Beneath the Shimmer

Around us beautiful things shine.

An ocean under moonlight.

Diamonds on the curve of a neck.

A lover’s eyes through candlelight.

All glints between the shadows.

We choose whether to step inside.

To meet the story.

Darkness. Sorrow. Great radiance.

Whatever lies amid the light.

We can find it.

It depends only on whether we pause

and look

beneath the shimmer.

The Portuguese Lady’s Earrings

The Portuguese Lady’s Earrings covers the rich tapestry of the de Oliveira Evora family. Their rise to power and wealth began with their role in the Portuguese Empire, the Church predominantly through Jesuits, and with military regimes. Jewish money financed the family’s business from the spice trade to trading people and ownership of sugar plantations in Brazil.

In 1940, Portugal was under the dictatorship of President Antonio de Oliveira Salazar who was ambivalent about Jewish refugees flooding Lisbon. Sitting on the Atlantic, the City on the Tagus from where explorers launched the ‘Age of Discovery’ became a perfect port to flee from the Nazis.

The Establishment de Oliveira Evora family remained well entrenched in the business community and to a lesser extent with the Salazar government. It, however, maintained a strong relationship with the country’s centuries old established, successful and integrated Jewish community.

Follow Lia Maria who entwines herself with Tascha, a Jewish architectural student from Odessa; Olga Sara, the child of Tascha and Lia Maria, who is reared by her great uncle in Sao Paulo, Brazil after her mother disappears in Madeira; and Olga Sara’s son Carlos, born out of wedlock, who is sent to boarding school in England.

The Portuguese Lady’s Earrings elaborates on the secrecy that surrounds the family’s historical relationship with the Jewish community and indeed Olga Sara’s heritage.

From the Inside

The first nine weeks of the Black Summer fires in the Upper Murray

A personal view of the impact of the 2019/20 Green Valley Bushfire on the Newnhams’ home, family, and community from inside the fire zone in Walwa, Upper Murray, Australia.

Isolated from friends and family and enmeshed in the fight to defend her family’s farm from the 2019/2020 Black Summer fires, Janice Newnham was moved to document and communicate the situation to the outside world via Facebook posts.

It started as a need to quickly reassure worried friends and family, but soon became a mental health exercise, a necessity to unload by uploading to Facebook!

This book represents the first nine weeks of an ongoing story of the impact of bushfire disaster on a small rural community and is representative of many Australian farmers and rural communities during an unprecedented bushfire season: The Black Summer.

White Lies

Where there is smoke

Based on a true story, White Lies (Where there is smoke…) is set in ‘God’s Own Country’, in Walwa, Northeast Victoria.

A fiery car wreck extinguishes the life of Raymond (Dickie) White’s devoted wife and catapults him to the attention of enthusiastic police investigators and newspaper journalists and simultaneously reignites the local rumour mill.

Is he the victim of small-town gossip, ultimately hounded to death by misinterpretations of his actions? Or is he a cunning, scheming individual who manipulates situations and takes advantage of innocents to achieve his ambition of owning his own farm?

His plans unravel as his web of lies is unpicked by the persistent, dedicated investigations of police utilising innovative forensic techniques and insightful deductions. As the net closes around him, he is left with only one option for escape.

Old Retail, New Retail, WTF?

Humans were born to shop.

That’s why retailing became the biggest industry globally.

Today, retailing is an industry in crisis, undergoing massive disruption from online marketplaces like Amazon and Alibaba. Asia is emerging as a retail powerhouse, yet most retailers are focused on the US, UK and Europe.

7 billion shoppers don’t see things that way, but retailers are full of doom and gloom?
What is going to happen to their industry?

Roy Tavenor asks the same question – with a bit of twist.

WTF – What’s The Future of retail.

This is a book written by a realist, rather than a futurist, and draws on nearly 50 years of experience, learning from the past, to better understand the future.

For retailers and shoppers alike, there is good news.

Retail is not dying – just changing.
