The Open Window by Stjepan Krešimir Kračun (1 Review)    Price verified 2 hours ago

FROM THE PREFACE This is a story about a man. He is just an ordinary man, no different from you and me. But he finds himself in a predicament. And as our story begins, he happens to find himself in a prison cell. However, due to the nature of his story, he might as well be in his living room, or somewhere out on the street. Still, he finds himself held captive but he is no less free than you and me are right now. And all that he ever wished for was to be free and happy. Isn't that what we all wish for? If freedom and happiness are what he wished for - how did this man manage to end up in a prison cell? He seems to have succeeded in doing the exact opposite of what he wanted. He can't be very clever then. But let's not be too hasty. The lofty peaks he wanted to climb were easy to see from the foot of the mountain, but the road was winding. The simplest things in life are the most important ones and they come quickly to mind, yet even when the story of our life is reaching its final chapters we can still see how far we've gone astray and how we'll never reach them in our lifetime. Yet we've professed during our entire lifetime that those were the only things we really wanted. The only things that we really needed. How is it that we've gone so far astray? Oh, we will have an abundance of excuses. But in our final moments, we will remember. We will remember our regrets. We will remember our dreams that we've forgotten to pursue, but it will be too late then. So we hope that in death - we will find them there. And maybe we will. And maybe we won't. But this man whose story we are about to tell - he did get what he wished for. Not in the way he thought he would, though - but he did get what he wished for. But that is life - it happens regardless of when and how we want it to happen. We all have our own stories and the lives we would like to live. And then we have the lives that we actually live. And these ...

Masochistic Mouthwash: Poetry Noir 1998 - 2003 by Stephen Donald Huff Price verified 3 hours ago

I have never seen so far into anyone's eyes as I saw into yours that day. Ever green, I had expected to find them. stagnant pools long left to lay, still and tepid. Yet, they were filled to astounding depth with colors I had not hoped to see, and movement that shimmered the deep far beyond my measure, far beyond my reach, lucid as noon shallows, clear as summer seas, verdant in the distance like impossible meadows we never touch, but dream to see. Troubled as they were and unfocused, in them, still and crystalline, reflected me... and my own eyes liquid, reflecting you. There in the mysterious grips of your waste, struggles this wretch where he so longs to be, for I could guess where your focus was lost to endless, vacant leagues, as I stood there beside you that day on the shores of your unfathomable seas. Reduced to nothing, I saw you on the far side, staring back at me. Spoken aloud, poetry is the ultimate masochistic mouthwash. Used regularly, it will sponge your brain and fire your breath. So, crack these covers, sip, swish, and rinse. In time, your silly sense of well-being will slip away, and your brain germs will never feel the same way, again.

Not Being There: Remember the sixties? Perhaps you really were there. by John Newton (4 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

'If you can remember anything about the sixties then you weren't there.' (Quote attributed to various well-known imbibers of illicit substances.) Is this really how things were? It's the summer of 1969 - conclusion of the mythologised sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll decade that has come to define the lives of those born in the years following the Second World War. But if the sixties were one long party, then Barry never received his invitation. For him there has been precious little sex or rock 'n' roll, and certainly no drugs. Stymied by his chronic shyness and lack of confidence, he worries that he might have missed out on the fun others seem to be having. Perhaps things are about to change though. A cool summer vacation job in a popular British seaside town might make all the difference. Well, maybe. This distinctive blend of laugh-out-loud humour and gentle pathos tracks an eventful year in Barry's student life. It's an account that should serve to enlighten those who can't remember the sixties, and abundantly entertain those who can.

The Truth Between Us (Bentwood Book 2) by Tammy L. Gray (444 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

Nine years to win her. Three years to love her. And one decision that destroyed it all. April Duncan was raised with three clear truths: the family name is absolute, ambition and success rule over every emotion, and love always comes with strings attached. Image was everything in her carefully crafted world... until the mirror cracked. Sean Taylor was April's best friend, the one man who taught her it was okay to let her guard down and to rely on someone. She trusted him. She loved him. Which made his deception the darkest kind of cruelty. Now, nearly a year later, she's ready to leave her failed engagement in the past and get back her life and her estranged family, even if it means dating a man solely for his connections. She'll never again choose love over loyalty. Sean has spent his entire life breaking barriers, facing challenges, and never giving up. Until one impossible choice destroyed his future and left him no option but to flee from the woman who annihilated his heart. Now he's back in Bentwood and determined to make her hear the truth and rebuild the trust he shattered. But April has become a mere shell of the woman who claimed his heart long ago. Winning her back is more than just seizing a victory, because if he fails... the girl he's loved for a lifetime will disappear forever. The Truth Between Us is the second book in the Bentwood series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but it is recommended that you begin with book one to get the full experience among this tight group of family and friends.

The Failed Hippie by Stuart Thut (2 Reviews)    Price verified 22 minutes ago

This is the story of a mad young fool on a spiritual search, who hit reality hard, and was changed. It is a fact based mildly satirical look at the Sixties and Seventies hippie culture and its influence on a vulnerable and already deeply damaged young person. Not without comedy, it is about his spontaneously born and unplanned journey to India. It gives vivid descriptions of the rigours suffered by many similar travellers who were part of that adventurous troop heading east. The writer has a colourful, clear style that manages to avoid cliches while encapsulating truths. This book is also an insightful look at the origins of ways of thinking that were at one time only adhered to by misfits, mavericks and freaks, but have now become integral parts of modern mainstream thinking. No apology is made for the fact that he ultimately came to see Christianity as the source of his solution.

Judi Series. The Truth About Tuesday by Gracious Osuagwu (1 Review)    Price verified 4 hours ago

Judi Series. The Truth About Tuesday is the winner of the 2022 suspense award. It has also been nominated as the African contemporary literature in 2022. Read the blurb and forward below. Blurb Sometimes, the truth is better left untold. When Judi altered this law and went on to seek a dark hidden secret, what she found instead was her life in turmoil of danger and now she must be brave and stand against those who will go to any length to have her mouth shut... even kill her. Will she be able to defeat all odds and expose such a daunting secret or will she be alive long enough to tell the tale? An eye opener to suspense crafted by a contemporary Nigerian writer. FOREWORD "The Truth About Tuesday" is the writer's first published novel amongst others. It is the explorative journey into the world of intrigue, of one woman's survival instincts in the face of danger, undaunted by the perniciousness of her adventure, all in a resolve to speak her own truth. The imagery in the novel encapsulates the writer's attempt to portray the Gothic, and how one metamorphoses through experiences of betrayal, desperation, and quest to be a moral compass in a world where humanity has lost relevance. Interestingly, adaptations and coinages from both contemporary and old-time literature create a view of perspectives from both worlds. Jane Ifunanya Nnaji (B.A/B.edu) (Editor)
