Using language - speaking and understanding it - is a defining ability of human beings, woven into all human activity. It is therefore inevitable that it should be deeply implicated in the design, production and use of buildings. Building legislation, design guides, competition and other briefs, architectural criticism, teaching and scholarly material, and the media all produce their characteristic texts. The authors use texts about such projects as Berlin's new Reichstag, Scotland's new Parliament, and the Auschwitz concentration camp museum to clarify the interaction between texts, design, critical debate and response.

Nelle Lockwood, one half of the nightmare detective agencies with her friend and mentor Buck McGraw, is given a most unusual request from the warden of a secretive prison: With Nelle as The Last Sin Eater, she is compelled to help absolve these evil people of their sins, but within the walls of the undersea tempestra prison lurks nightmarish creatures far beyond that of mere mortals... With Buck, Air Marshal Nestor Holden & his cocky corvid Edgar, Nelle must traverse uncomfortable conversations & hardships unlike anything she's ever faced. Author T. J. Lea's (THE EXPRESSIONLESS, NoSleep Podcast, Writers Mythos) "The Last Sin Eater" seeks to bridge the gap between Lovecraftian horror and dark fantasy, provoking difficult conversations, horrific creatures and spine tingling tension. As the inaugural novella in the expanding universe that makes up the collective first book: "Strangeness In Sturgeon: Echoes", what follows in successive novellas due out in 2021 is a blend of mystery, deep-seated horror ranging from the supernatural to the existential, a diverse set of characters and an immersion that makes you feel like you're within each of the unique locales and even more unique nightmares. There's more locked up in this prison than just inmates and Nelle will soon find out that some secrets are best left bounded... "Incredibly visceral, thought-provoking, and filled with unexpected twists, The Last Sin Eater by T. J. Lea is a masterfully written horror tale, although it's definitely not one for the faint of heart. Nelle is a strong and intriguing heroine who brings you along as she unlocks secrets about her past and the Church of the Duskwalkers while dealing with some of the most despicable inmates you'll ever meet." - USA Today bestselling author Angela Campbell.

Based on ethnographic research with asylum seekers living in a ‘direct provision’ centre in Ireland, and comprising participatory visual methods, this work offers a unique examination of the ‘direct provision’ system that analyses the tensions between exclusion and marginalization, and involvement and engagement with local communities. It gives voice to the perspectives of residents themselves through an analysis of photographic images and texts created by the participants of the project, providing fresh insight into the everyday experiences of living in these liminal zones between borders, and the various forms of attachment, engagement and belonging that they create. While the book’s empirical focus is on the Irish context, the analysis sheds light on broader policies and experiences of exclusion and the increasing number of liminal spaces between and within borders in which people seeking protection wait. Situated at the intersection of social anthropology, human geography and participatory arts and visual culture, it will appeal to scholars and students focusing on migration and asylum, ethnicity and integration, as well as those with an interest in participatory and visual research methods.

"A girl-centered Catcher in the Rye for the 21st century. "—Kirkus Reviews, starred review Two outcast best friends are desperate to survive senior year and break away from their dying factory town in Stacia Tolman's The Spaces Between Us, an unforgettable YA debut. Serena Velasco and her best (and only) friend, Melody Grimshaw, are dying to get out of Colchis. Until now they’ve both been coasting, keeping a safe distance from the bleakness of home and the banality of high school. To make things more interesting Serena fixates on communism, eager to get a rise out of their conservative small town. Her Western Civ teacher catches on and challenges her with an independent study of class and upward mobility—what creates the spaces between us. Meanwhile, Grimshaw takes on a mission of her own: to make it onto the cheerleading squad, find a job, and escape the weight of her family’s hopeless reputation. But sometimes the biggest obstacles are the ones you don’t see coming; Grimshaw’s quest for success becomes a fight for survival, and Serena’s independent study gets a little too real. With the future of their friendship and their lives on the line, the stakes have never been so high. Christy Ottaviano Books

Silent reading is now universally accepted as normal; indeed reading aloud to oneself may be interpreted as showing a lack of ability or understanding. Yet reading aloud was usual, indeed unavoidable, throughout antiquity and most of the middle ages. Saenger investigates the origins of the gradual separation of words within a continuous written text and the consequent development of silent reading. He then explores the spread of these practices throughout western Europe, and the eventual domination of silent reading in the late medieval period. A detailed work with substantial notes and appendices for reference.

'Beautiful and heart-rending . . . I could smell Africa on every page' - A. A. GillCaroline Jones was born in Ethiopia and spent most of her childhood in East Africa. She read French and Spanish at Oxford University and went on to make documentaries for the BBC. Now aged 39, she is happily married with two children. Yet beneath this seemingly perfect public exterior, Caroline was in fact privately indulging in a pattern of destructive behaviour that left her exhausted, anxious, depressed and full of self-loathing - from the ages of 17 to 31, for 14 years, Caroline was suffering from an extremely widespread yet comparatively little-talked about mental illness - bulimia. Caroline is articulate, intelligent, insightful and frank about her experiences, interweaving the journey of her illness with memories of her African childhood, her time at Oxford, her work for the BBC, her family and other relationships, making for a warm and engaging memoir. Her perceptive, retrospective approach to her illness allows her to transcend the topic of bulimia and talk more generally about self-destructive behaviour - there are lessons here which will speak to a little part of everyone.
