Joseph Knight
‘A book of such quality as to persuade you that historical novels are the true business of the writer.’ Daily Telegraph
The Knight
Realizing that a serial killer has been using clues from an ancient manuscript as a blueprint for murderous acts, FBI criminologist Patrick Bowers must prevent a next attack before discovering that he may be the intended victim.
A Theory of Moments
Approaching forty, with the predictable mortgage, career and comfortable surburan lifestyle, James Knight knew he was one of the lucky ones. He loved his wife and he had his health (occasionally the black dog would bite, but he'd learnt to manage this...most of the time), yet something wasn't quite right. Married less than a year, he and Clare weren't finding time for each other or themselves. Surely there must be more to life than the daily commute, the occasional trip away and rampant consumerism? The death of a good friend's mother gave James the perspective he needed to set out on a year-long journey through Latin America and Africa with Clare, doing voluntary work, learning Spanish and dancing whereever and whenever they could. This trip would change their lives in ways they never expected, teaching them that cherishing every moment is what matters above all else.
The Dragon's Journey
The compelling life story of Duy Long Nguyen, a boy who eventually came to realise his mother's dreams. Born in Vietnam, fate saw him eventually arrive in Australia. He found work as a bodyguard and was soon straddling both sides of the law. Turning his back on violence, he realised he had a special gift - the gift to heal.
Void Voices
Void Voices is a descent into the Hell that is our contemporary culture. Inevitably, Trump and Brexit feature. Dante's guide was Virgil; Knight's is an undead T S Eliot. Along the way, the reader is assailed by a cacophony of heterogeneous material, including song lyrics, doctored news stories, lines from old poems, transcriptions of nonsense texts generated by Google Translate. The Hell is that of our culture; it is also that of the poem itself: poem as voice-filled void.
Jamestown, New World Adventure
Two English children are told the story of their grandfather's experiences as one of the original Jamestown colonists of 1607.
The Natural, Moral, and Political History of Jamaica, and the Territories thereon Depending
Between 1737 and 1746, James Knight—a merchant, planter, and sometime Crown official and legislator in Jamaica—wrote a massive two-volume history of the island. The first volume provided a narrative of the colony’s development up to the mid-1740s, while the second offered a broad survey of most aspects of Jamaican life as it had developed by the third and fourth decades of the eighteenth century. Completed not long before his death in the winter of 1746–47 and held in the British Library, this work is now published for the first time. Well researched and intelligently critical, Knight’s work is not only the most comprehensive account of Jamaica’s ninety years as an English colony ever written; it is also one of the best representations of the provincial mentality as it had emerged in colonial British America between the founding of Virginia and 1750. Expertly edited and introduced by renowned scholar Jack Greene, this volume represents a colonial Caribbean history unique in its contemporary perspective, detail, and scope.
