The compelling bestseller “The Memory of an Elephant” by Alex Lasker will have the Czech edition released shortly.

★★★★★ This is the debut novel of a well-known and accomplished screenwriter. Lasker wrote films that starred such actors as Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis and Patricia Arquette, among others.

“The Memory of an Elephant” is an epic saga told by an aging African elephant as he makes a last, perilous journey to find the humans who rescued him as an orphan some fifty years ago. Interwoven with his narrative are the tumultuous lives of the family who raised and then lost him: a famed hunting guide and his wife, who runs an animal orphanage ; their son and daughter; and the young Kikuyu who finds the orphaned elephant and becomes part of the Hathaway family.

This timeless story is alternately heartwarming and heartbreaking, spanning east Africa, Great Britain and New York from 1962 to 2015. The greater purpose of the story is that we identify with a sense of the preciousness of life, all life, and share the basic awareness of these truths that make our own lives meaningful.

What readers are saying:

★★★★★ “What a beautiful story. It is one of survival, happiness, sadness and courage. Told from the elephant, Ishi’s perspective, it was unputdownable. I truly felt like I was part of his life! I love elephants and all that they are, so I was wonderfully surprised at just how great a story this was. How well written. It was a story of true love!”

★★★★★ “There are few books I have read with the power of imagery and emotional realism to affect me so profoundly as Alex Lasker’s The Memory of an Elephant. This is not just another animal story. This is a story that originates in a deep sense of injustice, moral sin, brought to vivid reality on an epic scale. It is a masterpiece that ranks with the best classics of animal stories.”

This is the German edition of the inspirational fable “The Billionaire and the Monk” by Vibhor Kumar Singh. It will be coming shortly to bookstores!

Are you happy? This seemingly straightforward question puts two men from opposite walks of life on a personal journey to find the true meaning of happiness.

As their paths cross, the Billionaire who leads a life of luxury and the Monk who believes in renunciation strike up an unlikely friendship, united by their common goal. In the scenic city of Shangri-La, they soon discover that the greatest wisdom often lies in the simplest truths of life.

Donning the roles of teacher and disciple by turns, the two friends show and learn from each other that happiness is in fact a state of mind. And seeking contentment on either end of the spectrum of human experience – be it asceticism or self-indulgence – is futile because joy exists in its purest form in the simple, ordinary acts of daily life. As it demystifies the elusive concept of happiness, this thought-provoking tale offers an answer to the oft-asked question: Can one truly be happy.

“The Billionaire and the Monk” will delight fans of Paulo Coelho and Robin Sharma’s books.
