The Finish
An 18th century Covent Garden Prostitute is forced to solve a murder or swing from the gallows. “A woman has three choices in life. She may marry. She may become a servant, or she may become a whore.” It is 1769 and these are violent times. London’s Covent Garden has long been a centre of hedonistic pleasure with its whores and harridans, aristocrats and artisans, actors, drunks and thieves. Prostitute, Kitty Ives, takes a man to her bed and wakes to find him dead. Fearing the gallows, so begins Kitty's quest to uncover the identity of the murderer. The Finish exposes the violent and sexual underbelly of the 18th century and challenges your preconceived ideas about historical fiction.
My Soul to Keep
In the third and final book of My Soul To Keep, the orphaned child Arion is a grown man, returning from his travels abroad to fulfill his duties to The Fortress as their crowned king, and to his family by marrying Alley, the woman who was born to marry him and propagate the line. There's just one problem, Arion is only marrying her out of a sense of duty, but Alley doesn't want to marry him at all! When a mysterious man kidnaps her, Arion will move Heaven and Earth to save her. But the secrets this man holds may change everything. Is Arion strong enough to face the horror of his parents' murders and how does Alley fit into something that happened before she was even born?

The Celestial Tradition
Despite the painstaking work of Pound scholars, the mythos of The Cantos has yet to be properly understood — primarily because until now its occult sources have not been examined sufficiently. Drawing upon archival as well as recently published material, this study traces Pound’s intimate engagement with specific occultists (W.B. Yeats, Allen Upward, Alfred Orage, and G.R.S. Mead) and their ideas. The author argues that speculative occultism was a major factor in the evolution of Pound’s extraordinary aesthetic and religious sensibility, much noticed in Pound criticism. The discussion falls into two sections. The first section details Pound’s interest in particular occult movements. ...

When Science Goes Wrong
The science/faith discussion is often hindered by a fundamental misunderstanding of the role and function of science. This misunderstand was made most evident, with tragic consequences, during the recent pandemic. The ways that science has gone wrong, and the underlying causes of how it goes wrong, will be illustrated here with a series of historical essays describing ideas about the universe, planet Earth, and the evolution of life that were all based on ideas that were reasonable…but ultimately wrong. Some are amusing in retrospect; others are tragic. Theology, philosophy, or even mathematics may lay claim to eternal truths, but in science our very cosmologies change. Just as the major r...

Ezra Pound and Europe
The papers included were selected from those given at the 14th international Ezra Pound Conference held at Brunnenburg, Tirolo di Merano, 16-18 July 1991. The guiding principle for organizing the volume was thematic coherence and quality of thought as well as presentation. The articles are gathered under five headings: General Impressions, Traditional Affiliations, Contemporary Connections, Constructing Continuities, and Specific Texts. The exhibitions accompanying the conference are represented and Pound's involvement with Europe is reflected in studies of his relationship with traditional authors as well as his contemporaries. Larger considerations and analysis is offered in Section Four and Cathay, Cantos LXXIII, and Drafts and Fragments are given individual attention.
