It was late winter in Berlin, 1931, and Erich knew he had to leave the Brownshirts. More and more they fought with other political parties and the worst happened when Erich was involved in a bar brawl where two German communists were killed. His fellow Brownshirts were proud of him, but he knew he had to get out and find peace or stay on the path to becoming a monster. He chose not to be a monster. By May of that year, he met Nicholas and fell in love. His job at the Reichstag office went well until rumors about the growing power of the Brownshirts came to pass and they gained a majority in the elections of 1932. The old laws against queers were enforced and new laws were enacted that made everyone suspect. Nikki and Erich had to flee or face the prospect of life in a concentration camp, so they started a new life in Canada. In 1935 Nikki returned to Berlin to help his mother with his ailing father. Shortly thereafter his mother, angry with him for his lifestyle and his desire to go back to Erich, turned him over to the SS. Erich would not let the man he loved languish in a concentration camp. He made a plan to save Nikki, but for the plan to succeed Erich had to become the monster that he ran from as a Brownshirt; he had to become a NAZI.

In a world plagued by the persistent echoes of violence and conflict, this profound exploration into the philosophy of Peace and pacifism emerges as a timely source of hope and transformation. In this book, the author reflects on the disheartening reality that, despite the twenty-first century's advancements, humanity continues to cling to destructive patterns. This book is a rallying cry for the resilience of the human spirit, advocating for a paradigm shift towards Peace, justice, and dialogue. It weaves together historical reflections, philosophical insights, and real-world examples to unravel the essence of pacifism - a belief that transcends the mere absence of war and envisions a world healed and intact. Through a collection of essays, quotes, speeches, and more, the author not only acknowledges the complexities of our world but also recognizes the challenges inherent in the pursuit of Peace. It is also acknowledged that there can be no external Peace if there is a lack of inner Peace within the individual. As you delve into these pages, you'll encounter the diverse tapestry of pacifist thought, from ancient philosophers to modern visionaries. The book serves as a manual for Peace, inviting introspection, dialogue, and action. It inspires a collective awakening to our potential as architects of Peace, urging us to dismantle structures perpetuating violence and fostering a shift in individual and collective consciousness. This work isn't just a dream; it's an invitation to turn dreams into reality. In a world yearning for Healing and Peace, this book extends a hand, urging us to embark on a shared journey towards a future where Peace isn't just a distant dream but a lived reality.

Three friends go to France and become involved in a deadly game of espionage and theft of Russian state secrets. A spy steals a Russian chip capable of hacking any military hardware on the planet. To get it to his handler, he must pass it on to a mule who will carry it out of Europe. The spy pulls his hoodie over his head and searches for a mule. He may have found a candidate in Strasbourg, France at the Christmas market. The mule is an older woman, seventy perhaps, and she’s looking at a Christmas thong. Jan holds up a thong with tiny Santa Clauses all around the edges. To get a better look, she sets her tablet down and holds the thong against her side. She looks at her friends for their support. Aaron, a stout forty-something, laughs, and Mary, a religious fanatic who thinks everyone is a sinner and has a collection of bibles that she carries with her, shakes her head and utters the word, “sin.” Jan, defiantly, buys two thongs; one with dancing Santa’s on it and another with a Rudolph’s face over the crotch. She presses a tiny button and Rudolph’s nose lights up. Just then, a hooded man runs up to her, grabs her tablet from atop the thongs and runs off! Jan’s shocked and throws the Santa thong at him. Aaron runs after the crook and yells for him to stop. Olivia, Aaron’s friend from a nearby village, calls the police from her phone and yells at Aaron to stop. She insists it’s too dangerous for him to race after a thief. A few blocks away, Aaron corners the crook in an alley. The hooded man walks out from behind a dumpster with the tablet in hand and holds it up. Aaron knows that he was wrong to chase after the crook, but to go into a dark alley was far too dangerous, even with his skills. The man throws the tablet onto a pile of trash and then runs off. Aaron gets the tablet and returns it to Jan who is ecstatic to have it back, but the tablet case has been opened. Aaron snaps in back into place and they continue their European journey. The next day, the threesome find themselves neck deep in a case of international espionage and are on the run from Russians, Americans, and other thugs who want Jan’s tablet. The spy must do all he can to save Jan and her friends, get the chip to his people, and evade the killers looking for them or lose everything.

Gerard Hughes's popularity lies in the fact that he always writes directly for the individual struggling with issues of faith and life and gets right to the heart of spiritual needs and concerns. His best-seller GOD OF SURPRISES published nearly 20 years ago has sold nearly a quarter of a million copies. GOD IN ALL THINGS is a follow up to that book written for a different world and a different spiritual climate. This is a guidebook for the inner journey. It is about recognising God in the ordinary, in the joy and sadness of things, about knowing that God cannot be separated from whatever we experience. It is written for people on the fringes of Christianity, or those who are disillusioned with church structures and dogmatic theology. Hughes has written this book because he is concerned at the split between religion and life, as if religion was something apart and detached from the rest of God's creation. Apart from being a brilliant spiritual guide this book is a call to a faith in terminal decline to enlarge its concept of God and break out of the straitjacket of pious religion.

