Original Hardcover. Publisher: Lind & Co | 2021 | Original Hardcover | 270 p. | This book is brand new. | Translator: Ekelund, Kristina | Language: Svenska --- Information regarding the book: Livet är en gåva - om vi bara öppnar våra ögon och hjärtan för de små underverken i vardagen. Det är precis vad Stefanos Xenakis gör i sina inspirerande berättelser om livets skönhet och magi. De tar upp teman som tacksamhet, medkänsla, närvaro och kärlek. Men också att det är upp till oss själva att lära oss att se och uppskatta livets gåvor. Vi inbjuds att reflektera över våra egna värderingar, beslut och inre attityder. Varför kasta bort livet på att bli "framgångsrika" genom ändlös tävlan, när vi kan nå storhet genom att helt enkelt vara bra på att vara goda människor? Att leva ett bra liv handlar inte om att bli något ouppnåeligt, utan om att bli den bästa versionen av oss själva.   STEFANOS XENAKIS debut Gåvan blev en omedelbar succé och toppade länge Greklands… Read More

Sedan den grekiska legohärens anförare mördats ledde Xenophon skickligt de grekiska soldaternas strapatsrika reträtt från Babylonien genom Armenien och Mindre Asien till Svarta havets sydkust, där det fanns grekiska kolonier så att de kunde återvända till hemlandet. Det är härifrån den litterära frasen Thalatta, thalatta! (Havet, havet!) stammar, från när de grekiska soldaterna först fick syn på havet framför sig. Anabasis lär vara en av de första självbiografierna.… Read More
