SELECTED FOR STYLIST'S FICTION YOU CAN'T MISS IN 2022 - 'AN ESSENTIAL READ' NAMED AS A BOOK OF 2022 BY ESQUIRE, STYLIST, SHEERLUXE AND FOYLES 'A stone-cold masterpiece by a shocking new talent' OLIVIA LAING 'Pure delight ... A queer romance novel like no other' TATLER It's four in the morning, and our narrator is walking home from the club when they realise that it's February 29th – the birthday of the man who was something like their first love. Piecing together art, letters and memory, they set about trying to write the story of a doomed affair that first sparked and burned a decade ago. Ten years earlier, and our young narrator and a boy named Thomas James fall into bed with one another over the summer of their graduation. Their ensuing affair, with its violent, animal intensity and its intoxicating and toxic power play will initiate a dance of repulsion and attraction that will cross years, span continents, drag in countless victims – and culminate in terrible betrayal. At Certain Points We Touch is a story of first love and last rites, conjured against a vivid backdrop of London, San Francisco and New York – a riotous, razor-sharp coming-of-age story that marks the arrival of an extraordinary new talent. 'Lauren John Joseph writes with such wit, glamour, and style! I haven't read a book that so powerfully evokes what it's like to be a wild young artist among other wild young artists since the Bright Young Things' TORREY PETERS, author of Detransition, Baby 'Screamingly funny, scandalously hot, opulent, deep - a devastating torch song of obsession and excess' JEREMY ATHERTON LIN, author of Gay Bar 'Lauren's debut novel is so exciting. The writing is so fresh, funny and gripping - and carries the trademark wit that I have always loved from Lauren' TRAVIS ALABANZA 'The struggle to find ones place in the world as an artist and lover, creating self and culture as you go along - At Certain Points We Touch captures this fleeting, dazzling moment with glamour and heart' MICHELLE TEA

Empire Builders

An Illustrated History of the Rise and Fall of Cleveland's Van Sweringen Brothers

By: Lauren R. Pacini

Empire Builders tells the story of Oris P. and Mantis J. Sweringen, two brothers from Wooster, Ohio, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although they were born into abject poverty, Oris was an extraordinary visionary who, with the help of his devoted younger brother, amassed a vast fortune in real estate and railroad developments. Their major breakthrough came in 1913 with the establishment of Shaker Heights, an affluent garden suburb connected by a brand-new interurban railroad to the booming midwestern metropolis of Cleveland. The Van Sweringens' ascension after Shaker Heights was meteoric, and it culminated with the construction of the 52-story Terminal Tower in downtown Cleveland in 1927. However, the country's economy came crashing down after the 1929 stock market collapse, and their empire crumbled around them. Empire Builders is the first new biography of the Van Sweringen brothers in more than twenty years. In it, architectural photographer and local history author Lauren R. Pacini tells the remarkable story of the Van Sweringen brothers through words and images. This richly illustrated volume features more than 150 new photographs of the still-fabulous historic homes the brothers built throughout greater Cleveland. The foreword is written by John J. Grabowski.

