The childless mystic Gypsy becomes the surrogate mother for the many children in Balluria; one of them is the mayor's son Salam. Barrya mesmerizes the young boys and girls with her stories mixing myths, legends and history and the secrets of the mystic town. Salam and his best friend Hamid spend countless days together. Salam and Hamid's sister Amel form special bond through poetry and love songs. Unable to recognize her true love, at seventeen, Salam travels to America to study medicine to fulfill his father's dream. Embracing his new life as an American Salam turns his back on his father's dream, his family, friends, and ultimately his own roots. The events of 9/11 and invasion of Iraq awakens long forgotten wounds bringing inescapable massive yearning. Salam travels to his homeland where he finds the mirage of the gypsy woman; she heals him through the revealing of secrets of hidden history of his homeland. Salam finally comes to peace with himself and his past, allowing hope into his heart and into the future. Armand Nassery captures the torment of a man caught between two worlds, a citizen of both but belonging to neither in this spellbinding debut novel. A manifestation of hidden realities and vivid mirages, Armand Nassery's epic saga of love and family reveals the ultimate deceptions and accuracies that have shaped the consciences of generations of Iraqis for the past fifty years. Reminiscent of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude and Khalid Hussieny's The Kite Runner, his retelling of history through the eyes of a mystic Gypsy is a serene, natural mirror reflecting Iraq's past and present. Borne out of the author's own struggle for survival, Where Wolves Dream is a masterpiece, a mesmerizing blend of realism and magic that tears open the struggle of a country too long held in the darkness of violence.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA travel journal of a unique experience working on a conservation and research project in Romania. More info at: www.dreamingofwolves.com. Part travelogue, part memoir, part exposition of natural and cultural history, Dreaming of Wolves presents a unique and colorful story of adventure. Through a series of entertaining vignettes, the author paints an intimate and intricate picture of nature and life as it occurs in a fascinating part of Europe that has remained largely untouched by modern trends and undiscovered by western travelers, at least until recently. Whether joining the narrator as he tracks wolves in the forests of the Carpathian Mountains, or battles antagonistic shepherd dogs, or sits on the floor of a cave contemplating time and consciousness, or makes a journey through history to discover the real Dracula, as one reads Dreaming of Wolves one absorbs, almost without realizing it, a remarkable amount of factual information about wolves, about traditional and rural life in Romania, about the history of Romania, about animal behavior, and even about physics. Written in an understated style, the story is related with an honesty and a subtle sense of humor that derives from events perceived by a keen and sensitive eye. The book presents several sub-themes - such as, the importance of conserving wilderness, the value of discovering self through uncovering and pursuing one's dreams, the nature of time and consciousness - all of which are woven smoothly into the fabric of a well-told story. The author's beautiful color photographs of the people, animals and locales enhance the narrative and help the reader to understand the cultural and historical perspectives that influence life in Romania today.
