Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. July, 1944, a month after D-Day. Billy, Kaz, and Big Mike are assigned to investigate a double murder, close to the front lines in Normandy. An American officer and a member of the French Resistance were found dead in a manor house outside the town of Trevieres. The investigation is shrouded in secrecy, due to the highly confidential nature of the American unit headquartered at the Manoir de Castilly; the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops. This unit had a unique mission within the US Army: to impersonate other US Army units in order to deceive the enemy into thinking they were facing larger forces.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Capturing the distinct rhythms of Jamaican life and dialect, Nicole Dennis- Benn pens a tender hymn to a world hidden among pristine beaches and the wide expanse of turquoise seas. At an opulent resort in Montego Bay, Margot hustles to send her younger sister, Thandi, to school. Taught as a girl to trade her sexuality for survival, Margot is ruthlessly determined to shield Thandi from the same fate. When plans for a new hotel threaten their village, Margot sees not only an opportunity for her own financial independence but also perhaps a chance to admit a shocking secret: her forbidden love for another woman. As they face the impending destruction of their community, each woman--fighting to balance the burdens she shoulders with the freedom she craves--must confront long-hidden scars. From a much-heralded new writer, Here Comes the Sun offers a dramatic glimpse into a vibrant, passionate world most outsiders see simply as paradise.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The fifth Billy Boyle investigation American Lieutenant Billy Boyle is assigned to London by his uncle, General Dwight D. Eisenhower, to investigate the murder of a Russian security officer in the buildup to D-Day. Billy recognizes that this is a politically charged case, pitting Allies against one another, and that he must proceed with caution. The Polish contingent is incensed over evidence that implicates the Russians in the murder of hundreds of Polish prisoners in the so-called Katyn Forest Massacre, and Scotland Yard thinks this murder of a Soviet officer may be a revenge killing-perhaps perpetrated by Billy's friend Kaz, a Polish baron in exile. But Billy doesn't buy it. Can he find the real murderer, exonerate his friend, and prevent Allied relations from falling to pieces at this critical moment of the war.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. "Michaels has written a bracing polemic that should quicken the debate over what diversity really means, or should mean, in academia and beyond."--The New York Review of Books If there's one thing Americans agree on, it's the value of diversity. Our corporations vie for slots in the Diversity Top 50, our universities brag about minority recruiting, and every month is Somebody's History Month. But in this "eloquent" (Chicago Tribune) and "captivating" (Los Angeles Times) book, Walter Benn Michaels argues that our enthusiastic celebration of "difference" masks our neglect of America's vast and growing economic divide. When it was first published in 2006, The Trouble with Diversity provoked a firestorm of praise and condemnation--not only hailed as "genius" (The Economist), "cogent" (The New Yorker), and "impossible to disagree with" (The Washington Post) it was excoriated as a "wildly implausible" product of "the 'shock and awe' school of political argument" (Slate) and "Seething, misplaced, amnesiac resentment" (The Nation). Now, a decade later, Michaels offers a new afterword on how our regime of equal-opportunity exploitation has only intensified. Magnificently iconoclastic, he demonstrates that commitments to diversity fail to offer a premise for social justice and in fact legitimize the economic forces that drive inequality rather than offering a resistance or even a critique. Most importantly, he makes the case that we should pay less attention to the illusory distinction of culture, and more attention to the real discrepancies of class and wealth.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Warum sind wir auf der Welt? Was ist der Sinn des Lebens und was kommt nach dem Tod? Gibt es Gott und ein Jenseits wirklich? Derartige Fragen beschaftigen die Menschheit praktisch von Beginn an. Die Antworten, die die verschiedenen Religionen darauf bieten, stellen viele jedoch nicht zufrieden und werfen weitere Fragen auf, nicht zuletzt weil unmenschliche und grausame Glaubenskriege, nicht nur in der Vergangenheit, eine erschreckend hohe Zahl von Opfern gefordert haben und nicht wenige an der Existenz eines Gottes und seiner Gerechtigkeit zweifeln lassen. Andererseits berichten viele Menschen uber sogenannte Nahtoderfahrungen, in denen sie Kontakt mit Gott und verstorbenen Verwandten oder mit ehemaligen Freunden und Bekannten hatten und dabei eindrucksvolle Blicke ins Jenseits werfen durften. Sind das alles tatsachlich nur Hirn-gespinste, die alleine in Deutschland bereits uber 3 Millionen Menschen erlebt haben? Der Autor beschaftigt sich schon seit vielen Jahren mit dieser Thematik. Umfangreiche Informationen hierzu dienten als Grundlage fur einen Roman, dessen Handlung sich uberwiegend im Jenseits abspielt und so weitreichende Einblicke und Erkenntnisse aus einer ubernaturlichen Welt vermittelt.…
