Greysands

By: Mark Edmondson

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Philip Lloyd has to start again. So he rents a house in a quiet rundown seaside town less than an hour from his home. He's trying to escape the past, but the past isn't ready to let him move on. The creepy old house is the perfect place for him to write his next novel; or so he thinks. But the strange way the locals behave, and the mysterious things that start to happen, make him wonder if he's made the right choice by moving to Greysands. This powerful, atmospheric, thought-provoking thriller keeps the reader engrossed and fascinated to the very last page. This second novel from the author of 'The Beast of Bodmin' is an exciting new departure and takes the reader into a deeply intriguing new world of suspense.

The Wind, the Fountain and the Fire

Scripture and the Renewal of the Christian Imagination: The 2020 Lent Book

By: Mark Barrett

The 2020 Lent Book from Bloomsbury explores the vivid imagery of the Psalms and the Gospels as a path into scriptural prayer. Scripture, and especially the Book of Psalms, has always formed the substance of the daily prayer of Christian monks and nuns. Monastic men and women spend more time among the scriptures each day than in most other activities. How do such regular interactions with the texts of the Old and New Testaments help us renew our Christian imaginations; how might these reflective encounters enable all of us to discover the wind of the Spirit, the fountain of living water and the fire from which God speaks, within the printed pages of our Bibles? In The Wind, the Fountain and the Fire, Mark Barrett, a Benedictine monk of Worth Abbey, offers a Lenten pathway through scripture, opening the gateway of sacred imagery as a mode of prayerful reflection. For each week of Lent he has selected a different image: the Dust; the Mountain; the Well; the Light and the Tomb. In these richly imagined biblical symbols we are invited to find keys which can unlock both our experience of scripture and our understanding of our own hearts.

The Plight of Rome in the Fifth Century AD

The Plight of Rome in the Fifth Century AD

By: Mark Merrony

The Plight of Rome in the Fifth Century AD argues that the fall of the western Roman Empire was rooted in a significant drop in war booty, agricultural productivity, and mineral resources. Merrony proposes that a dependency on the three economic components was established with the Principate, when a precedent was set for an unsustainable threshold on military spending. Drawing on literary and archaeological data, this volume establishes a correspondence between booty (in the form of slaves and precious metals) from foreign campaigns and public building programmes, and how this equilibrium was upset after the Empire reached its full expansion and began to contract in the third century. It is contended that this trend was exacerbated by the systematic loss of agricultural productivity (principally grain, but also livestock), as successive barbarian tribes were settled and wrested control from the imperial authorities in the fifth century. Merrony explores how Rome was weakened and divided, unable to pay its army, feed its people, or support the imperial bureaucracy – and how this contributed to its administrative collapse.

83 Minutes

The Doctor, The Damage and the Shocking Death of Michael Jackson

By: Matt Richards,Mark Langthorne

On June 25th, 2009, the world was rocked by the tragic, shocking news that Michael Jackson - the biggest and most influential music icon since Elvis Presley - was pronounced dead on arrival at a Los Angeles hospital. He was 50 years old. As the news reverberated around the world, it was accompanied by even more shocking and controversial information - a sickening revelation to Jackson's millions of fans: that Jackson had died in the care of his personal physician, Dr Conrad Murray - a whole 83 minutes before Murray put a 911 call in to emergency services. In this, a comprehensive and truly horrifying account of those crucial minutes - Murray's frantic attempts to cover his tracks and revive his client before the truth could be revealed - are laid bare. This is a compelling, multi-perspective tracking of all who were involved at the scene, and their part to play in the events surrounding Jackson's tragic passing. The shocking cocktail of drugs employed to keep Jackson alive, adminstered by Murray himself; the harrowing and squalid conditions in which this troubled musical genius ended his life, all is 100% accurately described from official court transcripts and documentation. A powerful and compelling account of the brutal truth behind the rumours.

Turks, Repertories, and the Early Modern English Stage

Turks, Repertories, and the Early Modern English Stage

By: Mark Hutchings

This book considers the relationship between the vogue for putting the Ottoman Empire on the English stage and the repertory system that underpinned London playmaking. The sheer visibility of 'the Turk' in plays staged between 1567 and 1642 has tended to be interpreted as registering English attitudes to Islam, as articulating popular perceptions of Anglo-Ottoman relations, and as part of a broader interest in the wider world brought home by travellers, writers, adventurers, merchants, and diplomats. Such reports furnished playwrights with raw material which, fashioned into drama, established ‘the Turk’ as a fixture in the playhouse. But it was the demand for plays to replenish company repertories to attract London audiences that underpinned playmaking in this period. Thus this remarkable fascination for the Ottoman Empire is best understood as a product of theatre economics and the repertory system, rather than taken directly as a measure of cultural and historical engagement.

Censorship in Canadian Literature

By: Mark Cohen

Since judgment is enmeshed in the fabric of human endeavour, censorship is inevitable; since censorship is inevitable, Cohen concludes, debate over whether censorship itself is desirable should give way to a search for censorship practices that are more just."--BOOK JACKET.

The Ends of Freedom

The Ends of Freedom

Reclaiming America's Lost Promise of Economic Rights

By: Mark Paul

“This is the book that throws down a forceful gauntlet on how, at last, to create an equitable America.” —William A. Darity Jr., Samuel DuBois Cook Distinguished Professor of Public Policy, Duke University For some Americans, freedom means the provision of life’s necessities, those basic conditions for the “pursuit of happiness.” For others, freedom means the civil and political rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights and unfettered access to the marketplace—nothing more. As Mark Paul explains, the latter interpretation has all but won out among policymakers, with dire repercussions for American society: rampant inequality, endemic poverty, and an economy built to benefit the few at the expense of the many. Paul shows how economic rights—rights to necessities like housing, employment, and health care—have been a part of the American conversation since the Revolutionary War and were a cornerstone of both the New Deal and the Civil Rights Movement. By drawing on FDR’s proposed Economic Bill of Rights, Paul outlines a comprehensive policy program to achieve an enduring version of American freedom. Replete with discussions of some of today’s most influential policy ideas, The Ends of Freedom is a timely call to reclaim the idea of freedom from its captors on the political right—to ground America’s next era in the country’s progressive history and carve a path toward a more equitable nation. “An excellent resource for policymakers, students, activists, and citizens interested in achieving the promise of democracy.” —Mehrsa Baradaran, University of California, Irvine School of Law “Paul’s book is a welcome contribution to thinking about policies that might help build a more just, freer society.” —Jacobin
