He recounts a childhood spent partly in hiding, navigating the absurd and brutal logic of a system built on racial classification, and the poverty, violence, and improvised survival of township life after apartheid's fall.\n\nAt the center of every story is his mother, Patricia — fearless, devout, stubborn, and endlessly resourceful — whose tough love and refusal to be limited shaped the man Noah became. Told in vivid, self-deprecating vignettes, the book is by turns hilarious and harrowing, a portrait of a singular family and a country remaking itself.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq72p60g7h4g55zxxzygyqy.jpg","LfK1BrD*%LxtHWWnozbb^kxuRkf8",336,[492],{"id":493,"slug":494,"name":495},"01kjq72p4e8ppvyvckn7dapqtf","trevor-noah-1rlv","Trevor Noah",[497,501,505,509,510,511,512,516],{"id":498,"name":499,"slug":500,"is_fiction":18},88,"Biography","biography",{"id":502,"name":503,"slug":504,"is_fiction":17},59,"Contemporary Literature","contemporary-literature",{"id":506,"name":507,"slug":508,"is_fiction":18},69,"Biography & Memoir","biography-memoir",{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":18},{"id":438,"name":439,"slug":440,"is_fiction":18},{"id":513,"name":514,"slug":515,"is_fiction":18},89,"Memoir","memoir",{"id":517,"name":518,"slug":519,"is_fiction":17},119,"Humor","humor",[],{"pace":106,"complexity":7,"audience":108,"mood":522,"themes":524,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[523,171],"funny",[525],"coming-of-age",{"id":527,"slug":528,"title":529,"description":530,"primary_cover_url":531,"cover_blurhash":532,"first_publish_year":371,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":151,"authors":533,"genres":538,"series":544,"enrichment":545},"01kkfh03pke856d1a7v63xzd86","seule-dans-raqqa-br6q","Seule dans Raqqa","This book tells the harrowing true story of Nissan Ibrahim, a Syrian woman who defied ISIS from within Raqqa, the group's de facto capital.

His wish is granted. As Dorian, encouraged by the cynical, epigram-spouting Lord Henry Wotton, gives himself over to a life of pleasure, cruelty, and corruption, his face remains untouched — while the portrait, hidden away, grows monstrous with every sin.\n\nOscar Wilde's only novel is a dark fable of aestheticism, vanity, and moral consequence, as sharp in its wit as it is unsettling in its horror. Around Dorian's unchanging beauty, Wilde builds a Faustian parable about the cost of a life lived purely for sensation, and a portrait of Victorian society's obsession with surface and youth.\n\nFirst published in 1890 and expanded the following year, the book scandalised its first readers and remains one of the most enduring works of Gothic and philosophical fiction in English.","https:\u002F\u002Fcovers.openlibrary.org\u002Fb\u002Fid\u002F15156805-L.jpg","L06a#84:01%20500~l_1?I02~T-:",1890,"4.55",320,[807,811],{"id":808,"slug":809,"name":810},"01kjqtyw338nszf68q3cd3wx0q","oscar-wilde-e6uf","Oscar Wilde",{"id":812,"slug":813,"name":814},"01km6s1x9ssy8cykv6n0qy1by3","jennifer-wicke-skbg","Jennifer Wicke",[816,820,824,825,826,830,831,832],{"id":817,"name":818,"slug":819,"is_fiction":17},2,"Fantasy","fantasy",{"id":821,"name":822,"slug":823,"is_fiction":18},79,"Education","education",{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},{"id":673,"name":674,"slug":675,"is_fiction":17},{"id":827,"name":828,"slug":829,"is_fiction":17},47,"Gothic","gothic",{"id":666,"name":667,"slug":668,"is_fiction":17},{"id":48,"name":49,"slug":50,"is_fiction":18},{"id":833,"name":834,"slug":835,"is_fiction":17},7,"Horror","horror",[],{"pace":106,"complexity":7,"audience":108,"mood":838,"themes":839,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[548,171],[],{"id":841,"slug":842,"title":843,"description":844,"primary_cover_url":845,"cover_blurhash":846,"first_publish_year":847,"community_rating_avg":848,"community_rating_count":849,"page_count":147,"authors":850,"genres":859,"series":870,"enrichment":871},"01kkfgz1vctwec7a0ed8xwxpfk","alagnh-almtksr-pvi3","الأجنحة المتكسرة","The Broken Wings is Kahlil Gibran's early Arabic novella, a lyrical tale of doomed love set in early twentieth-century Beirut.

Through their tenderness and their suffering, Gibran mounts a searching critique of arranged marriage, religious power, and the constrained lives of women.\n\nWritten in Gibran's characteristically poetic, aphoristic prose, The Broken Wings is a foundational work of modern Arabic literature and an early expression of the spiritual and reformist themes that would later reach the wider world in The Prophet.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfgz1xqy92c0pysx7e0mex5.jpg","LeMtUCNG_MV@?^ozRPt7={r=NGoz",1912,"3.75",4,[851,855],{"id":852,"slug":853,"name":854},"01kjxg2qpngmdn17tk2sha438z","kahlil-gibran-zxdc","Kahlil Gibran",{"id":856,"slug":857,"name":858},"01kkfgz1xh2eajfc27wrfg04f4","throt-aakash-rldn","ثروت عكاشة",[860,861,865,866,867],{"id":666,"name":667,"slug":668,"is_fiction":17},{"id":862,"name":863,"slug":864,"is_fiction":17},13,"Poetry","poetry",{"id":48,"name":49,"slug":50,"is_fiction":18},{"id":673,"name":674,"slug":675,"is_fiction":17},{"id":849,"name":868,"slug":869,"is_fiction":17},"Romance","romance",[],{"pace":169,"complexity":7,"audience":108,"mood":872,"themes":875,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[873,874,171],"melancholic","romantic",[876,877],"forbidden-love","marriage-of-convenience",{"id":879,"slug":880,"title":881,"description":882,"primary_cover_url":883,"cover_blurhash":884,"first_publish_year":398,"community_rating_avg":652,"community_rating_count":849,"page_count":885,"authors":886,"genres":891,"series":908,"enrichment":909},"01kqs6vytf2wky2f0wyy67bg49","the-little-prince-idfi","The Little Prince","A pilot crash-lands in the Sahara Desert, hundreds of miles from any help, and there he meets a small boy who asks him, without preamble, to draw a sheep.

