Cynthia Banham A Certain Light: a memoir of family, loss and hope
For a long time [this story] was too painful to tell … It had to be more than a story about surviving a plane crash, a random event without intrinsic meaning. Written for her young son so that he would know what had happened to his mother, Cynthia Banham found the lives of her Italian grandfather Alfredo and his sister Amelia resonated with her own. The result is a story about what it means to survive.

Yoav Blum The Coincidence Makers
The Israeli bestseller now available in English. The first thing you should know is: there is no such thing as coincidence … Call us what you will, guardians, agents, sentinels or perhaps spirits, angels, demons. No matter how you think of us, we have one purpose. We are architects of chance, we make coincidences. ‘A smart, unpredictable, and heartfelt adventure story’ — Kirkus Reviews
