Download or read book The Book of Swimbridge written by Philip Dalling and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-22 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swimbridge can fairly claim to be one of North Devon's most attractive and most interesting villages, set in a deep valley watered by the Venn Stream and overlooked by rolling hills. The village itself, grouped around its gem of a parish church, is forever associated with the famous hunting parson, the Rev. John Russell - Parson Jack - and the breed of dog he orginated. It stands at the centre of a much wider parish, once one of the largest in Devon. This book examines life in Swimbridge during the momentous decades from 1900 to the millennium, looking back where appropriate to examine the factors that formed the settlement, and forward to see how the village has responded to the challenges of the twenty-first century.

Book excerpt: FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SNAP 'Belinda Bauer is one of the best British crime writers out there right now' Simon Kernick Every killer has to start somewhere . . . On the beaches and cliffs of North Devon, young women have become victims in a terrifying game where only one player knows the rules. And when those rules change, the new game is Murder. But a madman on the loose feels very far from the crumbling, seaside home of ten-year-old Ruby Trick. Instead she lives in constant fear of school bullies, the dark forest, and the threat of her parents' divorce. Helping her father to catch the killer seems like the only way to keep him close. As long as the killer doesn't catch her first. ___ 'Bauer's great gift is her ability to surprise the reader . . . She makes you think a bit differently about the world' Daily Telegraph Readers are gripped by The Facts of Life and Death: 'If it was possible to give ten stars I would. I absolutely loved this book' ***** 'One of my favourite crime novels of all time' ***** 'Absorbing from start to finish, a cracking read!' *****

Download or read book This Sporting Life written by Robert Colls and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-28 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did killing a fox mean liberty? What did parish revels have to do with the Peterloo Massacre? What did animal cruelty have to do with the English constitution? What did the Factory Acts mean for modern football? In This Sporting Life, Robert Colls explains sport as one of England's great civil cultures. The lived experiences of people from all walks of life are reclaimed to tell England's history through its great sporting cultures, from the horseback pursuits of the wealthy and politically connected, to the street games in working-class neighbourhoods which needed nothing but a ball. It observes people at play, describes how they felt and thought, carries the reader along to a match or a hunt or a fight, draws out the sounds and smells of humans and animals, showing that sport has been as important in defining British culture as gender, politics, education, class, and religion.

Download or read book I Used to Live Here Once: The Haunted Life of Jean Rhys written by Miranda Seymour and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2022-06-28 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Enthralling.… Seymour powerfully evokes the world from which Rhys never really escaped, one of prejudice, abuse, and abuse’s shamefaced offspring, complicity.” —James Wood, The New Yorker An intimate, profoundly moving biography of Jean Rhys, acclaimed author of Wide Sargasso Sea. Jean Rhys is one of the most compelling writers of the twentieth century. Memories of her Caribbean girlhood haunt the four short and piercingly brilliant novels that Rhys wrote during her extraordinary years as an exile in 1920s Paris and later in England, a body of fiction—above all, the extraordinary Wide Sargasso Sea—that has a passionate following today. And yet her own colorful life, including her early years on the Caribbean island of Dominica, remains too little explored, until now. In I Used to Live Here Once, Miranda Seymour sheds new light on the artist whose proud and fiercely solitary life profoundly informed her writing. Rhys experienced tragedy and extreme poverty, alcohol and drug dependency, romantic and sexual turmoil, all of which contributed to the “Rhys woman” of her oeuvre. Today, readers still intuitively relate to her unforgettable characters, vulnerable, watchful, and often alarmingly disaster-prone outsiders; women with a different way of moving through the world. And yet, while her works often contain autobiographical material, Rhys herself was never a victim. The figure who emerges for Seymour is cultured, self-mocking, unpredictable—and shockingly contemporary. Based on new research in the Caribbean, a wealth of never-before-seen papers, journals, letters, and photographs, and interviews with those who knew Rhys, I Used to Live Here Once is a luminous and penetrating portrait of a fascinatingly elusive artist.
