'You're 82 years old. You've shrunk six centimetres, you only weigh 45 kilos yet you're still beautiful, graceful and desirable' – so begins André Gorz's 'open love letter' to the woman he has lived with for 58 years and who lies dying next to him. As one of France's leading post-war philosophers, André Gorz wrote many influential books, but nothing he wrote will be read as widely or remembered as long as this simple, passionate, beautiful letter to his dying wife. In a bittersweet postscript a year after Letter to D was published, a note pinned to the door for the cleaning lady marked the final chapter in an extraordinary love story. André Gorz and his terminally ill wife, Dorine, were found lying peacefully side by side, having taken their lives together. They simply could not live without one another. An international bestseller, Letter to D is the ultimate love story – and all the more poignant because it's true.

The New York Times bestselling true story of an all-American girl and a boy from Zimbabwe and the letter that changed both of their lives forever. It started as an assignment... Everyone in Caitlin's class wrote to an unknown student somewhere in a distant place. Martin was lucky to even receive a pen-pal letter. There were only ten letters, and fifty kids in his class. But he was the top student, so he got the first one. That letter was the beginning of a correspondence that spanned six years and changed two lives. In this compelling dual memoir, Caitlin and Martin recount how they became best friends—and better people—through their long-distance exchange. Their story will inspire you to look beyond your own life and wonder about the world at large and your place in it.

The author writes a beautiful book about his life, starting with the peace and stability he enjoyed as a child and how that all fell apart when his father died. Going through one transition after another marked him permanently, which he shares in almost poetic prose. Reading the scenes feels like watching a movie, one about a man who comes to know God as his true father. Readers will also come to know and love the Great Provider as a result of reading this magnificent story. Hungry and homeless in a foreign country, Antoine Desire Ongolo experiences a long journey through the desert during which his faith is put to the test. Exhausted, he decides to turn to God in a letter that will prove lifesaving. A Letter to God is the story of an extraordinary faith that led a man out of abject misery when nothing in his situation suggested a better future. In West Africa, in the throes of suffering and doubt, the author, who now lives in the United States, wrote a letter to God, an act of unprecedented faith that changed the course of his life. This true story will renew your hope, whatever challenge you have to face. Fatherless at the age of ten, Antoine Desire Ongolo had to face life and its hardships early on in his native Cameroon. From this early suffering emerged a strength of character that enabled him to experience, with the help of God, despite everything, a definite upward social mobility: he holds a bachelor s degree in communication and a master's in business administration. On a professional level, he has had a distinguished career as a journalist in radio and television. Now gifted with an entrepreneurial vision, Antoine Desire Ongolo is currently working on several audiovisual projects.

This excellent translation makes available a classic work central to one of the most interesting controversies of the eighteenth century: the quarrel between Rousseau and Voltaire. Besides containing some of the most sensitive literary criticism ever written (especially of Molière), the book is an excellent introduction to the principles of classical political thought. It demonstrates the paradoxes of Rousseau's thought and clearly displays the temperament that led him to repudiate the hopes of the Enlightenment.

In 1939, as the Nazis closed in, Alfred Berger mailed a desperate letter to an American stranger who happened to share his last name. He and his wife, Viennese Jews, had found escape routes for their daughters. But now their money, connections, and emotional energy were nearly exhausted. Alfred begged the American recipient of the letter, “You are surely informed about the situation of all Jews in Central Europe.... By pure chance I got your address.... My daughter and her husband will go... to America.... Help us to follow our children.... It is our last and only hope....” After languishing in a California attic for decades, Alfred’s letter ended up in the hands of Faris Cassell, a journalist who couldn’t rest until she discovered the ending of the story. Traveling across the United States as well as to Austria, the Czech Republic, Belarus, and Israel, she uncovered an extraordinary story of heart-wrenching loss and unforgettable love that endures to this day. Did the Bergers’ desperate letter find a response? Did they—and their daughters—survive? Did they leave living descendants? You will find the answers here. A story that will move any reader, The Unanswered Letter is a poignant reminder that love and hope never die.
