Capricorn has invited the most powerful rulers across the four corners of creation to his Court to celebrate the coming-of-age of his precious daughter. However, tensions run high and old grudges start to resurface when all signs point to a hidden agenda amongst both the host and the guests. Will the Court of Capricorn remain a garden of sanctuary and peace, or will it turn into a place of judgement and trial-by-fire? Far deep into the East, Cancer stands in her abode, contemplating the letter in her hand in the light of the dawn, the same dawn that will soon come to all. Turning to her handmaiden who is already at work on the loom at the early hour, "Come, it is time to see your father," she says to the young women who stares back blankly. Up in the North, Libra stands aloft on the balcony of her high tower. Surrounded by countless stories and books from her library, she stands intrigued, for the first time in ages,in what she just read. Speaking to herself, "My, my, my... Well, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to touch base with that old goat. Things have been a bit dry as of late." She lets go of the letter as it glides gently to the streets far below. Aries surveys the field of the West, savoring the sweet taste of victory of his most recent "merger. "On the horizon, a lone horseman can be seen heading in his direction, carrying some sort of message, no doubt. As with all things, the recent high of his victory was already passing, and thrills of his next exploit were beginning to swell inside him. Crumbling the letter in his fist, he drops it to the ground. "Brother, what are you planning now?" The Court of Capricorn is a play on words about the hidden magic behind language. Filled with a cast of distinguished and unforgettable characters, prepare for a story that even the stars themselves pay heed to.

The Ninth Wave, published in 1956, follows a political campaign complete with then cutting-edge innovations of opinion polling, computers and the use of campaign consultants. Though we now know -- even in a world of Facebook and Obama -- that data and numbers can't quite predict and control political outcomes in the way the book lays out, the world has turned out close enough to Burdick's picture of the future to make The Ninth Wave a prescient and still relevant story, and one that should be loved by people who are into the mechanics of politics.

A cult modern classic, Tropic of Capricorn is as daring, frank and influential as Henry Miller first novel, Tropic of Cancer A story of sexual and spiritual awakening, Tropic of Capricorn shocked readers when it was published in 1939. A mixture of fiction and autobiography, it is the story of Henry V. Miller who works for the Cosmodemonic telegraph company in New York in the 1920s and tries to write the most important work of literature that was ever published. Tropic of Capricorn paints a dazzling picture of the life of the writer and of New York City between the wars: the skyscrapers and the sewers, the lust and the dejection, the smells and the sounds of a city that is perpetually in motion, threatening to swallow everyone and everything. 'Literature begins and ends with the meaning of what Miller has done' Lawrence Durrell 'The only imaginative prose-writer of the slightest value who has appeared among the English-speaking races for some years past' George Orwell 'The greatest American writer' Bob Dylan Henry Miller (1891-1980) is one of the most important American writers of the 20th century. His best-known novels include Tropic of Cancer (1934), Tropic of Capricorn (1939), and the Rosy Crucifixion trilogy (Sexus, 1949, Plexus, 1953, and Nexus, 1959), all published in France and banned in the US and the UK until 1964. He is widely recognised as an irreverent, risk-taking writer who redefined the novel and made the link between the European avant-garde and the American Beat generation.
