"These are my horses." Through cringe-induced empathy, this timeless gift book of shared experiences unites women across history in one of the most powerful forms of resistance: laughter. • Started as a Twitter thread and quickly gained widespread popularity. • Makes a perfect book for women and feminists with a wry sense of humor, millennials, anyone who loves memes and Internet humor, as well as history and art buffs. • You'll love this book if you love books like Men Explain Things to Me by Rebecca Solnit, Milk and Vine: Inspirational Quotes from Classic Vines by Emily Beck, and Awards For Good Boys: Tales Of Dating, Double Standards, And Doom by Shelby Lorman.

Download or read book Dark Sonnet written by Tom McCarthy and Bill Dohar and published by De Profundis Books. This book was released on 2022-06-24 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myles Donne is certain of nothing except that he can never return to Oxford. Two years ago, as a much-admired Jesuit at the threshold of prestige and possibility, he made two irredeemable mistakes: he fell in love with the perfect woman and then killed her in a motorcycle accident. Shattered, he lost his faith, left the priesthood, abandoned his career and decamped to his birthplace in Colorado, where he’s been working in a hardware store, languishing in ignominious limbo. When he receives a dire and dubious plea from his late beloved’s brother Jeremy—a Jesuit and Myles’ estranged friend—against nearly every impulse within him he reluctantly agrees to return to the place of his greatest joy and hardest fall. Jeremy, a genial but lackluster Oxford don, has stumbled upon a tattered and unpublished manuscript by Victorian poet Gerard Manley Hopkins. Though the unfinished poem has been ignored for well over a century, Jeremy believes it contains a series of word puzzles indicating the location of the Cuxham Chalice, a legendary treasure dating to England’s medieval past. Jeremy wants Myles’ help to decode the enigmatic sonnet, locate the chalice and, above all, to keep Jeremy safe from an unknown and dangerous adversary. Upon Myles’ arrival, Oxford is convulsing from the beheading of an innocent boy in an apparent act of Islamist terror and besieged by riots and violent reprisals. Two days into his visit, as Myles faces the discomfiting realization that his friend has exaggerated the sonnet's importance and his personal peril, Jeremy disappears. Myles soon realizes that persons other than Jeremy and his good friend Eva Bashir, college librarian and a secularized Muslim, are interested in the sonnet and its riddles. Myles and Eva appeal to police investigators who are now consumed with another wave of religious violence after a second beheading and cannot be bothered with a missing Jesuit. Determined that Jeremy’s whereabouts must hinge on something in the vexing manuscript, they strive to decipher its layered and intricate adumbrations. Nimble and unyielding interrogation of the sonnet eventually convinces Myles and Eva that Jeremy has been abducted and will be ritually murdered within a matter of hours. They’re equally stunned to discover a seminal connection between the murderer terrorizing Oxford and the cryptic Hopkins sonnet—why he wrote it on his deathbed and the chilling parallels that it draws to the present-day slayings. Interspersed throughout the twenty-first century narrative, a handful of chapters set in the nineteenth century unfold Hopkins’ story in the present tense. In revealing the origins of the poem, this parallel narrative also unveils the unlikely genesis of the serial murders tormenting Oxford. Myles and Eva decode the poem, and in finding where Hopkins hid the chalice they find Jeremy barely alive in a long-abandoned crypt. The discovery that a factotum from Jeremy’s own college is the villain comes as a shock: no one suspected the bland John Brooke of murder, racism and xenophobia, let alone a monomaniacal plot to scapegoat Muslims. Outwardly a treasure hunt, Dark Sonnet’s underlying trajectory is toward redemption: Hopkins’ painful and long-buried secret is told; Jeremy has revived his career and redeemed himself to all doubters; Eva comes to peace with her Muslim roots and agrees to support her daughter’s exploration of Islam; widespread efforts are under way in Oxford to address systemic prejudice and heal wounds through inter-religious dialogue on a grass-roots level; Myles saves Jeremy and heals the wounds from his sister’s untimely death by invoking the kinship and hope he had forsaken upon leaving Oxford. Before the novel’s end, Myles and Eva develop a gradually deepening connection and intensifying physical frisson. For Myles, their painful parting in the penultimate scene is mitigated by his receiving an astonishing and life-changing job offer, a position that would exploit his unusual skill set to investigate and recover historically significant artifacts around the globe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spread of COVID-19 and the consequent pandemic since early 2020 have brought about unprecedented changes in all spheres of global life, creating a new sense of (in)security with social distancing, physical isolation, quarantine and lockdown becoming buzzwords to combat the disease. As in all spheres of life, the first wave of the pandemic posed serious challenges to the world of soccer, with diverse and intriguing responses across the globe. This book documents the early impressions and initial responses of various stakeholders of the soccer world to the challenges of COVID-19 in 2020. It reveals how the process of confrontation, negotiation, adjustment and overcoming against such challenges necessitated and inspired novel responses and strong improvisations from soccer bodies to players, referees to spectators, and journalists to sponsors. This process has revealed abrupt as well as radical changes in the organization, rules, spectatorship and telecast of the game, thereby affecting the game’s cultural dimensions, commercial prospects and political implications. The volume points out that the way soccer has adjusted to the ‘new normal’ standard of the ‘COVID Regime’ has elicited newer meanings and nuanced representations of the game. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal, Soccer & Society.
