  • "The Problem of Predicting What Will Last"
    Allan Massie, "The Problem of Predicting What Will Last" Booksonline, with Amazon.co.uk (An Electronic Telegraph Publication) 4 January 2000 As our Book of the Century series concludes, Allan Massie compares the list with one published by The Daily Telegraph 100 years ago EACH WEEK for the past two years The Daily Telegraph’s literary editor has asked a contributor to name and describe his or her "Book of the Century", and today the series concludes with Arthur C. Clarke’s choice. The full selection invites comparison with a list drawn up by The Telegraph a century ago; we print both here. The comparison cannot, however, be exact. All the books chosen in 1899 were fiction - the paper offered its readers the "100 Best Novels in the World", selected by the editor "with the assistance of Sir Edwin Arnold, K. C. I. E, H. D. Traill, D. C. L, and W. L. Courtney, LL. D.". The modern list includes poetry, plays, history, diaries, philosophy, economics, memoirs, biography and travel writing. It is certainly eclectic, ranging from Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, selected by David Sylvester, to The Wind in the Willows, chosen by John Bayley, and Down with Skool, Wendy Cope’s Book of the Century. The 1899 list, on offer at the time in a cloth-bound edition at nine guineas the lot (easy terms available), is homogeneous, as the modern one is not, not only because it consists entirely of works of fiction but also because the selection was made by a small group. And since they were picking the 100 Best Novels, they were able to include books that nobody might name as a single "Book of the Century" but which many might put in their top 20 or so.

He will go to hell and back to find out. Batman: Damned is a visceral thrill ride and supernatural horror story told by two of comics’ greatest modern creators: Brian Azzarello and Lee Bermejo. The Joker has been murdered. His killer’s identity is a mystery. Batman is the World’s Greatest Detective. But what happens when the person he is searching for is the man staring back at him in the mirror? With no memory of what happened on the night of the murder, Batman is going to need some help. Who better to set him straight than John Constantine? The problem is that as much as John loves a good mystery, he loves messing with people’s heads even more. With John’s “help,” the pair will delve into the sordid underbelly of Gotham as they race toward the mind-blowing truth of who murdered The Joker.

Blood runs down her legs Sand the scent of charred meat lingers on her flesh. It hurts to walk but she staggers home to parents that don’t seem to notice.

Peach must patch herself up alone so she can go to college and see her boyfriend, Green.

  • Gwen and Jacques Raverat. Paintings and Wood-Engravings, De L.M
    LM. Newman and D.A. Steel, Gwen and Jacques Raverat. Paintings and Wood-Engravings. University of Lancaster Library, [G.-B.], 1989, 70 p., 6 ±:1. par Michael TILBY En juin, 1989 quelques amateurs de l'oeuvre des Raverat, dont notre ami David Steel, ont eu l'heureuse idée de monter, dans le cadre du vingt­ cinquième anniversaire de l'Université de Lancaster, une importante exposition consacrée à la vie artistique de ces deux amis de Gide. Pour ceux qui n'ont pu s'offrir le plaisir de voir de leurs propres yeux les quelque 180 tableaux et gravures que les organisateurs ont réussi à rassembler pour le profit de leurs visiteurs, gidiens et autres, il reste toujours ce catalogue, guère moins précieux. Orné d'une sélection de gravures sur bois de Gwen Raverat fort intéressante (dont une de 1930 qui a pour sujet l'abbaye de Pontigny), le catalogue proprement dit est précédé d'une élégante et très riche introduction (due à D. Steel) et suivi d'une bibliographie qui, sans prétendre être exhaustive, sera désormais le point de départ essentiel pour quiconque aura en vue une étude biographique de ces deux conjoints dont les dons artistiques et intellectuels, pour être essentiellement complémentaires, furent loin d'être négligeables. Que Mme Newman et l'imprimerie de l'Université de Lancaster trouvent ici d'ailleurs l'expression de notre admiration devant la qualité de la production matérielle de cette belle brochure de 70 pages. On ne saurait guère reprocher aux docteurs Newman et Steel le fait de n'avoir réuni en tout que cinq tableaux de Jacques Raverat, d'autant plus que ceux-ci étaient en provenance tous les cinq de collections privées, donc très peu connus.

  • Raverat's River Interactive
    The River Cam According to Gwen Raverat Introduction Gwen Raverat, the granddaughter of naturalist Charles Darwin, was born and brought up in Cambridge and pursued an artistic path, including study at The Slade School of Fine Art, London. Her practice was, to a great extent, a diary of her life as a woman in the early and mid 1900’s, depicting scenes from her home city, of her husband, painter Jacques Raverat, as well as imagery from a short period living in the south of France. Substantial collections of her work rest in two Cambridge institutions, Murray Edwards College (Raverat’s work is part of the New Hall Art Collection) and The Fitzwilliam Museum. Working in paint and relief printmaking (usually woodcuts or wood engravings), Gwen Raverat paid great attention to detail and drew on her surroundings for her subject matter. The river Cam appears regularly in her works, as part of the landscape or as the central character of the works, taking the viewer’s eye under bridges and along the buildings of Cambridge. This publication sets out and maps a selection of Raverat’s work, pinpointing the location where she captured her chosen subjects. In the course of the research, discoveries and connections that have been found are noted alongside each work, together with relevant other material such as geographical and access information. Created as part of a project capturing contemporary visual responses to Raverat’s rivers, the publication forms a component of a wider enquiry entitled To The River. To The River is a public art commission to celebrate the story of the river Cam in Cambridge.

  • Bart Van Es Wins the 2018 Slightly
    for immediate release – 26 february 2019 The Biographers’ Club and Slightly Foxed are delighted to announce that the winner of the 2018 prize, chosen by judges Anne Chisholm, Rachel Cooke and Andrew O’Hagan, is The Cut Out Girl by Bart van Es, already winner of the Costa Book of the Year Award Bart van Es The Cut Out Girl(Penguin Fig Tree) The extraordinary true story of a young Jewish girl in Holland during World War II, who hides from the Nazis in the homes of an underground network of foster families, one of them the author’s grandparents. Bart van Es left Holland for England many years ago, but one story from his Dutch childhood never left him. It was a mystery of sorts: a young Jewish girl named Lientje had been taken in during the war by relatives and hidden from the Nazis, handed over by her parents, only too aware of the danger they were in. The girl was raised by her foster family as one of their own, but well after the war there was a grave rift, and they were no longer in touch. What was the girl’s side of the story, Bart wondered? What really happened during the war, and after? So began an investigation that would consume the author’s life, and change it irrevocably. The Cut Out Girl is a deeply moving reckoning with a young girl’s struggle for survival during war, and a triumphant marriage of many keys of writing, ultimately blending them into an extraordinary new harmony, and a deeper truth.
