Martha’s House

Dive deep into the sun-drenched landscape of Athens and the island of Hydra, where a house whispers stories of love, loss, and resilience. In Alex Nassos’s evocative novel, Martha’s House, readers are transported across time, from war-torn years where Martha’s indomitable spirit forges a life amid chaos, to decades later where Zoe inherits not just a house, but a legacy. Amidst the idyllic Grecian backdrop, Martha’s House witnesses the fiery passion of youth, the sorrow of lost love, and the enduring power of family ties. As Zoe opens its doors to a parade of tourists, she finds herself tangled in island intrigue, age-old feuds, and hidden histories. In Martha’s House, every room has a secret, every guest an untold story. Nassos masterfully intertwines the past and present in a tale that’s as breathtaking as the Aegean Sea. Experience Hydra in all its tumultuous beauty, and discover why Martha’s House is a place you’ll long to return to, long after the final page is turned.

Good Chaps

The 'Good Chaps' theory holds that those who rise to power in the UK can be trusted to follow the rules and do the right thing. They're good chaps, after all. Yet Britain appears to have been taken over by bad chaps, and politics is awash with financial scandals, donors who have practically bought shares in political parties, and a shameless contempt for the rules. Simon Kuper, author of the Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller Chums, exposes how corruption took control of public life, and asks: how can we get politicians to behave like good chaps again?

Immigration and health care are hotly debated and contentious issues. Policies that relate to both issues—to the health of newcomers—often reflect misimpressions about immigrants, and their impact on health care systems. Despite the fact that immigrants are typically younger and healthier than natives, and that many immigrants play a vital role as care-givers in their new lands, native citizens are often reluctant to extend basic health care to immigrants, choosing instead to let them suffer, to let them die prematurely, or to expedite their return to their home lands. Likewise, many nations turn against immigrants when epidemics such as Ebola strike, under the false belief that native p...
