Garland J: New England Town Law V1

New England Town Law V1

A Digest Of Statutes And Decisions Concerning Towns And Town Officers

Questo studio offre una prospettiva nuova sul celebre 
 Codex Florentinus
 , il più antico manoscritto completo a trasmetterci il Digesto. L'attenzione si incentra su alcuni fenomeni, che lasciano trapelare, tra gli altri, carenze delle 
 inscriptiones
 in frammenti poi espunti, ed errori originati da testo a margine nelle fonti di consultazione; in più, si pone in risalto il valore dei segni di interpunzione come ripartizione logico-semantica e la loro possibile interrelazione con passaggi selezionati per cui la tradizione restituisce criticità o lezioni divergenti.
Oltre che sostenere con ancora maggior vigore la vicinanza del manoscritto all'archetipo primigenio, nonostante il numero sostanziale di lezioni errate e omissioni, l'autrice si propone di riflettere circa il concetto di testo editoriale 'fluido', e valorizzare il manoscritto come custode, più o meno casuale, di una tradizione del testo parallela o antecedente alla composizione stessa del Digesto.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE SCOTLAND'S NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR DEBUT FICTION FINALIST FOR THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE FOR FIRST FICTION 'Ambitious, wildly original ... it will trick and tease you to the bitter end.' THE TIMES 'Singular and potent ... Unsettling and sharply funny with carefully built-up layers of dis-ease in a comic deadpan.' GUARDIAN 'A masterclass in misdirection.' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Unsettling, puckish, and brilliantly written, this novel is an absolute one-off.' CLAIRE FULLER, Women's Prize shortlisted author of Unsettled Ground 'Magical, perplexing, and funny in a wholly original way.' RACHEL YODER, author of Nightbitch 'A remarkable, preternatural study of a family reckoning with its own history.' THE TELEGRAPH 'An acid trip of a novel. Weird, sinister and darkly funny.' AMY TWIGG, author of Spoilt Creatures 'An unforgettable narrative voice.' FRANCINE TOON, bestselling author of Pine As always with these things, it started with a birthday party. On a bright summer day in 1989 New England, Abi, three years old, vanishes from her aunt's secluded home. Upstairs, her young cousins are looking out of the window. Something is unfolding in the distance at the edge of the forest - something sinister that is watching them back. The adults don't seem to notice that the youngest of the group has disappeared. Too busy bickering over politics and reminiscing about the family's domineering late matriarch, Beezy, they leave the children with no choice but to get Abi back themselves. As the cousins embark on a quest through their grandmother's sprawling estate, buried family secrets come to light and long-awaited plans are set in motion. Will they lose themselves while trying to find her? Idle Grounds is a chilling, evocative and darkly comic debut about childhood, legacy, and the burdens and privileges we carry with us.

Idle Grounds

Falling Like Snow

There's a name for what he is. He prefers not to use it...Stutley Tillinghast lives a solitary life, ostensibly as the minister of a remote rural parish in Rhode Island. For many decades now, what little human contact he allows himself has been brief, frenzied and bloody, and always ends in a shallow grave in his cellar.You and I would have a name for what he is, but he prefers not to use it - he has needs, and when they become unbearable, he fulfils them.Then the girl arrives - 19 years old, she has travelled from the UK to find him. She seems to have his surname, and her resemblance to him is uncanny. She is sick - very sick - and Tillinghast recognises her symptoms all too well. Which means he also knows what she needs...Darkly compelling and irresistibly readable, TILLINGHAST marks the arrival of a major new literary talent.

From the bestselling novelist, travel writer, and "master of the short story" (NPR) comes a brilliant new collection. The stories in The Vanishing Point are both exotic and domestic, their settings ranging from Hawaii to Africa and New England. Each focuses on life's vanishing points-a moment when seemingly all lines running through one's life converge, and one can see no farther, yet must deal with the implications. With the insight, subtlety, and empathy that has long characterized his work, Theroux has written deeply moving stories about memory, longing, and the passing of time, reclaiming his status, once again, as a master of the form.

