Skarakannibalens Dotter Bok
<p>Hennes pappa är gåtfull, full av både kärlek och förstörelse. Han blir både hennes frälsare och hennes värsta mardröm. Det här är en berättelse om överlevnad och kärlek, om en dotter och hennes pappa. Genom det mörka kaoset av ett liv präglat av våld och smärta kämpar hon för att finna sitt eget ljus. Men kärleken till pappan är ofrånkomlig, även om den är komplicerad och smärtsam. Hon bär på ett hopp om förändring och desperat längtan efter en pappa som hon kan älska utan rädsla. Denna gripande memoar fångar ögonblicken av rädsla, glädje och förlåtelse som formade deras relation. Det är en historia om att hitta styrkan att bryta mönster och omvandla smärta till läkning. En djupt personlig berättelse om att älska, förlåta och äntligen hitta frid. </p><p></p><p><b>Jamie-lee är en ung kvinna som efter ett liv präglat av totalt mörker vill vända sina tragiska livserfarenheter till någonting positivt. Hon vill här berätta om att det är fullt möjligt att förändra sitt liv till det bättre, oavsett tidigare förutsättningar. Hon drömmer om att föreläsa kring ämnet och även att skriva fler böcker i syfte att inspirera och lära.</b></p><p></p><p></p>

Diamanten I Kappsäcken - Min Resa Till Afrika Bok
Trumvirveln väcker Agneta flera gånger på natten, hon undrar var hon är. Den obekväma sängen, mörkret och värmen påminner henne om att hon är i det inre av Zaïre.<br/><br/>Beslutet som förändrade livet togs under en nattlig bussfärd. Resan, i Svenska baptistsamfundets tjänst, sker med en kappsäck och en försvunnen diamant. I arbetet att bidra till bättre hälsa för människor i en isolerad miljö, möter hon glädje, dramatik och problem. Periodvis lever Agneta ensam vit i området och får upptäcka effekter av ndoki. En kontroversiell arbetsfördelning förändrar situationen.<br/><br/>Agnetas kompetens och språk testas ständigt: Vilken är din hemlighet? Vad är det för ndoki du har som skyddar dig? Hennes kulturförståelse testas då hon oväntat hotas med machete, liksom i ett samtal om celibatet med en katolsk präst. Genom boken går en önskan om att upptäcka en försvunnen diamant, som visar sig i fasetter och leder henne vidare.<br/><br/>En oväntad spelpjäs finns plötsligt på spelplanen för Den försvunna diamanten. Agnetas resa förändras, men lojaliteten med en isolerad befolkning lever vidare.

The Extraordinary Life Of An Ordinary Man Bok
<p><b>As seen in <i>The Last Movie Stars </i>documentary - t</b><b>he raw, candid, unvarnished memoir of an icon. The greatest movie star of the past 75 years covers everything: his traumatic childhood, his career, his drinking, his thoughts on Marlon Brando, James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor, his greatest roles, acting, his intimate life with Joanne Woodward, his innermost fears and passions and joys. With thoughts/comments throughout from Joanne Woodward, Tom Cruise and many others.</b><br/><br/>In 1986, Paul Newman and his closest friend, screenwriter Stewart Stern, began an extraordinary project. Stuart was to compile an oral history, to have Newman's family and friends and those who worked closely with him, talk about the actor's life. And then Newman would work with Stewart and give his side of the story. The only stipulation was that anyone who spoke on the record had to be completely honest. That same stipulation applied to Newman himself. The project lasted five years.<br/><br/>The result is an extraordinary memoir, culled from thousands of pages of transcripts. The book is insightful, revealing, surprising. Newman's voice is powerful, sometimes funny, sometimes painful, always meeting that high standard of searing honesty. The additional voices - from childhood friends and Navy buddies, from family members and film and theater collaborators such as Tom Cruise, George Roy Hill, Martin Ritt, and John Huston - that run throughout add richness and color and context to the story Newman is telling.<br/><br/>Newman's often traumatic childhood is brilliantly detailed. He talks about his teenage insecurities, his early failures with women, his rise to stardom, his early rivals (Brando and Dean), his first marriage, his drinking, his philanthropy, the death of his son Scott, his strong desire for his daughters to know and understand the truth about their father. Perhaps the most moving material in the book centers around his relationship with Joanne Woodward - their love for each other, his dependence on her, the way she shaped him intellectually, emotionally and sexually.<br/><br/>THE EXTRAORDINARY LIFE OF AN ORDINARY MAN is revelatory and introspective, personal and analytical, loving and tender in some places, always complex and profound.<br/><br/><b>Praise for Paul Newman</b><br/>'One of the greatest screen actors of all time and a beautiful man.' <b>Daniel Craig</b><br/><br/>'He set the bar too high for the rest of us. Not just actors, but all of us.' <b>George Clooney</b><br/><br/>''He was my hero.' <b>Julia Roberts</b><br/><br/>'Paul was an American Icon.' <b>President Bill Clinton</b><br/><br/>'The ultimate cool guy, who men wanted to be like and women adored. He was an American icon, a brilliant actor, a Renaissance man and a generous but modest philanthropist ... Newman entertained millions in some of Hollywood's most memorable roles ever, and brightened the lives of amny more, especially seriously ill children, through his charitable works.' <b>Arnold Schwarzenegger</b><br/><br/>'Sometimes God makes perfect people and Paul Newman was one of them.' <b>Sally Field</b><br/><br/>'One of the very finest screen actors of our time. Newman spanned the gap between the golden days of Hollywood, the 40s and 50s with actors like Cary Grant and James Stewart and Clark Gable, and the present lot represented by Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise' <b>Sir Michael Parkinson</b><br/><br/>'Newman was a fine driver, who was famous in Hollywood for doing his own stunt driving as often as not.' <b>Ron Dennis, Formula 1's McLaren Chief</b><br/><br/>'To say he was an extraordinary man would be an understatement. he saw himself as a working actor, not a movie star, and insisted that everyone else did the same. There was no ego, no entourage, no hangers on. Only Paul, his script and his incredible spirit. One can say this about very few people, but he was a truly great man. It seems to me to be one of the great 20th-century lives: he was famously generous, with his extraordinary and unstinting work for his charities, he was a shining example of how to use global fame for the greater good, and most of all he was one of the great movie actors of this or any other age. [Directing Newman] was the highlight of my professional life.' <b>Sam Mendes</b></p>

Klaras Gåta Bok
I drygt 30 år låg Klara i ett mörklagt rum på en gotländsk bondgård. Hon hade själv valt att isolera sig som ett alternativ till självmord. I tonåren ville hon utbilda sig men fick inte. Hon hade en fästman men han dög inte. Istället blev hon bortgift med Einar, den man som föräldrarna valt ut. Tanken var att han, som svärson, skulle överta gården. Författaren är Klaras och Einars son. I boken berättar han om sin uppväxt på gården och försöker förstå de omständigheter som formade Klaras liv. Klaras gåta handlar också om 1900-talets historia. Det var en omvälvande tid då det traditionella gotländska bondesamhället gick under och ersattes av ett turistanpassat Sommarland. Carl Johan Gardell är FD i historia vid Uppsala universitet, kulturjournalist, författare och entreprenör. Som fastighetsägare på Gotland 1972-92 ägnade han sig bland annat åt att renovera gamla byggnader. De senaste decennierna har han medverkat flitigt på många kultursidor, bland annat i Svenska Dagbladet och Upsala Nya Tidning.
