Kyriacou Eleni: A Beautiful Way to Die

A Beautiful Way to Die

Michael Mann Project 2

Virago Modern Classics

Combining the scholarship of a historian with the imagination of a novelist, Mary Renault masterfully brings the ancient world to life in this page-turning drama of the Peloponnesian War.

A Virago Modern Classic

The Last of the Wine

Undercover with the Next Generation of Cyber Fraudsters

Scam Nation

From the prize-winning author of The Giant Dark comes a beautiful exploration of the ties that bind us and the scars they leave when they break. Aliyah and Ava arrive in England from opposite corners of the world with dreams built upon Emily Bronte, Brideshead Revisited and Richard Curtis films. Instead, in the shadow of their historic, fairytale campus, they get the sense that they don't belong. The two form a Vita-and-Virginia-like bond, building a world full of stories that they write together. For a time, they are inseparable in their identity as 'strange girls'. When the end of university looms, they will have to return to the world where a devotion like this seems impossible to maintain. Years later, Aliyah has everything Ava wants - a room of her own and a publishing deal - and, worse, the thing Ava was certain neither of them had ever wanted: a sensible doctor husband. Arriving back in London for a mutual friend's hen party, Ava is desperate to unpack the truth of what she really meant to Aliyah. Was what they had - whatever you call it - real? And what will become of the stories they tell themselves about one another?

One week, every three years. Two women come together to test the endurance of their bond and to ask: what if? 2013, England. Ava and Aliya meet at university just outside of London. Ava is the quiet American who didn't come to England to meet boys in Jack Wills sweatpants with gelled hair. She's here for Emily Brontë and Brideshead Revisited. Everything disappoints her until: Aliya. Aliya is shy, earnest and this is the first time she has been away from her parents who live in Pakistan and the sense of freedom is overwhelming. When they meet, there's an immediate spark. While everyone else is getting drunk on love, life, sex, drugs, they are getting drunk on each other. They move in together, become twin-like, wife-like in their devotion. They sleep in the same bed, read out loud to each other, finish each other's sandwiches. But in their very last week, something breaks between them and Ava flies back to America alone. Three years later, Ava swishes into London with her new boyfriend, a director opening a play in London. Aliya is nervous and feels stalled in a life that used to seem full of promise. Meanwhile Ava's been at drama school and her life looks glamorous and exciting. But as the cracks start to appear in the façade, the two begin to find their fragile connection again. Will this be the year they admit their feelings for each other? Or next time? Or the time after that? What readers are saying about Sarvat Hasin: 'Heartbreaking, beautiful, epic. I loved it.' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies 'Blindingly brilliant . . . I cannot wait to read everything she writes.' Daisy Johnson, author of Everything Under 'A beautiful and imaginative reinterpretation that had me spellbound.' Jennifer Saint, author of Ariadne 'A wholly original story.' Guardian

Utterly unmissable literary fiction

Strange Girls

The final instalment in the Chivalry series from a master of historical fiction. The Chivalry series follows young William Gold, who runs away from London to follow the Black Prince, from the killing fields of France, through life as a routier and criminal, and to redemption with the Knights of Saint John, further disillusion and an eventual career as a professional soldier and knight. Rich in the details of life in the High Middle Ages, the series also deals with modern issues about the role of violence in society, rules of conflict and war, and the price that people pay for using violence.

Race and Ethnicity in Psychology

This volume shares innovative methods to treat inequities. Many of these utilize the strengths of culturally grounded approaches to care, including radical healing, training young people of color in civic engagement, and embracing the power of spirituality and creativity.

Written by psychologists, mental health care providers, and researchers, the contributions in this volume challenge inequities from myriad personal and professional perspectives. Many of the contemporary and novel methods used to confront inequities discussed in this book capitalize on the strengths of culturally grounded approaches to help and treatment. These include radical healing, training young people of color in civic engagement, and embracing how spirituality and creativity can help people and communities solve problems and thrive in adverse circumstances. From reconsidering the #MeToo movement to proposing powerful ways to prevent the further legal and cultural prosecution of immigrants in the United States, this book proposes solutions to the most harmful and visible inequity problems across the country. As the only book that addresses the psychology of inequity at the personal and national levels and across different cultural contexts, this volume is a must-read for those looking to solve inequity problems and help victims heal from their insidious effects.

The Psychology of Inequity

A Sea-Grape Tree

What does power sound like? Loud? Brash? Masculine? Here's the truth: if you're a woman, a person of colour, an immigrant or queer, there's often dissonance between how you speak and how we think powerful people sound, i.e. the wealthy white men who have historically set the standard. In this witty and warm guide, speech expert Samara Bay, who has worked with the likes of Gal Gadot, Penélope Cruz and Terry Crews, as well as global leaders in business and politics, offers a new approach to asserting your power in all areas of life. Permission to Speak is packed with expert tips and easy-to-follow exercises, demonstrating that you don't have to speak like the status quo to be taken seriously.

Black Literary and Cultural Expressions

An interrogation of the poetry of Mazisi Kunene that places his work in the context of African literature and the richness of the oral tradition, as well as his political activism that connects him to the wider African diaspora.
 
As Africa's foremost epic poet, Mazisi Kunene occupies a unique place in history. In this study, Dike Okoro illuminates the penetrating insights found in Kunene's poetry and the reasons why his art has been considered as masterpieces grounded in geography, history, and culture. He situates Kunene as a theorist who embraces African tradition - including his adoption of izibongo, Zulu praise poetry - and the role of the artist as a chronicler of his people's history, committed to art as a catalyst for change, not justd South Africa but for Africans around the globe.
 
 These essays and interviews address the post-apartheid reality of South Africa and draw from a repository of rich images found in Kunene's poetry to provide examples of depictions of colonial exploitation in Africa; the rootedness of traditional African culture; women and children who bring hope; and art as a way to effect change. They demonstrate Kunene's profound influence on and in world literature, interrogating his work for its style and connections with poetry by Native Americans and other Indigenous literary traditions. 
 
The Epic Poetry of Mazisi Kunene argues that Mazisi Kunene's poetry centers non-human beings (animals and plants), the pristine environment of the olden days, and the cosmology of his Zulu ethnicity, asserting the relevance of his art - in this 21st-century moment of climate crisis - as both a form of activism and a political tool to the African creative writer.
