Otherwise: A Novel by Geoff Camphire (20 Reviews)    Price verified 17 hours ago

Larkin Mullaney has written plenty of obituaries for the small-town newspaper where he works. But never before has he been assigned an obit like this one -- about the beloved local nun who died in a mysterious car wreck earlier this week. There are just a few nagging questions. Was it Larkin who was driving on the same stretch of dark highway when the church van swerved and careened off a precipice? Who were Larkin and his drinking companion David Diaz following on that night anyway? And why does Larkin feel like he's stumbled onto a secret message, intended for him, hidden in the weirdly unorthodox teachings of the late Sister Helen Kennedy? Larkin needs to figure out exactly what happened before the police do. Maybe he can find some answers in the visitations that he has begun receiving from an otherworldly figure that calls itself The Moon Over Winston, Pennsylvania. From award-winning author Geoff Camphire comes this poignant, thought-provoking tale of fear, guilt, betrayal and forgiveness.

Charley Is My Darling : An evacuee coming of age tale by Joyce Cary (Lume Books) (20 Reviews)    Price verified 24 minutes ago

A charming, accessible tale of childhood and youth, that offers plentiful insight and raises many questions. Charley is a London lad and an evacuee. Initially an outcast, his wit and humour win him friends, although not always of the best type. Among Charley Brown's first deeds as an evacuee to Longwater in the West Country is to let loose the local bull. Boys who one minute had taunted him with the refrain 'Ballocky baldy' (Charley's lice having been evacuated from London with him), were the next minute acknowledging him as their natural leader. Charley Brown, one of Joyce Cary's most uproarious and memorable creations, is a love and a terror. He is a quivering jelly in the hands of girls and women of any age who show him kindness; through the wild force of his imagination he holds children rapt with tales of desperate gunmen with exquisite manners and a taste for the beautiful. He leads his gang into daring acts both grand and bad. As Charley's sweetheart Lizzy Galor rightly puts it, he's every bit as good as the movies... But those movies don't always have a happy ending. Charley is My Darling will please those who already enjoy the work of Cary. Readers with an interest in social history, education and child development will also enjoy it. Praise for Charley is my Darling and Joyce Cary: 'To find a novelist who saw more deeply and conveyed more truly you have to go back to Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy, Balzac and Goethe, Mann and Hesse' - Bernard Levin 'One of the best of our novelists, certainly one of the most original, in the great early tradition of Defoe and Fielding' - Elizabeth Bowen 'Whenever I am idle I choose a Cary novel in the way I might seek a friend's company, and it is not long before I am encouraged, inspired to write' - Paul Theroux Joyce Cary was born in 1888 into an old Anglo-Irish family and educated at Clifton. He studied art, first in Edinburgh and then in Paris, before going up to Trinity College, Oxford in 1909 to read law. On coming down he ...
