In the Italian city of Naples, senior police officer Captain Natalia Monte is called to investigate the theft of a painting from the medieval Church of San Domenico Maggiore. No sooner is the investigation underway than the city is rocked by a much graver crime: the murder of a talented and much-loved female violinist, known across the city and beyond. As Captain Monte and her fellow Carabinieri interview close friends and family of the victim, they sense all around them the dark forces of Naples' organised crime bosses, the Camorra. It seems that anyone could be a suspect and as Monte struggles to keep her professional and her personal dealings from becoming dangerously intertwined, the plot reaches a dramatic conclusion. This book provides a thrilling read and effectively contrasts the serene beauty of Naples and the surrounding area with its gruesome and violent underworld.

In his fifth month of 'delving' during his year-long sabbatical in 1999, newspaper publisher Tim Brown realizes something odd is going on that may impact him and his business. And it may relate to the much bigger, and possibly darker, 'Project Sweetland' that he and his team at the newspaper are looking into. Can he move forward in directions he had not anticipated, despite pugnacious opposition?

"Jan La Perle dream-walks through tenderness, loneliness, and a house-full of troubled love. Birds and a fast mile, a daughter's curious questions, and the small daily adventures of her learning make magic, though threats to its tendrils of peace come close and stay too long. Yet "even when you talk about feeling crazy, your letters / are so calm," a friend says in one of the poems: such is the paradoxical wonder of this collection." -Lisa Lewis"Maybe The Land Sings Back is a holy book. It sings subtly with great attention and wonder, and dread, of being alive, of keeping a lamp lit-of moment to momentous to minor to flight-when so much has fallen into darkness. These poems remind us to soak up what's given and to reach kindly/sadly for all that's been taken. I am taken with this book. It is so gentle and sobering, and...colossally lonesome, ferociously daring. Its beauty is frightening. Its nightmares are possibilities. I feel a little closer to the Vast by these poems. This is a book I'll keep near me." -Matt Hart

A young boy from the housing estates comes across a copse of old oaks to which he can escape, as to an oasis of calm. Although he may forget about it once he becomes an adult and "puts aside the things of childhood," it will remain a locus of balance, decades later, for a single mother struggling with the difficulties of raising the child she loves. A husband, on the lip of an ugly divorce, drives across town in the middle of the night to rescue his wife, abandoned by her lover, and then -- as she falls asleep in the car -- takes the long way home, to prolong a moment such as he has not experienced in years. An elderly doctor, self-diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, makes use of the few precious moments of consciousness granted him each morning to pass on to his grandson what he has learned about life and living responsibly. Loss, and permanence, the ephemeral and the eternal, are common themes of Jan Balab n's collection of short stories Maybe We're Leaving, presented here in the English translation of Charles S. Kraszewski. With psychological insight that rivals the great novels of Fyodor Dostoevsky, the twenty-one linked narratives that make up the collection present us with everyday people, with everyday problems -- and teach us to love and respect the former, and bear the latter.Translation of this book was supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic.

The first fully illustrated and comprehensive introduction to May Morris's work as an artist, designer and embroiderer, published in association with the V&A. May Morris (1862–1938), younger daughter of William Morris, was a significant figure in the British Arts and Crafts movement and a pioneer of ‘art embroidery’. She ran the embroidery department of Morris & Co., as well as designing textiles, wallpapers and jewellery. May was also an influential teacher and lectured in the UK and America. May Morris: Arts & Crafts Designer is the first publication to present the full range of May Morris’s work and reveals her exceptional skill and originality. It draws together her designs, exquisite embroideries, watercolours, costume and jewellery from museums around the world, and in particular the rich collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum and the William Morris Gallery, London. The book contains more than 180 items in colour and detailed information on their materials and provenance compiled by leading experts. There are also new insights into May’s personal life and relationships, her social activism and her support for other craftswomen. This authoritative and illuminating study places May Morris, whose reputation has been overshadowed by that of her father, firmly among the leading British designer-makers of the Arts and Crafts movement.
Bodies of Maize, Eaters of Grain: Comparing material worlds, metaphor and the agency of art in the Preclassic Maya and Mycenaean early civilisations
Bodies of Maize, Eaters of Grain provides a comparative study of the earliest urban civilisations of the Maya lowlands and the Greek mainland. It builds upon earlier comparative studies by Gordon Childe, Robert Adams and Bruce Trigger, extending their work into new directions. Specifically, the focus lies on the art styles of the Late Preclassic lowland Maya and Mycenaean Greece. The approach used here seeks to combine more traditional iconographic approaches with more recent models on metaphor and the social agency of things. Comparing Maya and Mycenaean art styles through the three aspects of metaphor, semiotics and praxis, their differences and similarities are made clear. The book shows art to have played a more active role in the development of the earliest urban civilisations, rather than passively reflecting economic and political trends. In that way, the social role of art provides a key to understanding the relations between the different factors in the development of the two societies, as they played out at different temporal and geographical scales. To understand this, the notion of distinct Maya and Mycenaean ‘material worlds’, involving both materials and ideas, is proposed, with consequences for models about the earliest urban civilisations in general.
