The Deceit Birds
Nothing has felt right since Lewis moved into the big house on Blackheath. There's the persistent ticking of a clock he can't find. A smell of flowers in an empty room. Doors that close in the middle of the night, when he's alone. The determined birds outside. He has left his life behind after discovering an affair between his wife and best friend.

And then there's the stranger. A quiet figure, his face hidden beneath the brim of his hat, who sits on a bench at the edge of the heath, day and night, waiting.
Post-Rationalism
Post-Rationalism takes the experimental journal of psychoanalysis and philosophy, Cahiers pour l'Analyse, as its main source. Established by students of Louis Althusser in 1966, the journal has rarely figured in the literature, although it contained the first published work of authors now famous in contemporary critical thought, including Alain Badiou, Jean-Claude Milner, Luce Irigaray, André Green and Jacques-Alain Miller. The Cahiers served as a testing ground for the combination of diverse intellectual sources indicative of the period, including the influential reinvention of Freud and Marx undertaken by Lacan and Althusser, and the earlier post-rationalist philosophy of science pioneere...
Soul Collector
James O'Connor has not moved for many years. He remains motionless, his body completely paralysed, and he is unable to breathe without external assistance, but he survives. He survives because he has chosen to survive and although he cannot move, he controls the world around him, and it will be that way for eternity. Be careful. Listen to him, but always be wary of how powerful this man is. Fear him, not because he will destroy you and not because he is evil, but because he knows. James O'Connor has seen things you can only dream of seeing. He has passed through the valley of the shadow of death and walked where only the dead can walk. He has descended lower than any person can possibly descend and he has returned. www.dateofdeath.co.uk

The Work of Reading
The Work of Reading: Literary Criticism in the 21st Century is a sustained critical examination of the developments in the field of literary studies from the early 2000s onwards within the context of the systematic problems in the humanities. This volume analyzes the origins of the current methods—including New Historicism, empiricism, New Formalism, postcritique, and others—and posits alternatives to the present state of literary studies. At a time when many aspects of current methods show a desire to adopt values from other disciplines to solve internal crises, this volume advocates a renewed focus on questions of form by means of the praxis of aesthetic study, close reading, and other modes of engaging directly with literary texts.
