For readers of The Paris Library, The Age of Light and The Paris Wife. PARIS, 1919. Young, bookish Sylvia Beach knows there is no greater city in the world than Paris. But when she opens an English-language bookshop on the bohemian Left Bank, Sylvia can’t yet know she is making history. Many leading writers of the day, from Ernest Hemingway to Gertrude Stein, consider Shakespeare and Company a second home. Here some of the most profound literary friendships blossom - and none more so than between James Joyce and Sylvia herself.

The Ghost Tattoo discovering the hidden truth of my father’s Holocaust by tony Bernard The profoundly moving story of a son’s quest to uncover his father’s Holocaust secret. To the outside world, Henry Bernard was a hard-working and beloved family doctor on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Yet he was also a Holocaust survivor whose life was profoundly affected by the experiences of his past. He took extreme steps for his family’s security, keeping a rifle near his bedroom and covering up his family’s Jewish origin. He was obsessed with paying off debt - the German word for debt being the same as the word for ‘guilt’. He kept his striped Auschwitz uniform with a picture of his mother in his wardrobe. These obsessions helped destroy his marriage and restricted any hope he had of conventional domestic happiness. But Henry had a bigger secret and a deeper shame about what he had done during the war. He suffered privately until he began returning to Germany and Poland to confront his past and come to terms with the deaths of his parents and of Halina, the love of his life. The Ghost Tattoo is the story of how Tony Bernard, Henry’s eldest son, went on a forty-year journey with his father to solve the mystery of why Henry was the way he was, and how he finally came to understand the desperate choices Henry had made in the ghetto to try to keep himself and his family alive. The Embroidered Book by Kate Heartfield A sweeping historical epic with a thread of magic, perfect for readers of THE FAMILIARS, THE BINDING, and THE MINIATURIST. ‘Power is not something you are given. Power is something you take. When you are a woman, it is a little more difficult, that’s all’ 1768. Charlotte arrives in Naples to marry a man she has never met. Two years later, her sister Antoine is sent to France to marry another stranger. In the mirrored corridors of Versailles, they rename her Marie Antoinette. But the sisters are not powerless. When they were only children, Charlotte and Antoine discovered a book of spells - spells that seem to work, with dark and unpredictable consequences. In a world of vicious court politics, of discovery and dizzying change, Charlotte and Antoine use their secret skills to redefine their lives, becoming the most influential women of the age. But every spell requires a sacrifice. As love between the sisters turns to rivalry, they will send Europe spiralling into revolution. Brimming with romance, betrayal, and the hidden power of women, THE EMBROIDERED BOOK reveals and reimagines a dazzling period of history as you have never seen it before. Dancing with the Machine adventures of a rebel by Jo Morgan Extraordinary escapades from a late-life adventurer. Mountaineer, adventurer, avid motorcyclist and constant traveller, Jo Morgan has lived an extraordinary life. The youngest of eight children, Jo was brought up largely by her mum after her father died when she was only one, and she has always had an adventurous side. As soon as she turned 15, Jo got her driver licence and bought her first motorbike: the start of a lifelong love affair. After meeting her future husband, Gareth Morgan, Jo got married and had a baby. Instead of settling down, though, the couple bought a passenger bus to live in with their children, setting the scene for a life less ordinary. Jo, along with Gareth and friends, has driven a motorbike through more than 110 countries and visited nearly 140 countries in total. But she would leave her greatest adventures till later in life when she took up climbing in her late fifties. She set herself a goal of summiting all 24 of New Zealand’s 3000-metre-plus mountain peaks, with the help of her guide and friend Wolfgang, nicknamed The Machine. They would ascend all but two of them before tragedy struck, killing both Wolfgang and his colleague Martin. In Dancing with the Machine, Jo recounts the remarkable, often hair-raising and occasionally tragic story of her unconventional life. 1000 PIECE JIGSAW PUZZLES $19 99 ea 2 fOR $ 30 1005 Ferry rd Ph 384 2063 CLOSED SUNDAY while stocks last (see instore for terms and conditions) Please stay saFe everyone!

Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz ‘It’s a nice feeling to give’ • By Emily Moorhouse AN 8-YEAR-OLD’S act of kindness has not gone unnoticed. Emilee Dawson wanted to make sure others waiting in line at the petrol station weren’t getting thirsty after experiencing a lengthy wait with her mum. Emilee and her mum Phee Dawson had been in line for about half an hour to get fuel from the Woolston Waitomo, because prices were set to rise that evening. When the pair arrived at their home just across the street Emilee asked if she could go and give out free drinks to people also waiting in line. “They were sitting out there all afternoon and I didn’t want them to be thirsty like I was,” Emilee said. She filled up two trays with cups of juice, Coke and lemonade and, with her mum, walked them across the street to hand out. Her proud mum said she thought it was very sweet her little girl wanted to do this for others. Her kind act was acknowledged a few days later when a package from Waitomo arrived on their doorstep, addressed to Emilee. Emilee was delighted by the surprise and said the kiwi teddy was her favourite. When asked why she wanted to give out drinks Emilee said: “Well, because people will like you and you will have friends and it’s a nice feeling to give to people. “I feel it’s better to give than receive even though I still got stuff, which was nice, but it felt better giving out the drinks.” KINDNESS: Emilee Dawson received a gift from Waitomo after handing out free drinks to people waiting in line for fuel. PHOTOS: STAR MEDIA • From page 1 Sumner Redcliffs RSA secretary Olwyn Palmer said although its a shame not to have a public service they would be following the Government guidelines. “Everybody [in the RSA] is of the age they are very accepting of people’s health and respectful. We think that’s more important. “We are doing something and commemorating them,” Palmer said. Banks Peninsula RSA will be doing something similar. “That is just the way world is at the moment,” said Banks Peninsula RSA president Jim Coubroughand. Coubroughand said they would be placing the sand crosses at the memorials in Akaroa and Little River as they did two years ago. “We ask people when they’re out near memorials if they wish, to place a poppy in the sand cross,” he said.

Look for monuments commemorations in 2020 either, people were asked to stand at their gates at home to remember the fallen. Hansen recommended that observance again and said the NZRSA also had other alternatives. “We’re suggesting members of the public go and lay their tribute at a cenotaph or memorial in their area at a time of their choosing,” he said. “Also pay a visit to your local cemetery and go into the service areas. Perhaps lay some flowers on the graves, and remember for a couple of minutes. “There are hundreds of little monuments all round the city and suburbs that get overlooked. “We’re urging people to go and find them, read the history of them, take an interest, take a bit of ownership and do your own tribute there.” “They shouldn’t be forgotten,” Hansen said. • Additional reporting by Chris Barclay Turn everyday essentials into SuperGold Find all the ways you could stretch your money further.
