A Groundbreaking New Perspective of Princess Margaret by Renowned Biographer Meryle Secrest Meryle Secrest, distinguished biographer in the arts and humanities, and recipient of a White House Medal, has turned her focus to royalty. In Princess Margaret and the Curse, she has put the conventional view of a much-reviled Princess on its head. Her latest study, which she considers more of an investigation than a biography as such, proposes that nobody knows the truth about the fabled, doomed Princess. She is the first person to have looked at Princess Margaret in a particular family context. That is to say with reference to her mother, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, the daughter of a famous, hard-drinking Scottish family that had inhabited an ancient dwelling, Glamis Castle, for centuries. Her older brothers were already renowned for their prowess in alcohol consumption. Decades later, once she became Queen Mother, this Elizabeth would begin to imbibe by eleven in the morning. She was already lamenting the loss of her "drinking powers" when, because of severe bouts of morning sickness during her first pregnancy with the future Queen Elizabeth in 1926, she could not drink. Four years later, while pregnant with Princess Margaret in 1930, she was not so handicapped. Doctors believed it was perfectly safe for a mother-to-be to drink, so she drank. The doctors were wrong. But it took another forty-three years, until 1973, before new studies established that alcohol in any amount was poisonous to the developing human being. The effect is lifelong. We now know that victims’ growth is stunted (Margaret stopped growing at five feet), and their skeletal structures are fragile. They get sick sooner and age faster. There are characteristic emotional differences, too. They never develop maturity of mind. They remain subject to sudden tantrums, rages, are poor judges of character, and particularly prone to run and hide, as Princess Margaret tried to do all her life. They may be as intelligent and gifted as she was, but mulish and fly into a rage. They are, it turns out, exactly like the person she became. None of this has ever been recognized, let alone understood. With this study, the author places Margaret's life in its proper perspective. It seems particularly sad that someone expected to be perfection itself in her manners and behavior should have been born in the one situation where perfection was, in fact, impossible. It is time we looked at this public figure from a new and more forgiving frame of mind, and with a new understanding.

The Flowers of the Storm: Soul Rendings on White Sheets of Paper. A NovelThis book is in Romanian. It is a love story having a young Romanian woman and a French army officer as protagonists. The action takes place during WWI.Romanul Florile furtunii. Sf şieri de suflet pe coli albe de h rtie de Mery Bencu Rovenţa este o captivantă poveste de dragoste ntre un ofiţer francez şi o t nără moldoveancă, o dragoste nsoţită de imagini romantice ntr-o natură minunată ce contrastează cu realitatea şi tragismul primului război mondial.Cartea are o bază reală şi toate personajele au existat şi au trăit n realitate n Nicoreşti.Autoarea doreşte nu numai să impresioneze inima cititorului, ci şi să aducă n suflet aromele tradiţionale moldoveneşti. Vă recomandăm această carte plină de romantism şi de istorie rom nească. CUV NTUL AUTOAREI: Există n noi o moştenire veche a unui neam, o nobleţe rom nească, care trebuie păstrată ca o comoară de preţ, căci cuprinde şansele existenţei unui popor care a suferit at t şi care trebuie trezit la realitate.Doresc să transmit idealismul nostru, al generaţiei interbelice. căreia i aparţin şi să mprăştii scepticismul şi ncercarea de a distruge credinţa unei naţiuni at t de valoroase ca cea rom nă. Deşi sufocată şi manipulată de comunişti, de ţigani, de parveniţi, de escroci, de farisei, naţiunea rom nă se dezmorţeşte şi ncercă să se manifeste aşa cum este ea, bl ndă şi inteligentă, tolerantă şi talentată, curajoasă şi dreaptă. Greşiţi dacă credeţi că ceea ce voi scrie aparţine implicit vieţii mele. Ceea ce scriu aparţine unui trecut care ar fi putut să fie altul dacă istoria ne-ar fi cruţat de legionari şi de comunişti. Personajele mele au trecut pe tăr mul celălalt, dar intră n contemporaneitate, deşi au plecat de mult. Cum ar fi arătat Rom nia dacă nu ar fi fost aceşti 50 de ani? Ar fi devenit o Elveţie sau o Austrie? Totdeauna nsă mai există o şansă şi voi, cei tineri, trebuie să faceţi o ţară aşa cum o visaţi. Răm neţi consecvenţi şi nu acceptaţi compromisuri. Rom nia are n ea şansa de a deveni prosperă şi nu o groapă de gunoi. Nu vă vindeţi ca de la Revoluţie ncoace pentru un pumn de arginţi, ci munciţi pentru grămada de aur care se află la picioarele voastre. Istoria este ca un cristal care poate să ţi dezvăluie nenumărate faţete n funcţie de unghiul n care este privit. n această carte doresc să privim istoria de jos n sus prin ochii soldaţilor şi ai tinerelor fete, prin ochii ţăranilor care au trăit războiul pe dealurile din jurul Mărăşeştiului. Atunci am fost mai europeni ca niciodată şi loiali unei cauze pierdute din care s-a născut Rom nia Mare. Acum este r ndul vostru.Mery, 23 August 2011Citiţi această frumoasă poveste de dragoste şi nvăţaţi mai multe despre Rom nia. Cumpăraţi această carte acum

Nikolai Mendeleyev, a noted Russian physicist, defies his government's orders to begin working on a secret weapons project. Threatened with imprisonment, he stows away on a freighter bound for America and enters the country illegally. Penniless and speaking only halting English, he is hired by Beth Winters, a no-nonsense English professor, who needs help caring for her terminally ill mother and the home they share. Nikolai tranforms the older woman's dying days into a time of peace, but he and Beth always clash. Beneath the surface, however, a growing physical attraction simmers between them. Although Beth and Nikolai struggle to contain their escalating emotions, their tempestuous desire sweeps them into a passionate love affair. Their relationship ricochets between dramatic highs and devastating lows. Can their love survive, and can their passion supercede the doubts and fears that have forced them part?

