The Day the Telegram Came

By: Annabel Santana

As believers, our lives can be turned upside down in an instant by unexpected crises and challenges that can shake our faith, fill us with despair, or radically transform our lives. How we respond to these challenges will be largely dependent upon what we believe, and what we believe will be dependent upon whose voice we choose to listen to. Jesus said that the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy but that He came that we might have abundant life. But how do we experience abundant life in the midst of life's painful struggles? In The Day the Telegram Came, we will take a glimpse into the lives of biblical and modern-day men and women who faced formidable challenges. Each was confronted with a choice-to believe the enemy's boisterous telegrams of doom, failure, and loss or to believe the promises of the One who came to bring us good news, to open blinded eyes, and to set the captives free. In choosing the latter, each encountered the miraculous and experienced abundant life amid seemingly impossible situations. As you read each account, you too will be challenged to trust God in the midst of your personal season of conflict, pain, and crisis. The choice is yours: telegrams of defeat or words of life-whose report will you believe?

The Great North Road

By: Annabel Dore

Newcastle, 1953. Two new mothers make a pact that will resonate for generations to come. Together Greta and Sylvia decide to flee their old lives, and abandon their newborn babies. Eventually, though, teenager Sylvia is drawn back to her estranged family – to her daughter and the boy she still loves. But then her baby vanishes, and a whole cast of characters, including Greta, comes under suspicion. The Great North Road is an epic literary voyage through the storied landscapes of northern England, through tragedy and comedy, to the darker reaches of human behaviour. Compassionate and unfailingly dramatic, it is a searing and addictive debut novel. ‘A gothic, surreal melodrama . . . perceptive and affectionate’ Ann Cleeves 'An absolute treat to read. I haven’t been so captivated by a writer’s voice since I read Kate Atkinson’s Behind the Scenes at the Museum. Annabel Doré’s going straight onto my list of favourite authors’ Kate Long, author of The Bad Mother’s Handbook

Marvell

The Writer in Public Life

By: Annabel M. Patterson

Marvell: The Writer in Public Life is substantially revised from Professor Patterson's well received 1978 study, including a new introduction and new chapter on Marvell and secret history. This important study provides an up to date perspective on a writer still thought of merely as the author of lyric and pastoral poems. It looks at both Marvell's political poetry and his often neglected political prose, revealing Marvell's life long commitment to writing about the values and standards of public life and follows his often dangerous writerly activities on behalf of freedom of conscience and constitutional government.

Pastoral and Ideology

Virgil to Valéry

By: Annabel Patterson

Patterson follows the fortunes of Virgil’s Eclogues from the Middle Ages to our own century. She argues that Virgilian pastoral spoke to the intellectuals of each place and time of their own condition. The study reinspects our standard system of periodization in literary and art history and challenges some of the current premises of modernism. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1987.

Change in Byzantine Culture in the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries

By: Aleksandr Petrovich Kazhdan,Ann Wharton Epstein,Annabel Jane Wharton

Byzantium, that dark sphere on the periphery of medieval Europe, is commonly regarded as the immutable residue of Rome's decline. In this highly original and provocative work, Alexander Kazhdan and Ann Wharton Epstein revise this traditional image by documenting the dynamic social changes that occurred during the eleventh and twelfth centuries.

