Statt auftragsgemäß die eheliche Treue einer Dame aus Bruxelles guter Gesellschaft zu überwachen, ist Kommissar a.D. Lijnen im "Jardin du Soir" einem Verbrechen auf der Spur, dessen verschlungenes Astwerk sich täglich mehrt. Auf den ersten Blick teilen die Bewohner des renommierten Seniorenheims nur das Schicksal des Alterns. Robert Dubois und Emilie Duprez, ein ungleiches Paar in vieler Hinsicht, erlebt die freudlosen Aspekte des Vergessens auch versöhnlich. Doch in der geschlossenen Abteilung des "Jardin" geschehen Dinge, die der Institution unwürdig sind. Deren Aufklärung prallt auf das Dickicht der Demenz. Umso bedeutender wird für denjenigen, der sie verstehen möchte, der Einfluss eigener Inhalte. Der ungewöhnliche Kriminalroman wirft nicht nur ein kritisches Licht auf die Betreuung des alten Menschen und die pharmazeutische Forschung. Esprit bereichert die Handlung. Entsprechend sorgfältig sind die Charaktere gezeichnet, und die psychologischen Mechanismen, denen sie unterworfen sind. So tritt in der Figur des Kommissars die Bedeutung der Projektion zutage. Sie wird zum primum movens einer Geschichte, die sich nicht nur äußerlich abspielt, sondern zum Psychothriller im eigentlichen Sinn wird. Und von Lin Tse Yung, einem exotischen Insassen des "Jardin", erfahren wir in einer kaum verschleierten Hommage an C.G.Jung, was Taoismus und Alchimie mit der analytischen Psychologie verbindet. Wie immer in Jorge di Raffi's Romanen überlappen Traum und fassbare Realität. Was das Unbewusste der Akteure nachts ausdrückt, ergänzt, was sie tagsüber erleben. Die Demenz lässt Traum und Realität kaum noch unterscheiden. Was von "Amnesia" haften bleibt, hängt letztlich vom Leser ab. Ein Krimi, der sich bloß konsumieren lässt, ist es keinesfalls.

Almost lost over the centuries, the Book of Jubilees was retrieved from the Ethiopic language, translated into English by R. H. Charles, and was recently found among the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Book of Jubilees is also called the Little Genesis, Book of Divisions, and the Apocalypse of Moses. It repeats the events of Genesis and Exodus from Creation to the Exodus of the Children of Israel from Egypt. It recounts the events in sets of jubilees (sets of 49 years) and gives additional details such as the fall of the angels, and the creation and destruction of the Nephilim. It also mentions the three classes of pre-flood Nephilim. It details the fact that one-tenth of their disembodied spirits would remain on earth as demons to tempt people and nine-tenths would be chained until the Tribulation Period. Learn what secrets this Dead Sea Scroll holds. Compare the mysterious Qumran calendar with that of the Bible to learn more about biblical prophecies. The commentary is written from a fundamentalist Christian perspective. Brought to you by Biblefacts Ministries, biblefacts.org

'Perfection's Handiwork' GHAZALS OF AMIR KHUSRAU Translation & Introduction Paul Smith Amir Khusrau (1253-1324), the 'Parrot of India' was born at Patigali near the Ganges in India. At the age of thirty-six he was poet-laureate, serving many sultans. He was not only fluent in Persian, in which he composed the majority of his 92 books, but also in Arabic, Hindi and Sanskrit. He composed ten long masnavis, five Divans of ghazals and other poems and many prose works. He was a Master musician and invented the sitar. The Perfect Master Nizam ud-din took him as his disciple and eventually he became God-realized. He rebelled against narrow spirituality and helped redefine the true Sufi way. He was a profound influence on Hafiz and is seen as the link between Sadi and Hafiz in updating the form and content of the ghazal and eroticising it. This is the largest selection of his ghazals in English. Introduction is on his Life & Times & Poetry and the Form & History of the Ghazal and on Sufism & Poetry. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept and the meaning of these beautiful, enlightened poems. Large Format Paperback 7" x 10" 209 pages COMMENTS ON PAUL SMITH'S TRANSLATION OF HAFIZ'S 'DIVAN'."It is not a joke... the English version of ALL the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance. I am astonished." Dr. Mir Mohammad Taghavi (Dr. of Literature) Tehran."Superb translations. 99% Hafiz 1% Paul Smith." Ali Akbar Shapurzman, translator of works into Persian and knower of Hafiz's Divan off by heart."Smith has probably put together the greatest collection of literary facts and history concerning Hafiz."

You may not know now but as you read on you will find out EXACTLY just how quickly you can be in-tune with how your mind really works! * * *LIMITED TIME OFFER! (Regular $11.99) * * * Dear Reader, Have you always wondered what is ON YOUR MIND and how it can help you with your daily lives? THE FACT IS: MINDSET is a simple idea that makes all the difference. Learning how to apply GROWTH MINDSET into your life We all want to be productive and motivated in our business, education, and sports; and even personal life. Mindset (A Preview) * The Growth & Fixed Mindset - Instead of using the words 'good' and 'poor', psychologists have favored the labels 'growth' & 'fixed' which better describe the differences between the two mindsets. The growth mindset, as you might expect, helps you grow by enabling you to face challenges, take risks, accept personal responsibility & change, deal with criticism and perhaps most importantly, work hard. By contrast the 'fixed' mindset only allows you to stay as you are, by undermining your confidence and limiting your willingness to try new things and take risks. * The Basis of the Growth & Fixed Mindset - All too many self-help guides of various flavors and varieties feel that it is simply enough to state what style of thinking and outlook is good for you, with no path or map on how to make a transition. This guide vows not to make this mistake and for good reason; changing a fixed mindset towards a growth mindset is easily achievable if you follow several simple rules. This chapter will explore the key ideas you need to understand in order to start developing a growth mindset. * How to Enter the Growth Mindset? - There are numerous ways to build a growth mindset. The following methods other people have found useful, but feel free to create your own, as long as they work for you. * Keeping on Track - In medicine one of the largest problems doctors face is that people stop taking their medication too early. Antibiotics or other drugs are prescribed to a patient to treat an illness and when initially taken these cause the patient to improve. However, due to the fact that they are feeling better, the patient then stops taking the medication before they are ready, causing their illness to grow again once more.
