrible, bloody war, as a divided nation tries to come together once again, Madge, Sadie, and Hemp will be caught up in an unexpected battle for survival in a community desperate to lay the pain of the past to rest.

A powerful novel inspired by our nation s past. New York Journal of Books

Описание: In this riveting personal story John Perkins tells of his own inner journey from willing servant of empire to impassioned advocate for the rights of oppressed people. Covertly recruited by the U.S. National Security Agency and on the payroll of an international consulting firm, he travelled the world - to Indonesia, Panama, Ecuador, Colombia, Saudi Arabia, Iran and other strategically important countries. His job was to implement policies that promoted the interests of the U.S. corporatocracy (a coalition of government, banks, and corporations) while professing to alleviate poverty. He had to convince these countries to accept enormous loans for infrastructure development and to make sure that the lucrative projects were contracted to U.S. corporations. Saddled with huge debts, these countries came under the control of the U.S. government, World Bank, and other U.S. dominated aid agencies that acted like loan sharks - dictating repayment terms and bullying governments into submission. He reveals the hidden mechanisms of imperial control behind some of the most dramatic events in recent history, such as the fall of the Shar of Iran, the death of Panamanian president Omar Torrijos, and the U.S.invasions of Panama and Iraq. This book exposes the little known inner workings of a system that fosters globalisation and leads to the impoverishment of millions of people across the planet.
