Designed to meet the requirements for students at GCSE and A level, this accessible educational edition offers the complete text of Never Let Me Go with a comprehensive study guide. Intended for individual study as well as class use, Geoff Barton's guide: - clearly introduces the context of the novel and its author;- examines in detail its themes, characters and structure;- looks at the novel in the author's own words, and at different critical receptions;- provides glossaries and test questions to prompt deeper thinking. In one of the most memorable novels of recent years, Kazuo Ishiguro imagines the lives of a group of students growing up in a darkly skewed version of contemporary England. Narrated by Kathy, now thirty-one, Never Let Me Go hauntingly dramatises her attempts to come to terms with her childhood at a seemingly idyllic school, Hailsham, and with the fate that has always awaited her and her closest friends in the wider world. A story of love, friendship and memory, Never Let Me Go is charged throughout with a sense of the fragility of life.

Published to coincide with an exhibition at Open Eye Gallery in Liverpool, The Water's Edge combines essays, first-person accounts, and stunning photographic images to tell the story of the women who worked, and continue to work, in and around the city's waterfront, or who abandoned urban lifeto earn a living at sea. At the heart of the project are Michelle Sank's remarkable and vibrant portraits, alongside the women's own stories - alternately confident, vulnerable, even otherworldly. Joanne Lacey's introduction reveals the background to this fascinating project and its origins in herown family history. Roy Exley's Afterword also offers some reflections on Michelle Sank's striking photographic practice.
