This biography rescues from obscurity those in the Irish revolutionary movement who, like Sean McLoughlin, not only envisaged, but fought for, an Ireland very different to the impoverished capitalist neo-colony that would come into being after 1922.

Designer, collector, and proprietor of the contemporary curiosity shop Kabinett & Kammer, Sean Scherer shares his secrets for composing vignettes of favorite objects, showing creative ways to incorporate both cherished possessions and flea-market finds. How do you make your home come alive with personality, charm, and memory? In the introduction to Sean Scherer’s first book, Kabinett & Kammer: Creating Authentic Interiors, Anderson Cooper writes, “Scherer has a unique ability to place otherwise ordinary objects in a completely unexpected context or grouping and in so doing change the way you see them.” In Sean Scherer’s Vignettes, Scherer focuses in on the art of combining common objects into aesthetically pleasing groupings, or vignettes. Contending that a vignette can set the whole mood and tone of a room, he shows you how to use any surface in your home, from a tabletop to a bookshelf to a wall, to create lively displays of your favorite items. Beautifully illustrated with Scherer’s own photographs, the book demonstrates how to balance color, texture, and shape, and provides lessons on how to create both symmetrical and asymmetrical vignettes. Whether you are an inveterate collector or just interested in giving expression to your unique taste, Sean Scherer’s Vignettes shows you how to group the items you love in ways that can have a big impact on your interiors.

Dance showcases Sean Palfrey’s creative vision in a beautiful suite of images drawn from his photographic archive, each of them accompanied by poetic reflections on the very idea of dance.What presents itself to our minds when we hear the word ‘dance’? Movement, music and rhythm, of course. The jitterbug and the slow waltz. But what if we go beyond the obvious? Dance, the fourth volume in Sean Palfrey’s photography series, seeks to expand our conception of dance and to find and celebrate its presence in the world around us: in the graceful shape of a flower or leaf, in the elegant cursive of a spiral staircase, and in the joyfully uplifted arm of the newlywed. Palfrey is a renowned paediatrician and child health advocate who travels the world with his work and for pleasure. His fascination with people, places and stories informs both his artistic and his professional practice. In Dance, Palfrey has curated a beguiling set of pictures and poetic texts that riff on movement and stillness, rhythm and flow, and the poetry of the curve. He asks us to consider the form of the ancient, gnarled tree, or the sinuous line of the winding river; the play of light and shadow on a frescoed wall, or the luminous colours of stained glass – all these are examples of dance. It is everywhere around us: pay attention and we will find it.

The problem is that her program has uncovered the mother of all coordinated trading schemes that threatens to destroy the entire fabric of Western civilization as we know it. She enlists the help of her college confidante, Chip Merlin, and a rising star in the FBI and CIA, Sean Stamos, to bring to light the perpetrators of this incredible crime of the century. In doing so, she will reveal her own inner strengths that will enable her to focus on her priorities and shed the influence of her overbearing family. Set in the backdrop of America's Cup sailing on the Solent, the mountaintops of Switzerland, and the streets of Manhattan, this tale is one of adventure and the rising influence of women on the ancient, once male-dominated sport of sailing.

A few words from Sean's Grandma, Debbie Caterson: "I began to tell Sean stories at bedtime. He so enjoyed them, he wanted me to tell them over and over again. Since I made them up, I did not always get them right each time, and he would correct me. "Wait Grandma, " then he would correct me because he has memorized the stories from when I first told them An amazing child to say the least. Then he decided that he had an "imagination" and started to tell his own stories. "Sean Gets Lost in the Jungle" is the first one."

Sean O'Casey is one of Ireland's best-known writers. He is the most frequently performed playwright in the history of the Irish National Theatre, and his work is often revived onstage elsewhere. O'Casey is also widely studied in schools, colleges, and universities in the English-speaking world. This book offers a new contextualisation of this famous writer's work, revisiting his association with Irish nationalism, historical revisionism, and celebrated contemporaries such as W. B. Yeats and Lady Gregory. The volume also brings O'Casey's work into contact with topics including disability studies, gender and sexuality, post-colonialism, ecocriticism, and race. Sean O'Casey in Context explores a number of existing ideas about O'Casey in the light of new academic developments, and updates our understanding of this important writer by taking into account recent scholarly thinking and a range of theatrical productions from around the globe.
