Beschreibung

A young clerk’s desperate act of forgery to save the woman he loves leads to a crushing encounter with the indifferent machinery of the British legal system. This powerful drama exposes the devastating impact of solitary confinement and the inherent inequalities of the law. Galsworthy’s unflinching portrayal of the penal system sparked genuine social reform upon its release. It remains a searing indictment of a society that prioritizes punishment over rehabilitation and justice.

    The captain of the Titanic went down with his ship on 15 April, 1912. But thoughts have power, and those who endure in the stories of the living are said to continue to roam the world after their deaths. And so the captain wanders in search of the things he tried to find in life, and discovers his destiny intimately entwined with a painter who shares the same fate, not knowing that their paths had crossed a long time ago. 
     
    The Impermanence of Lilies is a melancholic tribute to the nature of life and a yearning for love, in a story that reaches across lifetimes, borders, and the space between two hearts. 
     
     
    "A poetic, poignant love letter to life. Daniel Yeo has important things to tell us about the painful beauty of impermanence, and he tells them with a tender lyricism." 
    -Melissa de Villiers, author of The Chameleon House 
     
    “A wistful travel narrative by the RMS Titanic Captain that dives into preternatural waters, flowing into surprising and surrealist tributaries of reflections on death, memory, identity, friendship, and unwaveringly, love.” 
    -Cyril Wong, poet and fictionist

    The title, An Essay on Criticism hardly indicates all that is included in the poem. It would have been impossible to give a full and exact idea of the art of poetical criticism without entering into the consideration of the art of poetry. Accordingly Pope has interwoven the precepts of both throughout the poem which might more properly have been styled an essay on the Art of Criticism and of Poetry. - Summary from the Gutenberg text

    From the author of Peter Pan: 
     
    Lord Loam, a British peer, considers class divisions to be artificial. He promotes his views during tea-parties where servants mingle with his aristocratic guests, to the embarrassment of all. Crichton, his butler, particularly disapproves of this. 
     
    Loam, his family, a maid, and Crichton are shipwrecked on a deserted tropical island. The resourceful Crichton is the only one of the party with any practical knowledge. Eventually, social roles are reversed, and Crichton becomes the governor. (Intro from Wikipedia & TriciaG)

    She never thought this one day would change her life so drastically... 
    In the shadows of power, where laws are broken and loyalties are sealed with blood, whispers a desire darker than the night. This book is not for the faint of heart. It is a pact with the underworld, signed in sin and desire.

    She was aware of the clatter of her purse as it slipped from her fingers when he pushed her against the large white pillar. He pushed up her dress, reached between her thighs, and groped for her pussy with his fingers. She let it happen. He apparently didn't care about her at all. He was just looking for a pussy to fuck. She wasn't wet, but he didn't care. He turned her to face the pillar and thrust his cock into her from behind. She groaned, but more from pain, because his cock was quite large. While he fucked her from behind, he murmured something in a language she didn't understand. 
    Not suitable for those under 18 years of age.
