Leick, Gwendolyn
Mesopotamia : the invention of the city Gwendolyn Leick - Princeton, N.J. : Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic, 2004. - 360 pages : illustrations ; 19.5 cm
This book reveal[s] everyday life as it was in ten long-lost Mesopotamian cities, beginning with Eridu, the Mesopotamian Eden, and ending with Babylon, the first true metropolis: cosmopolitan, decadent, multicultural and the last centre of a dying civilization. [In the book, the author] paints a ... picture of the lives of Mesopotamians - from poets and priests to business - women and divorcees - and the incredible achievements of their advanced and imaginative society
It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn't much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and a father of three school-age children. While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son, Albus, must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.
