She hasn't seen Jake in years but her former college friend told her he'd always be there for her and she definitely needs him now.

Only one man from her past can help FBI Special Agent Jake Evers made the biggest mistake of his life when he let Rachel slip through his fingers over two years ago. It doesn't matter that he hasn't seen her since then-if she needs him, he'll be there. When he learns that she's the target of a domestic terror cell, he'll do everything in his power to keep her safe. He's never gotten over her and won't risk losing her again now that she's reappeared in his life.

El Cid Campeador (Chronicle of the Cid), English version. "Chronicle of the Cid" is an epic narrative poem that tells the story of the legendary hero, Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar or El Cid, a warrior who fought for both Christian and Muslim rulers in medieval Spain. Written in the 12th century, the poem is a seminal work of Spanish literature, and Robert Southey's translation captures its essence beautifully. Southey's translation is a remarkable achievement. Not only did he translate the poem into English, but he also made it accessible to a wider audience. The poem's original language, Old Castilian, is difficult to understand for modern readers, and Southey's translation makes the story more approachable. The poem is divided into three parts: the first part introduces El Cid and his exploits serving the Castilian king, the second part covers his exile and his battles against the Moors, and the final part describes his triumphs and eventual death. Southey's translation captures the epic scope of the poem, with its battles, betrayals, and heroic deeds. What makes "Chronicle of the Cid" such a compelling read is its portrayal of El Cid as a complex and flawed hero. He is a man who is both violent and compassionate, loyal and opportunistic, and his story is a testament to the human condition. Southey's translation captures this complexity, and his prose brings to life the vivid characters and settings of this epic tale. Overall, "Chronicle of the Cid" is a must-read for anyone interested in historical fiction, classic literature, or just a good old-fashioned adventure story. Southey's translation is an excellent introduction to this seminal work of Spanish literature, and it offers a window into a fascinating era of European history. Don't miss out on this timeless tale of courage, loyalty, and honor.

This Work "Primary Sources for History of the Sri Lankan Tamils: A World-wide Search", the First of its kind, is a very significant one. In this work I see the Historian and the Professional Librarian within the Author Dr. M. Gunasingam a student of Prof. K. Indrapala blend with each other in a very charming way. The author has documented the resources in the various major libraries of the world and those resource centres which possess valuable data relating to the history and culture of the Sri Lankan Tamils. The material is presented in an introductory manner as a historian would do. One cannot fail to notice the specific references the author chooses to give about each of the libraries and centres. In that sense it also becomes a guide.One cannot fail to observe the sense of socio political dedication of the author to the basic theme of the book. This work reveals the depth of the author's conviction and the breadth of the areas of search. I am sure this work will receive the attention of scholars and students researching into not only the Sri Lankan Tamils but also into Sri Lanka as a whole.

