North of dawn : a novel / by Farah, Nuruddin,1945-author.(CARDINAL)517803;
A couple's tranquil life abroad is irrevocably transformed by the arrival of their son's widow and children, in the latest from Somalia's most celebrated novelist. For decades, Gacalo and Mugdi have lived in Oslo, where they've led a peaceful, largely assimilated life and raised two children. Their beloved son, Dhaqaneh, however, is driven by feelings of alienation to jihadism in Somalia, where he kills himself in a suicide attack. The couple reluctantly offers a haven to his family. But on arrival in Oslo, their daughter-in-law cloaks herself even more deeply in religion, while her children hunger for the freedoms of their new homeland, a rift that will have lifealtering consequences for the entire family. Set against the backdrop of real events, North of Dawn is a provocative, devastating story of love, loyalty, and national identity that asks whether it is ever possible to escape a legacy of violence - and if so, at what cost.Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed.

Volume two "The Idea of our Historic and Cultural Patrimony" comprises studies on the patrimonial aspects that frequently are studied separately, although part of the rich natural and historic heritage that makes Mexico unique: volcanoes and corn; pyramids and churches; the icon of the virgin in which many Mexicans deposit their faith and destiny, the mineral resources, oil, the loved places, the beaches and the haciendas. Only the first three of the 6 volumes have been published. The remaining 2 other titles are: "La formación geográfica de México" (tomo I) and "La antropología y el patrimonio cultural de México" (tomo III).
