"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." Rumi wrote that eight hundred years ago. People still whisper it to themselves in hospital waiting rooms, on park benches after arguments, at 2am when sleep won't come. His words keep finding the people who need them, the way a song finds you when you need it. If a line of his has ever stopped you mid-breath, then Rumi has already begun his work in you. This collection is where you go to hear the rest. Twenty hours. His complete major works.

Egyptian-born and London-raised, Alya Mooro grew up between two cultures and felt a pull from both. Where could she turn for advice and inspiration when it seemed there was nobody else like her?

He was the brother of "the Arab" killed by the infamous Meursault, the antihero of Camus' classic novel. Seventy years after that event, Harun, who has lived since childhood in the shadow of his sibling's memory, refuses to let him remain anonymous: He gives his brother a story and a name - Musa - and describes the events that led to Musa's casual murder on a dazzlingly sunny beach.

In 2006, he became the first Turkish writer to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature. Autobiographies of Orhan Pamuk is the first book-length study of the life and writings of Pamuk. It provides both a historical and cultural context that will help listeners better understand and appreciate both the man and his work. Though his books deal with specifically Turkish issues, like all great literature, the themes they explore are universal.

We hope it will also serve to awaken further interest in the work and in translations of Iranian novelists and poets.

قبل هذا الكتاب، كان العشاق العذريون في تصورنا أنقياء كالملائكة، معصومين كالقديسين. ويأتي صادق جلال العظم في هذا الكتاب ليمزق القناع عن وجوه العشاق العذريين، وليكشف بالمنطق والفكر الفلسفي العميق، أنهم كانوا في حقيقتهم نرجسيين وشهوانيين.

لقد تفشى الشذوذ في بعض المجتمعات القديمة وأقدم من مارس الشذوذ وعرفوا به هم قوم النبي لوط (عليه السلام). وموقف الدين من قضيتي اللواط والسحاق واضح فهو شذوذ يعاقب مرتكبوه أشد عقاب، وقد أورد الجاحظ في رسالته عدداً من الأحاديث والأخبار تدل على ذلك. أما المواقف الاجتماعية نحوهما فقد تغيرت على مسار القرون، من الرفض والاضطهاد الكامل إلى التقبل والاعتياد له وما بينهما.

يسوع ابن الإنسان أو عيسى ابن الإنسان كتاب صدر لجبران خليل جبران عام 1928، وقد صدر باللغة الإنجليزية من نيويورك، ولم يترجم إلى العربية قبل العام 1962. يصف جبران في كتابه حياة المسيح وتعاليمه لكن برؤيا صوفية، فيرسم صورة المسيح من خلال الآخرين، فيورد آراء سبعة وسبعون شخصًا عاصروا المسيح وعرفوه ومعظمهم ممن ورد ذكرهم في الإنجيل، وهم يمثّلون فئات مختلفة، وقد ابتكر جبران منهجًا جديدًا لتحليل شخصية المسيح والتي أضفى عليها صفة الفرح والقوة والمحبة والصّلابة، والتمرد والثورة ، والعمل والصبر، وذلك في أسلوب غنيّ بالصّفاء والسلاسة والفكر.

"بروتوكولات حكماء صهيون عبارة عن مجموعة من النصوص تتمحور حول "خطة" لسيطرة اليهود على العالم. تم نشر هذه النصوص لأول مرة في الإمبراطورية الروسية في جريدة زناميا في مدينة سانت بطرسبرغ عام 1903 م. يرى العديد من المؤرخين أن هذه الكتابات هي مجرد خدعة وخاصة بعد إجراء تحقيق صحفي عام 1921 م حول مصداقية هذه الكتابات قامت به صحيفة التايمز اللندنية واستخلص إلى أن المقالات هي تزوير أدبي لكتاب فرنسي وتم نشر سلسلة من المقالات التي وصفت عملية التزوير. في نفس السنة -أي عام 1921 — تم طبع النص الكامل للبروتوكولات في الولايات المتحدة وفي عام 1934 قام الطبيب السويسري زاندر Dr. A.

هذا الكتاب الذي تم جمعه بعد وفاة الكاتب جبران خليل جبران يضم عدد الرسائل وبرقية أرسلها جبران إلى مي زيادة عندما كان في نيويورك. وسمي هذا الكتاب بالشعلة الزرقاء بعد أن ألهمت الرسالة الأخيرة جامع الكتاب لهذه التسمية، وقد كانت هذه الرسالة موجزة ومعبرة ورمزية، كما هو جبران عادةً، فهي كناية عن لوحة ليد مبسوطة تخرج منها شعلةٌ زرقاء كتب عليها "من جبران إلى ماري" وتم تأريخها بـ 26/ آذار/ 1931، مما يعني أنها آخر ما خطه جبران قبل وفاته بأسبوعين. الحب الذي نشأ بين جبران خليل جبران ومي زيادة حب أفلاطوني نادر، لم يكن مثله عبر التاريخ، وبالأخص تاريخ الأدب، ولم يكن مثلهما أي عاشق.
