The time of the novel is the closing months of the most senselessly savage of modern conflicts. In France, millions of men engaged in brutal trench warfare are all \"ghosts in the making.\" In England, psychologist William Rivers, with severe pangs of conscience, treats the mental casualties of the war to make them whole enough to fight again. One of these, Billy Prior, risen to the officer class from the working class, both courageous and sardonic, decides to return to France with his fellow officer, poet Wilfred Owen, to fight a war he no longer believes in. Meanwhile, Rivers, enfevered by influenza returns in memory to his experience studying a South Pacific tribe whose ethos amounted to a culture of death. Across the gulf between his society and theirs, Rivers begins to form connections that cast new light on his--and our--understanding of war. Combining poetic intensity with gritty realism, blending biting humor with tragic drama, moving toward a denouement as inevitable as it is devastating, *The Ghost Road* both encapsulates history and transcends it. It is a modern masterpiece.

All Our Worldly Goods, though, is complete, and exquisitely so – a perfect novel in its own right. First published in France in 1947, after the author's death, it is a gripping story of family life and starcrossed lovers, of money and greed, set against the backdrop of France from 1911 to 1940 between two terrible wars.Pierre and Agnes marry for love against the wishes of his parents and the family patriarch, the tyrannical industrialist Julien Hardelot, provoking a family feud which cascades down the generations. This is Balzac or The Forsyte Saga on a smaller, more intimate scale, the bourgeoisie observed close-up with Nemirovsky's characteristically sly humour and clear-eyed compassion. Full of drama and heartbreak, telling observation of the devastating effects of two wars on a small town and an industrial family, this is Nemirovsky at the height of her powers. The exodus and flow of refugee humanity through the town in both wars foreshadows Suite Francaise, but differently, because this is Northern France, near the Somme, and the town itself is twice razed.

The book follows Tsar Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra, their four daughters — Olga, Tatiana, Maria, and Anastasia — and their hemophiliac son and heir, Alexei, whose illness the family kept hidden from the public and drew them toward the mystic Grigori Rasputin.\n\nFleming alternates between the isolated, opulent life of the imperial court and first-person accounts from Russian peasants, factory workers, and soldiers, documenting the inequality, famine, and military failures of World War I that fed growing unrest. The narrative covers the 1905 uprising, the rise of revolutionary movements, the abdication of Nicholas II in 1917, and the family's imprisonment and eventual execution during the Russian Revolution.\n\nPublished in 2014, the book is a work of young-adult narrative nonfiction built from primary-source documents and photographs. It won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Young Adult Literature and the Boston Globe–Horn Book Award for Nonfiction, and was named a Robert F.

