    Pan Macmillan September 2021 Highlights They Got You Too Futhi Ntshingila Hans van Rooyen is a former police general raised by two women who survived the 1899 South African War. He finds himself being cared for in an old age home by the daughter of liberation struggle activists. At 80, he carries with him the memories of crimes he committed as an officer under the apartheid government. Having eluded the public confessions at the TRC for his time in the Border Wars, he retained his position in the democratic South Africa, serving as an institutional memory for a new generation of police recruits. Zoe Zondi is tasked to care for the old man. Her gentle and compassionate nature prompts Hans to review his decision to go to the grave with all his secrets. Zoe has her own life story to tell and, as their unlikely bond deepens, strengthened by the isolation that COVID-19 lockdown brings, they provide a safe space for each other to say the things that are often left unsaid. Futhi Ntshingila is a writer from Pietermaritzburg. The author of Shameless and Do Not Go Gentle, her work centres on women and marginalised communities. Futhi holds a Master’s Degree in Conflict Resolution and currently lives and works in Pretoria. • ISBN: 9781770107281 • Format: Trade Paperback • Genre: Fiction • Extent: TBC • Price: R290,00 IMMEDIATE RELEASE Shuggie Bain Winner of the Booker Prize 2020 July release Douglas Stuart It is 1981.

Source of Supplied Title Descriptive title provided by the archivist based on subject of the collection. Arrangement The collection has been arranged by the archivist. Accruals Further accruals are expected. Detailed Description: “I am all in a sea of wonders. I doubt; I fear; I think strange things, which I dare not confess to my own soul.” ― Bram Stoker, Dracula The multifaceted vampire is a subject of great allure to authors, filmmakers, and, increasingly, to academics. Scholarly study of literary and cultural representations of the vampire is today robust. The Modern Literature and Culture Research Centre’s recent acquisition of vampire literature, donated by world expert in the field Dr. Elizabeth Miller, offers researchers a significant new resource for this work. The vampire exerted a particular pull over audiences of the modern period, exemplified by the popularity of the 1897 publication of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

  • Narrative Topography: Fictions of Country, City, and Suburb in the Work of Virginia Woolf, W. G. Sebald, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Ian Mcewan
    Narrative Topography: Fictions of Country, City, and Suburb in the Work of Virginia Woolf, W. G. Sebald, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Ian McEwan Elizabeth Andrews McArthur Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Elizabeth Andrews McArthur All rights reserved ABSTRACT Narrative Topography: Fictions of Country, City, and Suburb in the Work of Virginia Woolf, W. G. Sebald, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Ian McEwan Elizabeth Andrews McArthur This dissertation analyzes how twentieth- and early twenty-first- century novelists respond to the English landscape through their presentation of narrative and their experiments with novelistic form. Opening with a discussion of the English planning movement, “Narrative Topography” reveals how shifting perceptions of the structure of English space affect the content and form of the contemporary novel. The first chapter investigates literary responses to the English landscape between the World Wars, a period characterized by rapid suburban growth. It reveals how Virginia Woolf, in Mrs. Dalloway and Between the Acts, reconsiders which narrative choices might be appropriate for mobilizing and critiquing arguments about the relationship between city, country, and suburb. The following chapters focus on responses to the English landscape during the present era. The second chapter argues that W. G. Sebald, in The Rings of Saturn, constructs rural Norfolk and Suffolk as containing landscapes of horror—spaces riddled with sinkholes that lead his narrator to think about near and distant acts of violence. As Sebald intimates that this forms a porous “landscape” in its own right, he draws attention to the fallibility of representation and the erosion of cultural memory.

  • And Quite a Lot of Books After That Date)
    ladybirdflyawayhome.com A complete List of all Ladybird Books published between 1940 and the early 1980s (and quite a lot of books after that date) Why this date? Before 1972 the publisher was known as Wills & Hepworth Ltd and was run by a small board of directors. In 1972 the directors retired and the company was sold to the Pearson Financial Group. The name ‘Wills & Hepworth’ was dropped and much of what had made a ‘classic’ Ladybird book began to change. The content and quality began to decline. In 1999 UK print operations were closed down. This date captures the best of Ladybird – but also allows collectors to complete sets that started in the ‘golden years’. Please let me know if you find anything I’ve missed or spot any errors. NB Any book issued before 1964 will originally have had a dustwapper over its boards. Any book published after 1965 will not have originally had a dustwrapper. The date found on the title page of most Ladybird books is a very unreliable guide as to the age of any particular edition. In general, the title page states date of publication of the title’s first edition and not the date of that particular copy. For the purpose of identification, only the illustrator is usually stated here - rarely the writer - as the illustrator tends to be a more reliable way of identifying two different books or editions with the same title.
