She lost sight in one eye while in Sri Lanka covering the civil war, interviewed Gaddafi and Arafat many times, and repeatedly risked her life covering conflicts in Chechnya, East Timor, Kosovo, and the Middle East. Colvin lived her personal life in extremis, too: bold, driven, and complex, she was married twice, took many lovers, drank and smoked, and rejected society's expectations for women. Despite PTSD, she refused to give up reporting. Like her hero Martha Gellhorn, Colvin was committed to bearing witness to the horrifying truths of war, and to shining a light on the profound suffering of ordinary people caught in the midst of conflict.＜br /＞ Lindsey Hilsum's ＜em＞In Extremis＜/em＞ is a devastating and revelatory biography of one of the greatest war correspondents of her generation.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"Now, thanks to Hilsum's deeply reported and passionately written book, [Marie Colvin] has the full accounting that she deserves." ーJoshua Hammer,＜/strong＞ ＜em＞＜strong＞The New York Times＜/strong＞＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"A rip-roaring life rendered extremely well." ー＜/strong＞ ＜em＞＜strong＞Kirkus Reviews＜/strong＞＜/em＞ ＜strong＞(starred review)＜/strong＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The book highlights the devastating price Congo has paid for that support. However, the way the world deals with Congo is finally changing, and the book tells the remarkable stories of those in Congo and the United States leading that transformation.＜br /＞ The people of Congo are fighting back against a tidal wave of international exploitation and governmental oppression to make things better for their nation, their neighborhoods, and their families. They are risking their lives to resist and alter the deadly status quo.

As a result, the way the world deal with Congo is finally changing.＜br /＞ Fidel Bafilemba, Ryan Gosling, and John Prendergast traveled to Congo to document some of the stories not only of the Congolese upstanders who are building a better future for their country but also of young Congolese people overcoming enormous odds just to go to school and help take care of their families.＜br /＞ Through Gosling's photographs of Congolese daily life, Bafilemba's profiles of heroic Congolese activists, and Prendergast's narratives of the extraordinary history and evolving social movements that directly link Congo with the United States and Europe, Congo Stories provides windows into the history, the people, the challenges, the possibilities, and the movements that could change the course of Congo's destiny.＜br /＞ Chosen by Amazon as the Best Book of the Month for December 2018 in Biographies & Memoirs, History, and Nonfiction.＜br /＞ Featuring the life story of Dr. Denis Mukwege, winner of the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

In a time when the old approaches to science coexist with the new, one elite community attempts to understand the world by collecting its wonders. Sir Barnaby Mayne, the most formidable of these collectors, has devoted his life to filling his cabinets. While the curious-minded vie for invitations to study the rare stones, bones, books, and artifacts he has amassed, some visitors come with a darker purpose.＜br /＞ For Cecily Kay, it is a passion for plants that brings her to the Mayne house. The only puzzle she expects to encounter is how to locate the specimens she needs within Sir Barnaby's crowded cabinets. But when her host is stabbed to death, Cecily finds the confession of the supposed killer unconvincing. She pays attention to detailsーyears of practice have taught her that the smallest particulars can distinguish a harmless herb from a deadly oneーand in the case of Sir Barnaby's murder, there are too many inconsistencies for her to ignore.＜br /＞ To discover the truth, Cecily must enter the world of the collectors, a realm where intellect is distorted by obsession and greed. As her pursuit of answers brings her closer to a killer, she risks being given a final resting place amid the bones that wait, silent and still, in the cabinets of Barnaby Mayne.＜br /＞ "A must-read series debut for fans of Tasha Alexander's and Deanna Raybourn's historical whodunits." ー ＜em＞Booklist＜/em＞＜br /＞ "Hart is bound to become a household name for readers who love clever and fair whodunits." ー ＜em＞Publishers Weekly＜/em＞ (starred review)＜br /＞ "Engrossing characters and lush setting, enshrouded within a murder mystery brimming with compelling curiosities, make this a stunning read." ー ＜em＞Historical Novels Society＜/em＞＜br /＞ ＜strong＞Minneapolis Star Tribune's Summer Reading List * One of The Washington Post's Five New Thrillers & Mysteries for the Beach * One of Amazon's Best of the Month * One of LitHub's Five Books You May Have Missed This Month＜/strong＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
