Borough of Churches is a collection of ten stories told in a range of styles and a variety of voices that exemplify the possibilities of fiction in all (or at least several) of its forms. The search for solace of some kind is of central importance in each of these stories as well as the unintended consequences that can result from the attainment or near attainment of ones most sought after goals. - E-bokEngelska, 2003

Uptown. Downtown. The city on the move. In ceaseless motion below the ground and on its streets. N.Y.C. Transit[s] is an assemblage of narratives and dramas, of rants, aperus, and New York moments that constitute the daily experience of voyaging from here to there amid the urban vortex. Step lively please. .At any given moment tragedy and farce can be observed riding the subway train together to different destinations; while the banal and the fantastic are experienced in equal measure onboard a city bus. Stand clear of the closing doors. - Häftad, Engelska, 2016

During the Vietnam War, U.S. Army Special Forces A-Teams were deployed to isolated outposts or "camps” in the remote areas of South Vietnam. Their job was to recruit, train, and house members of the indigenous population while molding them into combat-ready fighting units. A-Teams consisted of up to 12 Green Beret soldiers who were experts in both combat and their individual military specialties. The role of the indigenous units, in conjunction with their American advisors, was to provide border security, counter the Viet Cong insurgency in the countryside, provide intelligence on enemy troop-strength and activities, and when necessary engage elements of the invading North Vietnamese Army. Bac Si (the Vietnamese term for “medic”) is the story of Sgt. Jerry Krizan who was assigned to Special Forces Camp A-331 in the III Corps tactical zone, only 10 miles from the Cambodian border. Because of its proximity to a major north-south NVA infiltration route, there were constant enemy troop movements through the camp's area of operations and A-331 itself came under attack on more than one occasion. The author meantime needed to accompany patrols and probes into enemy territory, not only prepared to provide aid but fight as a soldier if the squad was ambushed, or itself chose to attack. In this small-unit warfare against an expert enemy, U.S. soldiers had to survive as best they could, with their only succor a Huey, and meantime on the ground by themselves against unknown opposition.Our Green Beret base camps were our very first line of defense along the borders of South Vietnam, and in this book, through the eyes of a medic, we learn how dire, and confusing, a role we asked our Special Forces to play during that era. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2018

Elite units carried out many dangerous operations during the Vietnam War, the most secret and hazardous of which were conducted by the Studies and Observations Group, formed in 1964. In the years since the Vietnam War, the elite unit known as SOG has spawned many myths, legends and war stories. Special Forces medic Joe Parnar served with SOG during 1968 in FOB2/CCC near the tri-border area that gave them access to the forbidden areas of Laos and Cambodia. Parnar recounts his time with the recon men of this highly classified unit, as his job involved a unique combination of soldiering and lifesaving. His stories capture the extraordinary commitment made by all the men of SOG and reveal the special dedication of the medics, who put their own lives at risk to save the lives of their teammates. Parnar also discusses his medical training with the Special Forces. During his tour with SOG, Parnar served as a dispensary medic, chase medic, Hatchet Force medic and as a recon team member. This variety of roles gave him experience not only in combat but in dealing with and treating the civilians and indigenous peoples of that area. There is a graphic account of a Laotian operation involving America’s most decorated soldier, Robert Howard, during which Parnar had to treat a man with a blown-off foot alongside nearly fifty other casualties. It is a reminder of the enormous responsibility and burden that a medic carried. This new edition of SOG Medic makes this highly-praised and sought-after book available again once more, with additional photos and maps. - E-bokEngelska, 2018

The Military Assistance Command, Vietnam Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG) was a highly classified, multi-service United States Special Forces unit which conducted covert unconventional warfare operations prior to and during the Vietnam War. The unit conducted strategic reconnaissance missions in South Vietnam, North Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia; carried out the capture of enemy prisoners, rescued downed pilots, and conducted rescue operations to retrieve allied prisoners of war throughout Southeast Asia; and conducted clandestine agent team activities and psychological operations. This book tells the story of the Teams operating out of FOB2 Kontum, near the tri-border area, in 1968–69. From recon missions over the fence to the heroic, and sometimes fatal efforts undertaken to try and rescue missing SOG members, the events are told through the words of the men themselves, supported by previously unreleased official documents. - Häftad, Engelska, 2025

DVD. Le travail de mémoire sur la répression sous les régimes dictatoriaux d’Amérique latine dans les années 60 à 80 du XXe siècle n’est pas achevé. Pour le Brésil, il faut rappeler le livre du dominicain Frei Betto sur les tortures subies par les opposants au régime et le souvenir de son frère Tito mort en France sans avoir pu se remettre de ses années de prison. Au Chili, la résistance a connu beaucoup d’exilés et de morts. En Argentine, il y a eu les assassinats de l’évêque Angelelli, du prêtre français Gabriel Longueville, des soeurs Alice Damon et Léonie Duquet et de bien d’autres.Dans le présent livre, il s’agit de l’Uruguay qui a connu une sévère dictature de 1973 à 1985. Des milliers de personnes y ont été séquestrées et torturées, y compris sexuellement. Une fois la démocratie rétablie, un groupe de femmes a commencé à se réunir à partir de 1997 pour parler des sévices subis et retrouver la dignité face à elles-mêmes.Le lecteur trouvera ici le récit de ce travail qui s’est étalé sur plusieurs années. Des 300 femmes qui se sont rencontrées dans cette entreprise de reconstruction, 28 d’entre elles ont déposé une plainte en justice, à titre personnel et collectif. Non pour crier vengeance, mais pour refuser le déni et réclamer justice, dans l’espoir que cette dénonciation guérisse une génération entière et rappelle au peuple uruguayen ses responsabilités futures. Un livre qui est à la fois un témoignage en l’honneur de ces femmes courage et une alerte pour nos consciences, sur le risque toujours possible du retour à la barbarie.L’ouvrage est accompagné du DVD « Graines de lumière », réalisé par Lucia Wainberg. - E-bokPDF, Franska, 2019

L’histoire des prêtres-ouvriers (en abrégé les PO) commence, dans les années 1940, comme une tentative pour l’Église de renouer le contact avec un monde ouvrier, alors largement éloigné d’elle, malgré les efforts des mouvements d’action catholique tels l’ACO et la JOC. L’expérience est mise en route avec l’accord de la hiérarchie catholique. Individuellement ou par petites équipes, dans le cadre de la Mission de France, de la Mission de Paris ou bien rattachés à l’évêque d’un diocèse ou à une société religieuse (dominicains, jésuites), des prêtres vont s’engager sur les grands barrages en construction ou dans les usines. Leur identité de prêtres va progressivement s’en trouver questionnée et transformée. Ils se disent « devenus prêtres autrement ». Très vite, ils se sentent en porte-à-faux par rapport à la conception traditionnelle du prêtre et ils réalisent que leur engagement les amène à une solidarité de vie et de lutte avec leurs camarades de travail. Au contraire, les évêques et Rome s’imaginent que ces prêtres doivent vivre selon le modèle et la définition classique du concile de Trente : l’homme du sacré, mis à part, l’homme du religieux, l’homme qui n’a pas à se compromettre dans les affaires du monde.Construit à partir d’une sélection de documents d’archives – ce qui en fait son originalité – cet ouvrage de référence nous fait revivre l’histoire tumultueuse des relations entre les évêques et les PO, de l’année 1950 au 31 mars 1954, date à laquelle entrera en vigueur la condamnation des prêtres ouvriers. Un affrontement et un tragique malentendu entre deux manières de penser le monde, Dieu, Jésus, de vivre l’Évangile et la pratique chrétienne, et même tout simplement de comprendre et de penser la réalité.
