Some people go their whole lives without finding the one, but Jenny and Joe always knew they were meant to be. Until they weren't. A freak accident is all it takes to tear them apart. But Jenny has a secret. Joe never left. He's spent the past five months visiting her whenever she's alone, seemingly just as real - if a little less solid - as ever. Desperate to spend every waking minute with him, Jenny increasingly isolates herself from her friends and family. But everything starts to change when she meets Luca, the guy now living in her and Joe's old flat. It's certainly not love at first sight - in fact, they can't stand to be in the same room as each other - but as circumstances throw them together time and time again, Jenny is forced to rejoin the world, and it's not long before she finds herself having fun - something she hasn't been able to do for a very long time. And then the realisation hits: the more time she spends with Luca, the less Joe appears. Jenny knows she has a choice to make. But how will she ever let go of the man she loved before?

<p><b>A profoundly moving celebration of love under the darkest of circumstances from the author of <i>The Nine</i></b><br><br><b>From the moment they met in 1940 in Ravensbrück concentration camp, Milena Jesenska and Margarete Buber-Neumann were inseparable.</b><br><br>Czech Milena was Kafka's first translator and epistolary lover, and a journalist opposed to fascism. A non-conformist, bi-sexual feminist, she was way ahead of her time. With the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, her home became a central meeting place for Jewish refugees.<br><br>German Margarete, born to a middle-class family, married the son of the Jewish philosopher Martin Buber. But soon swept up in the fervor of the Bolshevik Revolution, she met her second partner, the Communist Heinz Neumann. Called to Moscow for his "political deviations," he fell victim to Stalin's purges while Margarete was exiled to the hell of the Soviet gulag. Two years later, traded by Stalin to Hitler, she ended up outside Berlin in Ravensbrück, the only concentration camp built for women. <br><br>Milena and Margarete loved each other at the risk of their lives. But in the post-war survivors' accounts, lesbians were stigmatized, and survivors kept silent. This book explores those silences, and finally celebrates two strong women who never gave up and continue to inspire. As Margaret wrote: "I was thankful for having been sent to Ravensbrück, because it was there I met Milena."</p>

Published to celebrate the life of Oliver Sacks, 10 years after his death 'A must-read for all the people who loved Oliver Sacks's books. The ending made me cry' Temple Grandin"Dear Dr. Sacks . . . You asked me if I could imagine what the world would look like when viewed with two eyes. I told you that I thought I could . . . But, I was wrong."When Susan Barry first wrote to Oliver Sacks, she never expected a response, let alone the friendship that blossomed over ten years of letters. Sue, herself a neuroscientist, wrote to share an extraordinary development in her own medical history. Born with problems with her vision, Sue had been told she would never acquire the ability to see in 3D - and yet she did, a development at odds with decades of research. Within days, Oliver replied, "Your letter fills me with amazement and admiration."Sharing an interest in visual perception and a deep love of science, Sue and Oliver began exchanging letters, delving deeper into the mysteries of sight and marvelling at the adaptive capacity of the human body. But in a painful twist of fate, as Sue's vision improved, Oliver's declined, and his characteristic typed letters shifted to handwritten. Sue later recognised this as an early sign of the cancer that ultimately ended his extraordinary life. A funny and intimate glimpse of the great Oliver Sacks, Dear Oliver is also a love letter to scientific inquiry, and a testimony to the power of friendship at any time in life.
