The Windmill - Many Shallows: Book 2 (Paperback): Dominique Cheminais The Windmill - Many Shallows: Book 2 (Paperback)
Dominique Cheminais
R240 R48 Discovery Miles 480 Save R192 (80%) In Stock

The second book of the Many Shallows series.

Milena, head strong yet sickly, spends her days confined to her bed. Her chronic illness has always prevented any chance of her marrying until, much to her dismay, a suitor finally takes interest. A prisoner in a pink room, it seems that Milena’s fate will be dictated by her family’s expectations. Or does an alternate future lie with Opal, a young maid from a mysterious world?

Many Shallows reimagines the lives and afterlives of Franz Kafka’s three great loves: Felice, Milena, and Dora. Rather than side notes in the famous writer’s life or vehicles for his desire, these women are reincarnated as the protagonists of their own surreal, macabre worlds.

Milena is the protagonist in The Windmill, the second book in the Many Shallows series. The Windmill explores the complex themes of body dysmorphia, sexuality and tradition.

In a moment of weakness, lawyer Ian Brand sends out a tweet; it changes his life irrevocably. Thuli Khumalo, Fallist leader on a campus that stinks of petrol and teargas, must choose between betraying her father and forsaking her principles. Snaar Windvogel, once the little violin girl of Matjiesfontein, is now in transition under the knife of Piekenier Leqluerck, plastic surgeon and fossa impresario.

These colourful characters populate a carnivalesque landscape where the only certainty is that the Mother City’s mysterious crossbow killer will strike again . . . while Twitter gangs spread suspicion, truck drivers are attacked on national roads, and Number One meets with gang leaders – all under the watchful eye of the Institute for Encouragement in a nameless city in China.

An astonishing novel documenting the turbulent time in which we live, where issues such as privacy and identity, fake news and fact, and race and ethnicity inflame passions.

Lien is die oudste kind in ’n disfunksionele huishouding, waar die status van die gesin van welgesteld tot armblankes verander het weens die misbruik van trustfondse deur haar prokureurspa, nou ’n gevangene, en haar ma weens haar onvermoë om die situasie te verwerk, ’n alkoholis word. Al wat oorbly van die glans van ’n vroeë lewe is ’n woordlose video met grepe uit gelukkige tye saam. Die besorgheid van ’n buurtannie help in die donkerste ure van die gesin, terwyl dit nodig word vir Lien om uit te spring om brood op die tafel te sit.

Vir haar en haar jonger broer, Braam, oor wie sy besorg is, is daar aanpassingsprobleme by die nuwe skool, maar deur veral twee vriende, Wouter en Mimi, elk met hulle eie verwondheid, herwin Lien vir haar ’n eie plek. Sy doen naskool loswerkies vir ’n inkomste, veral om die aand kos op die tafel te kry en te spaar vir wanneer sy eendag oorsee kan gaan. Die behoeftes van die gesin kan egter nie alleen deur die wisselvallige inkomste aangespreek word nie.

Terwyl haar ma se alkoholisme tot tragiese dieptes verval, begin sy in ’n vermomming op ’n straathoek bedel, waar sy randkarakters soos Roos en Tibbey leer ken en sy geleidelik hulle vertroue en vriendskap wen. Ondanks uitdagende omstandighede slaag sy daarin om ’n verantwoordelikheidsin te kweek wat hulle posisie as gesin ook geleidelik positief beinvloed. Die wyse waarop sy op haar gesins- en persoonlike uitdagings reageer, help haar om te groei, haar roeping te vind en vrede te maak met haar verlede.

Vanaf die aangrypende openingstoneel word die aandag geboei met stilistiese vernuf, oortuigende karakterisering en geloofwaardige ruimte-beelding. Die skrywer het ’n oorspronklike aanslag wat gereflekteer word in die oorspronklike taalgebruik en skerp, vermaaklike dialoog. Respek vir die woord staan sentraal in hierdie manuskrip.

Die gang van gebeure word so gestruktureer dat die leser meegevoer word en dit moeilik vind om die manuskrip neer te sit. Die narratief word effektief afgewissel met beskrywings van klanklose ou video-grepe. ’n Uitgebreide verwysingsraamwerk van musiek en ander motiewe word deurgaans gehandhaaf en uitgebou – so word die verhaal effektief gelaai met sekondêre betekenislae.

Hierdie verhaal spreek ook van ’n maatskaplike gewete wat dit vierkantig plaas binne die konteks van ons sosio-politieke landskap. Dit is ’n verhaal wat die leser subtiel uitdaag om verantwoordelikheid te neem vir sy eie geluk en om die goeie in mense en situasies raak te sien, wat werklik ’n vars briesie is.

Gwyn Jones is perfectly happy with her life in Graves Glen. She's formed a powerful new coven with her family; she's running a successful witchcraft shop, Something Wicked; and she's mentoring some of the younger witches in town. As Halloween approaches, there's only one problem - Llewellyn 'Wells' Penhallow. Wells has come to Graves Glen for two reasons: to re-establish his family's connection to the town and to make a new life for himself away from his father. But when he opens a magic shop of his own just across the street from Gwyn's, he quickly learns that going up against her won't be as easy as he thought... especially after an accidental magic-inspired - and very hot - kiss.

While Gwyn and Wells are fully committed to their witchy rivalry, they soon find themselves thrown together once again to deal with the sudden appearance of a mysterious new coven and Gwyn's growing concern that something - or someone - is messing with her magic.

