Book Description
Our lives are an unexpected blend of many experiences, and most people live many lives within one. In Love is Always the Answer, Miriam Freedman begins by sharing her childhood experience of hiding for months in a basement during the Holocaust, then living in Israel during its early formation, and finally moving to London where she became a teacher of yoga and spiritual arts. There she met another, most profound teacher, a Russian woman named Mrs. Irina Tweedie, who had herself studied with a Sufi master in India. This specialized form of teaching was geared toward awakening love in one's heart. This book chronicles the spiritual relationship between these two women as they reveal their knowledge and wisdom, analyze significant dreams, and share direct experiences of altered states. An inspiration, and a trustworthy guide to those on a spiritual path. "Your remarkable autobiography is truly a life-affirming story of courage and resilience in the face of the trage-dy of the Holocaust." -- Daniel Taub, Ambassador of Israel to the Court of St. James's "The trajectory of Miriam's life -- from its dark beginnings under the terrors of Nazi Europe, to the attainment of her heart's light and spirit's power in London under her spiritual teacher, Mrs. Irina Tweedie -- demon-strates the true organic nature of the spiritual path.... Love, indeed, is the beginning and the end of it, though there is no end...." -- Seza Magdalena Eccles, magazine and book publisher ["An autobiography of a Holocaust survivor who has found her own remarkable and alternative ways to deal with her emotions and trauma from the past. We can all learn something from this book." Aviva Trup, RGN, RMN, BSc Community Health, Service Manager, Holocaust Survivor Centre] "Love Is Always the Answer is a testimony of how one person can go beyond even the most challenging circum-stances to realise the gift that God planted deep within our hearts. -- Ginger Gilmour, artist and writer "You will read this book, and never again will you look at a human being and presume you know them." -- Judith Ashton, psychotherapist/body therapist, former student of Irina Tweedie . ..".Miriam began a life-long embrace of Mrs. Tweedie and her master Bhai Sahib, also known as Guruji. This book is a loving story of their relationships, as well as a superb exposition of their ideas. It describes how Mrs. Tweedie and Gurji came to be taken into Miriam's heart." --from the Preface, Dr. Joseph Berke "I can still remember the day when Mrs. Irina Tweedie came to my father from London, England.... She became one of his closest disciples, and spread his path throughout the entire Western world.....Miriam, like Mrs. Tweedie, has devoted her life to this path. I am confident that this book will be of great benefit to all who read it. -- Ravindra Nath, eldest son of Mahatma Radha Mohan Laliji

Book Description
“A beautifully written and well-researched cultural criticism as well as an honest memoir” (Los Angeles Review of Books) from the author of the popular New York Times essay, “To Fall in Love with Anyone, Do This,” explores the romantic myths we create and explains how they limit our ability to achieve and sustain intimacy. What really makes love last? Does love ever work the way we say it does in movies and books and Facebook posts? Or does obsessing over those love stories hurt our real-life relationships? When her parents divorced after a twenty-eight year marriage and her own ten-year relationship ended, those were the questions that Mandy Len Catron wanted to answer. In a series of candid, vulnerable, and wise essays that takes a closer look at what it means to love someone, be loved, and how we present our love to the world, “Catron melds science and emotion beautifully into a thoughtful and thought-provoking meditation” (Bookpage). She delves back to 1944, when her grandparents met in a coal mining town in Appalachia, to her own dating life as a professor in Vancouver. She uses biologists’ research into dopamine triggers to ask whether the need to love is an innate human drive. She uses literary theory to show why we prefer certain kinds of love stories. She urges us to question the unwritten scripts we follow in relationships and looks into where those scripts come from. And she tells the story of how she decided to test an experiment that she’d read about—where the goal was to create intimacy between strangers using a list of thirty-six questions—and ended up in the surreal situation of having millions of people following her brand-new relationship. “Perfect fodder for the romantic and the cynic in all of us” (Booklist), How to Fall in Love with Anyone flips the script on love. “Clear-eyed and full of heart, it is mandatory reading for anyone coping with—or curious about—the challenges of contemporary courtship” (The Toronto Star).

Book Description
An investigation of love in all its forms, featuring conversations with Lisa Taddeo, Esther Perel, Emily Nagoski, Kate Bowler, Alain de Botton, Stephen Grosz, Roxane Gay and others Journalist Natasha Lunn was almost 30 when she realized that there was no map for understanding love. While she was used to watching friends fall in and out of love, the older she got the more she had to acknowledge: her friends' relationship struggles could no longer be chalked up to youth, and the more she learned about her parents, grandparents, work colleagues, and mentors the clearer it became that age had not brought any of them any closer to understanding this elusive, transformative, consuming emotion. One night during the months she found this realization settling over her, she sat up in bed and jotted three words in a notebook: conversations on love. In that moment, Lunn understood that she didn't want advice about love, she wasn't looking for the answers, or evergreen wisdom but she craved candid, wide-ranging, sometimes uncomfortable conversations about the parts of love that often don't make it into our everyday discussions of marriage, sibling relationships, friendships, or mother/daughter bonds. Conversations on Love started as an experiment aimed at interviewing experts about what love meant to them, in all of it's messiness, and quickly blossomed into a newsletter that attracted thousands of subscribers and a prestigious range of interviewees. It turns out that Lunn wasn't the only person ready to talk more openly and expansively about love. Interweaving personal essays and revealing interviews with some of the most sough-after experts on love, journalist Natasha Lunn guides us through the paradoxical heart of three key questions about love--How do we find love? How do we sustain it? And how do we survive when we lose it?--to deliver a book that is a solace, a beacon, a call to arms, a tool-kit. The real-life love stories in these pages will leave you hopeful and validated, while the insights from experts will transform the way you think about your relationships. Above all, Conversations on Love will remind you what love is: fragile, sturdy, mundane, beautiful, always worth fighting for.

Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A special 25th anniversary edition of the beloved book that has changed millions of lives with the story of an unforgettable friendship, the timeless wisdom of older generations, and healing lessons on loss and grief—featuring a new afterword by the author “A wonderful book, a story of the heart told by a writer with soul.”—Los Angeles Times “The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.” Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it. For Mitch Albom, that person was his college professor Morrie Schwartz. Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn’t you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you, receive wisdom for your busy life today the way you once did when you were younger? Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man’s life. Knowing he was dying, Morrie visited with Mitch in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final “class”: lessons in how to live. “The truth is, Mitch,” he said, “once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.” Tuesdays with Morrie is a magical chronicle of their time together, through which Mitch shares Morrie’s lasting gift with the world.

Book Description
The most ambitious work of fiction by a writer widely considered the most important novelist working in China today In this darkly comic novel, a group of women inhabits a world of constant surveillance, where informants lurk in the flowerbeds and false reports fly. Conspiracies abound in a community that normalizes paranoia and suspicion. Some try to flee—whether to a mysterious gambling bordello or to ancestral homes that can only be reached underground through muddy caves, sewers, and tunnels. Others seek out the refuge of Nest County, where traditional Chinese herbal medicines can reshape or psychologically transport the self. Each life is circumscribed by buried secrets and transcendent delusions. Can Xue's masterful love stories for the new millennium trace love's many guises—satirical, tragic, transient, lasting, nebulous, and fulfilling—against a kaleidoscopic backdrop drawn from East and West of commerce and industry, fraud and exploitation, sex and romance.

Book Description