Pirates of London Series 3 Book Box-Set

By: Annabel Wolfe

BOOK 1: SATAN'S SLAVE Sailing toward America, Lady Caroline Kendrick is awakened from a sound sleep to a commotion. She is hauled to the top deck where she finds herself immediately the prisoner of the infamous pirate, Satan. Lo and behold, she is startled to realize the notorious rogue is none other than Charles Somerset, a man she thought a courtier and a gentleman back in London. It appears that his polite manners were a façade, her abduction the entire purpose of the raid, and he is determined to have her one way or the other... Charles would have preferred to woo the lovely Caroline in a conventional way, but there is an advantage to having another identity and the flamboyant Satan would never deign to accept no for an answer. Her capture is just the beginning in a campaign to ultimately win the woman of his dreams in the most carnal way possible... BOOK 2: BETWEEN A RAKE AND A HARD PLACE Kidnapped and locked in a harem, Lady Cassandra is bewildered by the turn of events in her formerly ordered life, and even more so when a stranger appears and manages a daring rescue from her sexual imprisonment. Back on her way to England, she has no idea what to make of the enigmatic Mr. Ives, but she does know one thing....he is the most fascinating man she has ever encountered. Christopher Ives walks the line between two worlds. Of aristocratic birth, he still has made his own way by both necessity and inclination. Yes, his occupation involves danger, but bedding the daughter of a powerful man is pushing the edge of even his recklessness. Yet the earl's daughter is too ravishing to resist... A rakish buccaneer and a headstrong beauty battle an attraction that might just ruin them both... BOOK 3: THE DEVIL'S LAGOON Beau Fallon, Lord Auberville, has decided to flee England. It is much easier than facing his ever-growing fascination with the beautiful Lady Hannah. He isn't interested in marriage—far from it—and she is a very eligible young woman. Instead he has decided to pursue the legend of the Devil's Lagoon, a place so deadly none have ever returned... Stowing away on Lord Auberville's ship is the most audacious thing she's ever done, but Hannah is determined to find out once and for all how he feels about her. Can she seduce him and break that cool exterior? An innocent, she has no idea, but she has always craved an adventure and tropical seas and a handsome lord might just fulfill her romantic dreams... One independent aristocratic lady and an enigmatic spy travel south together into an erotic journey of both love and danger.

Reading Holinshed's Chronicles

Reading Holinshed's Chronicles

By: Annabel Patterson

Reading Holinshed's Chronicles is the first major study of the greatest of the Elizabethan chronicles. Holinshed's Chronicles—a massive history of England, Scotland, and Ireland—has been traditionally read as the source material for many of Shakespeare's plays or as an archaic form of history-writing. Annabel Patterson insists that the Chronicles be read in their own right as an important and inventive cultural history. Although we know it by the name of Raphael Holinshed, editor and major compiler of the 1577 edition, the Chronicles was the work of a group, a collaboration between antiquarians, clergymen, members of parliament, poets, publishers, and booksellers. Through a detailed reading, Patterson argues that the Chronicles convey rich insights into the way the Elizabethan middle class understood their society. Responding to the crisis of disunity which resulted from the Reformation, the authors of the Chronicles embodied and encouraged an ideal of justice, what we would now call liberalism, that extended beyond the writing of history into the realms of politics, law, economics, citizenship, class, and gender. Also, since the second edition of 1587 was called in by the Privy Council and revised under supervision, the work constitutes an important test case for the history of early modern censorship. An essential book for all students of Tudor history and literature, Reading Holinshed's Chronicles brings into full view a long misunderstood masterpiece of sixteenth-century English culture.

The Prose Works of Andrew Marvell: 1676-1678

The Prose Works of Andrew Marvell: 1676-1678

By: Professor Annabel Patterson,Andrew Marvell,Annabel M. Patterson

Andrew Marvell (1621-78) is best known today as the author of a handful of exquisite lyrics and provocative political poems. In his own time, however, Marvell was famous for his brilliant prose interventions in the major issues of the Restoration, religious toleration, and what he called "arbitrary" as distinct from parliamentary government. This is the first modern edition of all Marvell's prose pamphlets, complete with introductions and annotation explaining the historical context. Four major scholars of the Restoration era have collaborated to produce this truly Anglo-American edition. From the Rehearsal Transpros'd, a serio-comic best-seller which appeared with tacit permission from Charles II himself, through the documentary Account of the Growth of Popery and Arbitrary Government, Marvell established himself not only as a model of liberal thought for the eighteenth century but also as an irresistible new voice in political polemic, wittier, more literary, and hence more readable than his contemporaries.

A memoir of love, waxwings and rewilding

By: Annabel Christie

Annabel Christie is wracked by guilt. It was rediscovering her late father’s letter after thirty years, which finally did it. A thunderbolt to Annabel’s conscience, the letter was a reminder of her idyllic childhood spent in a wonderful, wild garden, her lost love for nature, and the broken bond between father and daughter.
