Book excerpt: A young man will go to any length to uncover the truth about his girlfriend’s death in this “expertly crafted, psychologically ambitious” thriller (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Jarlath “Jar” Costello never got over his girlfriend’s suicide five years ago. In fact, he’s certain she’s still alive. The brilliant young Cambridge student was crushed by the loss of her father. It’s said that she leapt to her death off the cliffs of Norfolk. The case is closed . . . though her body was never found. Jar still sees Rosa everywhere—a face on the train, a figure on the cliff. He wonders if he might be going mad. Then he gets an imploring email: “Find me, Jar. Find me, before they do. . . .” As Jar digs into the past, he enters a dark underworld where nothing is as it seems, and no one can be trusted. He is soon thrust into the heart of a larger intrigue that may finally shed some light on Rosa’s death . . . even as it dangerously threatens his own life.

Download or read book Rambling Man Walks The Ridgeway written by Andrew Bowden and published by Rambling Man. This book was released on 2013-01-26 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All good journeys start somewhere. There is always a beginning. There is always the place where it all starts. The place where the journey starts may be amazing. It may be mundane. It may be glamorous. It may be dour. It may be exciting and adventurous. Or it may be besides a road a few miles away from Swindon. The Ridgeway goes for the Swindon based option to start its journey; a National Trail that follows the part of the absolutely ancient former "green" road known as The Ridge Way. The modern route is just a bit shorter the original 400 mile one. The National Trail was opened in 1973 and provides a route for walkers connecting Overton Hill in Wiltshire with Ivinghoe Beacon in Buckinghamshire; an 87 mile route with ancient forts, barrows, white horses, monuments and more. Or, if you're Rambling Man, you get rural pubs playing trance music and revelations about 1980s television programme Button Moon, that shake you to the core.

Download or read book Simple Forms written by Douglas Gray and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simple Forms is a study of popular or folk literature in the medieval period. Focusing both on the vast body of oral literature that lies behind the written texts which have survived from the medieval period and on the popular literature provided by literate authors for audiences of hearers or readers with varying degrees of literacy, Douglas Gray leads new readers to a productively complicated understanding of the relationship between medieval popular culture and the culture of the learned. He argues that medieval society was stratified, in what seems to us a rigid way, but that culturally it was more flexible. Literary topics, themes, and forms moved; there was much borrowing, and a constant interaction. Popular tales, motifs, and ideas passed into learned or courtly works; learned forms and attitudes made their way in into popular culture. All in all this seems to have been a fruitful symbiosis. The book's twelve chapters are principally organised genre, covering epics, ballads, popular romances, folktales, the German sage, legends, animal tales and fables, proverbs, riddles, satires, songs, and drama.

Download or read book The New Circlemakers written by Andrew Collins and published by ARE Press. This book was released on 2009-03 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the mystery of the crop circles? Are they manmade or supernatural? Today the majestic crop formations grace the very same pastures of southern England that in the past were the haunts of fairies, hobgoblins, and mysterious lights. Here, too, are some of Britain's most spectacular prehistoric landscapes: Stonehenge, Avebury, and Silbury Hill all act as ominous backdrops to the crop circle phenomenon. Did our ancestors know something about this beguiling, enchanting landscape that we are only now waking up to for the first time? Is there a higher intelligence responsible for such creations, and if so, who are they and what are they trying to tell us? Bizarrely, the answer might lie not here on earth, but 37,000 light years away in the constellation of Cygnus, the Northern Cross, where lurks a star perhaps responsible not only for the foundation of the world's earliest stone monuments but for the emergence of humanity itself.

Download or read book The Relative Hills of Britain written by Alan Dawson and published by Cicerone Press Limited. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many hills are there in Britain? Has anyone climbed them all? Where is there for hill walkers to go in the south of England? What is a hill anyway? The answers to these and other questions will be found in The Relative Hills of Britain. This book dispenses with the common assumption that a hill must be at least 2000ft high to be worth climbing. Instead it concentrates on listing all the hills that are relatively high compared to the surrounding land, rather than compared to sea level. This approach leads to some interesting results: for example, the highest points in the Cotswolds and Chilterns, Campsies and Quantocks are all included, as well as the main summits on numerous Scottish islands, whereas well- known mountain summits such as Cairn Gorm, Bowfell and Carnedd Dafydd do not qualify. As well as being an invaluable reference work for all walkers, this book contains a fascinating collection of not too serious facts and figures about the Marilyns, as these relative hills have been called. The book is illustrated by a set of photographs and a large number of very clear maps, which make it easy to locate all the hills in each region.
