ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 395 In this 395th issue of the Baba Indaba?s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the Mexican legend, "THE GARDEN OF PARADISE? by H C Andersen. Once upon a time, a long, long time ago and far, far away, there was a king's son; nobody had so many or such beautiful books as he. He could read about everything which had ever happened in this world, and see it all represented in the most beautiful pictures. He could even get information about every nation and every country; but as to where the Garden of Paradise was to be found, not a word could he discover, and this was the very thing he thought most about. He walked into the wood one day and soon found himself to be all alone, and this was his greatest pleasure. Evening came on, the clouds drew up and it stormed and rained as if the whole heaven had become a sluice from which the water poured in sheets. Soon it was as dark as the deepest well. Trying to make his way home he slipped on the wet grass, and tripped over the stones and rocks which jutted out of the ground. Looking for shelter, he saw in front of him a big lighted cave. A large fire was burning in the middle over which a stag was roasting. It had huge antlers and was stuck on a spit, being slowly turned round between the hewn trunks of two fir trees. An oldish woman, tall and strong enough to be a man dressed up, sat by the fire throwing on logs from time to time. When she saw him she invited him in to warm up and dry his clothes. He learned he was in the cavern of the winds and the old woman their mother. Soon he met the four winds and thinking quickly he asked the question, ?Has anyone seen the Garden of Paradise?? What happened next you ask? Were any of the four winds angered by this question, or did something else happen? Did the Prince ever find the Garden of Paradise?

On the death of his father, who was a rich merchant, the son inherited a vast fortune, which he quickly spent.

ISBN: 1442269839

Claude Debussy’s exquisite piano works have captivated generations with their dreamlike atmosphere and mysterious soundscapes. Written in Paris at the height of the Belle Époque, the music creates a soundtrack for Parisians’ enjoyment of such delights as clowns, mermaids, eccentric dances, and the dark tales of Edgar Allan Poe. Debussy’s Paris: Piano Portraits of the Belle Époque explores how key works reflect not only the most appealing and innocent aspects of Paris but also more disquieting attitudes of the time such as racism, colonial domination, and nationalistic hostility. Debussy left no avenue unexplored, and his piano works present a sweeping overview of the passions, vices, and obsessions of the era. Pianist Catherine Kautsky reveals little-known elements of Parisian culture and weaves the music, the man, the city, and the era into an indissoluble whole. Her portrait will delight anyone who has ever been entranced by Debussy’s music or the city that inspired it.

Aunt Mille has always told me that I have the soul of a great poet. I am not sure about this, but I love her so much that I do not dare contradict her. The reason I love her so much is that she always gave me and my brothers and sisters lots of sweets when we were little. Now that I am a student, I have my own apartment and sometimes Aunt Mille comes to visit. The other night, while she was sleeping in the next bedroom, I received a visit from another, much less pleasant, lady... Since then, I do not see Aunt Mille in the same way!
