Wild Boy has been covered in hair since birth; he's the missing
link, a monster, a sideshow spectacle. Condemned to life in a
travelling freakshow, excluded from society and abused by his
master, he takes refuge in watching people come and go at the fair
- and develops a Sherlock Holmes style talent for observation and
detection. But when there's a murder, suspicion turns on Wild Boy,
and he and the feisty redhaired acrobat Clarissa Everett find
themselves on the run from a London-wide manhunt. Together, the
detective and the acrobat must solve clues to identify the real
killer.
A high-spirited, eye-opening, appetite-whetting culinary travel adventure that tells the story of the last hundred years of Russian power through food, by an award-winning Polish journalist who’s been praised by both Timothy Snyder and Bill Buford.
In the gonzo spirit of Anthony Bourdain and Hunter S. Thompson, Witold Szabłowski has tracked down—and broken bread with—people whose stories of working in Kremlin kitchens impart a surprising flavor to our understanding of one of the world’s superpowers.
In revealing what Tsar Nicholas II’s and Lenin’s favorite meals were, why Stalin’s cook taught Gorbachev’s cook to sing to his dough, how Stalin had a food tester while he was starving the Ukrainians during the Great Famine, what the recipe was for the first soup flown into outer space, why Brezhnev hated caviar, what was served to the Soviet Union’s leaders at the very moment they decided the USSR should cease to exist, and whether Putin’s grandfather really did cook for Lenin and Stalin, Szabłowski has written a fascinating oral history—complete with recipes and photos—of Russia’s evolution from culinary indifference to decadence, famine to feasts, and of the Kremlin’s Olympics-style preoccupation with food as an expression of the country’s global standing.
Traveling across Stalin’s Georgia, the war fronts of Afghanistan, the nuclear wastelands of Chornobyl, and even to a besieged steelworks plant in Mariupol—often with one-of-a-kind access to locales forbidden to foreign eyes, and with a rousing sense of adventure and an inimitable ability to get people to spill the tea—he shows that a century after the revolution, Russia still uses food as an instrument of war and feeds its people on propaganda.

Historically, women of color have experienced discrimination based
on the double jeopardy of race and/or ethnicity, and gender in
their quest for access and advancement in higher education. Today's
women of color in higher education however are the beneficiaries of
courageous and committed women predecessors who confronted and
disrupted institutions to attain a higher level of education
(Jean-Marie, 2005). Together with Volume 9, this two-edited volume
focuses on African American, Hispanic American, Native American,
and Asian-Pacific American women whose increased presence in senior
level administrative and academic positions in higher education is
transforming the political climate to be more inclusive of women of
color. Topics include trends and issues, leadership
styles/characteristics, tenure and promotion, mentoring/social
networks, and challenges and opportunities. As a conceptual
framework, the collection of chapters in the two volumes acquaints
readers with a broad overview of the characteristics and
experiences of women of color in higher education. The two volumes
include: "Women of Color in Higher Education: Turbulent Past,
Promising Future" and "Women of Color in Higher Education: Changing
Directions and New Perspectives".

T. C. W. Stinton was a highly respected classical scholar who died
in 1985. He was a Fellow of Wadham College, Oxford, for over thirty
years and devoted his life to teaching, inspiring his pupils with
his own passionate love for the classics. As well as generously
encouraging the work and publications of others, he also spent much
time himself in researching and writing, concentrating mainly on
Greek tragedy. This volume presents twenty-six of Tom Stinton's
essays and reviews, mainly on Greek tragedy, covering his work from
1960 until his death in 1985. The papers include `Euripides and the
Judgement of Paris', `The Scope and Limits of Allusion in Greek
Tragedy', `The Apotheosis of Heracles from the Pyre', and `Greek
Tragic Texts and the Limits of Conservatism'. Sir Hugh Lloyd-Jones,
formerly Regius Professor of Greek in the University of Oxford, has
written a foreword especially for this collection.
Sir Hugh Lloyd-Jones has a worldwide reputation as one of the
foremost classical scholars of his generation. This collection of
papers, which follows on from the two volumes published in 1990,
reflects his exceptionally wide interests in the fields of Greek
epic, lyric, tragedy, comedy, Hellenistic literature, religion, and
intellectual history.
With Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead, Man Booker
International Prize-winner Olga Tokarczuk returns with a
subversive, entertaining noir novel. In a remote Polish village,
Janina Duszejko, an eccentric woman in her sixties, recounts the
events surrounding the disappearance of her two dogs. She is
reclusive, preferring the company of animals to people; she's
unconventional, believing in the stars; and she is fond of the
poetry of William Blake, from whose work the title of the book is
taken. When members of a local hunting club are found murdered,
Duszejko becomes involved in the investigation. By no means a
conventional crime story, this existential thriller by 'one of
Europe's major humanist writers' (Guardian) offers
thought-provoking ideas on our perceptions of madness, injustice
against marginalized people, animal rights, the hypocrisy of
traditional religion, belief in predestination - and caused a
genuine political uproar in Tokarczuk's native Poland.
This four-act comic opera celebrating Shakespeares Sir John
Falstaff was given its first professional performance in 1946. The
libretto, written by the composer, is based on The Merry Wives of
Windsor, and interpolates texts by contemporaries of Shakespeare
such as Christopher Marlowe, Ben Jonson, and Thomas Campion. The
work contains English folksong material and fine examples of the
composer's orchestral lyricism and dramatic flair. Music from the
opera was later adapted to form the cantata In Windsor Forest and
the Fantasia on Greensleeves. For this comprehensive new edition,
the editor (and conductor) David Lloyd-Jones has drawn on all
available sources, providing an authoritative Study Score with
critical commentary. The performance materials are newly-engraved.
The orchestral score, vocal score, choral scores, and the optional
Episode & Interlude are also available on hire. Please note
that this score comes as two separate volumes.

Vaughan Williams wrote Symphony No. 8 between 1953 and 1955 while
in his eighties. It is his shortest symphony and considered by many
to be his least serious. Aside from a few sombre moments, the
symphony is optimistic in mood and displays Vaughan Williams's love
for exotic and colourful combinations of instruments with a
percussion sections that, he said, employs "all the 'phones and
'spiels known to the composer". For this newly engraved edition,
editor David Lloyd-Jones has consulted all extant sources and
materials to create a score matching the composer's intentions. The
full score is completed with Textual Notes and Preface, and
accompanying orchestral parts are available on hire.

Once known, now largely forgotten, these empowering fairy tales have been brought together to inspire a new generation of readers. Discover heroines who outwit giants, fight evil, awaken sleeping princes and, of course, live happily ever after. With a foreword by Kate Pankhurst, author of Fantastically Great Women who Changed the World.
Vaughan Williams's 6th Symphony was composed immediately after the
Second World War and its dramatic and at times violent musical
language was long felt to be a comment on that conflict (though the
composer denied it had any programmatic intent). Its power and
invention were immediately recognized and it has remained part of
the concert repertoire ever since. For this newly engraved edition,
editor David Lloyd-Jones has consulted all extant sources and
materials to create a score matching the composer's intentions.
Fully compatible orchestral parts are available on hire.