In 1934, Veza Taubner and Elias Canetti were married in Vienna. Elias describes the arrangement to his brother Georges as a “functional” marriage. Meanwhile, an intense intellectual love affair develops between Veza and Georges, a young doctor suffering fromtuberculosis. Four years later, Veza and Elias flee Nazi-ruled Vienna to London, where they lead an impoverished and extremely complicated marital life in exile. Spanning the major part of Elias’s struggle for literary recognition, from 1933, before the publication of his novel, Auto-da-Fé, to 1959, when he finished his monumental Crowds and Power, the Canetti letters provide an intimate look at these formative years through the prism of a veritable love triangle: the newly married Elias has a string of lovers; his wife, Veza, is hopelessly in love with an idealized image of his youngest brother, Georges; and Georges is drawn to good looking men as well as to his motherly sister-in-law. Independently and often secretly, the couple communicates with Georges, who lives in Paris: Veza tells of Elias’s amorous escapades and bouts of madness, Elias complains about Veza’s poor nerves and depression. Each of them worries about Georges’s health–if she could, Veza would kiss away the germs. Georges is an infrequent correspondent, but he diligently stores away the letters from his brother and sister-in-law. In 2003, long after his death, they were accidentally discovered in a Paris basement and comprise not only a moving and insightful document, but real literature.

Signed on June 28, 1919 between Germany and the principal Allied powers, the Treaty of Versailles formally ended World War I. Problematic from the very beginning, even its contemporaries saw the treaty as a mediocre compromise, creating a precarious order in Europe and abroad and destined to fall short of ensuring lasting peace. At the time, observers read the treaty through competing lenses: a desire for peace after five years of disastrous war, demands for vengeance against Germany, the uncertain future of colonialism, and, most alarmingly, the emerging threat of Bolshevism. A century after its signing, we can look back at how those developments evolved through the twentieth century, evaluating the treaty and its consequences with unprecedented depth of perspective. The author of several award-winning books, Michael S. Neiberg provides a lucid and authoritative account of the Treaty of Versailles, explaining the enormous challenges facing those who tried to put the world back together after the global destruction of the World War I. Rather than assessing winners and losers, this compelling book analyzes the many subtle factors that influenced the treaty and the dominant, at times ambiguous role of the "Big Four" leaders?Woodrow Wilson of the United States, David Lloyd George of Great Britain, Vittorio Emanuele Orlando of Italy, and Georges Clémenceau of France. The Treaty of Versailles was not solely responsible for the catastrophic war that crippled Europe and the world just two decades later, but it played a critical role. As Neiberg reminds us, to understand decolonization, World War II, the Cold War, and even the complex world we inhabit today, there is no better place to begin than with World War I and the treaty that tried, and perhaps failed, to end it.

A landmark work of narrative history, Paris 1919 is the first full-scale treatment of the Peace Conference in more than twenty-five years. It offers a scintillating view of those dramatic and fateful days when much of the modern world was sketched out, when countries were created—Iraq, Yugoslavia, Israel—whose troubles haunt us still. Winner of the Samuel Johnson Prize • Winner of the PEN Hessell Tiltman Prize • Winner of the Duff Cooper Prize Between January and July 1919, after “the war to end all wars,” men and women from around the world converged on Paris to shape the peace. Center stage, for the first time in history, was an American president, Woodrow Wilson, who with his Fourteen Points seemed to promise to so many people the fulfillment of their dreams. Stern, intransigent, impatient when it came to security concerns and wildly idealistic in his dream of a League of Nations that would resolve all future conflict peacefully, Wilson is only one of the larger-than-life characters who fill the pages of this extraordinary book. David Lloyd George, the gregarious and wily British prime minister, brought Winston Churchill and John Maynard Keynes. Lawrence of Arabia joined the Arab delegation. Ho Chi Minh, a kitchen assistant at the Ritz, submitted a petition for an independent Vietnam. For six months, Paris was effectively the center of the world as the peacemakers carved up bankrupt empires and created new countries. This book brings to life the personalities, ideals, and prejudices of the men who shaped the settlement. They pushed Russia to the sidelines, alienated China, and dismissed the Arabs. They struggled with the problems of Kosovo, of the Kurds, and of a homeland for the Jews. The peacemakers, so it has been said, failed dismally; above all they failed to prevent another war. Margaret MacMillan argues that they have unfairly been made the scapegoats for the mistakes of those who came later. She refutes received ideas about the path from Versailles to World War II and debunks the widely accepted notion that reparations imposed on the Germans were in large part responsible for the Second World War. Praise for Paris 1919 “It’s easy to get into a war, but ending it is a more arduous matter. It was never more so than in 1919, at the Paris Conference. . . . This is an enthralling book: detailed, fair, unfailingly lively. Professor MacMillan has that essential quality of the historian, a narrative gift.” —Allan Massie, The Daily Telegraph (London)
