Sinopsis

Meet Dave. Dave is Prime Minister. Dave really wants to do the right thing. He keeps telling us he wants to do the right thing. Again and again and again. One afternoon he told us four times in half an hour.



Then he went off and did the right thing. Every morning when he wakes up, he reminds himself to remind us that he's doing the right thing.



But what is the right thing? And what is the wrong thing? And is doing the right thing the right thing or the wrong thing to do? Or is doing the wrong thing the right thing to do when doing the right thing might turn out to be the wrong thing, and doing the wrong thing might turn out to be the right thing?


Next to doing the right thing, the most important thing is to let people know you are doing the right thing. JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER


You can always count on Americans to do the right thing – after they've tried everything else WINSTON CHURCHILL


Sometimes it is better to lose and do the right thing than to win and do the wrong thing TONY BLAIR


If I lose the ball, I lose it trying to do the right thing. That's the way it is. FRANK LAMPARD

    People come to the guest house for fresh air and views across the Atlantic. But if they're lucky, they might just leave with the second chance they didn't know they needed... 
     
    Esme has run the guest house for as long as anyone in Ballycove can remember. But in her declining years, her sight is failing, and when she has a fall on the eve of the summer season, she is forced to take a back seat for the first time in her life. 
     
    From her chair in the entry hall, not much passes Esme by. There's Cora, the wife visiting indefinitely... without her husband; Niamh, the city professional with a life-changing decision to make; and Phyllie, the grandmother whose family is slipping away from her. 
     
    Esme's guests provide the colour that helps her keep her grip on the world. All of them have something they want to escape – or to hold on to. But can Esme help them find their way before the summer is over? 
     
    From bestselling Irish writer Faith Hogan comes a new, uplifting story about discovering love, friendship and the healing power of the Irish sea air. It will charm fans of Sheila O'Flanagan, Heidi Swain and Susanne O'Leary.

    The Rhythm of Love - 25 Things...

    Every marriage has its own melody… its own beat… its own rhythm. Marriages go through twists, turns, changes, and turnarounds. We are constantly learning what our rhythm is and will be. As a great DJ reads the mood of a crowd, learning when to play more of this or less of that, so do we manage the composition that is our marriage. It’s like the way a song doesn’t start as the finished product we hear on the radio. It often starts as a phrase or line that the artist finds meaning in, and it is developed through time, effort, trial, and error to become a full expression of the artist’s thoughts and emotions. Even after the song is recorded, the artist may not consider it to be finished. Whenever they perform it, they play it differently because they are different. The song evolves as they do. 
    While our song is not yet finished, we wrote this book to share how it has evolved from the beginning until now. The Rhythm of Love: 25 Things that 25 Years of Marriage Taught Us is a peek into our quarter-century together and a bit of the music we’ve made. In it, we reflect on how we reached this point, the successes and stumbles along the way, and the revisions that remain ongoing. So, if you’re a person who enjoys learning and growing through life’s ups and downs, dive in with us. In these pages, you will find out how we’ve learned, grown, and composed our melody… our beat… our rhythm.

    La femme. Le mari. L'enfant. Le chat. Le petit dejeuner. Le journal. L'auteur. La festival du filme. La critique. L'agent. Le mort. La naissance.
    A novel starring Jean-Luc Godard.
    It's Edinburgh Film Festival 2020 and critic Victor Eaves meets filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard in a novel blending mad vulgarity with slingshot satire. French Toast is a family farce and cinematic adventure starring a giant of the silver screen.
    "This is the story of my encounter with the venerable French-Swiss film director Jean-Luc Godard. In 2020, when he was 90 years old, Godard was invited to Edinburgh to speak at the Film Festival and I was chosen to meet him, as I was the only journalist in the city who both spoke French and had seen any of his films."
    VICTOR EAVES
    "Burnett's latest novel is both a scabrous satire and a rollicking caper, and comes stuffed with big ideas, memorable set pieces, clever in-jokes and caustic asides. Buried within the mayhem lurk shrewd insights into artistic judgment."
    THE HERALD
    "Peter Burnett is not in the business of fuelling hubris. He is concerned with questions about meaning, value and the nature of authenticity."
