Ryan D: Redmond on Dismissal Law

Redmond on Dismissal Law

A piece of land that should not exist; a community established on unstable ground with dreams of utopia. For readers who love literary fiction with a dark imaginative twist, the haunting new novel from the winner of the European Prize for Literature. 'One of the most imaginative and talented Irish writers at work today' Roisín O'Donnell, author of Nesting 'No writer captures the absurdity and beauty of life quite like [Jan Carson]' Sara Baume, author of Seven Steeples 'Warm, sharp and gloriously funny' Sarah Moss, author of Ripeness 'Her best book yet' Heather Parry, author of Carrion Crow ___ In 1958, a politician proposes a plan so absurd it should have remained a footnote in history: drain the largest lake in Ireland to create new land. In Jan Carson's dazzling vision, the plan goes ahead... It's summer 2017 and the last few residents of the Lough Neagh Archipelago, formed over fifty years ago, are facing eviction. The flood planned to combat a devastating algae outbreak around the islands will submerge their homes, forcing them back to the Mainland for the first time in decades. Robert-John and Marion Connolly came to the islands as children, following their father, an anthropologist studying the unique society that had developed there. For many, the Neagh Archipelago represented a chance to reinvent themself, to be free of the prejudices and history of the mainland. But perhaps this utopia wasn't all that it seemed. Marion and Robert-John have grown accustomed to their haunted existence on the Ark, monitoring the mysterious Far Side, where ghostly figures linger and the land swallows secrets whole. How will they cope when they lose everything they've ever known. And will the Ark ever let them go... For fans of the eerie tenderness of Our Wives Beneath the Sea or the political hauntings of Mariana Enriquez, this is the real world made strangely new. _____ 'No one writes like Jan Carson. Surreal times call for surreal stories, and Few and Far Between packages history, horror and redemption in her signature combination of humour and grace.' Sheila Armstrong, author of Falling Animals 'Jan Carson is a born storyteller: her work is so imaginative, whimsical, mischievous and brave, but tender and curious too - you never know where she's going to take you next, so reading her is always an adventure.' Lisa McInerney, author of The Glorious Heresies 'Jan Carson is a unique and very special writer, one of the greatest of the modern fabulists' Donal Ryan, author of Heart be at Peace 'One of the most exciting and original Northern Irish writers of her generation.' Sunday Times

Few and Far Between

'An absolute gem. Dark, funny and iconoclastic' THE TIMES 'Razor-sharp and deeply unsettling while being endlessly entertaining. A triumph.' JENNIE GODFREY, author of THE LIST OF SUSPICIOUS THINGS 'A delicious, literary feast. A wickedly funny and sharply relevant novel of duplicity and betrayal with a glittering cast of literary greats.' ANNA MAZZOLA, author of THE BOOK OF SECRETS 'A masterful novel, OBJECTS OF DESIRE is utterly irresistible; it's dark and wickedly fun. One of my favourite books of the year so far.' FLORA CARR, author of THE TOWER 'A biting, unflinching study of art and deceit . . . Neil Blackmore has achieved his best work yet.' ANNIE GARTHWAITE, author of CECILY *** Hugo Hunter was the most celebrated gay novelist of the 20th century. He published two masterpieces, securing his place alongside the dazzling literary greats of the 1950s, 60s and 70s, and rubbing shoulders with everyone from Truman Capote to James Baldwin, Gore Vidal and George Orwell.But after decades of fame and excess, just as New York City enters the 1980s and awakes to the coming horror of AIDS, Hugo finds himself running out of money. Out of nowhere, he receives an extraordinary lifeline: an offer from his longtime publisher. Two million dollars, for a memoir and a new novel. The money will solve all his problems - except for one thing. Hugo Hunter is an imposter. He stole both of his novels. Now, how far will he go to produce a third? At once dark, moving and deliciously vicious, OBJECTS OF DESIRE traverses the 20th century, featuring an astonishing cast of characters. It is both a colourful glimpse into the lives of the cultural elite, and a tense, gripping story of betrayal, deceit, and literary fraud. *** Praise for Neil Blackmore 'An astounding story . . . I relished every page.' SIR IAN McKELLAN 'One of the most original voices in historical fiction today.' THE TIMES 'Compellingly real.' DAILY MAIL

