In this collective work the author takes you on a hunt throughout their life, with 23 english and 6 german poems - including the first that combines both - to try and find what they've lost during childhood trauma, together; No matter if they have to trek through shimmering waves, thick foliage slowly decaying in autumn or crash though the morning clouds, they've faced it all to try and clasp their hands around it. They'll do their best to show you how their passion for art brought them back to life after not being able to hear hope for so long; Perhaps, you too find solace within this bloody poetry. They did.

The author, a computer science professor diagnosed with terminal cancer, explores his life, the lessons that he has learned, how he has worked to achieve his childhood dreams, and the effect of his diagnosis on him and his family.

My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

A nineteenth century Russian literature classic that “can still make new readers laugh and gasp with recognition over timeless human foibles.” (The Guardian) An Ordinary Story describes the coming of age of Alexander Aduyev, a romantic young man from the provinces who moves to Petersburg in search of love and a career. Psychologically acute in its delineation of Aduyev’s relationship with his successful and unsentimental mentor uncle, this is a work of complexity and great charm. Featuring a stage adaptation, this edition of An Ordinary Story will enhance Goncharov’s reputation as one of the legends of Russian literary history. “The conversations between Alexander and his uncle are witty and gripping, the various love affairs poignant and credible, several minor characters are deliciously comic, and the whole book well worth rediscovery.” —The Washington Post
