    Billy Graham shares God's gentle, reassuring promise of spiritual calm - of authentic personal peace - amid a personal life wracked with too much stress, too many burdens, too great a heartache. In Peace with God, Billy Graham asks God to help this book "find its way into the hands and hearts of a lost, confused, and searching world...men, women, and young people everywhere [who] thirst for peace with God." In spite of a life drenched with responsibilities and rewards, are you thirsting? Searching for some nameless thing that is more important than anything in life? You are not alone. All mankind is seeking the answer to the confusion, the moral sickness, the spiritual emptiness that oppresses the world. All humanity is crying out for guidance, for comfort...for peace. Reverend Graham shares God's gentle, reassuring promise of spiritual calm - of authentic personal peace - amid a personal life wracked with too much stress, too many burdens, too great a heartache. "I know men who would write a check for a million dollars if they could find peace," writes Reverend Graham. "Millions are searching for it. But we Christians have found it! It is ours now and forever. We have found the secret of life! When your spouse dies or your children get sick or you lose your job, you can have a peace that you don't understand. You may have tears at a graveside, but you can have an abiding peace, a quietness. "God's peace can be in your heart - right now. Whatever the circumstances, whatever the call, whatever the duty, whatever the price, whatever the sacrifice - his strength will be your strength in your hour of need. "It's all yours, and it's free. You don't have to work for it. Do not put it off." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tommy Cresswell. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/tnwd/000689/bk_tnwd_000689_sample.mp3.

    El corazón helado
    The novel begins in a cemetery in a small town called Torrelodones on the outskirts of Madrid. Alvaro Carrion Gonzalez is attending the funeral of his father, a man of tremendous wealth and influence in Madrid whose power dates back to the years of Franco's dictatorship. As the family stand by the graveside, Alvaro notices a stranger, a young and attractive woman, who seems inordinately interested in the family. Alvaro wonders what part this woman played in his father's life and his questions deepen when the family inherits an enormous amount of money that is a surprise even to them. In his father's study Alvaro discovers an old folder with letters sent to his father in Russia between 1941 and 1943, faded photos of people he never met, and a locked grey metal box. The woman is Raquel Fernandez Perea, the daughter of Spaniards who fled Spain during the Civil War and who spent most of her childhood in France before returning to Spain during the 1970s. One episode in her past has had a particularly marked effect - the only time she ever saw her grandfather cry. When fate brings Raquel and Alvaro together, they feel an overwhelming attraction, but discover just how deeply these old family stories will affect their own lives. The Frozen Heart is a passionate and utterly compelling novel that encapsulates the complexities of a war that split families apart, father against sons, brothers against brothers, wives against husbands. It describes the political and personal fall-out in a country that consumed itself in a thumping good read filled with love, deceit, revenge and betrayal.

    Gerda Taro, Photojournalist
    Paris in the summer of 1937. A giant funeral processionwends its way from the city center eastwardtoward the Père-Lachaise Cemetery, accompaniedby the sounds of Chopin's funeralmarch. The photojournalist Gerda Taro had beenkilled in the Spanish Civil War a few days earlier.Thousands come to pay their last respects to theémigrée from Hitler's Germany. The poet LouisAragon speaks at the graveside, young girls holdup a large portrait of the deceased. Why did theFrench Communist Party honor a foreigner - onewho was not even a member of the Party - witha "first-class" burial?Ernest Hemingway is said to have found GerdaTaro while searching for "better Germans",the term he used to describe Germans fightingon the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War.Taro is today considered one of the path-breakingpioneers of photography. She captured someof the most dramatic and widely published imagesof the Spanish Civil War and was the firstfemale photographer to shoot images in themidst of battle. Her willingness to work close tothe fighting set new standards for war photographyand ultimately cost her her life. Taro standsalongside early twentieth century war photographerslike Robert Capa and David "Chim" Seymour.Her death, the first fatality during war coverage,garnered worldwide attention. She hadbroken new ground, as a woman and as a photographer.Despite this, Gerda Taro has largely fallen intooblivion, especially in comparison to her colleagueand partner Robert Capa. Whether genderand religion played a role in this would requirea separate investigation. In any case, in herstudy of women resisting fascism, Ingrid Stroblreaches the conclusion that a combination suchas woman-Communist-Jew represented a threefoldstigma, and would almost guarantee Taro'sexclusion from official history, both in the Eastand the West.It has been almost twenty years since the firstbiography of Gerda Taro, written by Irme Schaber,led to Taro's rediscovery as a photographer.Since that time, the discovery of the "MexicanSuitcase", containing more than 800 of her photos,has made new research on Taro possible.In this new, fully revised biography, Irme Schaberpresents groundbreaking insights regardingcameras, copyrights and the circumstances surroundingTaro's death.
