As a result, Helena leaves behind Allan, the man she loves to travel to Greece. She finds poverty and ruin there, as Greece is still suffering the aftermath of the 10-year revolution against the Ottoman Turks. Helena searches for her father's treasures with Aristotle.

Strange tales from a Russian OccultistThe late nineteenth century saw a rise in the number of people who became interested in the occult and among them were a few who became notable practitioners. Aleister Crowley, for example, became infamous as a member of 'the Golden Dawn' and founder of the religion 'Thelema', and the author of this book, Russian born, Madam Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, became a proponent of Theosophy--a religion of archaic wisdom. Her most famous written work on the subject is 'The Secret Doctrine'. Fortunately, for enthusiasts of the other worldly and supernatural fiction, Blavatsky utilised her more earnest pursuits to provide inspiration and background for some highly entertaining tales of ghosts, horrors and weird occurrences. Her single small volume of supernatural fiction, 'Nightmare Tales', was published in 1892, but there remained a small number of uncollected stories published in magazines of the day. This Leonaur original collects all of these short stories as well as a chapter from her book, 'From the Caves and Jungles of Hindostan', which has in the past been included in anthologies of supernatural tales, to create the most complete collection of Madam Blavatsky's fiction ever published.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.

The memoirs of Helena Sztukowska written by herself take the reader back to the tumultuous events of the 20th Century and in particular to the desperate challenges faced by the Polish people. Born into a noble family in Vilnius in 1901 Helena took authorship of her own story from an early age. From her active involvement in supporting women prisoners and hiding Jewish people during World War II to her work as a defence lawyer for political prisoners in Stalinist Poland Helena’s life was one of profound impact.Throughout her life Helena faced adversity and danger. Blessed with a fierce determination from an early age she took herself to the front lines to work as a nurse in war hospitals seeing at first hand the death and destruction of war. Later she would lose her husband in the Katyn massacre and would herself be imprisoned three times. Helena’s story also spans her own personal passions - animals, the Arts and travel. She was an accomplished equestrian, a collector of antiques and even a pilot of small aircraft. Her memoirs make evident her humour, her passions, her resilience and courage. They give us a glimpse of another age but the abiding joy of reading them is to see them from the perspective of such a resilient and inspirational lady.

A sick girl named Helena is taken by an angel on an ancient sailing boat far away over the waves. Their destination: three cities that glow as if blessed of God - one Jewish, one Christian, one Muslim. Helena comes to realize that all these people believe the same divine law - to love God and their fellow man. Saying goodbye to the angel, and returning to her bedroom, she looks at the three gifts; they have become a single gleaming gold disk. On one side are these words: 'One god, many voices, one people'. On the other side, a glimpse of heaven. Text is provided in English, Arabic and Hebrew.
