Rosslyn Chapel Revealed
‘Like Rosslyn itself, this book is rather delicious and I would urge anyone with an interest in the Scottish religious sensibility to read it.’ - Gerard CarruthersRosslyn Chapel Revealed offers the reader an increased understanding and respect for one of Europe’s finest pre-Reformation buildings. Rosslyn Chapel, with its foundations in the world of nature, still points bravely to the heavens. That there is mystery at Rosslyn Chapel, there can be no doubt. But it is not the mystery of the esoteric Gnostic variety, available only to the initiated few. Instead, it is knowledge, accessible to all, of the dynamic intertwining of the created world with the impulse towards self-fulfilment. Rosslyn Chapel Revealed shows that the chapel is first and foremost a Christian building, constructed in the traditions of the pre-Reformation Church for the celebration in word, gesture and music of the Divine Office and of the ultimate sacrifice Jesus Christ suffered on his cross for the salvation of the human race. The stunning beauty of the chapel, its unexpected delicacy and the uninhibited humour of its stone carvings, which have drawn visitors in such avid numbers from all over the world, are a tribute to the honesty and validity of the religious experience to be found within its ancient walls, in a breathtaking setting of valley and river that is older than time. ‘This lovely book is a counter to some of the silliness of recent years … an excellent and comprehensive introduction and a super memoir for anyone who has visited.’ - Maria Western, Inspires

Some Men In London: Queer Life, 1960-1967
The second in a major two-part anthology uncovering the rich reality of life for queer men in London, from the end of the Second World War to decriminalization in 1967
In the 1940s, it was believed that homosexuality had been becoming more widespread in the aftermath of war. A moral panic ensued, centred around London as the place to which gay men gravitated.
Peter Parker's fascinating new compendium explores what it was actually like for queer men in London in this period, whether they were well-known figures such as Francis Bacon, Joe Orton and Kenneth Williams, or living lives of quiet - or occasionally rowdy - anonymity in pubs, clubs, more public places of assignation, or at home. It is rich with letters, diaries, psychological textbooks, novels, films, plays and police records, covering a wide range of viewpoints, from those who deplored homosexuality to those who campaigned for its decriminalization.
This second volume, from 1960 to 1967, shows how key elements in British society gradually changed their views on homosexuality, resulting in the landmark 1967 act by which it was no longer considered a crime if it took place between adults in private. This did not end violence, discrimination and prejudice, but it at least curbed official persecution. Some Men in London is a testament to queer life and its thriving, joyous subculture - a subculture without which the 1960s would have been immeasurably impoverished.

As the host of a successful YouTube channel for stay-at-home-dads, Gracen is known for his handy tips and trademark self-deprecating humor. But off camera, he struggles with the aftereffects of a tragedy that shaped him and everyone else in his hometown of Meander: the death of his eleven-year-old sister, Douggy. When Gracen mentions his sister’s long-ago death for the first time on his channel, he taps a vein of interest he hadn’t known existed. Soon enough, he finds himself discussing a theory he’s kept quiet for years: that Douggy chose to die. And he’s finally figured out why . . . and who is to blame. At first, Gracen is grateful for the jump in views, until his shift in content brings Quinn, Douggy’s childhood best friend, back to Meander looking for answers. And when people start dying around them and detectives start asking questions, Gracen and Quinn find themselves at the center of an investigation that will prove to have consequences deadlier than they ever could’ve imagined.

Simpsonovi: Komiksové safari
Springfieldu hrozí potopa, a zatímco Flanders staví archu, Líza svolá partu k opravě vetché hráze; ale proč dělá Homer přesčasy jako blázen? A proč zakládá pštrosí farmu, když před prací kolem domu obvykle strká hlavu do písku? Ani Bart se, jak známo, na zahradě nepředře, ale jakmile začne dojit kačky z travní sekačky, brzy padne kosa na kámen. Sekáč býval kdysi i děda Simpson, ale dnes by jeho historky umořily vola, natož Homera. Když však Abe najde vděčné posluchače a adoptivní rodinu u Flandersů, má jeho pravý syn moře starostí s tím, jak ho získat zpět. Moře a dávné křivdy a hoře hrají hlavní roli i v napínavé bitvě dvou starých mořských vlků, kteří si to ovšem nerozdají šavlemi, nýbrž vařečkami. Vařit se bude i v řízném příběhu plném hořkosti a nakvašenosti, když Homer vypění poté, co se jeho svět otřese v základech: Duff již nechutná jako dřív! Je jen na Homerovi, aby vyčistil ten Augiášův chlív.
