228,95 kr. In de jaren negentig geloofden we in een betere toekomst voor de wereld. Toen floreerde nog de ontwikkelingshulp.Vol mooie verwachtingen stuurde Blokzijl twee jonge weg- en waterbouwers naar Nepal. Om waterleidingen aan te leggen.De auteur van deze boeiende roman, Rob Visser, ziet van nabij de spelers van de ontwikkelingssamenwerking in Nepal voorbij komen: de gewichtige bazen, de bellenblazers van de hoofdkantoren, de parmantige hulpverleners, met sympathieke passie, maar ook met een zweem van arrogantie.Hoe kan het dat de hulp soms zinvol is, ondanks gemankeerd beleid, ondanks gehannes met cultuurverschillen, ondanks merkwaardige kenmerken van de gevers van de hulp?Waarom blijken er zoveel overeenkomsten te zijn in besturen in Blokzijl en in Nepal?Wat speelt zich af achter schermen in het wereldje van de expats?Nepal, een geweldig decor. De schrijver en de hulpverleners zijn onder indruk van het schitterend, ongenaakbaar en trots berglandschap, dat blijft verbazen.

- A Dreamtime Fantasy Tales Anthology
148,95 kr. Neil Gaiman once said: "I like stories where women save themselves."Asked to work with this as guideline, sixteen authors from Canada, the UK, the USA, Ireland, and The Netherlands contributed sixteen stories about strong women, dangerous women, witty women, resourceful women, and most of all realistic women. The stories range from general fantasy to high fantasy to sci-fi to steampunk to horror.No swooning, no male saviors, and only one token chain mail bikini (and that one is a riot!). Dreamtime Fantasy Tales authors are proud of our final result and sincerely hope you'll enjoy each and every page.All proceeds of this anthology have been pledged to an animal rescue shelter which we chose knowing that each and every penny raised will benefit the animals, and not a highly-paid CEO.Contributors:Content Editors: Hilary Anderson, Jaq D.

158,95 kr. In this sequel to Will''s War in Brighton (which covered the Brighton Blitz during the summer of 1940) the story focuses on the evacuee experience through the eyes of thirteen-year-old Will Maskall and nine-year-old Brenda Rodmelle. Both of them are evacuated to the Sussex Weald where they will have to adjust to an entire different way of life in strange and sometimes very odd surroundings. This book can be read separately from Will''s War in Brighton and closes off the Will''s War series by Nisse Visser. Fans of the Secret of the Wyrde Woods series might find it to their liking as the story picks up where Forgotten Road leaves off. Although Exile from Brighton does not form essential reading for that series it is an interesting extra as the main characters from Secrets of the Wyrde Woods make a guest appearance. Just as Will''s War in Brighton was based on the recollections and anecdotes about wartime Brighton, Exile from Brighton seeks to capture the evacuee experience based on people''s personal memories.
