Sinopsis

Vanished Scrolls explores the profound impact of lost texts on our understanding of history and religion. It delves into manuscripts, religious texts, and mystical writings erased from public view, examining how their disappearance has shaped our perception of the past. The book highlights the fragility of cultural heritage and the power of information, questioning conventional narratives by piecing together fragments of lost knowledge. For example, the destruction of the Library of Alexandria resulted in the irretrievable loss of philosophical and scientific knowledge.

 
The book progresses through three sections, beginning with methods for textual recovery, including digital restoration, then presenting case studies of lost texts like the Gnostic Gospels and Indigenous texts of the Americas, and concluding with the ethical implications of textual loss.

 
By focusing on the absence of information, Vanished Scrolls offers a unique perspective, challenging readers to consider what has been deliberately or accidentally omitted. Understanding why these texts vanished is as crucial as understanding their content, revealing biases that influence our interpretation of history and religious thought.

MATCHED: A Memoir

Denise Massar

When their adoption attorney told Denise and her husband that they would be responsible for finding a woman willing to give them her baby, Denise was horrified. But horrified quickly turned into obsessed. She advertised across the country, fielding and vetting potential birth moms by phone. The first to contact Denise had been raped, twice. Ashamed and depressed, she spent her pregnancy doing coke and drinking vodka to knock herself out. "Do you want to adopt my baby?" she asked. The director of a women's shelter housing victims of human trafficking asked Denise, "Would you have a problem adopting a baby born of prostitution?" Denise knew she wouldn't, but what would her husband say? The eight birth moms Denise met during her search – one an unhoused twenty-year-old, another an MBA-holding executive – changed her life forever, leading her not only to her child, but, in a twist of fate, to the one woman Denise thought she'd never meet: Her own birth mom.  
  
Matched is first and foremost a book for memoir lovers. It's also a love letter to anyone touched by adoption. Whatever your place in the triad: adoptee, birth parent, or adoptive parent, your story is within these pages. Adoption is beautiful. It's also problematic. Massar invites you to ride shotgun on her un-instagrammable journey. Because real is so much better than perfect.

The Murder Game

John Curran

From The Murder of Roger Ackroyd to Magpie Murders, and related diversions including cryptic crosswords and Cain’s Jawbone, The Murder Game examines the games authors played with their readers and the importance of puzzles in Golden Age whodunits.
With books flourishing in the 1920s and ’30s like never before, no genre was more innovative or popular than detective fiction. It was an era that saw the emergence of Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers, John Dickson Carr, Ellery Queen and dozens of other authors who became household names for a generation of readers.
The Golden Age of Detection has enjoyed a great resurgence of interest in recent years, with publishers mining back catalogues to bring the best of yesteryear to very receptive new audiences. What is it about a literary movement that took off in the 1920s that still appeals to book lovers in the 2020s?
In this authoritative new study, John Curran reveals that it is the ludic qualities of classic crime fiction that continue to intrigue. At its heart is the ‘whodunit’ game between writer and reader, but there is also the game between detective and murderer, between publisher and book-buyer, even between the writers themselves.
Coinciding with an increase in leisure time and literacy, the Golden Age also saw the development of the crossword, the growth of bridge and Mahjong, the enduring popularity of jigsaws and the emergence of Cluedo – all activities requiring the ‘little grey cells’. The Murder Game considers all of these, and many other sporting and competitive recreations, helping to explain the reading public’s ongoing love affair with the Golden Age.
John Curran, in his latest non-fiction, delves into the mystery of the enduring appeal of detective fiction from the 20th century. He explores the games played not just within the stories, but also between the writers, publishers, and readers, making this a must-read for any fan of the genre.
For fans of G. K. Chesterton (Saint Francis of Assisi), Lucy Worsley (Jane Austen at Home), and Carla Valentine (Murder Isn't Easy).
