Part personal history, part biography, ” Dotter of Her Father`s Eyes” contrasts two coming-of-age narratives: that of Lucia, the daughter of James Joyce, & that of author Mary Talbot, daughter of the eminent Joycean scholar James S. Atherton. Social expectations & gender politics, thwarted ambitions & personal tragedy are played out against two contrasting historical backgrounds, poignantly evoked by the atmospheric visual storytelling of award winning comic artist & graphic novel pioneer Bryan Talbot. Produced through an intense collaboration seldom seen between writers & artists, ” Dotter of Her Father`s Eyes” is intelligent, funny & sad
- a fine addition to the evolving genre of graphic memoir.

D-Day, 6 June 1944, the turning point of the Second World War, was a victory of arms. But it was also a triumph for a different kind of operation: one of deceit... At the heart of the deception was the ` Double Cross System`, a team of double agents whose bravery, treachery, greed & inspiration succeeded in convincing the Nazis that Calais & Norway, not Normandy, were the targets of the 150, 000-strong Allied invasion force. These were not conventional warriors, but their masterpiece of deceit saved thousands of lives. Their codenames were Bronx, Brutus, Treasure, Tricycle & Garbo. This is their story. ...

Double Take presents thirty-nine uncannily accurate reconstructions of the great images & moments from history – ranging from the earliest known photograph, through the landmark events of the 20th & 21st century, the icons of popular culture & the art world, to the world’s most expensive photograph. These intricately crafted works have been created in miniature by photographers Jojakim Cortis & Adrian Sonderegger. Inspired by the record auction price of $4.3m set by Andreas Gursky’s Rhein II in 2011, they set themselves a challenge: could they use model making & lighting skills to reconstruct the Gursky image in their Zürich studio? The photograph they created from a miniaturized diorama of Rhein II was a success. It worked! This one-off challenge became the starting point for a larger personal project by the duo – a whole series of increasingly elaborate & difficult recreations of photographs of pivotal events throughout history. The whole world, & the surface of the moon, were conjured in their studio. Double Take is not just a technical tour de force – it opens up a wider consideration of image making, of the ‘slideshow’ of famous photographs we each hold in our memory, & of the problem at the heart of the medium: can the photographic image ever be trusted? With a full selection of images showing the making of the reconstructions in the studio, an introduction by Christian Caujolle, a supporting essay by Florian Ebner (of the Pompidou Centre) & an in-depth interview with the photographers, Double Take is the perfect volume for all with a love of photography with a twist & a sense of humour. ...

Douala IGN Map

One of the titles in a series of topographic maps covering much of north-west Africa, produced as part of the IMW* project in 1960’s. Each map covers an area spanning 6° in longitude and 4° in latitude. There is some variation in colouring and the depiction of terrain, but hill-shading, spot heights and contours are used to show the general relief. Additional graphics show features such as dunes, rock outcrops, cliffs, sand areas, escarpments, marshes, seasonal lakes and watercourses, and areas liable to flooding. Bathymetric contours are also included.Communications detail includes roads, major trails and railways, although there is some inconsistency in colouring and the extent of classification, e.g. not all maps distinguish seasonal roads. On most maps intermediate
road distances are indicated on main routes. Symbols show airports, mosques, mines, oil and gas fields, lighthouses, ruins and significant isolated buildings. Administrative boundaries are marked and latitude and longitude lines are drawn at 1° intervals, with further margin ticks at 1’ intervals. The map legend is in French only on some sheets, and in English and French on others.*The International Map of the World was a project conceived in the early 20th century to compile a world map series at 1:1, 000, 000 through the efforts of participating nations. The value of the program has declined since 1970 and the IMW is no longer regarded as an active international series.
