Kristin Harmel: The Stolen Life of
Colette Marceau

The Stolen Life of Colette Marceau

Space opera's sharpest mind returns to the world of the Imperial Radch in this brilliant standalone from award-winning author Ann Leckie. The Temporal Location of the Radiant Star has always been a source of both conflict and hope for the people of Ooioiaa. However, the imperial Radch see it only as an inconvenience, an antiquated religious site soon to be absorbed into their own, superior culture. But local politics is complicated, and the Radch have made one last concession: One last man will be allowed to join the mummified bodies in the temporal location to become a "living saint". But this one decision will ripple out to affect every part of the city. Amidst a slowly worsening food shortage, riots, and a communication blackout from the rest of the Radch Empire, a religious savant will entertain visions of his own sainthood, a socialite will discover zer comfortable life upended, and a young man sold into servitude will find unlikely escape.

Radiant Star

Penguin Modern Classics

'His writing is not about something; it is that something itself' Samuel Beckett James Joyce's towering genius as a novelist has often overshadowed his achievements as a poet, yet his verse occupies a pivotal position in his career. This new edition comprises all the poetry that was published in Joyce's lifetime, including his highly accomplished 1907 debut Chamber Music, which fused exuberant lyricism with sharp irony, and the later collection Pomes Penyeach, which confronted adultery, jealousy and betrayal. Also included here are the satirical poems 'The Holy Office' and 'Gas from a Burner', and 'Ecce Puer', written for his new-born grandson. With a new introduction and notes by Clare Hutton.

It is only James Joyce's towering genius as a novelist that has led to his comparative neglect as a poet. And yet his poems not only occupy a pivotal position in Joyce's career, they are also magnificently assured achievements in their own right. 'Chamber Music' is an extraordinary début, fusing a broad swathe of styles with characteristically sharp irony and joyful verbal exuberance. 'Pomes Penyeach' confronts painful personal issues of adultery, jealousy and betrayal and so paves the way for the more detached and fully realized treatment of these feelings in Joyce's masterpiece, Ulysses. Also included here is 'Ecce Puer', written for his new-born grandson, as well as juvenilia, satires, translations, limericks and a parody of Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

Halo

"2552. The theocratic military alliance known as the Covenant is showing no mercy as it continues to assault every human world it encounters, but in the way lies humanity's greatest champion, the super-soldier Spartan John-117--the Master Chief. Together with his AI companion Cortana and the last remaining Spartans, the galaxy-spanning fight rages on two fronts following the destruction of the human military stronghold Reach by Covenant forces and the mysterious artificial ringworld known as 'Halo' at the hands of the Master Chief"--Back cover.

The New York Times bestselling aftermath of Halo: Combat Evolved featuring the Master Chief—part of the expanded universe based on the award-winning video game series! 2552. The theocratic military alliance known as the Covenant is showing no mercy as it continues to assault every human world it encounters, but in the way lies humanity’s greatest champion, the super-soldier Spartan John-117—the Master Chief. Together with his AI companion Cortana and the last remaining Spartans, the galaxy-spanning fight rages on two fronts following the destruction of the human military stronghold Reach by Covenant forces and the mysterious artificial ringworld known as “Halo” at the hands of the Master Chief. One faction—a squad of Spartans lead by Blue Team’s Fred-104 and Kelly-087—is trapped on the glassed surface of Reach, the only planet they’ve ever known as home. And beneath this ruined world, Dr. Catherine Halsey has discovered an ancient secret...one that could alter the course of the war. Meanwhile, the Master Chief and Cortana lead a second group toward a gathering of Covenant warships, as the United Nations Space Command’s worst nightmare has finally come true: the Covenant has discovered the location of Earth and is forming a massive fleet to utterly destroy it, as well as all who oppose the indomitable will of the Prophets…

HALO: First Strike

WINNER OF THE AKUTAGAWA PRIZE 'So bracing, so strange and humane . . . I loved it.' SHARLENE TEO, author of PONTI 'Funny . . . All the people in this novel are alive.' HIROMI KAWAKAMI, author of STRANGE WEATHER IN TOKYO 'Witty and sharp . . . I devoured it.' NATALIE SUE, bestselling author of I HOPE THIS FINDS YOU WELL 'A slim but impactful novel that will make you laugh and think' DAZED The power dynamics of the office are never more obvious than when it comes to food: mandatory lunches with the boss, the colleague who tries to curry favour with home-baked goods, discovering the discarded remnants of someone else's late-night binge . . . In their Saitama office, Ashikawa is the kind of woman Nitani knows he will likely marry: sweet, obliging, and determined to wean him off his addiction to instant noodles. But he finds himself increasingly unable to respect her - or the sugary treats she shares around the workplace, winning their colleagues' affection with baking rather than hard work. Oshio is bolder and uninhibited - she is Nitani's drinking buddy. In the oppressive office atmosphere, the pair grows closer, both outsiders struggling with the rigid status quo. Driven to behave in increasingly absurd ways by the workplace rules that govern their lives, they must navigate the tensions of modern life: between leisure and hard work; indulgence and restraint; the promise of delicious food, and the reality of a lonely pot noodle.