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING PAUL MESCAL AND JOSH O’CONNOR Winner of the Story Prize Spotlight Award • Winner of the 2025 Mark Twain American Voice in Literature Award • Longlisted for the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction &amp; the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction An ALA Notable Book • One of NPR’s “Books We Love” • One of the Chicago Tribune’s 10 Best Books of 2024 • Best Short Fiction, Kirkus Reviews “Polyphonic fiction. . . . A reminder of the short story’s power. . . . The History of Sound marks Shattuck as one of the form’s brightest lights.” —The Boston Globe A stunning collection of interconnected stories set in New England, exploring how the past is often misunderstood and how history, family, heartache, and desire can echo over centuries In twelve luminous stories set across three centuries, The&nbsp;History of Sound examines the unexpected ways the past returns to us and how love and loss are entwined and transformed over generations. In Ben Shattuck's ingenious collection, each story has a companion story, which contains a revelation about the previous, paired story. Mysteries and murders are revealed, history is refracted, and deep emotional connections are woven through characters and families. The haunting title story recalls the journey of two men who meet around a piano in a smoky, dim bar, only to spend a summer walking the Maine woods collecting folk songs in the shadow of the First World War, forever marked by the odyssey. Decades later, in another story, a woman discovers the wax cylinders recorded that fateful summer while cleaning out her new house in Maine. Shattuck’s inventive, exquisite stories transport readers from 1700s Nantucket to the contemporary woods of New Hampshire and beyond—into landscapes both enduring and unmistakably modern. Memories, artifacts, paintings, and journals resurface in surprising and poignant ways among evocative beaches, forests, and orchards, revealing the secrets, misunderstandings, and love that linger across centuries. Written with breathtaking humanity and humor, The History of Sound is a love letter to New England, a radiant conversation between past and present, and a moving meditation on the abiding search for home.

The History of Sound

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From author Sarah MacLean, a razor-sharp, wildly sexy novel about a wealthy New England family’s long-overdue reckoning . . . and the one week that threatens to tear them apart. “Deliciously impossible to put down.”—Jodi Picoult “Addictive.”—Ali Hazelwood “A gripping inheritance drama, wrapped around a swoony summer romance.”—The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice) A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Time, The New York Times Book Review, NPR, Kirkus Reviews, Library Journal Alice Storm hasn’t been welcome at her family’s magnificent private island off the Rhode Island coast in five years—not since she was cast out and built her life beyond the Storm name, influence, and untold billions. But the shocking death of her larger-than-life father changes everything. Alice plans to keep her head down, pay her final respects (such as they are), and leave the minute the funeral is over. Unfortunately, her father had other plans. The eccentric, manipulative patriarch left his family a final challenge—an inheritance game designed to upend their world. The rules are clear: spend one week on the island, complete their assigned tasks, and receive the inheritance. But a whole week on Storm Island is no easy task for Alice. Every corner of the sprawling old house is bursting with chaos: Her older sister’s secret love affair. Her brother’s unyielding arrogance. Her younger sister’s constant analysis of the vibes. Her mother’s cold judgment. And all under the stern, watchful gaze of Jack Dean, her father’s intriguing and too-handsome second-in-command. It will be a miracle if Alice manages to escape unscathed. A smart and tender story about the transformative power of grief, love, and family, this luscious novel explores past secrets, present truths, and futures forged in the wake of wild summer storms.

