     Through a Stranger's Eyes

When love returns to Dave's life, he asks himself has he changed; has she changed. To really see yourself, looking in the mirror is not the answer; you have to see yourself through a stranger's eyes. Just as important, is this real, everlasting love; is it 'need', or true 'want'?When love returns to Dave's life, he asks himself has he changed; has she changed. Is he the man she deserves, desires. To really see yourself, looking in the mirror is not the answer; you have to see yourself through a stranger's eyes. Just as important, Dave and Breen need to decide if this is real, everlasting love; is it 'need', or true 'want'? “Need is when you reach out in the middle of the night to touch the woman laying next to you; the need to reassure yourself she is still there. Want…want is desperately wanting to be there next to her, to be the only man she reaches out for.” And, as Dave has learned, romanticism may be glorious to the woman who receives the benefits – the flowers, the love letters, the small gifts of the heart – but to the romantic it has moments that overwhelm logic; overwhelm common sense.

    Colombiano

      Rusty Young
     Colombiano

In Colombia you have to pick a side. Or one will be picked for you . . . All Pedro Gutiérrez cares about is fishing, playing pool and his girlfriend Camila’s promise to sleep with him on his sixteenth birthday. But his life is ripped apart when Guerrilla soldiers callously execute his father in front of him, and he and his mother are banished from their farm. Swearing vengeance against the five men responsible, Pedro, with his best friend Palillo, joins an illegal Paramilitary group, where he is trained to fight, kill and crush any sign of weakness. But as he descends into a world of unspeakable violence, Pedro must decide how far he is willing to go. Can he stop himself before he becomes just as ruthless as those he is hunting? Or will his dark obsession cost him all he loves? Colombiano is an epic tale of rural villages held to ransom, of jungle drug labs, cocaine supermarkets, witch doctors and buried millions, of innocent teenage love, barbaric torture and meticulously planned revenge. Superbly told and by turns gripping, poignant and darkly comic, Colombiano is the remarkable story of a boy whose moral descent becomes a metaphor for the corruption of an entire nation. Both blockbuster thriller and electrifying coming-of-age story, Rusty Young’s powerful novel is also a meditation on the redeeming power of love.
