Download or read book Ransom written by David Malouf and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-01-05 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his first novel in more than a decade, award-winning author David Malouf reimagines the pivotal narrative of Homer’s Iliad—one of the most famous passages in all of literature. This is the story of the relationship between two grieving men at war: fierce Achilles, who has lost his beloved Patroclus in the siege of Troy; and woeful Priam, whose son Hector killed Patroclus and was in turn savaged by Achilles. A moving tale of suffering, sorrow, and redemption, Ransom is incandescent in its delicate and powerful lyricism and its unstated imperative that we imagine our lives in the glow of fellow feeling.

Book Synopsis Edge of Empires by : Donald Rayfield
Download or read book Edge of Empires written by Donald Rayfield and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe, Georgia is a country of rainforests and swamps, snow and glaciers, and semi-arid plains. It has ski resorts and mineral springs, monuments and an oil pipeline. It also has one of the longest and most turbulent histories in the Christian or Near Eastern world, but no comprehensive, up-to-date account has been written about this little-known country—until now. Remedying this omission, Donald Rayfield accesses a mass of new material from recently opened archives to tell Georgia’s absorbing story. Beginning with the first intimations of the existence of Georgians in ancient Anatolia and ending with the volatile presidency of Mikheil Saakashvili, Rayfield deals with the country’s internal politics and swings between disintegration and unity, and divulges Georgia’s complex struggles with the empires that have tried to control, fragment, or even destroy it. He describes the country’s conflicts with Xenophon’s Greeks, Arabs, invading Turks, the Crusades, Genghis Khan, the Persian Empire, the Russian Empire, and Soviet totalitarianism. A wide-ranging examination of this small but colorful country, its dramatic state-building, and its tragic political mistakes, Edge of Empires draws our eyes to this often overlooked nation.

Book Synopsis Hadrian's Wall by : William Dietrich
Download or read book Hadrian's Wall written by William Dietrich and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fusion of Steven Pressfield's Gates of Fire and the movie Braveheart; a novel of ancient warfare, lethal politics, and the final great clash of Roman and Celtic culture. For three centuries, the stone barrier we know as Hadrian's Wall shielded Roman Britain from the unconquered barbarians of the island's northern highlands. But when Valeria, a senator's daughter, is sent to the Wall for an arranged marriage to an aristocratic officer in 367 AD, her journey unleashes jealousy, passion and epic war. Valeria's new husband, Marcus, has supplanted the brutally efficient veteran soldier Galba as commander of the famed Petriana cavalry. Yet Galba insists on escorting the bride–to–be on her journey to the Wall. Is he submitting to duty? Or plotting revenge? And what is the mysterious past of the handsome barbarian chieftain Arden Caratacus, who springs from ambush and who seems to know so much of hated Rome? As sharp as the edge of a spatha sword and as piercing as a Celtic arrow, Hadrian's Wall evokes a lost world of Roman ideals and barbaric romanticism.

Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s. It might have remade New York's cultural landscape; it definitely changed the whole tone of magazine journalism. It was cruel, brilliant, beautifully written and perfectly designed, and feared by all. There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.

The Duke I Once Knew: Abigail Linton has devoted herself to caring for her parents and her siblings’ children. Eager to create a life of her own, Abby seizes upon a position as a governess on a neighbouring estate. Unfortunately, her employer is Maxwell Bryce, the Duke of Rothwell – the notorious rake who once broke her youthful heart. Since he hasn’t set foot on his estate for fifteen years, Abby assumes she’ll never have to see him... Until, one day, he appears. Both Abby and Max have changed over the years, but has their passion for each other stayed true? Forever My Duke: Hadrian Ames, the Duke of Clayton, needs a bride. He even has the perfect one picked out. That is, until he meets outspoken American Natalie Fanshawe – the opposite of what a man of his high rank should desire in a wife. Natalie couldn’t care less about Hadrian’s title or his need to marry. He can’t understand what it’s like to be a busy woman, planning to open a school while trying to reunite a six-year-old orphan with his English relatives. Nevertheless, Hadrian launches his campaign to win Natalie’s heart. But can the American beauty ever find a way to love him? When A Duke Loves A Governess: Tessa James has worked tirelessly to open her own millinery shop. All she needs now is a loan from the lord who sired and abandoned her. The easiest way to track him down? Infiltrate the aristocracy by becoming a governess. Guy Whitby, the Duke of Carlin, has returned to London after years abroad to discover that his young daughter, Sophy, has been scaring away her governesses. So when bold and beautiful Tessa applies for the job, he hires her despite his misgivings that she might be fibbing about her qualifications. But Guy’s murky past comes back to haunt him, and when an old enemy threatens his family, he and Tessa are thrown into the path of danger... A sweeping Regency romance series for fans of Bridgerton, Tessa Dare and Mary Jo Putney. Praise for Olivia Drake ‘A really lovely feel-good story that had me smiling throughout. There was never a dull moment... a jolly good passionate romance and a perfect read.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review ‘Fast paced with strong characters & a lovely mix of intrigue, mystery & romance. I loved both Guy & Tessa... their chemistry simmers then sizzles. The road to their HEA isn’t easy but it made for a book that I found very hard to put down. A very well written engrossing read.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review ‘After a really long week at work, there's nothing better than a weekend with a lovely book... I would recommend this if you need a little romantic getaway. Really well worth a read.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review ‘Olivia Drake always writes consistently good stories that keep her readers wanting more. I could not put these books down and absolutely loved them.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review ‘Loved the characters and the opposites attract concept. Highly recommend.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader review
