A Brand New World... A strange and yet oh so familiar society. A little different from ours, and then again: not so much. History has been twisted. Just a little. Just enough. In this world we meet ugly duckling Dior Darling whose fate it is to save the world as she uncovers a plot to do away with mankind effectively. As she travels around the world in search of clues, she gets entangled in world espionage, a love affair that isn't, survives an invasion of Aliens, and uncovers a truth she wishes she hadn't. A truth that will forever change life as we know it. Destruction, creation, and personal development are at the heart of this novel, in the eerily estranging way that defines the best science fiction: This world is not our world, but it never ceases to remind us of the fact that is could easily be. Brand New World is slightly absurd, witty - yet another example of Anna's enthralling style of writing that is very often a delicate lace of words that can induce shivers of aesthetic joy and recognition.

Sharing the Light

By: Anna Coudenys,Ben Risby-Jones

In Sharing the Light, the Australian naturopath and healer Ben Risby-Jones provides an honest and profound view on spirituality and what it means to be human. Deriving from his own broad experience, he also challenges the reader to question world views and belief systems, opinions and insights and to formulate a personal vision on spirituality. The ten talks in this book are the result of the cooperation with the Belgian author Anna Coudenys, who, starting from her own search for meaning, poses the questions we all want to ask. The result is a deep, surprising and above all enriching dialogue.

What is Europe?

By: Anna Triandafyllidou,Ruby Gropas

Europe is imbued with a multitude of social, cultural, economic and political meanings. The authors of this comprehensive text present an authoritative yet accessible introduction to understanding Europe today, moving beyond accounts of European integration to provide a holistic and nuanced study of contemporary Europe and its historical development. This book explores evolving definitions of Europe from antiquity, to the Cold War, right through to Europe in the midst of the Eurozone and global financial crises. By examining the different roles and meanings that Europe has held inside and outside of the continent, including the European Union's 'branding' of Europe, the text grounds its analysis in an understanding of Europes plural. Chapters explore concepts of Europe as civilization, Europe as progress, Europe as unity and Europe as diversity. How do Europeans think of themselves and their respective national identities in a multicultural and multi-ethnic age? How has modernity and the pre- and post-industrial values of Europe affected the Europe of now and what are the political legacies of Europe? To what extent are notions of social solidarity shared across the continent? This is the first text to systematically answer these questions, and others, in order to better determine 'what is Europe?