Sixteen years after promising to keep in touch, Albom—now a driven, workaholic sports journalist—reconnects with Morrie, who is in the final months of his life after a diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).\n\nWhat begins as a single visit becomes a standing appointment: every Tuesday, Albom flies across the country to sit with his dying mentor for one last course, this one on the meaning of life. Over fourteen Tuesdays, Morrie shares hard-won wisdom on the subjects that matter most—love, work, family, aging, forgiveness, regret, and how to make peace with death—while his body steadily fails him.\n\nPublished in 1997, Tuesdays with Morrie is a slim, deeply personal memoir that became one of the best-selling books of its kind. Its power lies less in plot than in the plain, unsentimental honesty of Morrie's lessons and the quiet transformation they work on the student who came to say goodbye.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fcontributions\u002Fwork\u002F01\u002F01kjq770atf8jg50egzea44kgs_6a044afad8dc0.jpg","LJNu@MEkD+%L~Bs:o1WBNLWBjZjs",1997,217,[923],{"id":924,"slug":925,"name":926},"01kjq770b2ezsd2znxxk95eden","mitch-albom-aazm","Mitch Albom",[928,929,930,931,932,933],{"id":498,"name":499,"slug":500,"is_fiction":18},{"id":513,"name":514,"slug":515,"is_fiction":18},{"id":506,"name":507,"slug":508,"is_fiction":18},{"id":472,"name":473,"slug":474,"is_fiction":18},{"id":434,"name":435,"slug":436,"is_fiction":18},{"id":48,"name":49,"slug":50,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":169,"complexity":7,"audience":108,"mood":936,"themes":938,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[171,937,549],"emotional",[],{"id":940,"slug":941,"title":942,"description":943,"primary_cover_url":944,"cover_blurhash":945,"first_publish_year":946,"community_rating_avg":947,"community_rating_count":849,"page_count":948,"authors":949,"genres":962,"series":980,"enrichment":981},"01kjwhxxyjgxdhrk4de0p29w8x","the-forty-rules-of-love-evia","The Forty Rules of Love","Ella Rubenstein is a forty-year-old wife and mother in suburban Massachusetts whose comfortable marriage has quietly emptied of passion. When she takes a job as a reader for a literary agency, her first assignment is a manuscript called \"Sweet Blasphemy\" — a novel about the thirteenth-century poet Rumi and the wandering dervish who transformed him.\n\nThat inner novel forms the book's second thread. In the Anatolian city of Konya, the respected scholar and preacher Rumi encounters Shams of Tabriz, a restless mystic who lives by forty rules of love. Their intense spiritual friendship — built on soul-to-soul conversation the Sufis call sohbet — remakes Rumi into one of history's greatest mystical poets, but it also unsettles his household and his city.\n\nAs Ella reads, the seven centuries and two cultures separating her from Shams begin to collapse. Rumi's awakening mirrors her own dawning restlessness, and a correspondence with the manuscript's author draws her toward a life she had stopped believing was possible.

In Sapiens, historian Yuval Noah Harari traces the story of our species from insignificant African apes to rulers of the world, arguing that three great revolutions shaped that ascent: the Cognitive Revolution that let us imagine and cooperate at scale, the Agricultural Revolution that tied us to land and grain, and the Scientific Revolution that armed us with unprecedented power.\n\nRanging across biology, economics, religion, and politics, Harari asks how Homo sapiens came to believe in gods, nations, money, and human rights — shared fictions that let millions of strangers work together — and what those fictions have cost us and the rest of the living world.\n\nProvocative and sweeping, Sapiens is a big-picture history of humankind that also turns its questions on the present: now that we are close to overcoming the constraints of biology, what kind of future do we actually want?","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fcontributions\u002Fwork\u002F01\u002F01kjq6y936bsrccmsswsf754fm_6a25c6237b4ce.jpg?v=92a9cf575c","LMRVtli_?^snw^kCkXV[yDWAVsoz",2011,"4.43",351,[996],{"id":997,"slug":998,"name":999},"01kjq6y93d1pxjppy63h7ngk7m","yuval-noah-harari-z3db","Yuval Noah Harari",[1001,1002,1003,1004,1008,1009,1010],{"id":193,"name":194,"slug":195,"is_fiction":18},{"id":151,"name":152,"slug":153,"is_fiction":18},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},{"id":1005,"name":1006,"slug":1007,"is_fiction":18},71,"Science & Nature","science-nature",{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":18},{"id":626,"name":627,"slug":628,"is_fiction":18},{"id":48,"name":49,"slug":50,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":106,"complexity":7,"audience":108,"mood":1013,"themes":1014,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[111,171],[],[]]
