The Seamstress of Ourfa
The Seamstress of Ourfa, by Victoria Hardwood Butler-Sloss, richly recreates the culture of the Armenian community in Ourfa at the tail end of the Ottoman Empire. The first in a trilogy; a sweeping epic novel of love as a family forced into exile by genocide search for their new home.
The Wandering Who
An investigation of Jewish identity politics and Jewish contemporary ideology using both popular culture and scholarly texts. Jewish identity is tied up with some of the most difficult and contentious issues of today. The purpose in this book is to open many of these issues up for discussion. Since Israel defines itself openly as the ‘Jewish State’, we should ask what the notions of ’Judaism’, ‘Jewishness’, ‘Jewish culture’ and ‘Jewish ideology’ stand for. Gilad examines the tribal aspects embedded in Jewish secular discourse, both Zionist and anti Zionist; the ‘holocaust religion’; the meaning of ‘history’ and ‘time’ within the Jewish political discourse; the anti-Gentile ideologies entangled within different forms of secular Jewish political discourse and even within the Jewish left. He questions what it is that leads Diaspora Jews to identify themselves with Israel and affiliate with its politics. The devastating state of our world affairs raises an immediate demand for a conceptual shift in our intellectual and philosophical attitude towards politics, identity politics and history.

This includes material written by Haus at the time for his cast, announcements of the productions in the media, newspaper reviews and academic articles about the productions, conference contributions, and reflections by cast members (both professional actors and university faculty) and designers (set, costume, light, music). His work in Cyprus and Greece led to further collaborations on productions of ancient Greek plays across the world.
The Experiment
Myrto Azina Chronides'sbook attempts to unify subtly connected narratives, partial tales that lean toward the structure of a more synthetic prose piece, but which cannot be regarded as either novella or novel. The book does not fit within any traditional genre of creative prose. The Experiment can be characterized as 'a study on erotic love and the soul'. From the beginning, He and She, take a pledge to undergo an 'experiment', retrace erotic love and their relation by abstaining from carnal contact so as to devote themselves to writing. She, 'a woman in perpetual search' is an unbowed woman who claims her freedom; and He, 'a wise man, a believer in the Socratic "All I know is that I know no...