Sarah Piper's lonely threadbare existence changes when her temporary agency sends her to assist a ghost hunter. Alistair Gellis--rich, handsome, scarred by World War I, and obsessed by ghosts--has been summoned to investigate the spirit of the nineteen-year-old maid Maddy Clare, who is said to haunt the barn where she committed suicide. Maddy hated men in life, and she will not speak to them in death. But Sarah is unprepared to go alone into a haunted barn looking for the truth. She's even less prepared for the arrival of Alistair's associate, rough, unsettling Matthew Ryder, also a veteran of the trenches, whose scars go deeper than Sarah can reach. Soon, Sarah is caught up in a desperate struggle. For Maddy's ghost is no hoax--she's real, she's angry, and she has powers that defy all reason. Can Sarah and Matthew discover who Maddy was, where she came from, and what is driving her desire for vengeance...before she destroys them all?\"--","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ff41z0r7j9w41re40v7xr.jpg?v=9474da65d5","L8FqRF@J?Wko01~m-oni%LKK4;$%",2012,431,[906],{"id":907,"slug":908,"name":909},"01ktt0qrs0nbfggypmdev1nbeq","simone-st-james-74u8","Simone St. James",[911,915,919,920],{"id":912,"name":913,"slug":914,"is_fiction":19},212,"Historical Mystery","historical-mystery",{"id":916,"name":917,"slug":918,"is_fiction":19},35,"Paranormal Romance","paranormal-romance",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":763,"name":764,"slug":765,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":225,"complexity":10,"audience":164,"mood":923,"themes":924,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[584,360],[],{"id":926,"slug":927,"title":928,"description":929,"primary_cover_url":930,"cover_blurhash":931,"first_publish_year":932,"community_rating_avg":186,"community_rating_count":187,"page_count":933,"authors":934,"genres":939,"series":942,"enrichment":948},"01kx6mze1dm81vy4f9savdvy8n","the-penguin-book-of-first-world-war-poetry-2rfh","The Penguin Book of First World War Poetry","Edited with an introduction by George Walter, this anthology gathers First World War poetry from familiar names — Rupert Brooke, Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen — alongside less-anthologised writers such as Gilbert Frankau and Osbert Sitwell, poems by women on the home front, and anonymous soldiers' songs. Rather than grouping poets by name or reputation, the collection is arranged thematically to follow the war's course, from conscription and training through the fighting to its aftermath. Notes and biographical sketches accompany the poems, and Walter's introduction traces how the canon of war poetry has shifted since it was first anthologised.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6mze1tvdenmg9bc9jndk6x.jpg?v=99f037495d","LED043t7t6xt~UkCWBodS%flWBRk",2007,400,[935],{"id":936,"slug":937,"name":938},"01kx6mze1qtk6qjz6mkwgypr30","george-walter-xoop","George Walter",[940,941],{"id":220,"name":221,"slug":222,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},[943],{"id":944,"slug":945,"name":946,"position":947,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":10,"parent_slug":10,"parent_name":10},"01kr4qpt7t0ve5jmwwyjb7yn76","penguin-classics-lsaq","Penguin Classics","0.00",{"pace":161,"complexity":10,"audience":164,"mood":949,"themes":950,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[],[],{"id":952,"slug":953,"title":954,"description":955,"primary_cover_url":956,"cover_blurhash":957,"first_publish_year":9,"community_rating_avg":112,"community_rating_count":187,"page_count":958,"authors":959,"genres":968,"series":971,"enrichment":972},"01kx6n3cc2h01qn6mkpvq0pbpn","czars-ixc2","Czars","Discusses the reigns of the czars and czarinas who ruled Russia.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6n3ccj4a5wxk4fd65qwrdh.jpg?v=7fd512670b","L5LTNL+}00=e_Mo2iIt700WC~WOr",372,[960,964],{"id":961,"slug":962,"name":963},"01kx6n3ccc1z58v1rcgwtcxsqw","james-p-duffy-livg","James P.

Born in splendor difficult to imagine today, she endured a lifetime of relentless tragedy with courage and exceptional powers of adjustment. The Last Grand Duchess is a valuable account of the final decades of the house of Romanov as seen through the eyes of its last surviving member. Through Olga, we meet Queen Victoria, George V of England, Rasputin, Mrs. Anderson - on whose story the movie Anastasia was made - and other impostors who plagued the exiled duchess with false hope. In this official memoir, Ian Vorres captures the loneliness and violence of Olga's years in Russia, her loveless first marriage to Prince Peter of Oldenburg, her years of exile in England and Denmark, and her final settlement with her second husband and family in Canada.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nb389wtpv472vsskg8f5w.jpg?v=8f7818a0d3","LBLymSE1Q8rt4mRi%MxvY+xb*0xu",1964,[984],{"id":985,"slug":986,"name":987},"01kx6nb384563fnrc58ymtnd9m","ian-vorres-idbg","Ian Vorres",[989,990,991,992],{"id":409,"name":410,"slug":411,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":504,"name":505,"slug":506,"is_fiction":18},{"id":196,"name":197,"slug":198,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":161,"complexity":10,"audience":164,"mood":995,"themes":996,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[389,167],[231,391],[]]
