  Echoes From the Deep - The...

  On May 1, 1915, the majestic RMS Lusitania departed from New York, bound for Liverpool, navigating through the escalating tensions of a war-torn Europe. Just six days later, the Cunard liner met a tragic fate, sinking into the depths of the Atlantic after being struck by a German torpedo. The catastrophe claimed the lives of over a thousand passengers, sending shockwaves across the world and profoundly influencing the American stance on World War I. 
  At the heart of this investigation lies a provocative thesis: the tragic loss of life on the Lusitania was not merely a consequence of wartime hostilities but was exacerbated by decisions and actions that could have been averted. Through detailed analysis, the book questions the accountability of the captain and crew, challenging readers to reconsider the extent to which their actions — or inactions — contributed to the disaster. 
  But this story is not confined to the ill-fated ship alone. "Echoes From the Deep" also examines the broader ramifications of the Lusitania's sinking on American public opinion. The tragedy stirred a powerful emotional response, turning the tide of sentiment and drawing the United States closer to joining the global conflict.  
  Blending historical rigor with compelling storytelling, "Echoes From the Deep" explores tragedy, responsibility, and the complex interplay between individual actions and larger historical forces. This book is essential for history enthusiasts, maritime scholars, and anyone intrigued by the profound impact of the Lusitania disaster on the American war effort.

  Dialogue with a Somnambulist -...

  Renowned internationally for her lyrically unsettling novels, PEN/Faulkner Award winner Chloe Aridjis now presents her first collection of shorter works, with an introduction by Tom McCarthy 
   
   
   
  Chloe Aridjis's stories and essays are known to transport readers into liminal, often dreamlike, realms. In this collection of works, we meet a woman guided only by a plastic bag drifting through the streets of Berlin who discovers a nonsense-named bar that is home to papier-mâché monsters and one glass-encased somnambulist. Floating through space, cosmonauts are confronted not only with wonder and astonishment, but tedium and solitude. And in Mexico City, stray dogs animate public spaces, "infusing them with a noble life force." In her pen portraits, Aridjis turns her eye to expats and outsiders, including artists and writers such as Leonora Carrington, Mavis Gallant, and Beatrice Hastings. 
   
   
   
  Exploring the complexity of exile and urban alienation, Dialogue with a Somnambulist showcases "the rare writer who reinvents herself in each book" (Garth Greenwell) and who is as imaginatively at home in the short form as in her longer fiction.

  Parcels in the Post - Growing Up...

  Welcome to the house of fun.
  It's the early 1980s and Fiona Neary and her family have recently moved back from England to the family farm. Fiona's huge-hearted mum decides to take in foster children – a decision that will change all their lives.
   Over the next decade, a procession of faces passes through the house. Every child has their own story, and each story claims a little piece of Fiona's heart. Some stay a few weeks; some months, and then years. All these children, as well as Fiona and her family, must pass through a chaotic system: where a judge's decision can alter a child's life, for better or worse; where emergency placements can break up siblings; where the foster family are often left in the dark and with little back-up.
  Filled with pathos and humour, Parcels in the Post is both a memoir of a loving household and snapshot of the fostering system in Ireland, from someone at the very heart of it all.
