He went to war to forget her. He returned with a title... and an order to marry. When Fitzwilliam Darcy disappeared from society after Lydia Bennet’s scandalous elopement, the ton offered many explanations—none of them close to the truth. For nearly two years, Darcy served the Crown in secret during the war against Napoleon—his wit and will tested in shadowed courts and enemy strongholds. Now returned to England, he carries more than secrets: he bears a new title—Earl of Pemberley—bestowed by the Prince Regent himself. But elevation comes at a cost. With rank comes duty. And the ...

He stole me from the altar. But I was never the one being played. Adrian Kosarev is Bratva royalty—deadly, obsessive, and cold as the blade he keeps at his side. He ripped me from my wedding and shattered the alliance meant to lock his family out of Miami. I was supposed to be leverage. A message soaked in blood. But I’m not the pawn he thinks I am. And I didn’t just let him take me—I wanted him to. Because I’ve been planning this move for years. Every look I give him is calculated. Every touch? A weapon. He thinks he’s in control… But he walked straight into my trap. Now the ...

Do Jane Austen novels truly celebrate—or undermine—romance and happy endings? How did Jane Austen become a cultural icon for fairy-tale endings when her own books end in ways that are rushed, ironic, and reluctant to satisfy readers' thirst for romance? In Jane Austen and the Price of Happiness, Austen scholar Inger Sigrun Bredkjær Brodey journeys through the iconic novelist's books in the first full-length study of Austen's endings.

E se poi è un morto che può spendere, la vuole anche con qualche profonda… come si dice? allegoria, già!, con qualche profonda allegoria d’un grande scultore come me: una bella lapide latina: HIC JACET… chi fu, chi non fu… un bel giardinetto attorno, con l’insalatina e tutto...

Previo al enorme éxito internacional de sus libros, antes de que su nombre apareciera en el horizonte de lo que cierta crítica ahora llama “literatura mundial”, Roberto Bolaño perpetraba pequeños actos de subversión simbólica. Tras presenciar uno de éstos en la feria del libro de París en 2003, donde Bolaño pasaba como anónimo entre varios editores franceses, Oswaldo Zavala — autor de La guerra en las palabras — decidió hacer una exploración de la obra del autor chileno como un gran proyecto literario, donde lo “marginal” se oponía a la producción cultural “hegemónica”.

«Qui giace l'Aretin, poeta Tosco, che d'ognun disse mal, fuorché di Cristo, scusandosi col dir: "Non lo conosco"!»

My poetry is about catching a glimpse of a doorway to another world, there is a sense of a spiritual yearning to know that place and to connect with it. It lies beneath or throughout our world and pulling it into concrete form is not an easy task but it is a gift to me when it happens. It creates something I love. I touch this world in landscape and in nature and sometimes in a particular place like in the Rock of Dunamase. If you have travelled in Ireland, you will know some of these landscapes and their temperaments well.

A book of poetry, largely political, some of it social and all of it observational.
