Trina Shahbaz was born and grew up in Afghanistan, where her father worked as a high-ranking government official. When she was fifteen, her parents sent her to the United States to continue her education at Emma Williard, an all-girls boarding school in Troy, New York. In this poignant coming-of-age memoir, Trina takes the reader along with her on the many paths of her odyssey--from her beloved homeland to an alien culture, from childhood and a large loving family to young adulthood, from the embrace of a close-knit family to foreign classrooms and dorm rooms where her fellow students knew little of her Afghan roots. As she adjusts to her new life, Trina endures intense homesickness, a demanding educational system, and at times, mocking classmates. Yet this is also a time of great self-discovery, academic enlightenment, and rewarding friendships. She finds strength in the wisdom of her culture, expressed through the words of Farsi poets. While growing up, her beloved father often quoted excerpts from these writings to his daughter to arm her with insight and courage as she faced life's challenges. Trina skillfully weaves these ballads, poems, and religious texts into her story, connecting her journey through adolescence at Emma Willard to the age-old knowledge of her ancient culture. In The Faint Ringing of a Caravan Bell, Trina reaches deep into her heart to share her pain and joy with the reader, ultimately overcoming the obstacles and embracing her future. ~ All net proceeds from book sales will be donated to Foundation for the Educational Development of Afghans in Afghanistan (FEDAA.org), whose vision is that every Afghan be educated to thrive, inspire, and unite.

In 1915, Armenian Christians in Turkey were forced to convert to Islam, barred from speaking their language, and often driven out of their homes as the Turkish army embarked on a widespread campaign of intimidation and murder. In this riveting book, Margaret Ajemian Ahnert relates her mother Ester's terrifying experiences as a young woman during this period of hatred and brutality. At age 15, Ester was separated from her family during a forced march away from her birth town of Amasia. Though she faced unspeakable horrors at the hands of many she met, and was forced into an abusive marriage against her will, she never lost her faith, quick wit, or ability to see the good in people. Eventually she escaped and emigrated to America. Ahnert's compelling account of her mother's suffering is framed by an intimate portrait of her relationship with her 98-year-old mother. Ester's inspiring stories, told lovingly by her daughter, will give you a window into the harrowing struggle of Armenians during a terrible period in human history.

"I entered literary life as a meteor, and I shall leave it like a thunderbolt." These words of Maupassant to Jose Maria de Heredia on the occasion of a memorable meeting are, in spite of their morbid solemnity, not an inexact summing up of the brief career during which, for ten years, the writer, by turns undaunted and sorrowful, with the fertility of a master hand produced poetry, novels, romances and travels, only to sink prematurely into the abyss of madness and death. . . . . In the month of April, 1880, an article appeared in the "Le Gaulois" announcing the publication of the Soirees de Medan. It was signed by a name as yet unknown: Guy de Maupassant. After a juvenile diatribe against romanticism and a passionate attack on languorous literature, the writer extolled the study of real life, and announced the publication of the new work. It was picturesque and charming. In the quiet of evening, on an island, in the Seine, beneath poplars instead of the Neapolitan cypresses dear to the friends of Boccaccio, amid the continuous murmur of the valley, and no longer to the sound of the Pyrennean streams that murmured a faint accompaniment to the tales of Marguerite's cavaliers, the master and his disciples took turns in narrating some striking or pathetic episode of the war. And the issue, in collaboration, of these tales in one volume, in which the master jostled elbows with his pupils, took on the appearance of a manifesto, the tone of a challenge, or the utterance of a creed. In fact, however, the beginnings had been much more simple, and they had confined themselves, beneath the trees of Medan, to deciding on a general title for the work. Zola had contributed the manuscript of the "Attaque du Moulin," and it was at Maupassant's house that the five young men gave in their contributions. Each one read his story, Maupassant being the last.
