You Shall Not Kill
A captivating story about guilt, vengeance, the weight of conscience and the ghosts that haunt us and condition our decisions. Whether plagued by the foreignness of exile or taking arms and stealing life, Julia Navarro's You Shall Not Kill positions belonging, family, loyalty and even vengeance within a naked reality dressed in spellbinding poetic prose. Although we can never return home, we can, apparently, take the blue pill and return with Navarro to the 1940s, a highly chronicled decade rich in nostalgic prominence, even though Navarro's 1940s Europe feels contemporary and relevant to our current moment. With today's divisive political climate, You Shall Not Kill is the emotional education we all didn't know we so desperately needed. Although the essence of the novel hinges on Fernando, a young editor whose father, an imprisoned Republican, asks him to forego the front and ponder the shackles of war; the tale is one of wanderlust adventure, unadulterated passions and exilic reinvention. Follow Fernando, Catalina and Eulogia as they chart new paths, each one abandoning old ghosts and yet learning that ghosts do not respect national borders. Fleeing a battered, post-Civil War Spain, the young adults move through Alexandria and Nazi-occupied Paris, sharing their lost generation anxieties with other expats and immigrants trying to find self, despite losing faith in humanity. Three novels in one, the young protagonists celebrate and take refuge in alcohol and lose control in desperate moments of lucidity. However, despite witnessing the darkness of the day, they persevere to teach us that pure principles of liberty are precious, delicate and ultimate privileges. To read Navarro's overture is to entertain a better version of ourselves. You Shall Not Kill offers a pause from daily life to shoulder the enormity of existence. If we are what we read, then reading Julia Navarro's You Shall Not Kill promises an optimistic future because we take the time to face our pasts - past selves, past homes and past mistakes.
The Brotherhood of the Holy Shroud
The Brotherhood of the Holy Shroud is the explosive international bestseller that mixes fact and fiction to tell the riveting story of one of the world’s most controversial relics—the Holy Shroud of Turin—and the desperate race to save it from those who will stop at nothing to possess its legendary power.... A fire at the Turin cathedral and the discovery of a mutilated corpse are the latest in a disturbing series of events surrounding the mysterious cloth millions believe to be the authentic burial shroud of Jesus Christ. Those who dare to investigate will be caught in the cross fire of an ancient conflict forged by mortal sacrifice, assassination, and secret societies tied to the shadowy Knights Templar. Spanning centuries and continents, from the storm-rent skies over Calvary, through the intrigue and treachery of Byzantium and the Crusades, to the modern-day citadels of Istanbul, New York, London, Paris, and Rome, The Brotherhood of the Holy Shroud races to a chilling climax in the labyrinths beneath Turin, where astounding truths will be exposed: about the history of a faith, the passions of man, and proof of the most powerful miracle of all….
Shoot Me, I ́m Already Dead
The gripping story of two families struggling to overcome their own destinies. A mosaic of treachery and revenge, of possible and impossible loves, and of the great adventure that is living and surviving in a land marked by intolerance and outrage. Marian Miller, an NGO aid worker, is asked to write a report on illegal Jewish settlements on Palestinian territories. In order to do so, she wants to make sure she understands both sides of the story. Marian arranges a meeting in Israel with Ezekiel Zucker, an elderly man who, like many others, has a lot to tell and also, a secret to hide. Ezekiel will narrate his story as if it were a massive jigsaw puzzle with many complex pieces and Marian will tell him the version she's familiar with: the Arab one. At the twilight of the 19th century, the Zuckers are banned from their homeland of Russia because they are Jewish. After undergoing unspeakable horrors and injustices under the tsar's rule, they set out for the Promised Land and buy land owned by the Ziads, an Arab family headed by a man named Ahmed. The two men, Ahmed Ziad and Samuel Zucker, will establish a strong bond, a friendship that can overcome religious and political differences and that will continue on for generations. This riveting family saga that culminates in 1948 is not only Julia Navarro's best and most ambitious novel yet, it's a tale filled with real people taking responsibility for their own destinies by following their dreams and fighting for their lives. An unforgettable novel that, like all of history's greatest books, conceals many novels within.
