Grant van Wingerden was raised in rural and remote Western Australia which shaped his early years and his eventual fascination with the polar opposite, city life. Voices Verses Vices collects the poems Grant wrote in exercise books during the eighties and nineties. These poems often channel the voices and perchance the vices of those with whom he had shared a space in boys' and men's hostels, flats, and inner city share houses. Crafted with a fond regard for the conventions of verse combined with an anarchic spirit calling down the Muse, these works invite repeated readings.

Oliver Vice, forty-one, prominent philosopher, scholar, and art collector, is missing and presumed dead, over the side of Queen Mary 2.Troubled by his friend’s possible suicide, the unnamed narrator of Lawrence Douglas’ new novel launches an all-consuming investigation into Vice’s life history. Douglas, moving backward through time, tells a mordantly humorous story of fascination turned obsession, as his narrator peels back the layers of the Vice family’s rich and bizarre history. At the heart of the family are Francizka, Oliver’s handsome, overbearing, vaguely anti-Semitic Hungarian mother, and his fraternal twin brother, Bartholomew, a gigantic and troubled young man with a morbid interest in Europe’s great tyrants. As the narrator finds himself drawn into a battle over the family’s money and art, he comes to sense that someone—or perhaps the entire family—is hiding an unsavory past. Pursuing the truth from New York to London, from Budapest to Portugal, he remains oblivious to the irony of the search: that in his need to understand Vice’s life, he is really grappling with ambivalence about his own.

"Mixed Massages (II)" is the second volume in a collection of short stories, essays and articles about Pattaya, Thailand and expat life. The author Jonathan Finch sets out to depict a Pattaya very different from the one advertised or vilified. His Pattaya is inspirational and sends out messages night and day but those messages are very mixed. Pattaya is alluring and may massage you into a false sense of security but in Pattaya's underbelly are the seeds of bedlam. The fun in Fun City comes at a cost, and fuelled by enormous amounts of drunkenness and desire, the enticing party going on in Thailand's extreme city, the lusts, the ladies, the gays, the cross-dressers, the nightlife and its glittering lures, are sucking away at the revellers, many of whom are unable to make rational choices. Self-awareness, moderation and thought are essential if balance is to be maintained. This second volume of Pattaya voices and vices includes an unlikely philosopher in Pattaya, comic ways of increasing Thai debt in the Isaan, observations on Pattaya's road-accidents, a dad dying of an overdose of Viagra, Einstein correlated with a tube, a discourse on leaving the toilet seat up, and more. Consistently given four and five stars by reviewers, Finch's style has been compared to Dickens', and recently David Wright wrote: "In a hundred years, scholars won't be studying bestselling thrillers to measure the pulse of our generation. But they might be studying Finch." Join in Finch's literary fun and appreciate just how dangerously inspirational his Pattaya can be!

Two consummate storytellers -- one a liberal Catholic priest, the other a conservative Jewish rabbi -- draw on their religious heritages to reveal fresh ways of understanding good and evil behavior. Inspired by scripture and oral tradition, each author presents a story on each of the seven deadly sins, and then offers a story on one of the seven primary virtues. Each vivid story offers profound insight into the ongoing battle of good and evil. Theologian Mary Greeley Durkin has written the compelling introduction and conclusion.

What is the greatest spiritual battle? The greatest battles do not occur in a distant land or even in past times but in the depths of the human soul. It is the battle between virtue and vice, the conflict between aspiring to be a saint or living a mediocre life. The conflict between reaching heaven or forfeiting it. In this spiritual masterpiece, Pope Saint Leo IX, identifies our foes: "The enemies in this battle--the vices and temptations which infect our fallen nature--are invisible and internal." These invisible and internal vices have dragged many souls to hell, and they will not stop until every person has surrendered to their pernicious and vile attacks. Are you saddened and discouraged by such daily assaults? There is hope. In these pages, you will find over twenty-five virtues to help you win the spiritual victory against sin. With God's grace and virtues like humility, detachment, prudent restraint, firm stability, and others, the battle can be won. But keep in mind that spiritual victory does not happen overnight. The battle wages on until your final breath. The question remains: Are you willing to fight? Just as this book is a dialogue between the virtues and vices, so too must we learn to listen to the voice of truth and not the voice of lies. The Lord, the General of our souls, whispers words of encouragement and peace while the devil, the captain of vice and enemy of our souls, tempts us to sin and then accuses us. On our earthly pilgrimage fraught with suffering, sorrow, and trials, let us keep our eyes fixed on our celestial homeland, the eternal city, where there will be perpetual peace. In heaven, Our Lord will welcome His glorious martyrs and courageous soldiers, those who have kept the faith and fought victoriously. There is nothing more important in this life than fortifying the interior castle of the soul with virtue.
