New Arrivals

The #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The Kite Runner, A Thousand Splendid Suns, and And the Mountains Echoed responds to the heartbreak of the current refugee crisis with this deeply moving, beautifully illustrated short work of fiction for people of all ages, all over the world

Ira Levinson, ninety-one years old and already in poor health, is just holding on; remaining alert only because his wife Ruth, who has died, appears as an image to help him remember their life together: how they met, the paintings they collected and the dark days of World War II.

Like a "multipower book," you can find tips on everything in communication. For example: when being dictated, how to say it, what to say to gain a good impression or how to prevent judgment ... The examples are familiar and especially illustrated with drawings dynamic.

The book is an autobiography of a woman who goes to labor export in Saudi Arabia with the desire to change her life. It was only when she arrived in the Arab country that she realized she was deceived, had to work for large families, exploited to the point of labor.
