The world known as the ` Dark Ages`, often seen as a time of barbarism, was in fact the crucible in which modern Europe would be created. Chris Wickham`s acclaimed history shows how this period, encompassing people such as Goths, Franks, Vandals, Byzantines, Arabs, Anglo-Saxons & Vikings, was central to the development of our history & culture. From the collapse of the Roman Empire to the establishment of new European states, & from Ireland to Constantinople, the Baltic to the Mediterranean, this landmark work makes sense of a time of invasion & turbulence, but also of continuity, creativity & achievement. ...

The delightful tale of a young couple who in the late 1970s, on impulse, became the new landlords of the most remote, bleak & lonely pub
- The Tan Hill Inn
- located in the bleak landscape of the Yorkshire Dales. Having seen an article in the newspaper about the pub`s search for a new manager, they arrived just three weeks later as the new landlords of the The Tan Hill Inn. It is a wild, wind-swept place, set alone in a sea of peat bog & heather moorland that stretches unbroken as far as the eye can see. With only sheep & grouse for company, their closest neighbour was four miles away & the nearest town twelve. They had no experience of licensed trade or running a pub, no knowledge of farming & a complete inability to understand the dialect of the sheep farmers who were their local customers. Eager, well-meaning, but in over their heads, our two heroes embarked on a disaster-strewn career that somehow also turned into a lifelong love affair with the Dales. The Inn at the Top is an entertaining ramble around the Inn, the breath-taking Dales countryside & a remarkable array of local characters, giving an insight into life in a very different time & place.

This is the first volume of Chesterton`s brilliant, ingenious Father Brown stories. Ahead of a new series of the popular BBC adaptation starring Mark Williams, all five of the original Father Brown books have been republished with charming & collectible Penguin covers. With his round face, pipe & umbrella, the shambling, bespectacled priest Father Brown is an unlikely detective
- yet his innocent air hides a razor-sharp understanding of the criminal mind. As this first volume of his adventures shows, the wise, worldly clerical sleuth has an uncanny ability to bring even the most elusive wrongdoer to justice. G. K. Chesterton was born in 1874. He attended the Slade School of Art, where he appears to have suffered a nervous breakdown, before turning his hand to journalism. A prolific writer throughout his life, his best- known books include The Napoleon of Notting Hill (1904), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1922), The Man Who Was Thursday (1908) & the Father Brown stories. Chesterton converted to Roman Catholicism in 1922 & died in 1938.

Orhan Pamuk`s Museum of Innocence in Istanbul is the culmination of decades of omnivorous collecting that seeks to capture the city of Pamuk`s youth through everyday objects: The ephemera, bric-a-brac, & clutter that adheres to every life. These particular objects are intimately tied to The Museum of Innocence, Pamuk`s novel of lost love, which lends its narrative structure to their arrangement in the museum. Eighty beautifully designed vitrines, or boxes, carry the visitor along the arc of the story, on a journey through time & space as well as into the mind of the collector himself, ambiguously identified with both Pamuk & his novel`s lovelorn narrator. The Innocence of Objects, Pamuk`s catalogue of his museum, explores the many meanings of this remarkable project. While it offers a rich visual guide to the exhibitions, it also allows Pamuk to write about things that matter deeply to him, including the psychology of the collector, the proper role of the museum, the uses of photography in modernising societies (illustrated with Pamuk`s superb collection of haunting photographs & movie stills of old Istanbul) & of course the customs & traditions of his beloved Istanbul. The book`s imagery is equally evocative, ranging from the pop ephemera that has become ”collectible” throughout the chronically nostalgic developed world to the superb photographs of Turkish photographer Ara Guler. Combining compelling art & writing, The Innocence of Objects is an original work that will appeal to readers with a wide range of interests. ...
