Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In the twenty-five years since it was published, Jewels and Ashes has become a classic, a book that has stood the test of time. Compelled by the momentum of memory, the unsettling fragments of ancestral stories told him as a child, Arnold Zable travels to the Eastern European countryside of his parents' remembrance, the terrain of his dreams and imagination, where he retraces the steps of the generations before him. Miraculously, it is this journey to the past that allows Zable to understand the present - the inner lives of those who, like his parents, survived the hatred but lost every trace of his family and former lives. Arnold Zable has articulated, exquisitely, the haunted consciousness of the next generation. An astonishing achievement, this is a lyrical, transcendent, luminous work. 'A very special book, evincing such superlative narrative skill, such an ability to evoke time, space and character that, for once, I have to agree with what the publisher says on the cover. Jewels and Ashes is indeed an astonishing achievement.' -The Sydney Morning Herald 'Full not of anger and pity but witnessing and self discovery . Zable makes both ordinary and awful moments come alive, often destined to sear the reader's memory.' -Los Angeles Times Book Review 'A beautiful, moving book, always searching, sometimes exuberant, often uplifting . It is characterised not only by a sense of tragedy, but also by a sublime irony, and a rumble of cosmic humour. He confronts suffering but refuses easy sentimentality. He writes so well he is under some sort of obligation to us all to write much more.' -The Age.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. It has become clear over the years that the reaction of America's politicians and media to the attacks of 9/11 was bizarrely misdirected and dangerous to our national security. But no one has fully probed its cultural roots. Until now. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author Susan Faludi brilliantly demonstrates how our culture's seemingly inexplicable response was actually a reflex set centuries deep in the American grain. Her analysis of what went on in the months and years after 9/11 will shock even those who thought they knew the full measure of that tragedy (as her account of the post-9/11 media marketing of flight-suit superheroes, cowering security moms, Jessica-Lynchesque helpless girls, and Daniel Boone-wannabe politicians will outrage and amuse). A masterwork of historical interpretation and a Rosetta stone for deciphering the ongoing spectacle of American politics, journalism, and culture, The Terror Dream flushes from hiding a forceful dynamic that disfigures our lives even in times of normalcy, and that, unless it is confronted, will send us reeling in a wrong direction the next time tragedy strikes.…
