The Reunion Party

An unputdownable psychological thriller with a heart stopping twist

By: Penny Batchelor

The outsider. The geek. The football star. The quiet one. The good Samaritan. They're five unlikely people who wouldn't have met if not for Tania Armstrong-Jones. Widely popular and the resident It girl, she stormed into each of their lives with her beguiling grace and an inseparable friendship was formed. Until tragedy strikes, and Tania is taken away from them too soon, tearing the group apart. Now twenty-five years later, they're reuniting at a remote country hotel on the anniversary of her death. But when the drinks start flowing and with the party in full swing, the merry mood of the night suddenly turns when secret revelations come to light about their university days. But just how well did they know Tania? And could there be more to Tania's accident than they're letting on? Trapped in the hotel with no way out and with no one they can trust, who will make it through the reunion in one piece? An absolutely unputdownable psychological thriller from Penny Batchelor that puts friendships to the test, with shocking twists and turns that will blow your mind. Perfect for fans of C.L. Taylor, Sue Watson and B.A. Paris. What readers are saying about Penny Batchelor!

Changing Pedagogical Spaces in Higher Education

Diversity, inequalities and misrecognition

By: Penny Jane Burke,Gill Crozier,Lauren Ila Misiaszek

Higher education is in a current state of flux and uncertainty, with profound changes being shaped largely by the imperatives of global neoliberalism. Changing Pedagogical Spaces in Higher Education forms a unique addition to the literature and includes significant practical pointers in developing pedagogical strategies, interventions and practices that seek to address the complexities of identity formations, difference, inequality and misrecognition. Drawing on research studies based across California, England, Italy, Portugal and Spain, this book analyses complex pedagogical re/formations across competing discourses of gender, diversity, equity, global neoliberalism and transformation, and aims: to critique and reconceptualise widening participation practices in higher education to consider the complex intersections between difference, equity, global neoliberalism and transformation to analyse the intersections of identity formations, social inequalities and pedagogical practices to contribute to broader widening participation policy agendas to develop an analysis of gendered experiences, intersected by race and class, of higher education practices and relations. Changing Pedagogical Spaces in Higher Education will speak to those concerned with how theory relates to everyday practices and development of teaching in higher education and those who are interested in theorising about pedagogies, identities and inequalities in higher education. Engaging readers in a dialogue of the relationship between theory and practice, this thought-provoking and challenging text will be of particular interest to researchers, academic developers and policy-makers in the field of higher education studies.

Constructing Girlhood

Popular Magazines For Girls Growing Up In England, 1920-1950

By: Penny Tinkler

This text explores the contribution of magazines to the social construction of female adolescence during a historical period of rapid change and locates the role of magazines in the lives of contemporary girls. In addressing this theme, the book explores the changing social, economic, political and cultural conditions which shaped, and continue to influence, the experience of girlhood. The author discusses key concepts such as adolescence and "girlhood" and outlines theories concerning the interpretation of gender relations, cultural production, meaning and reading.; The chapters use life-course events and changes such as schooling, work, entrance into relationships, marriage and motherhood as their main themes. The author discusses the importance attached to age and social class for the form and content of the magazines and explores the interlinked factors which contributed to decisions about what were legitimate concerns for girls - for example, publisher's objectives and culture; reader interests; and ideologies of femininity. The final chapter outlines the patterns of leisure consumption in this era, providing insights into the changing role of leisure in today's society.
