    No One to Meet - Imitation and...

    The literary establishment tends to regard Bob Dylan as an intriguing, if baffling, outsider. That changed overnight when Dylan was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature, challenging us to think of him as an integral part of our national and international literary heritage. No One to Meet places Dylan the artist within a long tradition of literary production and offers an innovative way of understanding his unique, and often controversial, methods of composition. 
     
     
     
    In lucid prose, Raphael Falco demonstrates the similarity between what Renaissance writers called imitatio and the way Dylan borrows, digests, and transforms traditional songs. Although Dylan's lyrical postures might suggest a post-Romantic, "avant-garde" consciousness, No One to Meet shows that Dylan's creative process borrows from and expands the methods used by classical and Renaissance authors. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on numerous examples, including Dylan's previously unseen manuscript excerpts and archival materials, Falco illuminates how the ancient process of poetic imitation, handed down from Greco-Roman antiquity, allows us to make sense of Dylan's musical and lyrical technique. By placing Dylan firmly in the context of an age-old poetic practice, No One to Meet deepens our appreciation of Dylan's songs and allows us to celebrate him as what he truly is: a great writer.

    The Gwent Levels line the north shore of the Severn Estuary in South Wales: Chepstow at their head; their more famous cousin, the Somerset Levels, across the water; the Welsh capital, Cardiff at their feet. You could waste an hour crossing the Levels by motorway. Or brush aside the journey by train. But writer Marsha O'Mahony has chosen the slow route of foreshore, footpath, and country lane. Over the course of two years, she meandered from village to village collecting conversations and anecdotes as she went. The result is a remarkable oral and social history of this unique landscape and the people who live there.

    A blistering account of fame, class and the cost of reinvention, as John Healy confronts what happens after survival − and the invisible cage success can build
    Nearly four decades after his acclaimed memoir The Grass Arena, John Healy delivers the long-awaited second volume of his extraordinary life.
    The Glass Cage begins in the wake of sudden literary success and fragile sobriety, as Healy attempts to inhabit a world far removed from the prisons, streets and wino jungle that shaped him. Thrust into publishing, publicity and middle-class expectation, he finds himself disoriented by power, privilege and the subtle humiliations of class.
    Written with fierce candour and dark, unsparing wit, this is a memoir not of escape, but of exposure − and of the cost of crossing worlds.

    Not Now, Dear… is a sharp, curious and quietly cheeky exploration of how men and women are navigating a world that seems to be changing faster than anyone agreed to.
    
    Written over three decades, by a real human, with a pen, opinions and skin in the game, this book blends observation, humour, scientific logic and human contradiction into something genuinely original. Part social commentary, a dash of philosophical sails with a collection of hard-won insights, it asks uncomfortable questions without shouting answers.
    
    Thought-provoking and playful, Not Now, Dear… is for readers who enjoy thinking, laughing, and occasionally saying, "Well… that's uncomfortably true."
