In spite of many strategies apparently designed to create tolerance and to build bridges among the different people around the world, very little seems to have been achieved in this respect. “Echo of Silent Wishes” is all about the truth expressed in the words of wisdom of Josh Billings: “Wisdom don’t consist in knowing more that is new but in knowing less that is false”. The story of Heide and Abu is more than just the story of a failed marriage. It stands as an example for the problems that can occur in interracial relationships and for the traces left behind especially in the children of such families. It shows the impacts of cultural differences in multicultural homes and the challenges of illegal or legal migration and its social impacts and injustices. And last but not least, it is a very personal story about a good love and mutual responsibility in a relationship that, if neglected, must necessarily go bad. Thus, it tells a truth which, according to Herbert Agar, is the kind of „truth that makes men free“, but „is for the most part the truth which men prefer not to hear”. Yet, it is just this what enables us to see things from a different perspective and in this way to „know less that is false“. https://de.linkedin.com/ http://www.theafricancourier.com/ http://www.nigeriandiaspora.com/ http://www.johnsoncontrols.com/

Haunted by silence, a mute teenage girl is mysteriously given back her voice...and it is divine. "Lyrical and enchanting, SILENT ECHO will resonate in your heart long after you turn the last page. I can’t wait for the sequel!” —Lorie Langdon, author of the DOON series. Rendered mute at birth, Portia Griffin has been silent for 16 years. Music is her constant companion, along with Felix, her deaf best friend who couldn’t care less whether or not she can speak. If only he were as nonchalant about her newfound interest in the musically gifted Max Hunter. But Portia’s silence is about to be broken with the abrupt discovery of her voice, unparalleled in its purity and the power it affords to control those around her. Able to persuade, seduce and destroy using only her voice, Portia embarks on a search for answers about who she really is, and what she is destined to do. Inspired by Homer’s ODYSSEY, SILENT ECHO is an epic story filled with fantasy, romance and original music. "SILENT ECHO is a gripping, original read, with a heroine you won't forget. Katniss Everdeen -- watch out for Portia Griffin." —Erica Wagner, author of SEIZURE

Silent Echoes: Discovering Early Hollywood Through the Films of Buster Keaton is an epic look at a genius at work and at a Hollywood that no longer exists.

Part time machine, part detective story, Silent Echoes presents a fresh look at the matchless Keaton at work, as well as a captivating glimpse of Hollywood's most romantic era.

Parker Peevyhouse's The Echo Room is a smart, claustrophobic, speculative young adult thriller with an immersive psychological mystery. The only thing worse than being locked in is facing what you locked out. Rett Ward knows how to hide. He's had six years of practice at Walling Home, the state-run boarding school where he learned how to keep his head down to survive. But when Rett wakes up locked in a small depot with no memory of how he got there, he can't hide. Not from the stranger in the next room. Or from the fact that there's someone else’s blood on his jumpsuit. Worse, every time he tries to escape, he wakes up right back where he started. Same day, same stranger, same bloodstained jumpsuit. As memories start to surface, Rett realizes that the logo on the walls is familiar, the stranger isn't a stranger, and the blood on his jumpsuit belongs to someone—or something—banging on the door to get in. “The Maze Runner meets Memento in this clever, engrossing sci-fi mystery!” —New York Times bestselling author Jeanne Ryan “The Echo Room is just brilliant.... Full of twists and blinding turns. Peevyhouse is a master storyteller.” —New York Times bestselling author Brittany Cavallaro At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