A year after her husband's tragic death, all Lady Julianna Barrows wants is to be left alone and forget that most of her heart went with him when he passed. Instead, she finds herself the subject of many a matchmaking scheme and lurid offer to ease her widowhood, as well as save her fading fortune. Desperate to avoid having to remarry, she takes on a position as a tutor, only to discover the man she's helping unexpectedly stirs her heart and passion. Nash Wolverton boxed his way out of the London slums and into immense wealth, but he couldn't care less about Society's approval. Except he has his by-blow daughter's future to consider. To ensure her acceptance into Society, he'll endure anything-including procuring a tutor to transform him into a gentleman so he can secure a suitable, boring wife. Yet what he wants changes the moment he hires Julianna. She may be a lady, but she's far from tedious. Bold and compassionate, she is nothing like the women of the ton. Suddenly, she's elicited a simmering desire in him, and even a longing to love and be loved that he always thought out of his reach. Knowing what he planned to settle for can now never be enough, he vows to win her love. But as the walls she's built begin to crumble, Julianna's fears threaten to tear them apart and she alone must decide if protecting her heart trumps breaking Nash's.
Dubliners is a collection of 15 short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. The fifteen stories were meant to be a naturalistic depiction of the Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. The stories were written at the time when Irish nationalism was at its peak, and a search for a national identity and purpose was raging; at a crossroads of history and culture, Ireland was jolted by various converging ideas and influences. They center on Joyce's idea of an epiphany: a moment where a character has a special moment of self-understanding or illumination. Many of the characters in Dubliners later appear in minor roles in Joyce's novel Ulysses. The initial stories in the collection are narrated by children as protagonists, and as the stories continue, they deal with the lives and concerns of progressively older people. This is in line with Joyce's tripartite division of the collection into childhood, adolescence and maturity.
When a Belgian industrialist is diagnosed with cancer and told that he doesn't have long to live, he decides to bet his fortune on Prof. Zirkovsky's research. He convinces Zirkovsky to quit his teaching position in Brussels and set up a laboratory in Charlerois, a small town, in order to conduct experiments with monkeys. When Zirkovsky's research shows the first signs of success, animal-rights activists demand him to abandon his experiments. A series of violent attacks against the lab lead the industrialist to call his insurer, Alfred Grail, a Vietnam veteran living in Switzerland. What Alfred Grail will find in Belgium will shake his beliefs and make him change his life. EXCERPTS FROM THE BOOKFrom Chapter 3On her sixth birthday, Juliette Rooij had stopped speaking. It had happened without warning, threats, or tears. As of that day, Lana Rooij had never heard her daughter say another word.Lana had consulted doctors and done everything to encourage her daughter to speak again. Every evening, she kissed her gently to bed, wishing that life was the same as before, but every morning, Juliette's silence broke her heart."The girl misses her father," a child psychiatrist had diagnosed. Maybe he was right, but Lana Rooij had no idea who Juliette's father was, for in Lana's past, there had been many men.Juliette was a very intelligent child who absorbed knowledge with passion, but refused to answer whenever she was questioned on any subject. When Juliette made drawings, it was always the same picture. On top of the page, a sun whose rays burned the page from end to end. Under the sun, a house with a balcony.A woman and a little girl stood on the balcony. Both had long blond hair and wore skirts. On some drawings, Juliette drew the girl's eyes with such intensity that her pencil pierced the paper. On others, it was the woman's eyes. The woman and the girl never smiled.Lana Rooij had placed one of Juliette's drawings beside the bathroom mirror. Day after day, she stared at the woman and the girl on the balcony, wondering why they didn't move, why they didn't speak, what they were waiting for. From Chapter 5"Vietnam will make a man out of you," his father had said to Alfred Grail on Alfred's seventeenth birthday.His reaction had shocked his parents. "I'm not going to Vietnam. I want to be an artist.""An artist," his father had replied, "what a silly fantasy.""An artist," his mother had reacted, "my poor child will starve."Months later, Alfred had unexpectedly changed his mind, but he had never told his parents why, he had never told anybody. The reason had been a sixteen-year-old girl named Marylou Rose Parker.Marylou was not beautiful, she was not even pretty, but she knew how to listen.One summer afternoon, when Alfred was alone fishing in the nearby river, a girl had walked to him and stood still at his side. She was Marylou Rose Parker."Why do you like fishing?" she had asked."Because I like to look at the water," Alfred had answered."Do you catch a lot of fish?""Two or three each afternoon, but I throw them back into the river."The girl had gone home two hours later, but she had returned the following day."What do you do when you're not fishing?""I read comics.""And when you are not reading?""I draw."Marylou had been the first person to see Alfred's drawings. He had feared what she would say, for she was a girl, and girls could not draw. She had looked at the sheets of paper covered with lines and shadows, images distilled from Alfred's dreams.She had said nothing, but she had nodded, as though she understood. It was only then that Alfred had begun to talk, abruptly at the beginning, enthusiastically as he went on, whispering as the night approached. Marylou Rose Parker had listened to him all the way.As of that moment, the two had become inseparable.
