From the International Booker Prize shortlisted author of The Order of the Day and The War of the Poor comes a searing account of a conflict that dealt a fatal blow to French colonialism.'Excoriating and profound . . . A remarkable work' - Scotsman'Absolutely spectacular' - France Info19 October 1950. The war is not going to plan. In Paris, politicians gather to discuss what to do about Indochina. The conflict is unpopular back home in France: too expensive, and too far away for the public to care. Withdrawal is not an option - a global power cannot surrender to an army of peasants - but victory is impossible without more soldiers and more money. The soldiers can be sourced from the colonies, but the money is out of the question. A solution needs to be found.In this gripping and shocking novel, Éric Vuillard exposes the tangled web of politicians, bankers and titans of industry who all had a vested interest in France's prolonged presence in lands far from Paris. Skilfully skewering the guilty, Vuillard shows us how key players in conflicts throughout history often have a motivation even deeper and darker than nationalism and political ideology - greed. As well as bringing scenes from the battlefields to life, Vuillard looks beyond this visceral reality on the ground to the cold calculations of the boardroom elite with the power to turn a military win or loss into their financial gain.Short, sharp and brutal, An Honourable Exit is a journey behind closed doors to witness how history is really made.

Download The Qur'an With English Translation & Grammar Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Quran-Aerab provides grammar and translation of the Holy Quran. It has word-to-word translation and simple translation of verses. Each word of the Holy Quran is analyzed for its essential morphology (صرف) and syntax (نحو). This presentation aims to provide students of the Quran, translation, and grammar on one page instead of looking for such information in various resources. The Grammar is split into two parts. For each word, the low- er row shows root letters (مادة), past tense (فعل ماض), present and future tense فعل مضارع, verbal noun (مصدر) and its form (باب). This information is mostly taken from Qurani Dictionary [1], Taleem-ul-Quran [2], and Bayan Quran [3]. The upper row shows Irabs extracted from Irab Books by Dr. Suleiman Yaqut [4] and Dr. Ali Munem Abdul Hameed (Noor-ul-Yaqeen) [5]. The word-to-word English translation is taken from QuranHive [6], and the verse translation is by Dr. Mustafa Khattab. Other books and dictionaries consulted are shown in the reference list provided below. The first word on every page is hyperlinked to the Irab Book by Dr. Suleiman Yaqut [4]. You can get more details when you click on it, such as the Irab of the sentences. This presentation will be useful for readers who can access it from anywhere in the world. It will benefit all students of the Quran and teachers alike in schools, colleges, and universities.

Pierre de Villiers has walked a hard road. Tortured by his own army, his family killed, surviving cancer; his new life in New Zealand is supposed to bring him peace. But just when his life seems to be on an even keel, his daughter is kidnapped in Auckland and his brother-in-law's wife abducted in Durban. What possible common enemy might the brothers-in-law have?

De Villiers is cast opposite "the major" in a life-or-death battle raging from Auckland to Durban and Hamburg. And on a bigger stage, the major's Force is not done yet; its final statement will be its most violent.
