Our healing journeys differ. Some move country or hit the bottle. Diane`s healing journey was travel. Her son loved travelling & mountain climbing in South America. He`d walked the Inca Trail & longed to return to the sacred citadel of Machu Picchu. On the first anniversary of his death, fragile & aching with grief, she travelled alone to Peru to scatter his ashes there. Diane`s adventures en route were by turns scary, electrifying & humorous: flying over the Nazca Lines; a consultation with an Inca witch; an accidental brush with Peruvian porn.

Burroughs` first novel, a largely autobiographical account of the constant cycle of drug dependency, cures & relapses, remains the most unflinching, unsentimental account of addiction ever written.

A cult classic, it has influenced generations of writers with its raw, sparse & unapologetic tone. This definitive edition painstakingly recreates the author`s original text word for word. ...

Juno Beach

By June 1944, Juno Beach was a key part of Hitler's vaunted Atlantic Wall, with no less than four major strong points along its length. German pillboxes were sited to sweep the beaches with machine gun fire and were surrounded by belts of barbed wire and mines. Leading the attack were the 3rd Canadian Division, supported by the specialist assault tanks of the 79th Armoured Division (Hobart's 'Funnies'). Despite careful planning, poor D-Day weather led to a piecemeal landing and heroic individual battles in the streets of the seaside towns.
