  By the Ionian Sea: Notes of a Ramble in Southern Italy by George Gissing is a vivid travelogue that captures the author’s journey through the picturesque and historically rich regions of southern Italy. Gissing immerses himself in the landscapes, culture, and history of the Ionian coast, blending keen observations with reflections on art, antiquity, and rural life. His prose reveals a deep appreciation for the beauty of the Mediterranean, from its sun-drenched shores to its ancient ruins, while also addressing the hardships faced by local communities. Gissing’s intellectual curiosity shines as he explores the interplay between past and present, celebrating the enduring legacy of classical civilizations while lamenting their decline. Written with elegance and introspection, By the Ionian Sea is both a tribute to Italy’s timeless allure and a meditation on the transient nature of human achievement. It invites readers to share in Gissing’s wanderlust and his profound connection to the region’s history and charm.

  Community Cat Chronicles 2 The:...

  Theodora Tuxedo wasn't the only feline to arrive and stay with Eugene's family at Block 223. Firstborn, a son Satu (also a tuxedo but in white mess dress), would plop out with a mewl into Stepdad's pyjama pants one early Sunday morning, with tortoiseshell Dua and calico Tiga to follow.
  
  There's a lot to learn if you're a kitten: how to use your whiskers, how to know when a rat is a rat (and when it isn't) and how to accept the tail you've been born with. Loving her life now as an indoor cat, shunning her past life as a stray, Theodora can't understand the kittens' eagerness to venture back "outdoors" into the community.
  
  Along with Theodora's (and Zigzag's) unexpected offspring, The Community Cat Chronicles 2 – New Kittens on the Block delightfully shares imagined stories of real residents, both two legged and four, around the housing estates of Avenue 1.

  Where Beau the Beach Bunny Burrows is a story of longing, listening, and helping others. A bunny’s journey of learning that he is enough, just the way he is. It’s for every child who watches the world and wonders where they fit in, and for grown-ups, like me, who may remember that feeling. Let me tell you a secret- 
  “You are enough, ten times more than you know!”

  A Quiet Evening - The Travels of...

  Collected here, from a period of nearly five decades, are thirty-six of Norman Lewis's best articles. In each, his writing crackles with poker-faced wit and stylistic brilliance. As a witness to his times – the good, the bad and the absurd – he was unmatched, and his instinct for important events, and moments, was infallible. His range here includes Ibizan fishermen, an interview with Castro's executioner, the genocide of the South American indigenous tribes, a paean to Seville and his meeting with a tragic Ernest Hemingway. Lewis told Ian Fleming, who had commissioned him, that the meeting was 'a shattering experience of the kind likely to sabotage ambition'. Fortunately it didn't, and the articles assembled between these covers are compulsive, hilarious, tender and beautifully written, at times deeply upsetting and always unforgettable.
