Do you speak Aragreelish?
A tycoon from Saudi Arabia, a man in the body of a boy with ambitions only he can understand – an eagle flying towards an endless horizon and watching the world from above – is in search of a blurry vision of a dream he cannot define.
An architect born in Lebanon from a French father and Brazilian mother, a boy in the body of a man, wise like an old owl but with no dreams, lost between the different cultures, with no country nor specific dream.
The two men meet and stay together for years. They consider themselves the pieces of a two-piece puzzle that can never be joined. Traditions keep them apart.
In a mysterious relationship, the Saudi Sheikh cleverly uses the ethics of the architect in an attempt to keep the other beside him forever. The journey they have together evolves around the world, leads to adventures full of love, passion and fear, and reveals the strange personalities of the heroes.

Dodgson’s Dodo
This is the story of six characters, all birds. What begins as a quirky woodland tale evolves into a challenge to the mismanagement of the environment by humans, and their abuse of power over all other species. There’s banter between the birds, information about the natural world, there’s serious debate and there’s satire. It’s fun and it’s thought-provoking.
The title refers to the fact that Charles Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) immortalised the otherwise extinct dodo in ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’. The dodo was yesterday’s bird, but what will be the fate of tomorrow’s birds, of tomorrow’s humans and of our fragile, suffering planet?
The hero of ‘Dodgson’s Dodo’ is a feisty rook, Rachel, who plays a smart role in this fascinating, imaginative and beautifully realised story. All the birds are real characters, and everyone reading it will be both entertained and better informed. It’s witty and memorable, but above all it’s topical and relevant. Its message is urgent.
“It should be prescribed reading for high school Biology students.” Anne Kendall - retired high school science teacher.

This magical read takes us on an insightful journey where individual stories from around the world blend and unfold as Dog’s intimate understanding of the big picture grows.

The best and worst of human nature is exposed here. Our assumptions are challenged as this book digs deep into ideas which will resonate with many.

Don’t Fall in Love with a Dreamer
Louis Morin is a type-2 dreamer. No wonder he’s been drawn to Australia, the Dream Land of the Aboriginal people’s culture. In the wake of the new carbon trading laws, he dreams of turning the parched Red Centre back to green and the Great Salt Lakes back to blue. As always in Australia, big business is not far behind a big, profitable dream.
It is October 2000, at the beginning of the Southern hemisphere summer, and at the end of the Sydney Olympics, which troublemaking-tragic Helen came to watch. While a three-day affair with Louis is in the swing of things to expect, falling in love with him isn’t.
Along comes Horace, another type-2 dreamer who also wants to change the world, with powerful allies to back up his "LFV" dream and a more radical approach to making it come true, including body count. It also includes his, unfortunately.
A challenge to her sanity, already heavily tested, Helen fears for her son’s life. Compelled to blend two dreams in one, Louis finds himself on the shaky grounds of corporate and political worlds, places he, as a researcher, had never been prepared for. But there is always the next dream, and it may well be just waiting for him... at home!
About every seven years, the Great Australian Lakes flood, and flamingos return.

Don’t You Believe Me?
Will someone not wonder what you are about,
If the truth remains hidden and does not come out?
An opportunity to get your husband the £10,000 that he owed.
Does that not sound good? Is that not what Kelly would have thought, and gone along with, when presented with this once in a lifetime offer?
But those who presented her with this opportunity, were they really her friends? Were they thinking of her? Or, were they using her, and thought only of themselves?
And what of the malicious gossip going on in the background, accusations of which she was totally unaware.
If only she had told her husband the truth right from the start, then all the uncertainty and mistrust would not have ensued.
But she did not. She wanted everything to be a surprise. Thinking it was the right thing to do but she kept quiet. And the quieter she kept, the more guilty she appeared...
As Christmas drew near she decided to tell him the truth. But had she left it too late?
Her nonsensical story, her ridiculous version of events sounded so far-fetched and absurd.
After all of this time, after all of the secrecy, was she expecting too much to imagine that he would believe her?
