One Moonlit Night
This simple novel tells of one boy's journey into the grown-up world. By the light of a full moon our narrator and his friends Huw and Moi witness a side to their Welsh village life that they had no idea existed, and their childish innocence is exchanged for a shocking introduction to the horrors of the adult world.
The Grey King
A strange boy and dog remind Will Stanton that he is an immortal, whose quest is to find the golden harp which will rouse others from a long slumner in the Welsh hills so they may prepare for the ultimate battle of Light versus Dark.
Blasu
Wrth edrych yn ol ar ei bywyd, a'r teulu a'r ffrindiau a fu'n gwmni iddi ar hyd y daith, daw blasau o'r gorffennol i brocio atgofion Pegi. Ond nid yw pob atgof yn felys, ac mae rhai cyfrinachau'n gadael blas chwerw.

Pigeon
An incongruous ice-cream van lurches up into the Welsh hills through the hail, pursued by a boy and girl who chase it into their own dark make-believe world, and unfurl in their compelling voices a tale which ultimately breaks out of childhood and echoes across the years. Pigeon is the tragic, occasionally hilarious and ultimately intense story of a childhood friendship and how it s torn apart, a story of guilt, silence and the loss of innocence, and a story about the kind of love which may survive it all."

The Grey King
Will Stanton must face a powerful agent of the Dark in this Newbery Medal–winning fourth installment of Susan Cooper’s epic The Dark Is Rising Sequence, now with a brand-new look! There is a Welsh legend about a harp of gold, hidden away within a certain hill, that will be found by a boy and a white dog with silver eyes—a dog that can see the wind. Will Stanton knows nothing of this when he comes to Wales to recover from a severe illness. But when he meets the strange boy Bran and his white dog, memory wakes in Will. For Will is the last-born of the Old Ones, immortals dedicated to saving the world from the forces of evil, the Dark. It is his task to use the golden harp to wake the six who must be roused from their long slumber in the Welsh hills to prepare for the last battle between the Dark and the Light. But first, with help from Bran, Will must face his most terrifying opponent yet: the Grey King.
Glass, Irony, and God
Anne Carson's poetry - characterized by various reviewers as "short talks", "essays", or "verse narratives" - combines the confessional and the critical in a voice all her own. Known as a remarkable classicist, Anne Carson in Glass, Irony and God weaves contemporary and ancient poetic strands with stunning style. This collection includes: "The Glass Essay", a powerful poem about the end of a love affair, told in the context of Carson's reading of the Bronte sisters; "Book of Isaiah", a poem evoking the deeply primitive feel of ancient Judaism; and "The Fall of Rome", about her trip to "find" Rome and her struggle to overcome feelings of a terrible alienation there.
Not Quite White
A novel exploring the tensions between the Welsh and the English. It's a passionate defence of cultural and political identity, and a plea for tolerance. It's also a sustained attack on the forces of small-town bigotry and corruption. But, above all, it's an acknowledgement of the subtleties and ambiguities that exist in even the most entrenched at
