Images of Table Mountain is a visual description of the inequalities that exists between the different races that reside in Cape Town with Table Mountain as the on characteristic that they all have in common. Images of Table Mountain depicts the vast differences between Capetonians as well as their interrelations. The black and white images strongly depict the difference in the lifestyles and class of Capetonians. Irrespective of whether Lurie captures a well-heeled white European family lunching at the Waterfront, or a black African woman passing a cash store in Langa, what matters is the photographer's ability to level these worlds.

The Cambridge History of Japanese Literature provides, for the first time, a history of Japanese literature with comprehensive coverage of the premodern and modern eras in a single volume. The book is arranged topically in a series of short, accessible chapters for easy access and reference, giving insight into both canonical texts and many lesser known, popular genres, from centuries-old folk literature to the detective fiction of modern times. The various period introductions provide an overview of recurrent issues that span many decades, if not centuries. The book also places Japanese literature in a wider East Asian tradition of Sinitic writing and provides comprehensive coverage of women's literature as well as new popular literary forms, including manga (comic books). An extensive bibliography of works in English enables readers to continue to explore this rich tradition through translations and secondary reading.
