Book excerpt: Shortly after her father’s death, Elisa Brodinsky Miller uncovered a cache of letters among his belongings. Written in Russian and Yiddish, with datelines in Tsarist and early Soviet Russia, the letters detail eight long years (1914-1922) during which Elisa’s father, his five siblings, and their mother spend apart from Elisa’s grandfather who had left for America, believing their separation would be short. Miller, a Russian affairs specialist, learns bit by bit with each translation about the family she knew so little about, and the eight years of history they lived through, enabling her for the first time to connect her own experiences with those who came before her. This captivating memoir bridges the past with the present, as we learn about her grandparents’ struggles to escape Tsarist Russia, her parents’ hopes for their marriage in America, and her own reach for meaning and purpose: each a generation with dreams—first theirs, now hers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Journalists are human being who see things through human-being eyes and bring to their news coverage feelings ... and experience from the rest of their human-being lives ... they flit across the globe covering all manner of news during which they are faced with a range of feelings, from horror to occasional joy. Usually left unexpressed, these feelings tends to emerge at unexpected ... times. Thoughtful accounts, if they emerge at all, are told to other journalists, sometimes to therapists and even more rarely, in published memoirs. These ... moments and encounters hardly ever make it into reports, encouraged as journalists are to be 'neutral and objective' ... Believing that all journalists have something to write home about [the editors] wanted to create a space for these stories ... to honour our fallen friends and colleagues ... Representing 25 countries, they have helped to create a mini-United Nations of writers, photographers, producers and camera operators. Drawing from their experiences in more than 40 countries, they write about the tragic, the sad, the poignant and sometimes the humorous"--Introduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Vallely transports the reader to places few will ever go: the very edges of the earth and of human endurance." —Evan Solomon In this gripping first-hand account, four seasoned adventurers navigate a sophisticated, high-tech rowboat across the Northwest Passage. One of the "last firsts" remaining in the adventure world, this journey is only possible because of the dramatic impacts of global warming in the high Arctic, which provide an ironic opportunity to draw attention to the growing urgency of climate change. Along the way, the team repeatedly face life-threatening danger from storms unparalleled in their ferocity and unpredictability and bears witness to unprecedented changes in the Arctic habitat and inhabitants, while weathering gale-force vitriol from climate change deniers who have taken to social media to attack them and undermine their efforts.

Book excerpt: The first crime novel in Romanian literature is now available in a new illustrated edition. The story is based on the classic Romanian folk poem Miorita. Vitoria Lipan is the wife of a shepherd living in a Moldavian village. She can't read or write but she has outstanding intuition. One day she gets a premonition that something happened to her husband, who was away looking to buy more sheep. Guided by archaic symbols and local superstitions, Vitoria embarks on a journey to learn the truth. Her character is a unique portrayal of a simple peasant woman in the 1930s. Despite being illiterate she becomes a true female sleuth, crushing every stereotype of that time period.
