The Judgement of Paris
CHILDREN ARE NOT TOYS. Robert knows this now but he didn't when his aunt played with him. He's an intelligent and successful man now . . . but something is missing, and he needs to know what and why. As a boy, he felt like an outsider. It was cold outside, lonely and hard to find someone who understood a boy who said: "When I grow up I want to be a woman." But he found someone. She was his best friend when she died, so it was cold outside again. Robert now has more money than he knows what to do with, and enough time to look for the answer to his prayers. Only, she needed a Dragon Slayer, so it was time to become a new man, whether he liked it or not. Time to go, Robert. You can always wear your shining armour over your tutu.

Transition
In this text, art historian Martin Harrison brings the London of the fifties to life, in all its vigour & fertility. Ranging from painting to sculpture & from photography to architecture, he portrays a city in intellectual & artistic ferment.
Happiness
Martin Harrison (1949-2014) prepared and delivered this final manuscript at the end of a prolific creative life. With the vulnerability of a lover, the poet peels back one cover of truth after another; reckless for the evidence of the senses, he sifts light, sound, and smell. Poems like the skin of a world: breathing, walking, touching. Martin Harrison's culminating poetic achievement is a crossing over - stylistically, thematically, emotionally. Mapping the tragic chiasmus of love and death, it finally asserts the transcendent power of poetry to bear witness, to join us in a greater communion. Cosmopolitan and local, these triumphs of a 'late style' remind us what poetry is when its mastery allows the irony of existence to walk naked and to exult. *** Librarians: ebook available on ProQuest and EBSCO [Subject: Poetry]
Trade Unions and the Labour Party since 1945
First published in 1960. This title is a study of one of the most controversial alliances in British political history. The ‘wage freeze’, Bevanism, the block vote, nuclear disarmament: these are only a few of the points at which the unions’ activities within the Labour Party had roused hot debate. Drawing extensively on previously unpublished material and on discussions with past members of the Labour Movement, the author creates a survey of what the partnership really amounted to.
In Camera
Draws on a broad range of source images and documents to discuss the role of photography, film stills, and mass-media imagery in some of Francis Bacon's most important paintings and stylistic development, in an account that places Bacon's work in a context of the mechanical reproduction process and the influences of his time.
