Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "Gold from the Well," reveals the life of Jocelyn "Josh" Apo, a Haitian refugee whose hard work, faith and unbreakable spirit helped him rise from abject poverty, hopelessness, and despair to the successful American citizen and community leader he is today. The telling alternates between Josh's personal accounts and a narrative storyline; readers are entranced by the book's authenticity. Born into rural Haiti's peasant class, Josh's childhood tribulations and loving mother shaped him into a man of great strength. In October 1980, when he was 20, Josh and 61 fellow Haitians survived a 17-day journey on the open Atlantic in search of a better life. Their physical and emotional limits were dangerously tested. "Gold from the Well," then follows Jocelyn's time as a refugee in the United States, a migrant farm worker, a cherished nursing home employee, and finally the entrepreneurial middle school custodian he is today. "Mr. Josh," is a living testament to perseverance and the power of seeking joy in all things, big and small. A portion of every sale will be donated to charities benefiting Haiti.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "The Corner Stone," is inspired by the actual recent discovery of diamond matter which shifts the recognized advent of life on Earth back nearly a billion years. Commonalities between Asher Feldman (a surly, Jewish geochronology Ph.D. candidate from a long line of New York diamond dealers) and Brooke Jensen (a peculiar, old-money anthropology masters student from Minnesota) are seemingly limited to social reticence, short stature, high I.Q., and an academic focus on diamonds. But the collaboration which ensues after their happenstance introduction results in witty banter, agonizing sexual tension, and an exploration of the bridge between the scientific and mystical powers of the most universally revered material on the planet. A framework of complicated family dynamics and history, fraught with Holocaust survival guilt, diverse relationships, and colliding cultures, provides the canvas for this unusual tale of love between social misfits which is enhanced but not bogged down by scientific inquiry.
