Set in 1973 Greece during the military dictatorship there, the novel follows thirty-year-old American Jonas Korda as he stumbles blindly into the islands of the Aegean. Attempting to physically escape from a life—a disillusioned engagement with 1960s politics and an ill-fated sort-of-marriage—that he has long since emotionally fled, Jonas is instead faced with the question of his capacity for true human connections. Unwittingly he becomes involved with two expatriate Greeks who had self-exiled from their homeland six years before, when the military junta took power, but who are now returning to create oppositional energy through the form, as musicians, they know best: traditional Greek poetry set to the music of a composer who’s been banned by the brutal and surreal junta. Through the force of their commitment and sacrifice, Jonas is reacquainted with the relation between the heart and the larger world. Jonas is also confronted, sequentially, by two women who in very different ways bring his emotional struggles into focus. One—a Greek-Canadian searching for her father lost somewhere to the depredations of the dictatorship—who seeks to draw him in. The other—an alienated Belgian painter turning her back on a life of artistic and gender frustrations—who holds him away. The novel’s lyrically evoked Greek islands are counterpoint to political terror captured with both shuddering intensity and mordant black humor. Shades of Resistance is that rare work of fiction that explores the relationship between the personal and the political, the heightened responses of a man trapped in a moment of history.

Sarah Hewett, a young girl, grows up under very strange circumstances. These circumstances are never questioned because as a child she considers this to be the normal way of life. Later in life, as a young adult, Sarah begins to question many aspects of her life. She discovers bizarre facts about her parents and her ancestry. The male members of the Hewett family had been the leaders in a small town in Georgia for centuries past. This new found information leads her on a journey across the country. Sarah traces her history to the far away origination of her ancestral past. The horror of her findings leads her to the Deep South, and to a place that has remained undiscovered and untouched for hundreds of years. The shocking findings leave Sarah teetering on the verge of insanity. What she finds is both terrifying, and dangerous. An accidental occurrence leads Sarah to stumble upon the horrendous and repulsive facts and obsessive actions of her ancestors. The small town is fearful of the Hewett name even to this day and the Hewett properties are thought to be haunted. She finds herself lost and trapped in a place where no one has any idea where she is. Her findings will forever be remembered and documented as the most horrendous aspects of the Hewett reign of terror on a small southern community. This reign of terror and control can be dated back for hundreds and hundreds of years. Sarah is one of the last surviving Hewetts, a name that represents terror, great fear, dominating control and greed to a small Georgia community.

The Printing Ink Manual was first published in 1961 under the auspices of the Society of British Printing Ink Manufacturers with the object of providing an authoritative work on printing ink technology. This, the fourth edition, continues that purpose and presents a comprehensive study of the current 'state of the art' in the ink industry. For those starting in the printing ink industry it is a textbook dealing with all aspects of the formulation and manufacture of printing ink. For the ink technician it is a practical manual and useful source of reference. For printers and users of printed material the manual supplies helpful information on the nature and behaviour of ink both on the printing press and as the finished print. Readers with a little scientific knowledge will have no difficulty in using the manual, but as in previous editions, sufficient chemistry and physics have been introduced to assist the advanced technician and research scientist.

Crammed with fascinating facts, expert advice, and a wealth of essential information, Shades of Grey will guide you through the minefield that is choosing exactly the right shade of gray paint. “Grey is the cooler, chicer cousin of white that we can't help lusting after” Elle Decor There's no doubt about it, gray is the shade of the moment. On-trend restaurants, shops and homes are covered in it. There's not a home improvement TV show that doesn't feature it. However, despite its popularity, it’s not quite as simple as buying a can of gray paint and slapping it on the wall. Make the wrong choice, and a gray room can be be cold and dark, even energy-sapping. Get it right, however, and your home will look inviting, sophisticated, and modern. So how to find the perfect hue? In Shades of Grey, Kate Watson-Smyth explores the current popularity of the shade and consults experts—scientists, paint brands, interior decorators—who reveal their favourite grays (as well as other tricks of the trade). She looks at the huge range of grays on offer and, via a simple process of elimination, will help you track down the shade that works perfectly for you.
