Paperback. Etat : Good. Magnus is a deeply moving and enigmatic novel about the Holocaust. It has been Sylvie Germain's most commercially successful novel in France. Magnus is a man searching for his own identity, who pieces together the complex puzzle of his life, which turns out to be closer to a painting by Edward Munch than the romantic tale of family heroism and self-sacrifice on which he was nurtured by the woman he believed was his mother. In Magnus, Sylvie Germain uses imagination and intuition to unlock the enigma of human life and confer on history the power of myth and fable. Magnus won the Goncourt Lyceen Prize, selected by French High School Students as the best novel of the year from the main Goncourt Prize Shortlist. It is a short and profound novel suitable for 16-year-olds upwards and is a good starting point for exploration of the Holocaust.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. In the title poem, the poet advises her granddaughters metaphorically to swim in the obscure. In this, her second collection, Peggy O'Brien tries to do just that in order to probe the shadows cast by love in its different forms. She uses the music in poetry to celebrate the prosaic tenacity and patience our most intimate bonds require, not least our hold on life itself. In a book where the color red makes more than a few appearances and war is a frequent backdrop, the poet confronts collective aggression by trying to understand personal anger. Fortunately, when she swims in dangerous waters, Peggy O'Brien usually wears the life-jacket of humour. Peggy O'Brien is a member of the English Department at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. She formerly taught at Trinity College, Dublin, having lived in Ireland for nearly twenty years. Her first collection of poetry, published on both sides of the Atlantic, was Sudden Thaw (2004).…

One of the friends is a doctor, and the masked men say that they need him to assist a noblewoman, who is about to give birth. When they reach the house, they find no such noblewoman, only a dead man. Another man, known only as A.M.C., bursts in at this point and declares that the man died of opium poisoning. The doctor writes a letter to a newspaper editor, setting out the facts as he knows them. These facts are rebutted first by a friend of A.M.C. and then by the first masked man, who explains the whole story.
