Historia
Body & Soul is the story of a young man whose life is transformed by a gift. The gift is not without price - the work is relentless, the teachers exacting - but the reward is a journey that takes him to the drawing rooms of the rich and powerful, private schools, a gilt-edged marriage, and Carnegie Hall. Claude moves through this life as if he were playing a difficult composition, swept up in its drama and tension, surprised by its grace notes. Music, here, becomes a character in its own right, equaled in strength only by the music of Frank Conroy's own unmistakable, true voice.

Historia
On The Power of Vulnerability, Dr. Brown offers an invitation and a promise - that when we dare to drop the armor that protects us from feeling vulnerable, we open ourselves to the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Here she dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and reveals that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage.

Historia
>When South African conservationist Lawrence Anthony was asked to accept a herd of "rogue" wild elephants on his Thula Thula game reserve in Zululand, his common sense told him to refuse. But he was the herd's last chance of survival: they would be killed if he wouldn't take them. In order to save their lives, Anthony took them in. In the years that followed he became a part of their family. And as he battled to create a bond with the elephants, he came to realize that they had a great deal to teach him about life, loyalty, and freedom.

A Wonderful Story

I have always been enchanted with elephants and thoroughly appreciated how on ThulaThula the elephants were treated with compassion and reverence, allowing them to be the wild creatures they are.

Historia
After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

I loved this book. I don’t know much about octopi, but this was a touching coming of age for two very different people at the opposite ends of life.

Take it slowly!
Revisado: 07-04-22
The story was incredible, but very difficult to listen to. I knew of the horrible suffering imposed on the people in the camps but hearing the detail, and “feeling” the personal story was so sad. I would have to step away for a day or so but made myself finish it telling myself that they couldn’t walk away. A “must read” just so we all know the truth of what happened so it won’t happen again.

This man was an example of compassion, kindness, fairness, integrity, patience and understanding of not only the elephants under his care in Burma but in his interactions and oversight of the people with whom he worked. Everyone who manages people should read this book!

Stick with it! I thought it started very slowly; I almost gave up. The actual accounting of their time in the Arctic was fascinating and awe inspiring!