Diablo Lake Complete Collection

Three Witchy Romance Novels

By: Lauren Dane

A town founded by witches and governed by werewolves: All three books in New York Times bestselling author Lauren Dane’s Diablo Lake series, available together for the first time! Moon Struck Three years ago, Katie Faith Grady left Diablo Lake, heartbroken and humiliated by a man who didn’t deserve her in the first place. Her return—to help run her family’s soda fountain while her dad recovers from a heart attack—awakens the powerful magic that is her birthright. It also puts her directly in the path of a certain werewolf she’s never been able to forget. Deputy Jace Dooley is a lot of things: alpha wolf, former bad boy, excellent mechanic. His new role of neighbor to the beautiful witch he’s been in love with since forever is a welcome plot twist…but Jace’s chief instinct is to protect. And a witch with as much raw power as Katie won’t be claimed on anyone’s terms but her own. Protected The powerful witches of Diablo Lake are taking back control. No longer will they be pawns in the town’s misguided power plays. Chosen to lead the charge, Aimee Benton can’t possibly fall for a werewolf—especially a Pack Alpha. Problem is, Mac Pembry is as irresistible as he is infuriating. One touch of Aimee’s powerful magic and Mac immediately needs more. Not only is his witch incredibly smart, but her quiet strength and empathetic heart soothe both wolf and man. But when the Pembry pack breaks a sacred law, Aimee shuts him out. This time the wolves have gone too far. A war is brewing in Diablo Lake, and the balance of magic that sustains the town might be lost forever… Awakened Ruby Thorne can’t think of a better time of year to come back for good and open the health clinic she’s been planning for the last six years. This witch is exactly where she’s supposed to be. So it’s not much of a surprise that he comes back into her path just like he was meant to… Damon Dooley has spent the last few years learning how to run the pack at his older brother’s right hand. And yet, Ruby has returned. Bound to one another heart and soul, both committed to what’s best for Diablo Lake, Ruby backs Damon as he pushes for much-needed change. But when something falls into Ruby’s lap and she learns the whole, terrible truth, secrets need to be spilled. How—and by whom—becomes the only question.

Transitional Justice and the ‘Disappeared’ of Northern Ireland

Transitional Justice and the ‘Disappeared’ of Northern Ireland

Silence, Memory, and the Construction of the Past

By: Lauren Dempster

This book employs a transitional justice lens to address the ‘disappearances’ that occurred during the Northern Ireland conflict – or ‘Troubles’ – and the post-conflict response to these ‘disappearances.’ Despite an extensive literature around ‘dealing with the past’ in Northern Ireland, as well as a substantial body of scholarship on ‘disappearances’ in other national contexts, there has been little scholarly scrutiny of ‘disappearances’ in post-conflict Northern Ireland. Although the Good Friday Agreement brought relative peace to Northern Ireland, no provision was made for the establishment of some form of overarching truth and reconciliation commission aimed at comprehensively addressing the legacy of violence. Nevertheless, a mechanism to recover the remains of the ‘disappeared’ – the Independent Commission for the Location of Victims’ Remains (ICLVR) – was established, and has in fact proven to be quite effective. As a result, the reactions of key constituencies to the ‘disappearances’ can be used as a prism through which to comprehensively explore issues of relevance to transitional justice scholars and practitioners. Pursuing an interdisciplinary approach, and based on extensive empirical research, this book provides a multifaceted exploration of the responses of these constituencies to the practice of ‘disappearing.’ It engages with transitional justice themes including silence, memory, truth, acknowledgement, and apology. Key issues examined include the mobilisation efforts of families of the ‘disappeared,’ efforts by a (former) non-state armed group to address its legacy of violence, the utility of a limited immunity mechanism to incentivise information provision, and the interplay between silence and memory in the shaping of a collective, societal understanding of the ‘disappeared.’

The Most Evil Mobsters in History

The Most Evil Mobsters in History

By: Lauren Carter

A fascinating study of fifteen of America's 'most wanted' mobsters"--Page 4 of cover. During the 1920s and 1930s, U.S. cities such as New York and Chicago were at the mercy of bands of mobsters--violent criminals affiliated to organized-crime rings who made illegal fortunes from gambling, prostitution, contract killings, abortions, labor union kickbacks, protection rackets, bribery, corruption and, during the Prohibition era, bootlegging. While the Italian Mafia was the largest and most powerful, other ethnic groups had similar organizations, most notably the Jews and the Irish. Mobsters belonged to a hierarchical structure organized like a corporation, hence the name "syndicate." The different gangs often clashed violently in vicious territorial "turf wars." While their business interests and tactics have changed over the years, many of the organizations established in the gangsters' heyday prior to the Second World War still live on today under other names. This book contains profiles of fifteen of the most notorious mobsters.--From publisher description
