Exclusive Love, Anby Johanna Adorjan Read by Anthony Tibber (1 Cd) Johanna Adorjan, has written the story of her grandparents double suicide in Copenhagen in 1991. She set off to reconstruct her grandparents lives, by visiting the places they lived and talking to their surviving friends and relatives. What she finds out about them and herself and her identity is the subject of this well written and well translated memoir. Although she wasn't there, the story is told in flashbacks and she writes as she envisions the Sunday of the suicide unfolding. Interspersed with the day's events, the story tells of her grandparents' lives together, from Hungarian Jews who survived both the Holocaust and the Communist government of post WW2 Hungary to their lives in Denmark, where they had fled during the 1956 Hungarian uprising.

There are detailed accounts of fighting campaigns, the weapons and equipment used and the men involved. It tells of the controversial Orde Wingate's over riding passion for Zionism, a cause embraced when posted to British- ruled Palestine in 1936.

A well researched and well written book. No. 1513 First Lady Of Fleet Streetby Yehuda Koren Eilat Negev and Read by Anita Boston (1 Cd) Rachel Beer was a member of the Sassoon family who had made their fortune in Indian opium and cotton. Her marriage to Frederick Beer brought together two wealthy families. In the late nineteenth century, at a time when women were denied the vote, she became the first and only woman to edit not one, but two national newspapers, The Sunday Times and The Observer. She did this simultaneously. Rachel Beer managed to raise her formidable voice on national and foreign political issues, including the notorious Dreyfus affair as well as on social and women's issues, often controversially. This book provides an important history of two well respected Jewish families, their origins and their rise to power. Sadly, tragedy struck when Rachel's husband Frederick died in 1902 when just 43 years old. Rachel's health began to fail, and in 1927, having been certified as a person of unsound mind, she died aged 69.
