Fillide Melandroni was labelled 'Scandalous Courtesan' by the Vatican. Papal Guards were sent out onto the streets to discourage women like her. All of Rome was in uproar but this was a climate where she flourished together with artists like Caravaggio, Rubens and the architect of Rome's renaissance Bernini. She knew her beauty and skills could take her a certain distance. But she demanded more. Fillide wanted respect, position and power - without having to marry some 'ugly old man' as one of her friends put it. There were ways and means, she mixed with supremely gifted men like Caravaggio and Rubens. Others were rotten and corrupt like the Borgia Pope and Cesare Borgia himself. Fillide could outwit them all when she needed to. "No, I won't repent," she told priests. "I can help you," she told a leader of the College of Cardinals. "Together we will be rich and happy," she told her lover Sandro - because she had an idea. An idea that would make money for both of them. But it could also help the poor, protect the vulnerable on the streets they came from. Over the years her idea has gone down dark and dangerous roads but it still survives today... known as Cosa Nostra, or Mafia. Look closely into the hidden depths of that organisation and four centuries later you can still see the hand of Fillide Melandroni.

Charlotte temple unfolds as a poignant tale of innocence, temptation, and the consequences of misplaced trust. Set in a society governed by rigid moral codes, the story follows a young woman whose sheltered upbringing leaves her vulnerable to the allure of romantic promises and the harsh realities that follow. Beginning within the calm confines of a boarding school and extending into a world marked by deception and moral conflict, the narrative portrays her descent from innocence to despair as she grapples with betrayal and social condemnation. Through its emotional depth and moral focus, the novel reflects on the limited choices afforded to women, the dangers of manipulation, and the fragility of reputation in a judgmental world. It serves as both a sentimental tragedy and a cautionary reflection on virtue, compassion, and the forces that shape personal downfall. The gentle realism and moral sensitivity of the story make it a lasting exploration of youthful vulnerability and the cost of defying societal expectations.

The first book to tell the visual story of the USSR’s war against religion of all denominations, from the 1917 revolution to its fall in 1991 ‘We’ve finished the earthly tsars and we’re coming for the heavenly ones!’. Thus spoke the Soviet Union’s first atheist propagandists as they declared war on ‘the opium of the people’ across the USSR. Soviet atheism is the great lost subject of the 20th century. Pope Pius XI led a ‘crusade of prayer’ against it. George Orwell satirised it in Animal Farm. The Nazis called it a Jewish plot. Franklin D Roosevelt pressured Stalin to abandon it. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn blamed it for Russia’s catastrophes. Ronald Reagan put it at the core of his ‘Evil Empire’ speech. And yet, because the Soviet Union promoted atheism almost entirely for domestic consumption, decades’ worth of arcane and astonishing antireligious imagery remains unknown in the West. Drawing on the early Soviet atheist magazines Godless and Godless at the Machine, and post-war posters by Communist Party publishers, Roland Elliott Brown presents an unsettling tour of atheist ideology in the USSR. Here are uncanny, imaginative and downright blasphemous visions from the very guts of the Soviet atheist apparatus: sinister priests rub shoulders with cross-bearing colonial torturers, greedy mullahs, a cyclopean Jehovah, and a crypto-fascist Jesus; Russian cosmonauts mock God from space while vigilant border guards nab American Bible smugglers. Godless Utopia is the occult grimoire of a lost socialist anti-theology.
