Handstitched Landscapes and Flowers
Create beautiful landscapes and flowers using handstitching and only six simple stitches. Handstitched Landscapes and Flowers is a beautiful exploration of the potential of embroidery in depicting the natural world. Katrina Witten, who is a regular on crafts channel Hochanda, uses just six simple stitches, delicate embellishments and an array of techniques and fabrics to portray pastoral scenes of fields, flowers and creatures with eye-catching three-dimensional effects. There are ten detailed step-by-step projects that depict, among others, a hedgerow, a bluebell-emblazoned woodland, sunflowers, a butterfly, a poppy field and a summer scene of buddleia and bees.
Corkscrewed
Those Mad Men of the 60s were absolute amateurs compared to their successors in Londons glam and decadent 1980s advertising scene, where money, long lunches and eye-watering expense accounts were the order of the day. From sabotaging the glitzy marble halls of New York advertising awards to hijacking gondolas in Venice, this hilarious novel takes you on a roller-coaster ride through the extravagantly indulgent world of 1980s creative advertising with all its narcissistic fame and glory. Written by one of Australias finest satirists and one its best known 1980s advertising gurus, Corkscrewed will leave you breathless with shock and disbelief, and drooling with envy!

The Canberry Tales
The latest hilarious collection of Rowan Dean's weekly satirical columns in the AFR Weekend poking fun at the craziness of political correctness gone mad, cancel culture and woke identity politics in Australia's modern political world from 2017 to the present, including the demise of Malcolm Turnbull, the rise of ScoMo, Biden, Covid, China, climate change, the MeToo movement, transgenderism and so much more. Aided by his trusted assistant Rowena, Rowan Dean exposes in all its comical cultural chaos the hypocrisy and foibles of our ruling classes, the peccadilloes of our pusillanimous politicians and the absurdity of today's leftist woke dogma. From re-imagining Dr Seuss, re-writing 'Gone with the Woke', uncovering the racists in the Palace, to exposing the lunacy of lockdowns and the lewd tales of Canberra, not since Chaucer has an author had such rick pickings with which to entertain us.

Dostoevsky
Rowan Williams explores the intricacies of speech, fiction, metaphor, and iconography in the works of one of literature's most complex and most misunderstood, authors. Williams' investigation focuses on the four major novels of Dostoevsky's maturity (Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Devils, and The Brothers Karamazov). He argues that understanding Dostoevsky's style and goals as a writer of fiction is inseparable from understanding his religious commitments. Any reader who enters the rich and insightful world of Williams' Dostoevsky will emerge a more thoughtful and appreciative reader for it.

Anglican Identities

Way Beyond Satire
Following the turbulent, crazy, roller-coaster years of Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard, by late 2013 Australians were looking forward to a steady new era of boring, conservative, grown-up government under Tony Abbott and his Coalition. Little did they know, the real fun had just begun. In this hilarious selection from his weekly Australian Financial Review satirical columns, Rowan Dean chronicles Australia's recent political mayhem, sorry, we mean history, in his unique tongue-in-cheek, ruthlessly subversive style. From the mysterious Granola virus to an outbreak of Todgers in the Lodge; from performing the Same Sex Kama Sutra and resisting the pull of Gravitational Waffle; from Sharia Law in ...
