And that’s the moment when I leave. The moment when the jokes fail us. When I fail. I fail. This precise moment here, look, see with your ears. The Fool leaves King Lear before the blinding. Before the killing starts. Before the ice-creams in the interval. In his new solo work, playwright Tim Crouch draws on ideas of virtual reality to send the Fool back to the future of the play that he left. Back to a world without moral leadership or integrity; a world where wealth covers vice; where the poor are dehumanised; where the jokes fall flat; where live art has become the privilege of the few. Truth’s a Dog Must to Kennel is a daringly unaccommodating piece of theatre that switches between scathingly funny stand-up and an audacious act of collective imagining. King Lear meets stand-up meets the metaverse. Crouch’s previous celebrated works include An Oak Tree, The Author, Adler & Gibb, Total Immediate Collective Imminent Terrestrial Salvation, and Beginners. This edition was published to coincide with the production at The Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh in August 2022.

"Before daybreak the next morning, Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray." (Mark 1:35) If Jesus considered it worthwhile to spend quiet time alone with the Father, then it's a good sign he was completely aware of the weight the world places on a person and the need to be ready with the insight that a few moments of prayer and reflection provides. When you know from the start of your day that the enemy will attack, but you are correctly aligned with God's guidance and protection, it makes all the difference in how you meet the challenges. I encourage you to start your day with God-a day that doesn't start with a spiritual boost is a day destined for trouble. This book will encourage you to prepare your heart and mind for whatever comes and it will help to give you peace and joy in the process; it's a miracle of God's power that happens when you prioritize him
The Christmas Crib or Nativity Scene appears in churches every Christmas, but can also been seen in many shops and private houses. This book examines the history of the crib from gospel times to today and is the first full history written on the subject in the UK for nearly 100 years. The book begins with the Gospel narratives and the trail of the original crib or manger of Jesus. It also covers the history of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem and the creation of the feast day of Christmas. It then deals with artistic depictions and church liturgy up to the time of St Francis of Assisi showing how the Christmas scene was imagined. The story of St Francis is fully covered along with the greater importance attached to Christmas following his service at Greccio. The first large nativity groups were set up in churches, and we see how these early cribs developed through to the Reformation. After the Counter Reformation people were encouraged, especially by the Franciscans and Jesuits, to have cribs in their houses. Cribs then developed into many different styles throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In the twentieth century, crib societies were set up, and home crafting encouraged ‘build your own’ cribs in many forms and using many different materials.

How much suffering can a kind heart endure? In Poor Folk, Fyodor Dostoevsky delivers a deeply moving epistolary novel that reveals the struggles of the impoverished through an intimate exchange of letters. Makar Devushkin, a poor government clerk, finds solace in his correspondence with Varvara Dobroselova, a young woman also trapped in a life of hardship. Their letters-filled with love, despair, and longing-reveal the pain of social isolation and the quiet endurance of those who live in poverty. As Makar sacrifices his own well-being to support Varvara, his dignity is tested against the harsh realities of an uncaring society.

Noted novelist and essayist Tim MacGabhann's debut collection demonstrates a rare confidence and coherence. These formally assured and blackly funny poems chart the course of addiction and recovery, contemplating the injuries a body and mind can sustain, and what joys we find in these darker spaces in the shape of friendship, music, and community. The spare, stark poems of love and survival in Found in a Context of Destruction open windows on rarely-seen vistas, bringing us on a delirious but vividly captured journey from Ireland to Mexico.
"He came into the very world he created, but the world didn't recognize him. He came to his own people, and even they rejected him. But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God." (John 1:10-12) Jesus didn't fit in. If he walked with us today he wouldn't belong to any denomination or popular charitable organization; Jesus was the Son of God-he defied convention and refused labels. He said he didn't come to judge the world, but to save it He said he came to serve, not to be served. He loved his enemies. Jesus was nothing like the religious leaders of his day-in fact most of the time when he was angry it was with them for twisting the words of God to fit their own agendas at the expense of the people. He lived in the real world; he sat in the dirt with beggars, walked along the road with tax collectors, sailed with fishermen, talked with women and children, and ate with sinners. He loved people where they were because . . . that's where they were Unlikely King is a daily devotional for real people. It applies God's Word to regular everyday life experiences that will connect and resonate with believers everywhere. Let's go
The Roman legions were the formidable, highly organised and welldisciplined backbone of the Roman army, vital to maintaining order and control of the borders of the Empire and its subjugated peoples. The fortresses that were the bases of the legions reflected their values: purposeful, hierarchical and an intimidating display of Roman culture. But what was it like to live in one of these fortresses? What was the everyday experience of the legionary, centurion and commander? Life in a Roman Legionary Fortress provides a fascinating insight into the inner mechanisms of the castrum and the people who maintained it. Using the fortresses at Chester, York, Caerleon and across the Empire, Tim Copeland reconstructs the complex workings of these legionary camps and provides readers with the archaeological and literary evidence that gives us an insight into life behind the high walls.
What can you write about Abergavenny that hasn’t already been written? Quite a lot, as local author Tim Butters poignantly proves in A–Z of Abergavenny. The shadows surrounding local legends are investigated and new light is cast on familiar subjects in a book that barely pauses for breath as it thunders from A to Z in a no-holds-barred roller coaster ride. This fascinating new book brings the past to life and contrasts it with the present as readers embark on a twenty-six-step voyage of discovery to view the buildings, landmarks, streets and people who helped put this magical Monmouthshire market town on the map. Explore the mystery behind Abergavenny’s underground tunnels, prepare to be baffled by the bizarre tribe who founded a mountainside settlement, shudder at the Spanish serial killer who murdered an entire family, and marvel in awe at the Old Testament preacher who founded an Anglo-Catholic underworld in the town. This fully illustrated encyclopedia will lead you off the beaten track, down the wayward path, and into a past where no stone is left unturned.
Imagine living in the future in a world already damaged by humankind, a world where resources are insufficient to meet everyone's basic needs and where a chaotic climate makes life precarious. Then imagine looking back into the past, back to our own time and assessing the ethics of the early twenty-first century. "Ethics for a Broken World" imagines how the future might judge us and how living in a time of global environmental degradation might utterly reshape the politics and ethics of the future. This book is presented as a series of history of philosophy lectures given in the future, studying the classic texts from a past age of affluence, our own time. The central ethical questions of our time are shown to look very different from the perspective of a ruined world. The aim of "Ethics for a Broken" World is to look at our present with the benefit of hindsight - to reimagine contemporary philosophy in an historical context - and to highlight the contingency of our own moral and political ideals.
