Book Description

My childhood life was very pleasant despite having a very religious family. In life, when one becomes a teenager, he has his own visions and that is to meet his own self. The most important thing is to not stop listening to your heart because the heart feels what is right when the mind is confused. All the circumstances of life are always leading us toward learning. Although there are hard times, the best way to see more things is to know that it is impossible to separate the good from the bad for the great reason that everything is united. I can only say that the moment we have our hearts connected with emotions, it will be the great moment to understand that the roads in destiny have no escape. Only understandings in difficult moments together with deep silences lead to successful exits which the best way to heal your mind and your body will follow you. Life is not lost when we stop breathing. life is lost when we stop being happy.

Book Description

A stunning, powerful debut novel set against the backdrop of the Cambodian War, perfect for fans of Chris Cleave and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie For seven-year-old Raami, the shattering end of childhood begins with the footsteps of her father returning home in the early dawn hours bringing details of the civil war that has overwhelmed the streets of Phnom Penh, Cambodia's capital. Soon the family's world of carefully guarded royal privilege is swept up in the chaos of revolution and forced exodus. Over the next four years, as she endures the deaths of family members, starvation, and brutal forced labour, Raami clings to the only remaining vestige of childhood - the mythical legends and poems told to her by her father. In a climate of systematic violence where memory is sickness and justification for execution, Raami fights for her improbable survival. Displaying the author's extraordinary gift for language, In the Shadow of the Banyanis testament to the transcendent power of narrative and a brilliantly wrought tale of human resilience. 'In the Shadow of the Banyanis one of the most extraordinary and beautiful acts of storytelling I have ever encountered' Chris Cleave, author of The Other Hand 'Ratner is a fearless writer, and the novel explores important themes such as power, the relationship between love and guilt, and class. Most remarkably, it depicts the lives of characters forced to live in extreme circumstances, and investigates how that changes them. To read In the Shadow of the Banyan is to be left with a profound sense of being witness to a tragedy of history' Guardian 'This is an extraordinary debut … as beautiful as it is heartbreaking' Mail on Sunday

Book Description

Silent Scream of a Blue Shadow is a thought provoking poetry book penned by a policeman who writes about emotions and feelings in short, often deep and dark poetic verses that tear away at the festering scabs of society. His poetry is often not for the faint-hearted in its descriptive essence of life overall He tries to personify his writings to illustrate the life behind the high walls we all put up and show us the reality that often we pretend does not exist. His writing bears testimony to the sadness and chaotic life that surrounds all policemen and woman in many countries and tries to take the reader, albeit for a short period, into a life of a Blue Shadow.

Laela Redguard was born with the black hair of the Northern kingdom and the blue eyes of the Southern people, forever marking her as a hated half-breed child of both. When her only family tie is severed, the fierce and strong-willed Laela decides to leave her adoptive father’s home in the hopes of finding acceptance in the North, where the ruthless King Arenadd and the dark griffin Skandar rule.

When a stranger saves her life and gives her a place to stay, Laela is shocked to learn he is Arenadd himself—a man said to be a murderer who sold his soul to the Night God—the King without a heart. Arenadd is unsure what compels him to help this girl, but there is something about her that seems familiar, something he cannot remember—something that may rise up to banish the darkness forever…
