One Man's Candle
Tensions are rife in medieval Norwich and, when tragedy strikes, a young Jew, Deulecresse, is orphaned and thrown homeless, into a hostile world. Exiled from his home and his family's riches, Deulecresse can only find solace in Margaret, a English girl with a troubled home life. Together, the two escape and decide to take to the road to find a new and better life. They soon find, though, that it is a dangerous world out there and the past will always cast a painful shadow. If they want to survive, they must grow up fast but that is easier said than done for a pair with such deep mental wounds. Their hearts slowly entwine into romance but the running has to stop and they must soon face up to their enemies if they want to have any kind of future. In one of the most forgotten episodes of anti-Semitism in history, One Man's Candle follows the human story that comes with a marginalised and victimised people.
Tiki Man
Pere is living the life in central Florida. Money is tight, but odd jobs at the marina keep him in mac 'n' cheese and Chesterfields and pay the few bills that can't be put off. His good buddy Clyde, who lives in an identical condo across the street, can always be relied upon for bait and swapping lies. One day is the same as the next, until his girlfriend, Missy, is sentenced to two-years at Lowell Correctional in Ocala for methamphetamine possession. In Ohio, Missy's ex-husband puts their ten-year-old daughter Tammy on a Greyhound direct to Florida. Skinny and blonde and small for her age, Tammy steps off the bus with only a pack of colored markers and a black trash-bag of dirty clothes. Pere is suddenly a reluctant surrogate father, trying to survive on a shrinking income, and struggling to maintain his own fragile sobriety. Together, Pere and Tammy are an accidental family wandering lost in the land of temporary tags and disability checks, where the smell of caustic chemicals and fried food hangs in the air like wet laundry, and in the course of a single day they find out who needs taking care of, and who, exactly, is taking care of them.
Strobe Life
"The best author you've never read." - Catherine Ryan Hyde, New York Times bestselling author "One of the best American novels to come down the pike in a long, long time." - Chris Nickson, novelist/music journalist -We make love very slowly, partly to keep the water in the tub, but mostly 'cause that's just where we're at. In the haze of the drugs and the vodka, the candles and the steam, it's almost painfully like some very real thing. Like that five minutes of life, a long time ago, with someone else. When I pull out there is a little puff of blood into the water. It hangs there for a moment like a rosebud and then disappears. I don't know why, but it is the saddest goddamn thing I have ev...

Thomas, Lucy and Alatau
This is the first full biography of an unjustly forgotten man: Thomas Witlam Atkinson (1799 - 1861), architect, artist, traveller extraordinaire, author - and bigamist. Famous in his lifetime as 'the Siberian traveller', he spent seven years travelling nearly 40,000 miles through the Urals, Kazakhstan and Siberia with special authorisation from the Tsar, producing 560 watercolour sketches - many published here for the first time - of the often dramatic scenery and exotic peoples. He kept a detailed daily journal, now extensively quoted for the first time with his descendants' cooperation.This is also the story of Lucy, his spirited and intrepid wife and their son Alatau Tamchiboulac, called after their favourite places and born in a remote Cossack fort. They both shared his many adventures and extremes of heat and cold, travelling with him on horseback up and down precipices and across dangerous rivers, escaping a murder plot atop a great cliff and befriending the famous Decembrist exiles.
