Book excerpt: FÁILTE TO THE SOS Fiadh Whelan should be over the moon. After months spent burning the midnight oil, at twenty-three years of age, everything she’s worked hard to achieve is finally within her grasp. Incredibly, she has her pick of prestigious apprenticeships. But when her beloved cousin goes missing, Fiadh’s world falls apart. WHERE KNOWLEDGE IS ONLY FOR THE WORTHY She seems to be the only person who won’t accept the neat explanation that Muriel messed up at work and ran away. Fiadh suspects her cousin’s former colleagues are lying; and, determined to find the truth, she accepts an apprenticeship at the firm responsible for her cousin’s disappearance. Her plan is simple: stay under the radar and investigate everyone. Annoyingly, that plan goes to hell when her rival, Keefe ‘swan man’ O’Kelly, sticks his beak where it’s not wanted and delves into a past she’d rather remain buried. AND DARK DEEDS ARE AFOOT In fact, it feels as though everyone around her is hiding secrets, making it hard to know whom to trust. Yet, it’s sink or swim at Heron Early LLP and Fiadh has to compete for a coveted spot in the SoS, a secret society of solicitors she believes may be the key to finding Muriel. But every apprentice eventually learns an unfortunate truth: once a dark deed is signed, sealed and delivered – you’re theirs to control. The Lost Apprentice is a deliciously quirky, dark academia fantasy novel, perfect for fans of The Atlis Six, A Study in Drowning and Ninth House.

Download or read book The Lost World of the Craft Printer written by Maggie Holtzberg and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "She finds that a significant number of printers independently developed similar responses to the deskilling of their craft and the threat of unemployment. Demonstrating a widespread consistency in themes and expressive forms in the printers' occupational narratives, Holtzberg-Call shows that what once served as the printers' rhetoric of tradition is now their rhetoric of displacement. Initiation rites, long apprenticeships, a complex and peculiar jargon, and a gallery of legendary figures once bound hot-metal printers into a specialized, highly regarded occupational folk community. The hot-metal printers' lore has survived in an exemplary form that functions as a source of reconciliation with the demise of their craft." "Holtzberg-Call analyzes how and why the printers traditionalize and idealize their work experience, drawing parallels between the shift from mechanical to computer typesetting and an equally disconcerting transition in the nineteenth century, when Linotype deposed handset type. She also shares her knowledge of the many aspects of hot-metal printing culture, from the life of the tramp printer to the meanings of various printing terms to the operation of a Linotype machine. One gains a sense of the conditions in the old type shops, where long hours, excessive heat, and poorly ventilated fumes from solvent, ink, and molten lead were the crucible in which camaraderie, pride, and fulfillment were forged.".
