Silver Nitrate Bok
<p><b>From the <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>The Daughter of Doctor Moreau</i> and <i>Mexican Gothic</i> comes a fabulous meld of Mexican horror movies and Nazi occultism: a dark thriller about a curse that haunts a legendary lost film - and awakens one woman's hidden powers. </b><br/><br/>Montserrat has always been overlooked. She's a talented sound editor, but she's left out of the boys' club running the film industry in '90s Mexico City. And she's all-but-invisible to her best friend Tristan, a charming if faded soap opera star, even though she's been in love with him since childhood.<br/><br/>Then Tristan discovers his new neighbour is the cult horror director Abel Urueta, and the legendary <i>auteur </i>claims he has a way to change their lives - even if his tales of a Nazi occultist imbuing magic into highly volatile silver nitrate stock sounds like sheer fantasy. The magic film was never finished, which is why, Urueta swears, his career vanished overnight. He is cursed.<br/>Now the director wants Montserrat and Tristan to help him shoot the missing scene and lift the curse . . . but Montserrat soon notices a dark presence following her, and Tristan begins seeing the ghost of his ex-girlfriend . . .<br/>As they work together to unravel the mystery of the film and the obscure occultist who once roamed their city, Montserrat and Tristan might find out that sorcerers and magic are not only the stuff of movies . . .</p>

Kidnapping Of Edgardo Mortara Fti Bok
<p>Now filmed by Steven Spielberg, starring Mark Rylance as the Pope. The extraordinary story of how the Vatican's imprisonment of a six-year-old Jewish boy helped to bring about the collapse of the popes' worldly power in Italy. Bologna: nightfall, June 1858.</p><p>A knock sounds at the door of the Jewish merchant Momolo Mortara. Two officers of the Inquisition burst inside and seize Mortara's six-year-old son, Edgardo. As the boy is wrenched from his father's arms, his mother collapses.</p><p>The reason for his abduction: the boy had been secretly `baptized' by a family servant. According to papal law, the child is therefore a Catholic who can be taken from his family and delivered to a special monastery where his conversion will be completed. With this terrifying scene, prize-winning historian David I.</p><p>Kertzer begins the true story of how one boy's kidnapping became a pivotal event in the collapse of the Vatican as a secular power. The book evokes the anguish of a modest merchant's family, the rhythms of daily life in a Jewish ghetto, and also explores, through the revolutionary campaigns of Mazzini and Garibaldi and outside leaders like Napoleon III, the emergence of Italy as a modern national state. Moving and informative, The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara reads as both a thriller and an authoritative account of a moment that changed Europe forever.</p>
