As she moved away towards the chapel a puff of wind caught her veil, blowing it back, and they saw she had a scar on her left cheek . . . The Sisters of Béthanie, a French order of Dominican nuns, dedicate themselves to caring for those on the margins of society. But for Soeur Marie Lise, the struggles of these outcast women are entwined with her own troubled past. Once she was Elizabeth Fanshawe, a spirited English girl in postwar Paris, who found herself employed at one of the city's smartest brothels and rose to become the notorious and successful madam known as La Balafrée - the Scarred One. Through Lise's vivid experience of prison, conversion and redemption, Rumer Godden weaves a deeply moving and clear-sighted tale of darkness and hope. But even as Lise makes peace with her past, its legacy is threatening to strike at the heart of the convent itself.

The Last Death of the Year

"Timely, thoughtful and witty" – Merryn Somerset WebbFrom the Industrial Revolution to the internet, capitalism has been a great engine of human progress. But now it stands accused of allowing the greedy few to run riot over the rest of society, exploiting workers and suppliers and recklessly damaging the planet in pursuit of profit. Where did these accusations come from – and are they true?In this lively critique, Spectator business editor Martin Vander Weyer argues that capitalism has indeed lost its moral compass, has lost public trust and is in urgent need of repair.But this is no far-left analysis seeking to champion a thinly veiled Marxist platform. Written from the point of view of a deep admirer of entrepreneurship and private-sector investment as a proven path to innovation and prosperity, The Good, the Bad and the Greedy argues that businesses always operate in a social context and that a 'good' business in a moral sense can also, in a perfect world, be a business that richly rewards its creators and backers.From the writer whom Boris Johnson called 'the most oracular and entertaining business commentator' in London, this thoughtful critique of 21st-century capitalism formulates core principles that separate the good from the bad and the greedy and warns that the system must be reformed and faith in it restored – before the next generation commit the ultimate act of self-harm by rejecting capitalism in favour of something worse.

The Good, the Bad and the Greedy

This 3-volume set examines how suburban spaces shape and reflect human experiences in North America, Europe, and Asia, bringing together works by an international group of scholars who explore suburbia through critical analyses of literature, culture, sociology, history, politics, and urban planning. The multidisciplinary and international scope of each volume offers readers a wide breadth of perspectives. 
 Suburbia Reconsidered
 thus contributes significantly to the expanding field of suburban studies by offering novel insights into the representation of suburbs in literature, the cultural significance of suburban environments, and the socio-economic challenges confronting suburban communities across the globe.
 Volume 1 of this 3-volume set examines the depiction of suburban spaces in 20th- and 21st-century British, American, Canadian, and French literature. The contributors present original perspectives on how suburban environments influence human experiences and identities, as reflected in literature. Chapters in this section also probe the intersections of gender, race, and ethnicity within suburban fiction, and traverse popular genres from detective novels to memoirs.
 By integrating insights from literature, cultural studies, sociology, history, and urban planning,&nbsp;
 Suburbia Reconsidered
 enhances our understanding of suburban spaces and their potential for positive transformation, and encourages scholars to explore new methodologies and perspectives.

Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Suburbia and Literature

Suburbia Reconsidered, Volume 1

INTRODUCED BY JILLY COOPER 'Barbara Pym is the rarest of treasures; she reminds us of the heartbreaking silliness of everyday life' ANNE TYLER If Jane Cleveland and Prudence Bates seem an unlikely pair to be walking together at an Oxford reunion, neither of them is aware of it. They couldn't be more different: Jane is a rather incompetent vicar's wife, who always looks as if she is about to feed the chickens, while Prudence, a pristine hothouse flower, has the most unsuitable affairs. With the move to a rural parish, Jane is determined to find her friend the perfect man. She learns, though, that matchmaking has as many pitfalls as housewifery. 'Over the years, as Barbara Pym replaced Nancy Mitford, Georgette Heyer, even Jane Austen, as my most loved author, I devoured all her books, but Jane and Prudence remains my favourite. Even an umpteenth reading this weekend was punctuated by gasps of joy, laughter, sympathy and wonder that this lovely book should remain so fresh, funny and true to life' JILLY COOPER 'This comedy of manners is a salutary reminder of just how good Barbara Pym was . . . This book is a gem' THE TIMES

A charming and funny tale of match-making misadventures by an author whose fans include Philip Larkin, Alexander McCall Smith and Jilly Cooper.

Jane And Prudence

"The History of the Standard Oil Company" is an exposé about the Standard Oil Company, run by oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller, the richest figure in American history. The inspiration behind this book was largely fueled by author's childhood experiences. Her father worked for Standard Oil and lived through what she called "hate, suspicion, and fear that engulfed the community." As a direct witness to the schemes and horizontal integration of John D. Rockefeller and his associates, Ida Tarbell began building the foundations of "The History of the Standard Oil Company" early on, using her own discontent as a starting point. This book inspired many other journalists to write about trusts and large businesses that attempted to gain monopolies in various industries.
