Book Description
Life is simple where Ralph lives, up in the Pennines. It's peaceful. Ordinary. Until one day, when out with the sheep, he finds something strange, too strange to be from Earth. The alien grave holds secrets of the past, but also draws Ralph into the middle of an epic war between two alien races, taking place among the stars above his head. Has he thrown his planet into a battle it can't possibly fight? This war has raged for centuries, but perhaps Ralph could hold the key to ending it once and for all.

Urn Burial (New Directions Pearls)
Author: Thomas Browne
Publisher: New Directions Publishing
ISBN: 0811221547
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
Urn Burial, one of the most influential essays in Western literature, is now available as a New Directions Pearl. Hydriotaphia, or Urn Burial, is one of the pinnacles of Renaissance scholarship and without doubt one of the great essays in English literature. Beginning with observations on the recent discovery of Roman antiquities in the form of burial urns, Browne’s associative mind wanders to elephant graveyards, to pre-Christian cremation ceremonies, and finally to the idea of Christian burial. Browne then explores, with a more melancholic meditation, man’s struggles with mortality and the uncertainty of his fate and fame in the living world. This edition includes a magisterial discourse on Sir Thomas Browne taken from the first chapter of W. G. Sebald’s The Rings of Saturn.