Rumi's Daughter is a collection of poems that documents the journey of the experience of different forms of love and the expression of the language of the soul. In the transition of childhood to adulthood, the author gives personal narration and voice to her path from a state of longing for what is beyond the reach of the external world, to discovering the secret of the state of ultimate inner liberation.

For the heart born to love, that seeks peace in all it pursues, there is a way of quenching that yearning. Take my hand and I promise to hold your heart through a journey you know from within, you must take. From whichever place you are from and whatever you hold from within, it is your birthright to know peace, so let us begin. For the child heart born to love, there is a way of reviving their little heart again.

AN INTERNATIONAL CRIME THRILLER WITH A SUPERNATIURAL TWIST: A DEEP DIVE INTO CHAOS AND REDEMPTION, YOUNG LOVE AND MATURE LOVE, AMIDST A DESPERATE STRUGGLE FOR SURVIVAL. Adoption, at its best, is a loving, thoughtful relationship. At its worst, it's a kidnapping. Addison Marisol Diaz, Ph.D., a Mexican-American Forensic Psychologist in private practice in San Francisco, is also a nationally recognized psychic in criminal cases. From Christmas eve to New Year's Day, two adoptive families find their relationships tested to the limit when they are brought together in an urgently escalating FBI case. A wealthy San Francisco couple, Mike and Ana Doyle, are referred to Addison. The FBI agent in charge of the case believes Addie's experience in adoption counseling and her status as an adoptive parent will help them calm down enough to cooperate with the FBI investigation. When the case escalates, an FBI cartel expert is brought in to lead the investigation into southern Mexico. Addie is asked to join the team, and in coordination with Mexican authorities, they begin to work the case in Oaxaca de Juarez, 2,600 miles from San Francisco. Ramiro, a mysterious independent criminal in Oaxaca, and his wife Adela, a Zapotec from a nearby mountain tribe, become enmeshed in a conflict with a Zeta cartel cell newly established in Oaxaca City. Addison is plunged into the confrontation between Ramiro, the Zetas and the FBI. Her psychic skills ratchet up as the Zetas murder one captive and threaten the survival of Ramiro's son and the Doyles' daughter, in an isolated mountain forest above Puerto Escondido, a beautiful low-budget Riviera on Oaxaca's Pacific coast.
Juana I de España. La Reina Cautiva

La historia de Juana I de Castilla, mal llamada la Loca, es tan novelesca que bien podr a confundirse con un culebr n televisivo, salvo porque son sesudos cronistas y no afamados guionistas quienes se encargaron de relatar lo que sucedi en aquellos a os convulsos de la historia. Esta mujer, soberana de unos reinos por primera vez unidos en una sola corona, fue privada de recursos, expoliada, maltratada, ignorada y, finalmente, recluida y olvidada. Pero los cronistas dieron por buena la versi n proporcionada por sus padres, por su marido, por su hijo, y aceptaron de forma acr tica que la reina estaba loca. Loca de amor por un marido que le faltaba al respeto, la encerraba y la maltrataba en privado y en p blico y a quien ella se enfrentaba tenazmente. Siglos despu s, el Romanticismo se adue de su historia falseando los hechos. Las escenas que han dado lugar a la leyenda de la locura de amor no sucedieron, o no ocurrieron como se cuentan, o no por las razones que se esgrimen. Por qu causa Juana se ha convertido en el paradigma de la locura de amor? Quiz por la misma raz n que durante siglos el asesinato de las mujeres a manos de sus maridos se ha venido calificando como crimen pasional. En verdad, de Juana I sabemos lo que contaron los hombres que escribieron sobre sus padres, sobre su marido y sobre su hijo. Las cr nicas nunca la tuvieron por protagonista, nunca recogieron sus pensamientos, sus inquietudes, sus proyectos. Ni siquiera sus penalidades o sus protestas, porque como ya se al Eduardo Galeano, la historia la escriben los hombres, los blancos, los ricos y los militares. Ellos son quienes cuentan lo que sucede y ellos hablan de lo que les concierne y desde la perspectiva de quien posee el poder. Pero, qu hubiera ocurrido si la historia la hubieran contado las mujeres? Finalmente, qu inter s tiene para las mujeres de hoy una reina nacida en el siglo XV? Cuando menos, constatar que la misoginia y la violencia machista no son fen menos recientes sino estructurales y transversales, desde la base hasta la cima de la pir mide social. Solo conociendo la naturaleza y raices del problema se podr n atajar sus consecuencias. "Juana I de Espa a. La reina cautiva" no es un libro de historia, ni siquiera una novela hist rica, es el relato de una periodista que relee los anales del siglo XVI con ojos de mujer y se hace preguntas sobre la vida de otra mujer que, por una sucesi n de malaventuras, acab siendo la primera reina de Espa a.
