Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ... ANNUS MIRABILIS: THE YEAR OF WONDERS, 1666. In thriving arts long time had Holland grown, Crouching at home and cruel when abroad; Scarce leaving us the means to claim our own, Our King they courted and our merchants awed. 2 Trade, which like blood should circularly flow, Stopped in their channels, found its freedom lost: Thither the wealth of all the world did go, And seemed but shipwracked on so base a coast. 3 For them alone the heavens had kindly heat, In eastern quarries* ripening precious dew; For them the Idumsean balm did sweat And in hot Ceylon spicy forests grew. 4 The sun but seemed the labourer of their year; Each wexing moonb supplied her watery store To swell those tides which from the Line did bear Their brim-full vessels to the Belgian shore. 5 Thus mighty in her ships stood Carthage long And swept the riches of the world from far, Yet stooped to Rome, less wealthy but more strong; And this may prove our second Punic war. * In eastern quarries. Precious stones at first are dew condensed, and hardened by the warmth of the sun or subterranean fires. b Each wexing moon. According to their opinions who think that great heap of the waters under the Line is depressed into tides by the moon toward the poles. 13 6 What peace can be, where both to one pretend, But they more diligent and we more strong? Or if a peace, it soon must have an end, For they would grow too powerful, were it long. 7 Behold two nations then engaged so far That each seven years the fit must shake each land; Where France will side to weaken us by war Who only can his vast designs withstand. 8 See how he feeds the Iberian0 with delays To render us his timely friendship vain; And while his secret soul on Flanders preys, He rocks the cradle of the babe of...

È una mattina del 1666 a Eyam, un piccolo e isolato villaggio di montagna del Derbyshire, in Inghilterra, e nel grazioso cottage in cui vive, Anna Frith, vedova a diciotto anni con due bambini, dopo aver riempito una brocca d’acqua fresca, raggiunge la stanza di George Viccars, un sarto girovago venuto qualche tempo fa a bussare alla sua porta in cerca d’un alloggio. Anna entra nella stanzetta dal soffitto basso e per poco la brocca d’acqua non le cade di mano. Il volto giovane e bello della sera precedente è scomparso. Gorge Viccars giace con la testa spinta di lato da un bubbone grande quanto un maialino appena nato, un rigonfiamento di carne lucida e pulsante. Così, nelle pagine di questo romanzo, la peste giunge a Eyam, in una mattina del 1666. Inaspettata e innocente eroina, Anna deve affrontare la morte nella sua famiglia, la disintegrazione della sua comunità e il pericolo di un amore illecito. L’Annus Horribilis della peste, però, è destinato a trasformarsi in un Annus Mirabilis, un anno di meraviglie... Romanzo indimenticabile che svela «la meraviglia del coraggio umano» (Library Journal), Annus Mirabilis è un’avvincente storia d’amore in cui dolore e gioia, perdita e resurrezione si alternano mirabilmente.

Poetry. Sally Ball's first collection of poems is something of conversations and relationships-the connections and differences between personal life and the natural world, the Zen-like attention to suffering and knowledge. This is a work of intellectual and artistic inquiry, peeling away the delusion that something can explain our mortality and our existence. A work of scientific theory and probing questions that leave us with only one real explanation: luck.
