In 1997, Charlie Lewis is the kind of boy you don't remember in the school photograph. His exams have not gone well. At home he is looking after his father, when surely it should be the other way round, and if he thinks about the future at all, it is with a kind of dread. Then Fran Fisher bursts into his life and despite himself, Charlie begins to hope. But if Charlie wants to be with Fran, he must take on a challenge that could lose him the respect of his friends and require him to become a different person.

Manches im Leben strahlt so hell, dass es erst aus der Entfernung wirklich gesehen werden kann. Die erste große Liebe ist so eine Sache, die immer noch leuchtet, auch wenn sie längst verglüht ist. Und jeder ist der Hauptdarsteller seiner ersten Liebesgeschichte. Auch Charlie Lewis. Nichts an ihm ist ansonsten besonders. Er sieht ok aus, seine Noten sind so mittel, selbst die Scheidung seiner Eltern ist nur normal unglücklich. Dann begegnet er Fran Fisher, und seine Welt steht Kopf.

I am not a lawyer; I am survivor of a divorce that to a great extent was resolved amicably because my lawyer/partner and I adhered to the principles and rules I put forth in this book.

1950s Staffordshire. Within the clay tanks at the pottery company Shentall's, a body has been found. Amid cries of industrial espionage and sabotage of this leader of the pottery industry, there is a case of bitter murder to solve for Inspector Hedley Nicholson. Kelly's mystery won the CWA Gold Dagger Award in 1961 for its impeccable sense of place and detail, and for the emotional weight of its central crime. The novel is part of a shift from the cosiness of crime novels before to mysteries characterised by their psychological interest and affecting realism. An influential classic.

I am not a lawyer; I am survivor of a divorce that, to a great extent, was resolved amicably because my lawyer/partner and I adhered to the principles and rules I put forth in this book. I derived the principles and rules from my experience, conversations with my lawyer/partner, observing several friends as they meandered and muddled through their divorce proceedings, and written cases that were similar to mine, all of which I found to be instructive - some of which I found to be bizarre as well.

Few of us know how to navigate the territory of traumatic loss successfully. Sweet Sorrow shows how we can respond and grow stronger from loss and suffering.

Like most of us, Mark Wakely had always put death in the too-hard basket. Around death he was painfully awkward, strangely self-conscious: death-shy. He was curiously distanced from his own parents' deaths. Thirty years later, he went on a journey to confront one of the most intensely personal yet universal experiences: our own mortality. With Mark as our guide, we are introduced to morticians and embalmers, rabbis and doctors, coffin makers and gravediggers.

With wit and sentiment, Tanya Eby shares recipes designed to appeal to certain moods. Sometimes you want to feel energized, sometimes you want something that soothes your spirit, sometimes you just want to eat a ton of casserole because eating feels good.
