Close Quarters评论

Fleeing persecution in Europe, thousands of Jewish emigrants settled in Palestine after World War II. Renowned historian Martin Gilbert crafts a riveting account of Israel's turbulent history, from the birth of the Zionist movement under Theodor Herzl through its unexpected declaration of statehood in 1948, and through the many wars, conflicts, treaties, negotiations, and events that have shaped its past six decades—including the Six Day War, the Intifada, Suez, and the Yom Kippur War. Drawing on a wealth of first-hand source materials, eyewitness accounts, and his own personal and intimate knowledge of the country, Gilbert weaves a complex narrative that's both gripping and informative, and probes both the ideals and realities of modern statehood.

Available only in e-book format, Backteria and Other Improbable Tales is a brand new collection of short tales of terror and the unknown from master storyteller Richard Matheson. In the title story, published here for the first time, a researcher encounters an exotic new strain of virus that causes the infected person to disappear. Curiosity leads the doctor on a path of discovery which takes him deep into his own personal history and suggests the age-old warning: Be careful what you wish for.In "Getting Together", a case of mistaken identity leads to a darkly farcical story of marriage, murder, and a love that knows no bounds. The quietly threatening "Haircut" shows how a routine trim becomes a dark and terrifying experience when a barber is confronted with a sick customer who seems to him otherworldly.

Fans of fractured fairy tales will be delighted to discover the fantasy, mystery, adventure, and humor in the beloved New York Times bestselling Sisters Grimm series by Michael Buckley, now with new cover art.

At a time when Israel is under persistent attack—on the battlefield, by international organizations, and in the court of public opinion—Alan Dershowitz presents a powerful case for Israel's just war against terrorism.In the spirit of his international bestseller The Case for Israel, Dershowitz shows why Israel's struggle against Hamas is a fight not only to protect its own citizens, but for all democracies. The nation-state of the Jewish people is providing a model for all who are threatened by terrorist groups—such as ISIS, al-Qaeda and Boko Haram.Having himself been in one of the Hamas terror tunnels, Dershowitz explains why Israel had no choice but to send in ground troops to protect its civilians against Hamas death squads.

该死的皇帝不是妖怪，就是变态超男！为了活下去，只有忍忍！至少暴君长的还顺眼！咦，这个男人是不是皇帝的床替，靠，一夜情是跟他？切，这些坏男人，全都谁怕谁，玩转没商量！哇，这个美男真是太……想吃了……

这是我第一次尝试在小说里添加‘虐’的元素，因为我最讨厌虐文了，但也不知道怎么回事，写着写着就变虐文了，写来写去的还把自己写哭了，而且还哭的稀里哗啦的，太丢人了有木有？！这篇文写到现在（四天左右）我写了将近五万多字，应该会继续坚持下去的！主要写的是主人公因为某些事情死掉了，然后去了各种世界之后又回来之后的事情，（因为如果详细写完全部的话，我大概会写到N久之后，所以……）中间虽然会和某些人产生暧昧的情愫，但cp什么的还没有定下来，我本人很哈委员长大人，应该会交给他吧……（谁知道呢～）所以，请各位多多留言，但不喜勿喷！那我就先谢谢大家啦！
