At a small seaside hotel, a young lady on holiday was sunning herself on the flat roof, clad only in a tiny bikini. Deciding that she might as well get an all-over tan, she glanced round to make sure that the roof was not overlooked and then removed her bikini. As she lay there on her stomach, the hotel manager suddenly appeared and said, ‘We don’t allow nude sunbathing up here, miss!’

The Holocaust: History in an Hour
The Holocaust: History in an Hour
Jemma J. Saunders
¥22.76
Love history? Know your stuff with History in an Hour. The Holocaust, in which 11 million people died, was the largest atrocity of the 20th century and perhaps the hardest to understand. Approximately 6 million Jews and 5 million others including Roma people, Poles, Russian prisoners of war, political prisoners, homosexuals, people of colour, Jehovah's Witnesses, and various other minorities were first persecuted and then murdered. How, both morally and logistically, had this came to happen? From received sentiments of anti-Semitism at the beginning of the 20th century, through the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party, to the Nuremberg Laws of 1935 and finally Second World War, the victimisation of these minorities intensified beyond precedent. With the complicity of a nation hatred became policy. Under the control of sadists, bureaucrats and even ordinary soldiers, irrational acts were then enacted on an industrial scale, and with the use of concentration camps, Western Europe witnessed its most shocking treatment of humanity in modern history.

Валерий Герланец

Свою новую экзотическую повесть о зверях и людях ?Чудо в перьях? ее автор адресовал тинейджерам. Именно в этом возрасте многие из них впервые задумываются над такими извечными вопросами, как: кто я? для чего живу? что такое любовь? Этими вопросами озабочен и главный герой повествования — неизвестный науке птицезверь по имени Хрум, обитающий в джунглях одной из далеких стран Юго-Восточной Азии. Он не желает жить ?по законам джунглей?, потому что окружающая его действительность наполнена насилием и кровожадностью. Хруму больше нравятся законы доброты, взаимной помощи и уважения, по которым живут дикие слоны, повстречавшиеся ему по пути к Большой Мутной реке. Главными героями повести выступает также троица юных представителей человеческого сообщества — Элиз Смит, Майк Питерс и Рэй Картер, которые приходят на помощь попавшему в беду странному зверенышу. Хрум вновь оказывается в своем привычном мире, где встречает похожее на него самого ?чудо в перьях?. Встреча с незнакомкой впервые пробуждает в нем неведомое ему ранее чувство… Повесть ?Чудо в перьях? написана в стиле экшен, с присущими автору мягким юмором и ?киношной? калейдоскопичностью построения сюжета.

She made him a cup of tea, warmed his slippers, loosened his collar and tie and stroked his head. ‘Shall we go to bed now?’ she suggested.‘Might as well,’ he replied. ‘If I go home, there’ll only be a row.’

English writer, philosopher and pioneering advocate of women's rights, Mary Wollstonecraft wrote novels, treatises, a travel narrative, a history of the French Revolution and a children's book. In her landmark feminist text, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), Wollstonecraft argued that women are not naturally inferior to men, but appeared to be only because they lacked education. She called for men and women to be treated equally, paving the way for the emergence of the feminist movement at the turn of the twentieth century.

Kisah Hikayat Nabi Adam AS Dalam Islam
Muhammad Xenohikari

Nabi Adam AS adalah tokoh dari Kitab Kejadian, Perjanjian Baru & Kitab Suci Al-Quran. Menurut mitos penciptaan dari agama-agama Abrahamik dia adalah seorang Nabi & manusia pertama. Dan menurut agama samawi pula merekalah leluhur dari semua manusia yang ada di bumi.Rincian kisah mengenai kehidupan Nabi Adam AS dan Siti Hawa (Eve) berbeda-beda antara agama Islam, Judaism, Nasrani maupun agama lain yang berkembang dari ketiga agama Abrahamik ini.Nabi Adam AS hidup selama 930 tahun, sedangkan Siti Hawa (Eve) diciptakan ketika Adam berusia 130 tahun. Al-Quran memuat kisah Adam dalam beberapa surat, di antaranya Surat Al-Baqarah (2):30-38 dan Surat Al-A’raaf (7):11-25.Menurut ajaran agama Abrahamik, anak-anak Nabi Adam AS dan Siti Hawa dilahirkan secara kembar, yaitu, setiap bayi lelaki dilahirkan bersamaan dengan seorang bayi perempuan. Adam menikahkan anak lelakinya dengan anak gadisnya yang tidak sekembar dengannya.Menurut hadits Nabi Muhammad SAW yang diriwayatkan oleh Imam Bukhari, Nabi Adam AS memiliki postur badan dengan ketinggian 60 hasta. Hadits mengenai ini pula ditemukan dalam riwayat Imam Muslim dan Imam Ahmad, namun dalam sanad yang berbeda.Sosok Nabi Adam AS digambarkan sangat beradab sekali, seorang Nabi yang cerdas, jujur, saleh, memiliki ilmu yang tinggi dan ia bukan makhluk purba. Ia berasal dari surga (jannah) yang berperadaban maju. Turun ke muka bumi bisa sebagai makhluk asing dari sebuah peradaban yang jauh lebih maju dan cerdas, dari peradaban di bumi sampai kapanpun, oleh karena itulah Allah SWT menunjuknya sebagai khalifah (pemimpin) di muka bumi ini.Dalam gambarannya ia adalah makhluk yang teramat cerdas, sangat dimuliakan oleh Allah SWT, memiliki kelebihan yang sempurna dibandingkan makhluk yang lain sebelumnya dan diciptakan dalam bentuk yang terbaik dan sempurna. Sesuai dengan Surah Al Israa' 70, yang berbunyi:"...dan sesungguhnya telah Kami muliakan anak-anak Adam, Kami angkat mereka di daratan dan di lautan, Kami beri mereka rezeki dari yang baik-baik dan Kami lebihkan mereka dengan kelebihan yang sempurna atas kebanyakan makhluk yang telah Kami ciptakan."

A Packhorse Called Rachel
A Packhorse Called Rachel
Marcelle Kellermann
¥24.44
A story of courage, fear and defiance based on the authors own personal experience. A Pack Horse Called Rachel is the remarkable tale of a young woman, half Jewish, caught in the extraordinarily brutal world of France in 1944. Rachel moves through the pages of the book with her faithful dog Nourse, touching lives as her work with the Maquis based in the Auvergne takes her perilously close to danger on a day to day basis.The story is based on personal experience, the de*ion of historical events is as true as memory will allow, it is an elegantly written story capturing first hand Kellermann’s painful and lonely life as a resistance fighter within the ‘Maquis’, amidst the harsh beauty of the Auvergne. Beset by the freezing cold climate prevailing in winter, the Vichy traitors amongst the normal French Population and the hostility of ordinary people afraid for their own lives. Rachel overcomes the initial animosity and mistrust of the lecherous and alcoholic farmer Raboullet on whom she comes to rely; the wrath of the Gestapo, the betrayal of St Pré, a full and passionate love affair, tragic loss and yet she survives. Marcel Kellermann notes, with de*ive talent, and intricate detail that only someone especially observant could recall. From the opening raid to the closing trial, the book gives an incisive view, as we understand the mind and soul of the resistance better with each page. This is the story of a young woman paralleled with the struggle of a nation as it regains its courage to fight back.