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES #1 BESTSELLER'One of our greatest non-fiction storytellers' PATRICK RADDEN KEEFE 'Riveting . . . an unmissable piece of work' MEGAN NOLAN, OBSERVER 'Addictively readable' DOLLY ALDERTON 'Chilling . . . supremely entertaining' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Ridiculously compelling and wonderfully weird . . . wise, timely and extremely funny' LOUIS THEROUX 'If you want a totally compelling live mystery that will make you burn for justice, READ THIS BOOK URGENTLY' MARINA HYDEThe million-copy bestselling author of The Psychopath Test returns with a shocking, darkly comic trip to the furthest reaches of the masculinity crisisI honestly have no clue what is going on. This is very weird. We left. Was completely fucked. All good now.When Jon Ronson received a series of disquieting texts from his son Joel who'd been lured to a mysterious castle in the forests of New England late one night, it sets Ronson Sr. off on an adventure into an underworld of unmoored and disaffected men.As Jon deepens his investigation into the castle and the wider 'man crisis' - where some are feeling tossed around in a sea of conflicting ideologies of what it means to be a man - urgent questions come to light. What exactly is 'Princessing'? Why did a lawn care influencer dress as a baby in front of billions of online viewers, with catastrophic results? And more pressingly, why are two recently released murderers on their way to pay Jon a visit?From the death of utopian factory towns to the false promise of YouTube influencer culture, Jon shows us our rapidly changing world like never before, and the men caught in the middle. A world drained of purpose, of collapsing institutions, where a new era of disinhibited behaviour has taken hold of our online and real-world selves. And as the castle mystery twists and turns into a cat-and-mouse story, will Jon be able to discover its terrifying secret hidden from the world?THE CASTLE marks Jon Ronson's triumphant return to the written page. Utterly hilarious and criminally entertaining, this is one of our greatest non-fiction writers at the top of his game: diagnosing our societal frailties in a narrative of blistering pace, insight and intensity.

360° NordAmerika. Kanada und USA - Reisen, Natur und Gesellschaft

Ontario und das benachbarte Québec stehen im Fokus dieser Ausgabe: Karl-Hans Kern nimmt uns mit auf eine herbstliche Rundreise - mit Stopps unter anderem im Thousand Islands National Park und Parc national de la Mauricie. Auf den Spuren von "Chief Inspector Gamache" aus den Krimis der Bestsellerautorin Louise Penny war Martin Wein unterwegs - und hat viel Wissen von den Schauplätzen mitgebracht. Nach seiner Reportage ist ein Buch der Autorin fast schon Pflichtlektüre. In die ganz eigene Welt unterhalb von Montréal ist Ole Helmhausen hinabgestiegen: Die Ville Souterraine gilt laut Guinness World Records als größtes unterirdisches Fußgängernetz der Welt. Wiederum in Alberta nimmt uns Jörg Michel mit in seine zwischenzeitliche Heimat: Er hat mehrere Jahre in Banff und Jasper gelebt und stellt nun zehn besonders lohnende Stopps, Aktivitäten und Unterkünfte vor. 
Südlich der Grenze lässt sich in Wisconsin manches entdecken, was Einwanderer aus Deutschland und anderen europäischen Ländern an kulinarischer Tradition mit in die Vereinigten Staaten gebracht haben. Bei einer Rundreise am Westufer des Lake Michigan erwartet Besucher zudem ein vielfältiger Mix aus der Natur mit 15.000 Seen, NFL und Harley Davidson. Und ebenfalls im Norden der USA lockt Neuengland - nicht nur im Herbst, wie Christiane Flechtner zu berichten weiß.Eine der ältesten Städte Amerikas hat Verena Wolff für Sie erkundet: Mobile in Alabama. Christian Dose war auf einem Roadtrip in Kalifornien unterwegs. Besonders begeistert hat ihn Lake Tahoe, für viele der schönste Bergsee der USA. Und weiter südlich lautet sein Fazit: Mariposa County ist mehr als nur der beliebte Yosemite National Park. Das kleine Mariposa ist ein Goldgräberstädtchen wie aus dem Bilderbuch. Beim anschließenden Besuch des Parks traf er unter anderem Yosemite-Legende Ken Yager, Initiator des sogenannten Facelifts im Park und Gründer des Climbing Museums.