Hart Monographs in Transnational and International Law

This book delves into the legal and labour history of the Hashemite Kingdom of Iraq to explore the role international law and its institutions played in Iraq's state formation. Focusing on a turbulent period in global and Middle East history, it shows how the case of Iraq became a laboratory for experimentation with the concept of sovereignty by the Permanent Mandates Commission of the League of Nations in Geneva. This resulted in the development of a doctrine of 'semiperipheral sovereignty' to justify Iraq's independence from the Mandate process. This novel doctrine and its operation within the provisions of the 1930 Anglo- Iraq Treaty ensured the maintenance of British dominance over Iraq, especially to safeguard the extraction and transportation of its valuable oil resources to Western markets. The book traces how this legal doctrine impacted the everyday lives of working class Iraqis. It explores the governance of the extraterritorial spaces of capitalist accumulation and labour exploitation, in particular the Iraq Petroleum Company oil fi elds, the Iraq State Railways and the Port of Basra. It goes on to detail how the oil, railway and port workers led by the Iraqi Communist Party effectively organised themselves into a nationalist revolutionary labour movement. They waged an anti-colonial struggle against these imperial legal structures to improve their lot, leading up to the 1948 Wathba, the 1953 Intifada, and ultimately the July Revolution of 1958, which upended the British-sponsored monarchy. Spanning various international archives and Arabic primary source materials, this book offers an example of a social, legal and labour history written from below, centering ordinary working peoples' agency in the historiography of international law. Drawing on Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) and Marxist methodologies, it emphasises the signifi cance of the semi-periphery in the making of the international legal order.

THE INSTANT IRISH TIMES BESTSELLER A WITCHY, RADICAL RE-IMAGINING OF IRELAND'S MOST BELOVED SAINT AND GODDESS 'A bold, luminous gem of a novel and an utter joy from start to finish' ROSIE HEWLETT 'A must-read for anyone who is interested in Irish Mythology' SHAUNA LAWLESS A beautifully written and powerful exploration of one of the most fascinating women in Irish myth' -CAROLINE LEA 'Radiant, inspiring and empowering' BEA FITZGERALD 'One of the best books I've ever read' AMY MCCULLOCH 'A stunning new voice' - PATRICK NESS 'An astonishing talent' - KATE HEARTFIELD In a wild, ancient grove at the edge of winter, a desperate girl prays to the gods for her freedom. Born to a slave mother, sold in marriage to a brutal husband, none have ever listened to Brigid's prayers. But this time, a goddess answers . . . with a vision that will transform Brigid's path forever. Ireland lies on the precipice of change. The new Christian god is coming, a faith that Brigid can bend to her will, building a sisterhood and sanctuary for women with nowhere else to turn. As their numbers grow, so too do the rumours - of just what powers women can hold when they come together. But power, like a flame, consumes as it grows. As Brigid rises, challenging kings, defying bishops, soon she must reckon with what she herself has become. And as her enemies draw closer, eager to reclaim all she has taken from them, what - or who - will she sacrifice to hold on to her legacy? A radical reimagining of Ireland's most beloved saint, Brigid is the story of a woman who could never be caged - by men, by gods, or even by history itself. _______________ PRAISE FOR KIM CURRAN 'An epic tale of war and femininity ... a brilliant work of mythology, fantasy and history' - HANNAH KANER 'Like Madeleine Miller Curran takes centuries of Irish legend and harnesses powerful retellings for modern readers' Juno Dawson 'May be the most important book you will read this year' LUCY HOLLAND

The Keeper

A unique look at crisis leadership and the hard but invaluable lessons that can be learned in difficult and uncertain times. Our fascination with leadership runs deep and has done so for centuries - just witness the books on Nelson, Churchill and Thatcher. But what exactly are the attributes and competencies that separate those who lead effectively from those who won't, don't or can't? For many people, the acid test of true leadership comes during moments of crisis, when the stakes are highest and the decisions most difficult. It's no surprise, then, that our fascination with stories of leaders overcoming great adversity is endless. This interest has been exacerbated in recent years as every organization in the world has found itself in a crisis at some level, whether due to a collapse in sales, an unexpected spike in demand, a logistics nightmare or the sheer uncertainty that the Covid-19 pandemic wrought. Leading from the Frontline offers multiple perspectives of leadership from across multiple types of crisis. Each chapter tells the story of a leader who steered their organization through a particularly tumultuous period. It looks at the challenges they faced, the decisions they were forced to make, the personal pressures they encountered, the lessons they learned and the mistakes they made. It also examines how the crisis they responded to subsequently changed their organization or the environment in which they operate. Including issues of a medical, socio-political, environmental and military nature, while featuring a range of reputational crises case studies, Leading from the Frontline is essential reading for any leader to prepare their organization for uncertain futures.
