Mara has built her life around hard decisions. As the director of an overcrowded animal shelter, she knows compassion alone is not enough. Every intake is a calculation. Every yes has a cost. Every life must fit within the limits of space, staffing, and time. When a senior dog named Calder is surrendered, Mara makes room for him. Then another old dog arrives. And another. What begins as a single act of mercy soon becomes a quiet reckoning, one that draws scrutiny from donors, board members, and the system around her.

In December 1937, in the capital of China, one of the most brutal massacres in the long annals of wartime barbarity occurred. The Japanese army swept into the ancient city of Nanking and within weeks not only looted and burned the defenseless city but systematically raped, tortured and murdered more than 300,000 Chinese civilians. Amazingly, the story of this atrocity- one of the worst in world history- continues to be denied by the Japanese government.

After losing her research job in the city, Anna Attar heads home to Serenity Falls with nothing but a suitcase and a plan: lay low, help her sister for a few months, and get back on her feet.

And Anna finds herself returning to the family perfume tradition she tried to leave behind.

Iris Radisch nimmt den Leser mit auf eine faszinierende Reise durch Camus' Leben und Werk. Dieser Autor ist kein Heiliger. Sein Leben und seine Bücher erzählen von der Sehnsucht nach den großen, elementaren Erlebnissen, vom Glück der Beschränkung auf das Essentielle, vom Zauber der Einfachheit. Camus verwickelt seine Leser in die grundlegenden Fragen nach richtig und falsch, nach gut und böse, und seine Werke fordern heraus zu einem neuen Nachdenken über die Natur des Menschen.

Clara Winters doesn't believe in soulmates. Not anymore. She believes in keeping the lights on at Fireside Manor, the bed-and-breakfast she owns and is desperately trying to save. Her plan for the season is simple: deliver cookies to the Winter Festival, greet her lone guest, and hope for a miracle. Then Ethan arrives. Charming, mysterious, and impossible to ignore, Ethan encourages Clara to test the odd magic of Serenity Falls: when she kisses someone under the mistletoe, she can glimpse the love they lost.

An Epiphany in Lilacs is a novel set in a displaced persons camp outside Hamburg, Germany, following the end of World War II. After liberation in May 1945, Daniel, a 14-year-old Latvian Jew, is treated in a field hospital in the British zone of partitioned Germany. A survivor of various concentration camps, Daniel fights to recover from starvation and disease. Racked by nightmares, a nearly nightly occurrence, Daniel finds sleep almost impossible.

Iris Murdoch once observed: 'philosophy is often a matter of finding occasions on which to say the obvious'. What was obvious to Murdoch, and to all those who read her work, is that Good transcends everything—even God. Throughout her distinguished and prolific writing career, she explored questions of Good and Bad, myth and morality. The framework for Murdoch's questions—and her own conclusions—can be found here.
