Year Of The Horseshoe Bat - In Exile - Or The Legend Of Jv

by Hall Gardner

~~19,88€~~ 15,90€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 Chia Pao-yu is alive and well! The Beijing University pro-democracy activist is living in exile under an assumed name, Jean Valjaur (JV). As was rumored in the prequel, Year of the Earth Serpent Changing Colors, Chia was not executed for helping to organize the April-June 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. Now in Paris, he witnesses the Bataclan terrorist attacks, the Yellow Vest protests, and survives the COVID-19 (or Horseshoe Bat) pandemic—after having survived the AIDS pandemic in China in the 1980s. He pursues his self-study of Asian influence on Pop artists and Beat poets. He likewise critiques the views of western "Maoists," like Mylex H. Galvin—whom Chia depicts as a "Wokeist" before his time. During the pandemic lockdown, Chia reflects on the reasons why he became a pro-democracy, pro-environment and anti-nuclear dissident. In Paris, Chia finds work with the Foundation for Human Values Forever (HVF), directed by the charismatic feminist Bereft LaPlante. He meets dissidents like himself who have suffered for their political views and gender. Now a French citizen, Chia participates in Hong Kong protests, and takes part in a conference on the "Future of China" in Washington, D.C. There, he witnesses President Trump’s threat to call in U.S. "G.I. Joes" to repress protests in June 2020—a threat that recalls the June 1989 Tiananmen Square repression by the People’s Liberation Army. Back in Paris, he accidentally learns that the HVF Foundation finances questionable activities not related to humanitarian causes—and quits after a drunken LaPlante, accused of anti-Semitism, attempts to seduce him. He then starts to work for the secretive Society for the Exploration of Cosmic Consciousness (SECC) that publishes a version of his "Planetary Manifesto" that is redacted by Artificial Intelligence. His warning now appears lost in the babble of Social Media: If the U.S. Balding Eagle, the Chinese Red Dragon, and the Russian Double-Headed Eagle cannot soon resolve their differences, then the popular hopes of "Barbies" and "Kens" for global peace will soon be crushed by the boots of "G.I. Joe" and rival militias. Chia soon disappears in a suspected trade-off for a Western spy held by Beijing—at least that is how the Global News Media carries the story.

Jesus Christ And Mary From Qur'Anic-Islamic Perspective - Fundamental Principles For Dialogue Between Islam And Christianity

by Ahmed Ginaidi

~~15,89€~~ 12,71€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 The necessity of a religious dialogue between Christians and Muslims these days has come to mind very often for a lot of reasons - especially in the process of globalization. What happened on September 11, 2001 and its consequences have reinforced the necessity. Not only a religion but also its followers, numbering more than a billion people, run the risk of falling into disrepute thereby.Islamic teaching according to the latest religion coming from Abraham confirms the previous religions. Islam is the only religion after Christ which recognizes in Jesus not only the Word of God, but also sees in Jesus a sign of God''s love and mercy. The following verse is a witness to the importance of the Jewish and the Christian belief from the Islamic view."Say ye: "We believe in God, and the revelation given to us, and to Ibrahim, Isma''il, Ishaq, Ya''qub, and the Tribes, and that given to Musa and ''Isa, and that given to (all) Prophets from their Lord: we make no difference between one and another of them: and we bow to God (in Islam)." [2:136] The diversity in God''s offer is a wealth which we absolutely must recognize today.

Memory Is Our Home - Loss And Remembering: Three Generations In Poland And Russia 1917-1960s

by Suzanna Eibuszyc

24,20€ + 10% CARD

free shipping

 Memory is Our Home is a powerful biographical memoir based on the diaries of Roma Talasiewicz-Eibuszyc, who was born in Warsaw before the end of World War I, grew up during the interwar period and who, after escaping the atrocities of World War II, was able to survive in the vast territories of Soviet Russia and Uzbekistan. Translated by her own daughter, interweaving her own recollections as her family made a new life in the shadows of the Holocaust in Communist Poland after the war and into the late 1960s, this book is a rich, living document, a riveting account of a vibrant young woman's courage and endurance. A forty-year recollection of love and loss, of hopes and dreams for a better world, it provides richly-textured accounts of the physical and emotional lives of Jews in Warsaw and of survival during World War II throughout Russia. This book, narrated in a compelling, unique voice through two generations, is the proverbial candle needed to keep memory alive.
