The book comes with an accompanying CD which includes the much-loved recording of the song by Louis Armstrong and an exclusive reading by Sophie Aldred.
This is no ordinary novel. An encyclopedia of memory - from A to Z - ""The End of the World Book"" deftly intertwines fiction, memoir, and cultural history, reimagining the story of the world and one man's life as they both hurtle toward a frightening future. Alistair McCartney's alphabetical guide to the apocalypse layers images like a prose poem, building from Aristotle to da Vinci, hip-hop to lederhosen, plagues to zippers, while barreling from antiquity to the present.In this profound book about mortality, McCartney composes an irreverent archive of philosophical obsessions and homoerotic fixations, demonstrating the difficulty of separating what is real from what is imagined.The most significant art form of the decade known as the 1970s was undoubtedly macrame, that coarse lacework produced by weaving cords into a pattern. However, some contest this and argue that, on the contrary, mime was the greatest cultural achievement of the decade: mime, that subtle art form in which people with white pancake makeup on their faces, with black markings on their lips and around their eyes, dressed in overalls and horizontally striped T-shirts, brilliantly expressed something, anything, by virtue of movement and facial expression alone, that is to say, mutely, as if their tongues had been cut out of their heads. Although I admire mime...I still believe macrame is the higher and purer art form.In the late 1970s, at the height of macrame's popularity...while other children made charming macrame potholders for their mothers, and macrame owls that would serve as tasteful wall hangings, for my mother, using off-white wool, I made a realistic macrame psyche. - excerpt from ""The End of the World Book"".
A mass market poetry book featuring poems (most of which have never been published) from 30 of the best known peots around, including Roger McGough, Brian Patten, Carol Ann Duffy, and James Berry to name but a few. The perfect book to spend a World Book Day 1.00 pound voucher on.

A snowstorm, a highway, a lonely hotel... Devastated by the deaths of her parents and disillusioned with life, Caroline Daynes is in America trying to connect with their memory. Travelling to her mother's hometown of Williamsfield in Pennsylvania, she is caught in a snowstorm and forced to stop at The Egress hotel - somewhere she'd planned to visit as her parents honeymooned there. From the moment she sets foot inside the lobby and meets the surly receptionist, she realises this is a hotel like no other. Charming and unique, it seems lost in time with a whole cast of compelling characters sheltering behind closed doors. As the storm deepens, so does the mystery of The Egress. Who are these people she's stranded with and what secrets do they hide? In a situation that's becoming increasingly nightmarish, is it possible to find solace?
A terrible plague has been loosed upon the earth. In the course of one night, mankind teeters on the brink of extinction. Fighting through gathering hordes of undead, a group of friends brave military checkpoints, armed civilians, and forced allegiances in an attempt to reach loved ones. Thwarted at every turn, they press forward. But taking roads less traveled, could cost them everything.
The Sergeant posted the officers to their beats and patrols, handing Sandi a copy of a message. "Go see Mrs Delaney at that address. Sort her out, there's a good girl," he said. She read the message. Mrs Delaney was an elderly lady who was allegedly suffering from dementia. Police would receive an average of eight calls a week from her, and each time it involved little green men or strange animals. "Sarge, she's a nutter " she complained. "She has a problem, go see her and make sure it's only in her mind. Assume nothing." What was it really like policing the East End of London in the 1970s?What was it like for those women who now had parity (on paper) with their male colleagues and so were expected to do the same 'job' - just like the men?How tough was it to exist in what was a Man's World up until the beginning of that decade?The 1970s was a time of great change. Sir Robert Mark was the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police and took it as a personal crusade to stamp out corruption within the ranks.The pay had yet to be reviewed and brought into line with other professions, so there was a huge drain of men and women seeking better remuneration for less risk on a daily basis.'Best Practice' was not yet a phrase used in earnest by employers, especially within a police force that paid poorly and expected long hours and great commitment from those employed to protect the Metropolis. It was hardly surprising that there were a few who sought to improve their financial lot but unauthorised means.Indeed, some practices were simply bad at best and borderline criminal at worst. Attitudes and values had to be urgently reshaped, not by those who had worked their way up within the existing system, but by those now joining and preparing to be tomorrow's commanders.Sandi Arnold was just one such young woman who faced the automatic stereotype that - 'all police women are lesbians' or 'all police women can't do the job properly'.She is thrown into the deep end and expected not just to swim, but to swim as well as the men, if not better. Women often had to work twice as hard just to be accepted.Join her on her journey along with a host of characters - some good, some bad and some simply hilarious. Watch as she deals with dead bodies, fleeing flashers and little old ladies being plagued by 'little green men'.Laugh with her at some of the silliest situations, cry with her when the man she loves is the victim of a terrorist attack and is feared dead. Share her frustrations and her successes. Most of all, try to understand how things were.In the days before political correctness, the language is earthy and understandable, but above all, it is as real as it can be. This is a work of fiction, but in name only
