Bøker av Clarke

In this novel, Terence Clarke dramatically intermingles the story of Nobel-Prize-winning poet Pablo Neruda's escape from Chile in 1949 with events from Neruda's life, both before and after the Communist poet crossed the Andes to reach safety in Argentina. Clarke gives full credit to the men and animals who helped turn a dilettante into a mountain man. The chapters about Neruda's wife, Delia, twenty years his senior, sympathetically trace a woman who never loses faith that her man will return to her.

Hiding from Christmas (Off the Grid Christmas Book 1)He's been hiding from the world since he lost his family in a brutal attack.She's just hiding from her family for the holidays.What happens when they find each other?ElleI couldn't face the piteous glances of my family over the holidays after my fiancé Austin unceremoniously dumped me. I was too tame, too awkward, too vanilla, too risk averse. Glad he took five years to figure that out.I'm devastated. Humiliated. And angry. I told Mom I couldn't bear the thought of coming home for the holidays. I'd rather be alone. Anything was better than their sympathy, but my own company didn't promise to be any better. That's why I jumped at the chance to visit my eccentric aunt Muriel in a remote village on the West coast of Mexico.JoeNo one would call my solitary life here uncomplicated, but on the surface it's simple enough. After seven years in exile, I'm used to my routine and my solitude, though my grief walks beside me like a silent companion. As much as I might like to go back to my old life, I could never put the people I trust, love and depend upon at risk.Never again.I'm regularly reminded that the cost would be too high. Especially this time of year when a cruel gift arrives from my nemesis. My sixth Christmas alone in Mexico. The anniversary of the date I lost everything.I'm expecting the package, right on schedule. But I'm not expecting the clumsy, beautiful, bewildering blonde that crashes into my world and turns it inside out.

The Kind Bee Just Bee Cause describes the importance of Kindness in life, and how one small act of kindness can eventually change the world. Honeybees are our inspiration because they pollinate the world with their kindness, helping fertilize plants, flowers, trees, and making honey. Without honeybees, our world would be a dark place. We, like bees, need to pollinate the world with kindness to make sure our world is full of light. Help us pollinate the world with kindness.
