Book excerpt: Flaxborough has its share of fat-cat businessmen—‘wheels’ (in US gangster parlance)... Like the brash Councillor Henry Crispin and snobbish Arnold Hatch, proprietor of the Floradora Country Club. Their bitter rivalry is well known, so when Crispin’s luxury river cruiser, the Lively Lady, is ruthlessly sunk, shortly after Hatch’s night-time shenanigans had been lit up for the world to see, no one expects the feud to die away peacefully. But there is a death, a far from peaceful one, and DI Purbright and Sergeant Love have information that it might be linked with the arrival in town of a certain Sicilian-American gentleman. Witty and a little wicked, Colin Watson’s tales offer a mordantly entertaining cast of characters and laugh-out-loud wordplay. What people are saying about the Flaxborough series: "Colin Watson wrote the best English detective stories ever. They work beautifully as whodunnits but it's really the world he creates and populates ... and the quality of the writing which makes these stories utterly superior." "The Flaxborough Chronicles are satires on the underbelly of English provincial life, very well observed, very funny and witty, written with an apt turn of phrase ... A complete delight." "If you have never read Colin Watson - start now. And savour the whole series." "Light-hearted, well written, wickedly observed and very funny - the Flaxborough books are a joy. Highly recommended." "How English can you get? Watson's wry humour, dotty characters, baddies who are never too bad, plots that make a sort of sense. Should I end up on a desert island Colin Watson's books are the ones I'd want with me." "A classic of English fiction... Yes, it is a crime novel, but it is so much more. Wonderful use of language, wry yet sharp humour and a delight from beginning to end." "Colin Watson writes in such an understated, humorous way that I follow Inspector Purbright's investigation with a smile on my face from start to finish." "If you enjoy classic mysteries with no graphic violence and marvellously well drawn characters then give the Flaxborough series a try - you will not be disappointed." Editorial reviews: "Watson has an unforgivably sharp eye for the ridiculous." New York Times "Flaxborough is Colin Watson's quiet English town whose outward respectability masks a seething pottage of greed, crime and vice ... Mr Watson wields a delightfully witty pen dripped in acid." Daily Telegraph "Arguably the best of comic crime writers, delicately treading the line between wit and farce ... Funny, stylish and good mysteries to boot." Time Out "A great lark, full of preposterous situations and pokerfaced wit." Cecil Day-Lewis "One of the best. As always with Watson, the writing is sharp and stylish and wickedly funny!" Literary Review "The rarest of comic crime writers, one with the gift of originality." Julian Symons "Flaxborough, that olde-worlde town with Dada trimmings." Sunday Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The naked Nun, A Bigfoot broke her BackdoorWarning: This is a story for ADULTS ONLY! It is definitely NOT for children, or angry religious people. This story is a serious work of social criticism that does involve the sexual arousal of the characters and may offend the readers, as it does describe sexual intercourse of various kind, that some may find objective, including such with mystical or extinct creatures. Violence(2/10) xxx(8/10)Summary: Demura, a young beautiful nun is called to meat Sister Angelica at a chapel in the woods, old legends tell of Bigfoots living in that wood, and Demura is soon to find that these legends are true, and moreover, that these Bigfoots are lusting for human women and know how to fulfil all her secret desires. A story filled with explicit erotic action unfolds.Contains: several Bigfoots and two virgin Nuns, engaging in all sorts of explicit descriptive intercourse that keeps the Sisters virginity intact.Reading sample:Angelica let the wet sponge slide over Sister Demura's immaculate skin, her thoughts went back to the moment she found her, she knew she would come, but didn't expect her to be introduced into the revelations of this place so early."Sister?" , she asked her, "Sister, Angelica?" she repeated,looking down, she realized that she had cupped her breast in her hand and was fondling her gently. Yet, she could not imagine what she would do with her. She stroked her wet and glistening skin, so white and pure, andfound herself wishing she could touch more of her. She helped her out of the tub and dried her off, "Now you are all clean again" she said, her eyes staring at her young pure body, the slim hips, the small triangle of hair in her loins, her thin waist and tiny budding breasts.She knelt down in front of her and caressed her skin slowly, touching and stroking her. "Do you want me?" she asked. ... Sethnerf looked onto the small open space behind the chapel, the laughter of women had drawn the bigfoot closer and awoken his curiosity. What he saw was the two most beautiful women he had ever seen, completely naked beside the chapel. And it was plainly clear what they where doing. The first girl was light skinned, very slim with budding breasts and slim hips and waist.Her hair was golden and even her pubic hair had this colour. She was laying down on her back spreading her legs wide apart. The other girl was kneeling between her legs licking her clit while teasing her ass and pussy with her fingers. Automatically Sethnerf hand wandered to his loins. Where the first girl was an exotic young, slim beauty with golden hair and a petite figure, the second girl was short and curvy where a woman should be curvy with a nice belly and huge breasts, that stood up gravity defying with large nipples. Her buttocks where like 2 big juicy pears. Her skin was perfectly smooth without any marks or flaws. Her short hair was dark with a touch of violet. The elder girl was putting her tongue inside the younger girls pussy and licked her. he went closer. The young girl was tensing her body, lifting up her sexy butt, thrashing in wild spasms, her face was a fascinating display of excitement and pleasure. She was moaning and screaming ecstatically. The girls did not seem to worry about anyone looking out for them, Sethnerf decided, that it was time to join in, he walked straight to the girls and grabbed the elder girls buttock, she smiled at him, as he stretched her backside ....

