Life, Love and The Archers by Wendy Cope Pdf

Wendy Cope has long been one of the nation's best-loved poets, with her sharp eye for human foibles and wry sense of humour. For the first time, Life, Love and the Archers brings together the best of her prose - recollections, reviews and essays from the light-hearted to the serious, taken from a lifetime of published and unpublished work, and all with Cope's lightness of touch. Here readers can meet the Enid-Blyton-obsessed schoolgirl, the ambivalent daughter, the amused teacher, the sensitive journalist, the cynical romantic and the sardonic television critic, as well as touching on books and writers who have informed a lifetime of reading and writing. Wendy Cope is a master of the one-liner as well as the couplet, the telling review as well as the sonnet, and Life, Love and the Archers gives us a wonderfully entertaining and unforgettable portrait of one of England's favourite writers.

The Archers, like life, is made of moments: marriages and births, loves and losses, triumphs and disasters.

The Archer's Thread by Noel Zamot Pdf

Simon Lyons can see seconds into the future. The condition is useful at work: quiet negotiations with the worst people in the world. His employers think he's quite valuable. They tolerate his abrasive personality, the result of an ability to produce everyone and everything. Simon tries hard to hide the truth from everyone: the condition is driving him insane. In desperation he runs away to Boston, the last place he remembers as home. He spends his days drinking to excess, brutalizing street punks, and failing to kill himself. That’s when he meets a young mathematics professor with an unexpected gift: around Doctor Kelly Austin, the chaos of a thousand possibilities dies away, leaving behind clarity, presence, and peace. Rediscovering this sense of normalcy is intoxicating, and rekindles his hope for cure. Simon uses all of his skill to enter's Kelly’s life, find the secret, and leave. That’s when someone from his past returns, stopping at nothing to bury his identity, the truth about his accident, and the extent of his “skill.” When shadowy figures discover that Kelly Austin may be the key to controlling the most dangerous person on earth, Simon must choose: return to a short and brutal life of violence, or risk everything for the terror of redemption. Even if you can see the future, you can never escape your past. Readers who imagine how VE Schwab would’ve written a Jack Reacher novel will devour this genre-bending thriller about sacrifice, secrets, and redemption.

Its 1943 and the war continues on in Ambridge. But the minds of the villagers are focused a little closer to home… For many centuries, a local tradition has told of a mystic living in a hermit’s cave just outside the village.
