The Glorious Summer Series Books 1-3
Author: CP Ward
Publisher: CP Ward
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 669
Book Description
The first three delightful and heartwarming romantic comedies in CP Ward's Glorious Summer Series. Summer at Blue Sands Cove Tired of the city, Grace Clelland returns to Blue Sands, the quiet Cornish seaside village where she grew up. There she will meet old flames and old friends, rekindle old loves and ignite new ones in a novel that will have you dreaming of the soft crash of the waves on the shore, the feel of sand between your toes, overloaded ice-creams and smoky beach barbeques. Summer at Tall Trees Lake When worryingly-close-to-forty Jane Bennett wins a tent in an employee of the month competition, her best friend Annabel suggests they take the unremarkable prize and head for the Cornish countryside. Jane, unmarried, unheralded, and—in her own eyes at least—unimportant, can come up with no decent excuse. After a series of mishaps, the two women find themselves at the charming but failing Tall Trees Lake Camping and Caravan Park, where the family-owned park’s errant son, Dean Stinton, has just returned from overseas, into the middle of a battle for the park’s survival against its predatory neighbour, Tall Trees Premier, run by his jilted ex-lover, Kelly Coldwinter. Summer at Harbour View House After losing her flat to a fire, thirty-something and single Natasha Bright’s fortunes appear to be on the rise when a friend asks her to look after a beachside summerhouse in the quaint Cornish village of Penkoe for a few weeks. Together with Hannah Lucas, her bubbly and equally-homeless neighbour, Natasha sets off for her Cornish paradise. However, the promised glass palace turns out to be … well, less so, it rains endlessly, the village is a nightmare of oddball locals, and the man next-door is a chauvinist pig. Only as Natasha and Hannah begin to delve deeper do they start to understand just what it is they have found, and how Penkoe just might be a paradise after all…

All the Living and the Dead
Author: Hayley Campbell
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 1250281857
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
A deeply compelling exploration of the death industry and the people—morticians, detectives, crime scene cleaners, embalmers, executioners—who work in it and what led them there. We are surrounded by death. It is in our news, our nursery rhymes, our true-crime podcasts. Yet from a young age, we are told that death is something to be feared. How are we supposed to know what we’re so afraid of, when we are never given the chance to look? Fueled by a childhood fascination with death, journalist Hayley Campbell searches for answers in the people who make a living by working with the dead. Along the way, she encounters mass fatality investigators, embalmers, and a former executioner who is responsible for ending sixty-two lives. She meets gravediggers who have already dug their own graves, visits a cryonics facility in Michigan, goes for late-night Chinese with a homicide detective, and questions a man whose job it is to make crime scenes disappear. Through Campbell’s incisive and candid interviews with these people who see death every day, she asks: Why would someone choose this kind of life? Does it change you as a person? And are we missing something vital by letting death remain hidden? A dazzling work of cultural criticism, All the Living and the Dead weaves together reportage with memoir, history, and philosophy, to offer readers a fascinating look into the psychology of Western death.

Living with the Sea
Author: Mike Brown
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429685424
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The seas and oceans are currently taking centre stage in academic study and public consciousness. From the plastics littering our seas, to the role of climate change on ocean currents from unequal access of marine resources to the treacherous experiences of seafarers who keep our global economy afloat; now is a crucial time to examine how we live with the sea. This ambitious book brings together an interdisciplinary and international cohort of contributors from within and beyond academia. It offers a range and diversity of insights unlike previous collections. An ‘oceanic turn’ is taking place, with a burgeoning of academic work that takes seriously the place of seas and oceans in understanding socio-cultural and political life, past and present. Yet, there is a significant gap concerning the ways in which we engage with seas and oceans, with a will to enliven action and evoke change. This book explores these challenges, offering insights from spatial planning, architectural design, geography, educational studies, anthropology and cultural studies. An examination through these lenses can help us to better understand human relationships with the seas and oceans, and promote an ethic of care for the future.
