A young girl's search for her identity and for a love that can overcome her past. Questa Adamson is stranded in Italy for the duration of the Second World War. When she finally returns to England she is haunted by terrible memories. She finds that the safe childhood world she remembers has disappeared and that she is as alone in her home country as she has been in Italy. She also finds that she has inherited a tumbledown manor house in Shropshire and is determined to restore the estate to its former glory, despite rationing and post-war austerity. And when she meets her mysterious neighbor, Marcus, it seems as if she might, at last, begin to drop her guard and learn to love. But loving Marcus brings its own special difficulties and Questa soon finds herself faced with an extraordinary and painful choice.

Not sure where to start with your beachscape paintings? These beautiful, simple colour recipes will see you on your way to paint glorious, sun-drenched tropical beachscapes in no time. As an impatient painter, I like to get as much vital information down as fast as possible. As a ersult, over the last 20-odd years, I've developed a series of "paint recipes" to help. As a professional artist, these recipes have proved invaluable to me. This studio reference guide has interactive features with accompanying video tutorials, and is designed so that you paint your colour mixes directly onto the pages. If you're not happy with the result, simply wipe off! I hope you have fun playing with these recipes, modifying them to suit your unique style and generally enjoying the dance with paint as much as I do. Mark Waller.

“An intriguing amalgam of personal memoir, philosophical speculation, natural lore, cultural history, and art criticism.” —Los Angeles Times From the award-winning author of Orwell's Roses, a stimulating exploration of wandering, being lost, and the uses of the unknown Written as a series of autobiographical essays, A Field Guide to Getting Lost draws on emblematic moments and relationships in Rebecca Solnit's life to explore issues of uncertainty, trust, loss, memory, desire, and place. Solnit is interested in the stories we use to navigate our way through the world, and the places we traverse, from wilderness to cities, in finding ourselves, or losing ourselves. While deeply personal, her own stories link up to larger stories, from captivity narratives of early Americans to the use of the color blue in Renaissance painting, not to mention encounters with tortoises, monks, punk rockers, mountains, deserts, and the movie Vertigo. The result is a distinctive, stimulating voyage of discovery.