Book Predatory Nuns

  • Author : Brian Titley
  • Publisher : McFarland
  • Release : 2022-06-08
  • ISBN : 1476647178
  • Pages : 173 pages

Download or read book Predatory Nuns written by Brian Titley and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-06-08 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first scandals broke in the mid-1980s, the sexual misconducts of priests have cost the Catholic Church in America more than $4 billion in compensation settlements and incalculable damage to its reputation. Although their crimes have attracted far less attention, predatory nuns have also caused harm. The depredations of these nuns took place in convent novitiates, orphanages, boarding schools for Native Americans, and in Catholic schools, both elementary and secondary. Their victims, male and female, ranged in age from six-year-olds to young adults. This book focuses on the criminal behavior of North American nuns and the responses from church leadership. Mothers superior were outspoken in their refusal to accept responsibility for the crimes committed under their watch, and their inclination was to close ranks and protect the predators, endangering many children and young people in the process. The complainants, on the other hand, were considered nuisances to be pushed aside with the least amount of exposure and expense possible. Straightforward and informative, this text begins by exploring the nuns' vow of chastity and its relationship with human sexuality, followed by dozens of case studies detailing the sexual abuse that nuns committed in various settings.

  • Pages : 258 pages

Download or read book Nuns Behaving Badly written by Craig A. Monson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witchcraft. Arson. Going AWOL. Some nuns in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Italy strayed far from the paradigms of monastic life. Cloistered in convents, subjected to stifling hierarchy, repressed, and occasionally persecuted by their male superiors, these women circumvented authority in sometimes extraordinary ways. But tales of their transgressions have long been buried in the Vatican Secret Archive. That is, until now. In Nuns Behaving Badly, Craig A. Monson resurrects forgotten tales and restores to life the long-silent voices of these cloistered heroines. Here we meet nuns who dared speak out about physical assault and sexual impropriety (some real, some imagined). Others were only guilty of misjudgment or defacing valuable artwork that offended their sensibilities. But what unites the women and their stories is the challenges they faced: these were women trying to find their way within the Catholicism of their day and through the strict limits it imposed on them. Monson introduces us to women who were occasionally desperate to flee cloistered life, as when an entire community conspired to torch their convent and be set free. But more often, he shows us nuns just trying to live their lives. When they were crossed—by powerful priests who claimed to know what was best for them—bad behavior could escalate from mere troublemaking to open confrontation. In resurrecting these long-forgotten tales and trials, Monson also draws attention to the predicament of modern religious women, whose “misbehavior”—seeking ordination as priests or refusing to give up their endowments to pay for priestly wrongdoing in their own archdioceses—continues even today. The nuns of early modern Italy, Monson shows, set the standard for religious transgression in their own age—and beyond.
