Описание: Grand Avenue runs through the center of the Northern California town of Santa Rosa. One stretch of it is home not only to Pomo Indians making a life outside the reservation but also to Mexicans, blacks, and some Portuguese, all trying to find their way among the many obstacles in their turbulent world. Bound together by a lone ancestor, the lives of the American Indians form the core of these stories--tales of healing cures, poison, family rituals, and a humor that allows the inhabitants of Grand Avenue to see their own foibles with a saving grace. A teenage girl falls in love with a crippled horse marked for slaughter. An aging healer summons her strength for one final song. A father seeks a bond with his illegitimate son. A mother searches for the power to care for her cancer-stricken daughter's spirit. Here is a tapestry of lives rendered with the color, wisdom, and a quest for meaning that are characteristic of the traditional storytelling in which they are rooted, a tradition Sarris grew up hearing and learning. Vibrant with the emotions and realities of a changing world, these narratives--the basis of an HBO miniseries--are all equally stunning and from the heart.

Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. He wrote penetrating novels on political, social, and gender issues and conflicts of his day.
In 1867 Trollope left his position in the British Post Office to run for Parliament as a Liberal candidate in 1868. After he lost, he concentrated entirely on his literary career. While continuing to produce novels rapidly, he also edited the St Paul's Magazine, which published several of his novels in serial form. His first major success came with The Warden (1855) - the first of six novels set in the fictional county of Barsetshire.
The comic masterpiece Barchester Towers (1857) has probably become the best-known of these. Trollope's popularity and critical success diminished in his later years, but he continued to write prolifically, and some of his later novels have acquired a good reputation. In particular, critics generally acknowledge the sweeping satire The Way We Live Now (1875) as his masterpiece. In all, Trollope wrote forty-seven novels, as well as dozens of short stories and a few books on travel.

'Havan is about the Lambada people who have been a wandering tribe since ages and who, perhaps, originally belonged to Rajasthan. Literally, Havan is the name of a settlement of Lambadas near Kalluru. The novel describes the lives of a few people of this settlement and faithfully recreates the history of the tribe, its characteristic social events and celebrations, songs and dances, beliefs and customs; and their exploitation by landlords and the police. The first part of the novel is narrated by one Basappa who comes to the Thanda (settlement) as a schoolteacher, and the second part is narrated by Loku, Zimri, Hari and Kasanu - members of the tribe.
'Two streams of thoughts are prevalent in India about the concept of progress among the hundreds of tribes in the country who are culturally rich but suffer from poverty and lack of education. One thought persuades all the communities to join the mainstream by changing their lifestyle, food, clothing, etc., and getting access to modern education and jobs. The other stream argues that the government should provide these people with adequate facilities whereby they can retain their traditional lifestyle as well as food habits and other cultural practices. The first stream is "interventionist" and the second "non-interventionist". Neither the social scientists nor the politicians have been able to decide which of the two is "correct". Both the approaches are not without limitations. Havan is emphatic in convincing us that there are no easy solutions to such dilemmas.'
Dr C.N. RAMACHANDRAN (Excerpt from 'Havana: An Analysis')
Tonight is the night. Elizabeth is no longer Miss Bennett. Today, she is Mrs. Darcy, wife of Fitzwilliam Darcy. Tonight, their union is sealed in the bedroom. But Elizabeth is incredibly nervous. Nobody would tell her what she should do. "Just follow your husband's wishes," they said. What would he want to do with her?
Elizabeth did not like this. She had vowed to love and obey her husband, but that did not mean she did not get to have an opinion, especially when it came to her own body. But when he places his hands on her waist, Elizabeth is powerless to his charm.
Their honeymoon in the countryside is full of pleasures she never could have imagined. Her husband is far more experienced. For the entirety of their vacation, she is rarely clothed. Red wine and lascivious kisses fill her days.
Her transition from fianc to wife brings new experiences, indescribable in nature. Truly, the things her husband does to her are far too indecent to describe.
She's determined not to be some helpless virgin, both inside the bedroom and out. With the help of some much-needed advice, she is ready for her husband. Fitzwilliam will not recognize the vixen laying where innocent Mrs. Darcy once sat.

My name is Skye. I've been working for the Syndicate for five years, now. I don't know anything about them, but that's just how it is in this line of work.
I'm an assassin.
I've got assets and charm, which usually makes men trust me. When I was young, I started out using my allure to commit petty crimes, nothing terrible. I went on like this for a couple years, but then I paid for my hubris. I went after the wrong man. I woke to something terrifying.
Now, the Syndicate owns me. I'm at their beck and call, 24/7. Today, my target is a hedge fund manager, named Jacob Simons. It's easy, he's just another target for me to take down. He's probably done something to anger the Syndicate. I don't care. I go to him, I meet him, I flirt with him, rinse and repeat. It's always the same. Until it isn't.
Despite the risks, he's got his own charm. I find myself falling for it.
I can't do this. I can't let my heart win. I have to kill him, or the Syndicate will kill me But he's different than all my other marks. He's quick-witted. Jacob can see right through me. Sometimes I feel like he already knows more about me than I do.
Jacob has me completely enamoured. How do I resist him? He's got such skilled hands... Why can't I resist? He could get me killed
But I can't resist the hunger in his eyes when he looks at me.

Описание: It's a still, hot summer in Perth, only heat shimmying off the city's glass buildings, and not much to do but surrender to the cool of Beatty Park pools. The locals are out in full force: teenagers flirting, even the ragtag kids from the refuge. But something is moving under all the stillness; something dark and untamed. It's moving through lives and connecting them with its sonar trembles: Auntie, in town with Jerome to find his mum, who has run away; Kevin, tired of his lot, dealing with raucous kids and bottlenecks and a city that seems to be growing hostile; Karri and his other-worldly sister Bat Girl; Jackie and her sisters, sharing smokes by the pool. In this exquisite, lyrical verse novel from acclaimed playwright Christine Evans, we are invited to witness the strange and invisible ways people are drawn together and pulled apart - and to venture to the ultimate catastrophic release that might ultimately return them home.