Studies in Penal Theory and Ethics

This book explores the connections between punishment theory and punishment practice It shines a much-needed light on the relation between how punishment is experienced by those subjected to it (and others), and the more general consideration of what justifies punishment in the first place. Leading experts in the field weigh up what is appropriate punishment - both in quantitative and in non-quantitative ways. It explains why punishment is so difficult to justify, looks at the compatibility of modes and processes of penal sanctions, and explore how best to achieve the aspiration to set reasonable terms for future coexistence through state punishment. The book addresses key topics such as life imprisonment, what is at stake when we use prisons to punish, and how criminal offenders can be successfully integrated into society. It considers how we know whether we over-punish offenders, what we should do in response to excessive punishment, and the possibility of replacing punitive systems with non-punitive ones. Overall, the book makes a groundbreaking contribution to the philosophy of punishment, explicitly connecting general, abstract questions about the moral and political justification of punishment with empirical insight into the realities and experiences of punishment practices.

Punishment Theory Meets Punishment Practice

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

'A superlative novel by one of our most perceptive writers' Julia Armfield

Critical Criminological Perspectives

This edited book centres the experiences of groups and individuals who have historically received little attention in the broader framing of victimology, victims movements and wider society. With a mainstream political discourse underpinned by conceptions of deservingness and idealised constructions of victimhood, many groups and individuals— including sex workers, non-human animals, sexual minorities, families of the convicted, and people from working-class communities are marginalised from important debates. This book provides an intersectional examination of victimisation with a discussion of new and existing forms of victimisation linking to theories. It&nbsp;has four themed sections on: hidden violence and abuse,&nbsp;co-victims and retraumatization, recognizing and restoring hidden and unrecognized victims&nbsp;and non-human victims. It supports the need for greater recognition and understanding of these groups, the ethical implications of current and future policy and practice, and innovations in theory and conceptual debates. It speaks to&nbsp;the disciplines of Sociology, Criminology, and Social Work, and for anyone who works with victims in practice.Dr Ian Mahoney
 &nbsp;is Senior Lecturer in Criminology and Deputy Director of the Centre for Crime, Offending, Prevention and Engagement at Nottingham Trent University, UK. His research is currently focused around exploring memetic warfare, and understanding and addressing the harms and impacts of crime and contact with the justice system across diverse groups. Drawing upon Transformative Justice principles he is currently exploring approaches to better understanding societal barriers to effective rehabilitation and reintegration.
 &nbsp;Dr Hind Elhinnawy
 &nbsp;is Senior Lecturer in Criminology at Nottingham Trent University, UK, and Chair of the Critical Criminology and Social Justice Research Group. Her work bridges feminist, anti-racist, and decolonial scholarship with grassroots activism, focusing on marginalised voices and structural inequality. Hind’s research interrogates the politics of recognition, epistemic injustice, and the silencing of minoritised communities—particularly Muslim women, and survivors of institutional harm. Hind’s activism includes a landmark legal case in Egypt that led to changes in family law, securing recognition for single mothers and children born outside wedlock.

Hidden, Unheard and Unrecognized Victims

What if we&nbsp;did&nbsp;abolish police, courts or prisons? Where would we turn for justice? Do we need to have laws? Punishment? These questions are not just the preoccupation of an abolitionist pipedream. Their answers exist already, if only we know where to look.

We Make Our Own Justice&nbsp;introduces the reader to communities around the world who are already resolving harms and conflicts themselves, without looking to the state or judiciary. The book explores a number of locations where alternative forms of justice, peace-keeping and adjudication are taking place. With particular focus on indigenous- and women-led movements from across Mexico, Argentina, Rojava and the USA, Marina Sitrin looks at how each came to be, as well as the theoretical and political underpinnings of the process.

The book allows the reader to reflect on the ways in which the seeds of these alternative forms of justice and adjudication have been planted and nurtured over time-often over decades-and to consider the possibilities for other communities and regions to produce something similar.&nbsp;We Make Our Own Justice&nbsp;offers an invaluable resource as we seek to transform our neighbourhoods, groups and communities into abolitionist spaces in theory and practice.

We Make Our Own Justice

'A great comic vision, one of the few books of the world that can make us laugh aloud on nearly every page' - Anthony Burgess James Joyce's final work, Finnegans Wake, conjures up the dark underground worlds of sexuality and dream with supreme linguistic virtuosity. Here Joyce undermines traditional storytelling and the English language, and confronts the different kinds of betrayal - cultural, political and sexual - that he saw at the heart of Irish history. Dazzlingly inventive, with passages of great lyrical beauty and humour, Finnegans Wake remains one of the most remarkable works of the twentieth century. 'Here words are not the polite contortions of twentieth-century printer's ink. They are alive. They elbow their way on to the page, and glow and blaze and fade and disappear' Samuel Beckett With a new introduction by Brian Fox.
