The Trajectory of a Fallen Angel by Shona Moller Pdf
A disturbing, emotively-charged romantic thriller. This debut novel is quintessentially New Zealand; it is set on the sultry West Coast, it references New Zealand artists, and as expected from an artist author, it is an intensely visual read. The Trajectory of a Fallen Angel introduces Emma Blake, a gritty young heroine as she accepts a position at a remote village school on the West Coast of New Zealand. Tairuanui is a village of misfits; a place where everyone, it seems, is living out their Plan B. Struggling to come to terms with her past, Emma attracts the attention of Jono, an enigmatic local Maori with secrets of his own. Initially created as a feminist stance against the cardboard cut-out roles often reserved for women in literature and film, Jono eventually emerges as a fully developed character. Meanwhile, the Group; a church based on Closed Brethren doctrine is operating out of an ancient Pa site in the bush. It sets its sights on Emma and her journey to rescue, and recovery, is a bumpy ride. The Trajectory of a Fallen Angel is for readers who demand a visceral experience; Emma Blake is darkly funny, gutsy, angry. She has a blunt, sometimes abrasive first-person delivery. She approaches conflict with real passion. She discloses her sexual encounters with an open pragmatic honesty as they reflect the intensity, or lack thereof, of her relationships and the level of respect she holds for herself and for others. Emma's story allows for an intimate examination of guilt and its effects. The Trajectory of a Fallen Angel is evocative of humanity, with all its flaws and heartbreaks, and of the physical environment.

Winner of the Jane Grigson Trust Award 2017 and the Aragonese Academy of Gastronomy’s 2017 Prize for Research New Art of Cookery, Drawn from the School of Economic Experience, was an influential recipe book published in 1745 by Spanish friary cook Juan Altamiras. In it, he wrote up over 200 recipes for meat, poultry, game, salted and fresh fish, vegetables and sweet things in a chatty style aimed at readers who cooked on a modest budget. He showed that economic cookery could be delicious if flavors and aromas were blended with an appreciation for all sorts of ingredients, however humble, and for diverse food cultures, ranging from that of Aragon, his home region, to those of Iberian court and New World kitchens. This first English translation gives guidelines for today’s cooks alongside the original text, and interweaves a new narrative portraying 18th-century Spain, its everyday life, and food culture. The author traces links between New Art’s dishes and modern Spanish cookery, tells the story of her search to identify the book’s author and understand the popularity of his book for over 150 years, and takes travelers, cooks, historians, and students of Spanish language, culture, and gastronomy on a fascinating journey to the world of Altamiras and, most important of all, his kitchen.

In this companion biography to the acclaimed Victoria, A. N. Wilson offers a deeply textured and ambitious portrait of Prince Albert, published to coincide with the 200th anniversary of the royal consort’s birth. For more than six decades, Queen Victoria ruled a great Empire at the height of its power. Beside her for more than twenty of those years was the love of her life, her trusted husband and father of their nine children, Prince Albert. But while Victoria is seen as the embodiment of her time, its values, and its paradoxes, it was Prince Albert, A. N. Wilson expertly argues, who was at the vanguard of Victorian Britain’s transformation as a vibrant and extraordinary center of political, technological, scientific, and intellectual advancement. Far more than just the product of his age, Albert was one of its influencers and architects. A composer, engineer, soldier, politician, linguist, and bibliophile, Prince Albert, more than any other royal, was truly a “genius.” It is impossible to understand nineteenth century England without knowing the story of this gifted visionary leader, Wilson contends. Albert lived only forty-two years. Yet in that time, he fathered the royal dynasties of Germany, Russia, Spain, and Bulgaria. Through Victoria, Albert and her German advisers pioneered the idea of the modern constitutional monarchy. In this sweeping biography, Wilson demonstrates that there was hardly any aspect of British national life which Albert did not touch. When he was made Chancellor of the University of Cambridge in his late twenties, it was considered as purely an honorific role. But within months, Albert proposed an extensive reorganization of university life in Britain that would eventually be adopted, making it possible to study science, languages, and modern history at British universities—a revolution in education that has changed the world. Drawn from the Royal archives, including Prince Albert’s voluminous correspondence, this brilliant and ambitious book offers fascinating never-before-known details about the man and his time. A superb match of biographer and subject, Prince Albert, at last, gives this important historical figure the reverence and recognition that is long overdue.
