The Art of Killing
When Julie's teenage twins leave home to go to university, Julie is left at a loose end for the very first time in her life. Her husband and a well-meaning friend urge her to take a job in a local company, but with disastrous consequences. Before long, Julie finds herself at the centre of a murder investigation. Read how Julie, fortified by countless cups of tea and coffee and the faithful family dog, attempts to make sense of what is going on around her!
The Silence of Killing
Just when Julie thinks that everything is going her way, her new found peace is destroyed by the discovery that she has cancer. Her anxiety is increased by the long wait to discover how bad her condition is, and she is desperate to find distractions to take her mind off things. Gradually she allows herself to be drawn into the problems of her friends - to the extent that she can no longer distinguish fact from fiction, or, in Julie's terms, the difference between death from natural causes and murder. This is the second in the Julie Lane murder mysteries.

Annabel
In 1968, in a remote part of Canada, a mysterious child is born: a baby who appears to be neither fully boy nor girl, but both at once. Only three people share the secret - the baby's parents and a trusted neighbour. Together the adults make a difficult decision: to go through surgery and raise the child as a boy named Wayne. But as Wayne grows up within the hyper-male hunting culture of his father, his shadow-self - a girl he thinks of as 'Annabel' - is never entirely extinguished, and indeed is secretly nurtured by the women in his life. As Wayne approaches adulthood, and its emotional and physical demands, the woman inside him begins to cry out. The changes that follow are momentous not just for him, but for the three adults that have guarded his secret. Shortlisted for the Orange Prize.

The Reception of Jane Austen in Europe
This volume of international research provides a wide-ranging account of Jane Austen's reception across the length and breadth of Europe, from Russia and Finland in the North to Italy and Spain in the South. In historical terms, the survey ranges from the near-contemporary - since Austen's novels were available in French very soon after their original publication - to modern times, in those countries which for various reasons, linguistic, historical or ideological, have taken up the novels only in recent years. For many, Austen's novels are valued for their romantic content, as love stories, but increasingly they are being perceived as sophisticated, ironic narratives. In this, the quality of translation has been a significant factor and the many film and television adaptations have played an important part in establishing Austen's reputation amongst the public at large. It will be seen from this that across Europe Austen's 'reception history' is far from uniform and has been shaped by a complex of extra-literary forces.