Climate- and ESG-competent boards are in high demand by investors and other stakeholders. In fact, climate change and other environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues have become some of the biggest challenges faced by 21st-century board directors.

Today’s boards must contend with a wide range of stakeholders who can affect the fortunes of a company―customers, suppliers, employees, shareholders, politicians, activists, and social-media influencers, among others.

This book demonstrates that for long-term profits and sustainability, boards need to not only define the purpose of their company in society but have the insight to ask the right questions of management on complex issues such as climate change, ESG, corruption, cybersecurity, human trafficking, supply-chain resilience, and much more.

With insightful contributions from over one hundred world experts, this book provides board members and executives with a practical guide on what is required today to develop thriving, future-fit organizations.

The insights shared in this book have one common message: the companies with the best chance of surviving and thriving will be guided by leaders with the foresight, knowledge, and determination to tackle the daunting challenges that confront all of humankind.

Wickedly funny. Wildly twisty. The new book from the master of the heist novel.

Super thief Riley Wolfe can do it all. He is a master of disguise, can scale a wall, and can vanish into thin air (thick air, too). He uses these unique talents to rob the richest. But this time, it's the most powerful who have him in their grips.

It's not just that the high-up, rogue government agent has abducted the only two people Riley loves: it's the fact that Riley has to do the man's dirty work to set them free. It's something Riley ordinarily would find a modest day's work, infiltrating a madman's Soviet missile silo in one of the world's most remote places, all to find a secret on a tiny flash drive-but he's never had to race the clock like this.

From its vivid, remote locales to its John Wick-meets-Deadpool dialogue, this gripping heist novel from Jeff Lindsay, author of the Dexter series, is everything: an utterly escapist, must-read novel of espionage, thievery, love and betrayal. It twists, it turns, and keeps everything on the line until the very end. Even for Riley, it looks like this time, the only way out is through.

Becca Andrews
R384 R92 Discovery Miles 920 Save R292 (76%) In Stock

A ground-breaking and deeply moving report from the front lines of the battle to protect a woman's right to abortion.

On Friday 24 June 2022, women's rights suffered an extraordinary and unprecedented blow. Five US Supreme Court justices made a decision that will impact millions of lives for years to come. In this gripping blend of reportage and history, journalist Becca Andrews tells the story how we have arrived at this devastating turning point.

NO CHOICE introduces the origin of abortion and its practice in global cultures, before focusing its gaze on the battle that has been waged for the past century across America, shining a light on the eerie ways in which life before Roe will be mirrored in life after. The wealthy and privileged will still have access, low-income people will suffer disproportionately, and pregnancy will be heavily policed.

Taking us to the frontlines - to clinics, courtrooms, local communities, charities - Andrews tells the deeply moving stories of those who have had abortions, and those who have fought - and are fighting - for the right to abortion. There is a glimmer of faint hope, though. As the battle moves to state legislatures around the country, the book profiles the people who are doing ground-breaking, inspiring work to ensure safe, legal access to this fundamental part of healthcare.

The inspirational final book from the legendary leadership expert Stephen R. Covey, internationally best-selling author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.

How do you live your best life, no matter your age? How should you approach the challenges and opportunities of middle to later life—like raising children, caring for parents, managing and inspiring others, and staying on top of your career and what comes next?

In Live Life in Crescendo Stephen R. Covey sets out to answer these questions, outlining his vision for those in the prime of your life, whatever age you may be. To live life in crescendo is to continually grow in contribution, learning, and influence. In the same way that music builds on previous notes but leaves us anticipating the next note, a life builds on the past but unfolds in the future. The Crescendo Mentality urges readers to use whatever you have — your time, talents, skills, resources, gifts, passion, money, influence — to enrich the lives of people around you.

Written near the end of his life and published posthumously, Live Life in Crescendo is a life-changing and life-affirming book infused with Covey’s generosity and wisdom.

The emigration debate is as old as our democracy itself.

When the “new South Africa” dawned in 1994, many people left the country out of fear for what majority rule would hold. More still left in the years that followed to seek a better life elsewhere, and communities of expats can be found all over the world in places such as Canada, England and Australia. Today, 25 years after the dawn of democracy, as optimism about the country's future ebbs and flows, new impetus has been given to the emigration debate. This time around, it is not only being discussed in reactionary circles, but around dinner tables of all creeds as many people leave for better education, job opportunities and safety. With the reality of nine wasted years tugging at our wallets and future prospects, and the allure of a global economy pulling strong, more and more people are asking, “Should I go?”

In Should we go? more than 20 of South Africa's foremost thought leaders such as Jonathan Jansen, Mandy Wiener, Phumzile van Damme and Ferial Haffajee grapple with this question. It is an attempt to find some answers that will give insight to and challenge every person who is thinking of leaving, has already left, or has decided to stay so that they may thrive as South Africans wherever they are.

It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin as the world watched in sorrow - and horror. As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered what the princes must be thinking and feeling - and how their lives would play out from that point on.

For Harry, this is that story at last.

With its raw, unflinching honesty, Spare is a landmark publication full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.

Prince Harry wishes to support British charities with donations from his proceeds from Spare. The Duke of Sussex has donated $1,500,000 to Sentebale, an organisation he founded with Prince Seeiso in their mothers' legacies, which supports vulnerable children and young people in Lesotho and Botswana affected by HIV/AIDS. Prince Harry will also donate to the non-profit organisation WellChild in the amount of £300,000. WellChild, which he has been Royal patron of for fifteen years, makes it possible for children and young people with complex health needs to be cared for at home instead of hospital, wherever possible.
