Ten Nights In A Bar-Room, And What I Saw There

Zur Geschichte des öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunks in Deutschland

Die (Re-)Konstruktion eines demokratischen Rundfunks in Deutschland nach 1945 und die Verteidigung des öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunks gegen staatliche Begehrlichkeiten

Jeffrey Archer is one of my literary heroes.

Turn a Blind Eye

This is a magnificent tale of love, forgiveness, hope, the costs of magic, and the complexities of family, all told with such poetry, such strange and subtle horrors, and set in a world so finely etched in bizarre and beautiful detail, I haven&#8217;t stopped thinking about it for days. It&#8217;s all I can do not to flip right back to the beginning and start reading all over again.&#8212;Kate Milford, New York Times best-selling author of the Greenglass House seriesChewins weaves a magical, gothic jewel of a tale about love, loss, and the bonds of sisterhood. Readers will be drawn into this darkly beautiful world from the very first page as they explore the mysteries of Straygarden Place and slip into the sinister silver grass alongside its heroines.&#8212;R. M. Romero, Carnegie Medal&#8211;nominated author of The Dollmaker of KrakowOne of the most imaginative novels I have ever read, The Sisters of Straygarden Place is lush, decadent, and impossible to put down. Hayley Chewins kept my heart pounding from beginning to end, and her vivid worldbuilding had me peeking around corners to see what dark secrets she&#8217;d hidden there. Just like the Ballastian sisters, readers will not be able to leave Straygarden Place until they reach the very last page.&#8212;Christina Soontornvat, author of A Wish in the DarkAddictive, lush, and brimming with imagination. Chewins delivers a haunting tale of secrets, family, and love, where nothing is as it seems and an old and unsettling magic rules the world. Perfect for fans of Frances Hardinge, The Sisters of Straygarden Place is sure to keep young readers riveted long past their bedtimes.&#8212;K. A. Reynolds, author of The Spinner of DreamsLyrical and imaginative, rich and riveting. This is Hayley Chewins at her best, writing about magical girls with secrets and sisters who rise above the odds. An absolute must-read!&#8212;Christine Day, author of I Can Make This Promise, an American Indian Youth Literature Award Honor BookChewins&#8217; prose is exquisite, her eerie concepts heart-wrenching...Superb, spooky, and unforgettable.&#8212;Kirkus Reviews (starred review)Chewins (The Turnaway Girls) weaves a vivid, otherworldly tale of family and secrets, with a gothic setting that serves as a character in its own right. Through themes of identity, forgiveness, and longing, Mayhap&#8217;s unpredictable quest becomes intensely personal, especially as the sisters reinvent their familial relationship.&#8212;Publishers Weekly (starred review)A strong opening and consistent sense of urgency makes this an ideal choice for reluctant readers interested in slightly spooky fantasy. Give to fans of Neil Gaiman&#8217;s Coraline, Kenneth Oppel&#8217;s The Nest, or The House in Poplar Wood by K.E. Ormsbee.&#8212;School Library JournalChewins (The Turnaway Girls, BCCB 10/18) employs captivating, atmospheric prose that smoothly draws the thread of the story. Readers who enjoyed the imaginative variety and scarier elements of Valente&#8217;s Fairyland series will be drawn to this darkly, gloriously weird tale with sisterhood at its heart.&#8212;Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
