In this profoundly affecting memoir from the internationally renowned author of "The Caged Virgin", Ayaan Hirsi Ali tells her astonishing life story, from her traditional Muslim childhood in Somalia, Saudi Arabia, and Kenya, to her intellectual awakening and activism in the Netherlands, and her current life under armed guard in the West. One of today`s most admired and controversial political figures, Ayaan Hirsi Ali burst into international headlines following an Islamist`s murder of her colleague, Theo van Gogh, with whom she made the movie "Submission". Infidel is the eagerly awaited story of the coming of age of this elegant, distinguished - and sometimes reviled - political superstar and champion of free speech. With a gimlet eye...
As a boy, Gregory Reeves accepts the endless journeying and poverty which is his family`s lot, never questioning the validity of his preacher father`s philosophy of life - the Infinite Plan. But, as manhood approaches, Gregory finds himself increasingly possessed by a yearning to escape. Hankering after worldly wealth, he longs to break away from the barrio, the teeming Hispanic ghetto of downtown Los Angeles where his family has finally settled. Gregory`s quest takes him first to the killing fields of Vietnam, and then to law school from where he pitches headlong into a hedonistic pursuit of the American Dream.
Japanese gardens have long been admired for their capacity to improve on nature through impeccable design, detail and composition, properties that elevate them from mere gardens to sacred spaces. Infinite Spaces is a remarkable reflection of the Japanese garden, drawing on extracts from the Sakuteiki - an eleventh-century text that distills centuries of garden design - and pairing them with inspiring images from Sadao Hibi, one of Japan`s best-known photographers.
