Book Description
A dramatic journey that takes place between youthful aspirations and the brink of despair and terrible death Love, war, and remembering are all powerful themes in this moving story. The difficulties my family faced between the First and Second World Wars are the basis of this unusual book that I, a Holocaust survivor's son, have written. It is a heartbreaking tale of the journey from youthful hopes and dreams to the edge of despair and eventual death. The story is about burning love, the futility of war, and the extermination of innocent people because of different beliefs. Based on a true story, it took me three years of research and uncounted travel to Poland. It is not an easy book to read and is geared toward adult readers.

Book Description
"You are in danger as well...Please heed my warning..." So begins the diary written by Catherine Morgan as she describes the events of a Monday in 1810 Regency England. When another Catherine Morgan, who lives in present-day New York City, receives the diary, she is drawn into the mystery as the present Monday begins to resemble the Monday in 1810. Writing in the diary, Catherine pleads for help by hinting this particular Monday can be changed as long as the day doesn't end the same way. Catherine and her brother XJ desperately try to unravel the clues from 1810, but this is complicated since the chapters of the diary become visible only when the same events have taken place in the present. When a betrayal endangers the lives of those in 1810, present-day Catherine and XJ have less than 24 hours to uncover the mystery before the past repeats. Unfortunately, they think someone close to them might be conspiring to keep the mystery unsolved. If their Monday ends the same way as the diary of 1810, the events of the past will be forever repeated.

Book Description
Containing more than three hundred poems, including nearly a hundred previously unpublished works, this unique collection showcases the intellectual range of Claude McKay (1889-1948), the Jamaican-born poet and novelist whose life and work were marked by restless travel and steadfast social protest. McKay's first poems were composed in rural Jamaican creole and launched his lifelong commitment to representing everyday black culture from the bottom up. Migrating to New York, he reinvigorated the English sonnet and helped spark the Harlem Renaissance with poems such as "If We Must Die." After coming under scrutiny for his communism, he traveled throughout Europe and North Africa for twelve years and returned to Harlem in 1934, having denounced Stalin's Soviet Union. By then, McKay's pristine "violent sonnets" were giving way to confessional lyrics informed by his newfound Catholicism. McKay's verse eludes easy definition, yet this complete anthology, vividly introduced and carefully annotated by William J. Maxwell, acquaints readers with the full transnational evolution of a major voice in twentieth-century poetry.

Book Description
Jenny had her fill of feelings and emotions. She had just been through a tragedy that would engulf her life with questions in the anxiety of learning the truth. She had a loving father, a mother that changed with each season and a mother's love that faded into the past, only to show a glimpse before dying. Martin was the love of her life, she found disillusionment with that love with learning about a secret love affair to which a child was born. Jenny learned she had a twin sister Abby whom had been exiled from her mother's love and given away. Finding out Abby took her own life, was too much to bear. Exhaustion encrypted her life and claimed her heart. It was as if someone turned the hourglass and the secrets and memories were falling out. Her life as she knew it was falling into a dark hole. Now she had to share in the arrangements for a twin she never knew she had. To have a relationship with a grandfather, whom she thought was her best friends grandfather and now finding out everyone was uninformed of the truth was complete despair. If the grandfather knew, why didn't he tell the truth, and as far as Jenny felt, he was as guilty as her mother. To live your life believing you were an only child, never having any regrets. Honesty is the only way to live your life. Life had become a battlefield of lies, secretes and regrets. Jenny spoke aloud, "my whole life was a lie, and when the truth was embedded so deep it took a lifetime to surface." Jenny needed to pick up the pieces, but there were so many; could she pick up the pieces? Did she want to, that was up to Jenny to decide.
