    More Lies is a highly referential comedy thriller about a writer being held hostage in their own apartment and forced to type to hide the manoeuvres of a femme fatale, holding a pearl-handled gun, and her brother, a small-time thug with big-time ambitions. This wild tale about assassination, lost gold, betrayal, passion and identity theft engages the reader in the many layers of the author's witty but deceptive journey. Through a series of lies, backflips and alternative versions of the tale, the author moves from being a trapped hack, forced to prostitute themselves, to dazzling the world with the acrobatics of their imagination, to the heart of the matter: storytelling is all that is keeping them alive. A phantasmagoric, avant-garde story set in a lost New York, Richard James Allen's More Lies both entertains and provokes as it reveals a world where 'truth is never enough/Or it's unlikeable.' A fluid narrative forward motion and a sense of the fundamental mystery of it all have never been so closely intertwined. - Nicholas Birns, New York University

In precise and vivid language, the poems deliver fresh takes on life, at once quirky and bittersweet.

    Dr Dolan''s book details the intimate lives of four Iranian women, their struggle with drugs and the daily grind they faced in their personal lives.Surprisingly, Iran responded well to its AIDS crisis but forgot to include female drug users. While Dr Dolan delivered training to Iranian prison doctors, she met women who were addicted to drugs and were desperately in need of treatment. With her health professional colleagues in Iran, she set out to establish the first drug treatment clinic for women. She was granted access to areas and people not normally afforded to outsiders. One of the most interesting aspect of the clinic was the safe room that allowed women to remove their hejabs, smoke cigarettes and reveal their life stories. Working at the clinic challenged assumptions Dr Dolan had of Iran and its people. She came away with insights that are rare even in the world of international development.This book covers several years of Dr Dolan''s work and research.

  • - Experiences of spiritual journeys
    av Fiona Gardner
    176,-

    Although originally daunted at being asked to present the 2020 James Backhouse Lecture to Australian Friends, Fiona Gardner came to find that the opportunity encouraged her to reflect more deeply on her own journey and what might usefully be shared with others. For over twenty years, Fiona has participated in facilitating the Meeting for Learning (a year-long program for spiritual nurture, designed to explore Spirit and Quaker ways), and lives with her partner in a small intentional community that has been a place of spiritual nurture and learning. She has worked as a social worker for many years and now as a university teacher, particularly in fostering critical reflection and spirituality for social workers and critical spirituality for pastoral care workers. A continuing challenge in her spiritual life has been how to integrate her spiritual being in all of these aspects of her life. "Why seek to live life in union with Spirit? Such a life, in my experience and that of many others, is a fuller, richer, meaning filled and deeper life, connected to that which is eternal. It means moving from what is often called the 'divided life', beyond opposing forces to a place of wholeness, to integrating all of who we are in all that we do. To do this means holding together these opposites." Fiona Gardner is a longstanding member of Victoria Regional Meeting, based within the Bendigo Worshiping Group. She has also played a significant role nationally in the development of Meeting for Learning over the years, as a facilitator and coordinator. Her professional work is as a social worker primarily in rural areas, and for the last seven years she has been coordinator of the Department of Social Work at La Trobe University Rural Health School, and researching and writing related to the place of spirituality in social work and allied health. She also teaches a unit in critical spirituality at Stirling Theological College with pastoral care workers and ministers, mainly from a variety of Christian traditions. Fiona Gardner came to the Religious Society of Friends in her mid-thirties, convinced by the depth and power of silent worship, the warmth and welcome of Quaker community and social commitment. She is part of a small worshipping group in rural Victoria and has been fortunate to be a facilitator of Meeting for Learning since its beginning in 1996.

    While women account for 50% of the population they only occupy around 0.5% of recorded history. When pre-history turned into history, and, as new civilisations expanded, society became more militarised, and the story of "humanity" was often filtered through male perspectives. So the tales of many strong and powerful women became stifled and forgotten.It's time to restore the stories of feisty, courageous, and athletic females into the historical narrative. It's time to reconsider what it means for men and women to be human and to seek to excel. Jane Daoud's The Power of Women takes an important step toward that goal.

    This is the tale of the critters who reside behind the locked gates of a Botanical Gardens at night. It’s the first formal offering from author/illustrator War Of The Real.The idea for characters like those in this book was hatched in aCooktown (Far North Queensland, Australia) public restroom.It all came together after the discovery of a permanent markerdiscarded on the bathroom floor, a fleeting inspiration and an unoccupied moment in an otherwise occupied cubicle.From then on, wherever the road led, the artist is alwaysarmed with his trusty Sharpie on the trail of bug-eyedoddities, smiling down from where they’ve been scrawled.  The mission for War Of The Real is to deliver wackiness to the world, encouraging you to never take anything too seriously, question everything you run into and most of all have fun while you’re doing it.

  • - The Untold Story of Vale Royal Abbey
    av Geoffrey Hebdon
    365,-

    This colourful and thoroughly researched history of the Lord Delamere branch of the British aristocracy focuses on the famous Vale Royal Abbey in Cheshire, England. The Cholmondeley family, who owned the Abbey throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, are described in lavish and intimate detail as they maneuvered to maintain, through three generations, their status as a leading family in the United Kingdom.Beginning in the late 17th century, we follow Charles Cholmondeley as he served as a member of the King’s army in Canada in the war against the French. Part I witnesses the ubiquitous Thomas Cholmondeley who purchased the title ‘Lord (Baron) Delamere’ for £5000 from the British crown in 1821. Part II covers the 2nd Lord Delamere, Hugh Cholmondeley, who led a very sad and difficult life, and experienced the deterioration of Vale Royal. Part III reviews the life of Hugh Cholmondeley, Jnr., 3rd Lord Delamere, his abandonment of Vale Royal Abbey and his relocation to East Africa. Narcissistic Hugh was part of the notorious “happy valley crowd” of Kenya and their lives of debauchery, sex and drugs.The Vale Royal Abbey lives on today, a national treasure and testament to the intriguing lives of those who occupied it over the centuries.
