When Shannon Moroney married Jason Staples in October 2005, she had no idea that her happy life as a newlywed was about to come crashing down around her. One month after her wedding, a police officer arrived at her hotel door while she was out of town with the news that her husband had been arrested & charged with the brutal sexual assault & kidnapping of two women, taking them to the house he shared with Shannon to commit the acts of violence. In the aftermath of the crimes, Shannon dealt with a heavy burden of grief, the stress & publicity of a major criminal investigation, & the painful stigma of guilt by association
- all the while attempting to understand what had made Jason commit such violence. In this intimate & gripping journey into the human heart, Shannon reveals the far-reaching impact of Jason's crimes & the agonizing choices faced by the loved ones of offenders. She also tells the powerful story of how she made the amazing transition from being a member of the 'trauma club' to completely rebuilding her life. This is an impassioned, harrowing & ultimately hopeful story of one woman's pursuit of justice, forgiveness & healing.

In the late summer of 1913 the aristocratic young poet Cecil Valance comes to stay at ' Two Acres', the home of his close Cambridge friend George Sawle. The weekend will be one of excitements & confusions for all the Sawles, but it is on George's sixteen-year-old sister Daphne that it will have the most lasting impact, when Cecil writes her a poem which will become a touchstone for a generation, an evocation of an England about to change for ever. Linking the Sawle & Valance families irrevocably, the shared intimacies of this weekend become legendary events in a larger story, told & interpreted in different ways over the coming century, & subjected to the scrutiny of critics & biographers with their own agendas & anxieties. In a sequence of widely separated episodes we follow the two families through startling changes in fortune & circumstance. At the centre of this often richly comic history of sexual mores & literary reputation runs the story of Daphne, from innocent girlhood to wary old age. Around her Hollinghurst draws an absorbing picture of an England constantly in flux. ...

Product Description

If your idea of a ‘strange’ aircraft is the pre-war DH Dragon Rapide, a bloated Boeing Super Guppy or a BA Airbus with an ‘ethnic’ tail design, then think again.

What about Horatio Phillips’ Multiplane with its 200 separate wings? Or the Hughes H-4 Hercules, the plane with the longest wingspan ever, which was made entirely from plywood? & who could forget the Caspian Sea Monster – a ten-engine, 550, 000kg giant designed to fly at 500kph at a mindboggling altitude of just 4m?

Exploring the strangest aircraft ever conceived, Keith Ray reveals the madness of many a designer & marketing guru in this highly entertaining homage to some of the aviation world’s more bizarre aircraft.
