Barryjong Primary School is a joke. The teachers have lost their will to teach, the buildings are old and tired with not even a whiff of airconditioning in any classroom, and prefects are the stuff of legends from when the school used to be cool. Raymond Bulanghagui is resigned to it all after nearly six years at Barryjong and has become good at fading into the background, a natural born follower, happy to play soccer (badly) in the shadow of his best mate and hotshot player, Zain. Then a new principal arrives to shake things up. When he invites anyone in Year Six to 'audition' to be prefects, Zain practically kicks down his door, itching to be school captain. Raymond gets dragged along and somehow ends up in the principals' final choice of prefects, alongside Zain and two other nobodies. Does Raymond have it in him to be a leader? Will he and the other prefects actually survive their first week on the beat at Barryjong? And when Zain makes a crazy promise to get air con for the classrooms, will they ever be able to save themsleves and the school by finding the money to do it?

"With an insider's knowledge viewed from an outsider's perspective, Tim Rice's Broke in a Tangle skillfully narrates many of the great moments in horse racing complete with the triumph and tragedy met by the characters that accompany them. If you ever wondered what motivates humans to race horses, these stories will unravel that mystery in a most entertaining fashion. Through nearly a half century of trying to solve the riddle of Kentucky Derby winners, Rice's recounting of those highs and lows leaves no doubt of his affection for the sport and its most noteworthy participants. Weaving the racing stories into the cultural and political settings of the times - an historical horse racing tour from the Andrew Jackson era to the present - gives the reader a story line rare in racing journalism. Champion horses, Hall of Fame trainers, legendary riders, as well as a wide assortment of rogues - they are all here. Broke in a Tangle brings them all to life in a way that will appeal to professional horsemen, dedicated fans, and the curious lay person as well. For the reader seeking great stories with the noble thoroughbred as the central character, Broke in a Tangle wins going away."--from Amazon.

'We're all losers in life in some way, ' Aubrey Malone contends in this memoir, 'but that's what makes us interesting.' It documents his college years in Ballina, County Mayo, where he suffered under an oppressive regime and eventually found closure on it. The book also features a court action taken by his father after he retired from being a solicitor and his own life as a teacher and subsequently a writer. As a background to these themes, his life-long flirtation with snooker is chronicled, both at league level where he played on the 'chicken and chips' circuit and in the top flight where he became 'a fan with a typewriter, ' chronicling the careers of legends like Jimmy White and Ronnie O'Sullivan. Another sub-theme is Gaelic football, the Mayo team mirroring his own one in Muredach's College. Success proved to be equally elusive here, the Nearly Men of Mayo failing to capture the holy grail of an All-Ireland for seventy years despite giving their all. 'I coulda been a contender, ' Marlon Brando said famously in On the Waterfront. Paul Newman could have been one too in The Hustler. In sport as in life the three cherries of success seem to constantly run away from those who crave them most. As a result they become beautiful...lose

What makes somebody a Loser, a person doomed to unfulfilled dreams and humiliation? Nobody is born to lose, and yet failure embodies our worst fears. The Loser is our national bogeyman, and his history over the past two hundred years reveals the dark side of success, how economic striving reshaped the self and soul of America. From colonial days to the Columbine tragedy, Scott Sandage explores how failure evolved from a business loss into a personality deficit, from a career setback to a gauge of our self-worth. From hundreds of private diaries, family letters, business records, and even early credit reports, Sandage reconstructs the dramas of real-life Willy Lomans. He unearths their confessions and denials, foolish hopes and lost faith, sticking places and changing times. Dreamers, suckers, and nobodies come to life in the major scenes of American history, like the Civil War and the approach of big business, showing how the national quest for success remade the individual ordeal of failure. Born Losers is a pioneering work of American cultural history, which connects everyday attitudes and anxieties about failure to lofty ideals of individualism and salesmanship of self. Sandage's storytelling will resonate with all of us as it brings to life forgotten men and women who wrestled with The Loser--the label and the experience--in the days when American capitalism was building a nation of winners.
