past the broken bridges b celeste

Two broken pasts. One last chance. An unforgettable story of star-crossed lovers, found family, and the fight to live fully…no matter the cost.Sawyer Hawkins and Paxton Banks were inseparable as children, their secret bridge in Louisiana a sanctuary from the world―until Hurricane Katrina swept them apart. Thirteen years and a lifetime of battles later, fate brings them back together when Sawyer returns for college.Sawyer, unbroken and unapologetically alive after a relentless battle with non-Hodgkin s lymphoma, is determined to seize every moment she s been denied. The bucket list she writes is her lifeline: each item a rebellion against the years stolen by illness, each day a chance to taste freedom, friendship, and love.Banks, now a reserved architecture student, carries the weight of his father s abuse and his best friend s addiction, feeling unable to save those he loves. But when he discovers his long-lost friend Sawyer is his new neighbor, her courage and warmth begin to melt through his walls.Their reunion is electric, with witty banter, shared secrets, and a spark that refuses to be extinguished. But as their friendship deepens into a complicated, aching romance, old wounds and new tragedies threaten to tear them apart, and Sawyer s still-declining health becomes impossible to hide.Both must confront the truth: sometimes loving someone means letting them go.Filled with longing, laughter, and heartbreak, this is a story about living fiercely in the shadow of loss, about the courage to love even when time is running out, and about the bridges we build―between hearts, across years, and beyond grief.

When dehumanisation and destruction become the norm, the cycle must be broken. For over twenty years, Ittay Flescher has worked as an educator, journalist and peacebuilder in Melbourne and Jerusalem. When he woke up on the morning of October 7, 2023 to the sounds of rocket sirens over Jerusalem and later saw the devastation of Gaza in response, the grief and sadness that engulfed him - and so many others - compelled him to ask: how can we find a way forward?Following years spent facilitating dialogue between Jews, Muslims and Christians, Ittay believes that peace can only be found if we are willing to empathise with the pain of others.The Holy and the Broken challenges Palestinian and Israeli leaders, citizens and their supporters across the world to imagine a different reality; to look at history with a different eye; and to search for moments of engagement rather than resentment in the narratives of the past that each side tells about itself.Ultimately, it is a story that aims to comfort the troubled and trouble the comfortable.Praise: Courageous and considered. Ittay nurtures the tender, fragile shoots of peace. The world could do with more people like him Paul Kelly, Australian singer-songwriter and guitarist A book of rare insight and compassion, The Holy and the Broken offers the one thing we thought we d lost after October 7: a glimmer of hope for meaningful lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians Bram Presser, author of The Book of Dirt This is a thoughtful and thought-provoking book, heartfelt and honest. You do not need to agree with everything Flesher has to say to find the book moving and challenging Michael Gawenda, former editor in chief, The Age This ability to empathise with the suffering on both sides is a core value of Flescher s reconciliation work, and the underpinning to many of the options he outlines Dr Anne Sarzin, Jwire As challenging and as contemporary as it is compassionate. In a world broken by war and polarisation, Ittay offers peaceful possibilities and nuanced perspectives Rabbi Ralph Genende OAM, author of Living in an Upside-down World The Holy and the Broken breaks new ground. Yet what makes it truly singular is its consistent humanity, and its centring of ordinary Israelis and Palestinians John Lyndon, executive director, Alliance for Middle East Peace This account of the writer s devotion to peacebuilding in our war-torn region is a shining testament to what can and should be done by those who can imagine a future peace. It lights a candle in an age of darkness! Sari Nusseibeh, author of Once Upon a Country: A Palestinian Life When you finish it, you will not only know more about what s happening between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, but you will also know more about yourself Maoz Inon, Israeli peacemaker and social entrepreneur A powerful testament to the possibilities of reconciliation and mutual empathy during conflict, what sets this book apart is its commitment to showcasing the experiences of the diverse individuals involved - especially the integral, yet frequently overlooked, stories of women. By highlighting the gender dynamics at play, Flescher enriches our understanding of the conflict and underscores the importance of supporting a world where more voices are heard and valued Sheila Katz, CEO, National Council of Jewish Women When I picked this book up, I erroneously believed I already understood much about the ongoing, collective trauma of Palestinians and Israelis. But this thoughtful and deeply compassionate book shattered that illusion.

He had been the typical child of innocuous Germans who were never Nazis, and without whom the Nazis would never have been able to do their work . With tragic inevitability, this world of respectability, order and duty began to crumble.Written in accomplished prose of lingering beauty, The Broken House is a moving coming-of-age story that provides a searing portrait of life under the Nazis.

In Slovakia, there are many remarkable bridges which represented the peak engineering ability of their era. However, many of them were gradually forgotten even though some of them were unique even on European, or global level. One of the main tasks of the book Bridges in Slovakia is to show them to the general public and point out, that although Slovakia is a relatively small country it has many bridges which we can be proud of. The book contains information about approximately 250 bridges in Slovakia, which were selected because of their aesthetic, technical, or historical value. On the opening pages there are some basic information about the fundamental statical behaviour of different kind of bridges and the basic construction methods. The second, significantly larger part of the book is then devoted to the selected bridges. By every bridge you can always find its GPS coordinates as well as a short history of the bridge and its basic parameters. The book has 271 pages with 494 color photographs of the current state of bridges, as well as 175 archival photographs, diagrams and drawings.

A provocative book that demystifies Chinaâ ™s great democratic leap backward under Xi Jinping, revealing why the countryâ ™s embrace of capitalism has given rise to hard authoritarianism, mass surveillance, and one-man rule instead of democracy as many in the West had hopedWhen China embarked on its transformative journey of modernization in 1979, many believed the countryâ ™s turn toward capitalism would put its totalitarian past to rest and mark the birth of a democratic, open society. Instead, China reverted to a neo-totalitarian state, one backed by one of the fastest-growing, most formidable economies on earth. The Broken China Dream pulls back the curtain on the regime of strongman Xi Jinping, revealing why the reforms of the post-Mao era have been reversed on nearly every frontâ ”and why the world failed to see it coming. Exposing the truth behind Chinaâ ™s economic ascendency after the Cultural Revolution, Minxin Pei shows how, following Maoâ ™s death in 1976, Deng Xiaoping strategically deployed the tools of capitalism to preserve the Chinese Communist Party. Deng kept intact the institutional foundations of totalitarianism even as he unleashed private entrepreneurship and courted foreign investment, giving Chinaâ ™s one-party state control of a vast repressive apparatus and the most critical sectors of the economy. Only a fragile balance of power among dueling factions prevented the rise of a totalitarian leader in the two decades after the Tiananmen crackdown in 1989â ”but this temporary equilibrium collapsed. Essential to understanding todayâ ™s China, this meticulously researched book is a sobering account of why the countryâ ™s reformers and institutions could not stop a shrewd and ruthless politician like Xi from resurrecting dormant totalitarian practices that, for the foreseeable future, have spelled the end of the dream of a free and prosperous China.
