The nine surviving children of the Hegarty clan gather in Dublin for the wake of their wayward brother Liam. It wasn`t the drink that killed him - although that certainly helped - it was what happened to him as a boy in his grandmother`s house, in the winter of 1968. "The Gathering" is a novel about love and disappointment, about thwarted lust and limitless desire, and how our fate is written in the body, not in the stars.

"Gaunty`s Best of British" is one man`s cheerful look at what`s right - and what`s wrong - with his country, and a brilliantly entertaining guide to how Britain can be Great again. Jon Gaunt embarks on a tour of the best bits of this green and pleasant land, celebrating all things British. His forthright tribute is an aptly eclectic collection, covering everything from cricket, foxhunting and the FA Cup, to great inventions like the Spitfire, the Mini and the miniskirt, and our unofficial national cuisine of fish and chips washed down with a cup of tea or a pint of real ale.

From the targeting of schools and hospitals, to the indiscriminate use of white phosphorus, Israel`s conduct in `Operation Cast Lead` has rattled even some of its most strident supporters. In this book, Noam Chomsky and Ilan Pappe survey the fallout from that devastation, and place the massacre in Gaza in the context of Israel`s long-standing war against the Palestinians. "Gaza in Crisis" is a rigorous, historically informed and much-needed analysis of the situation and will be welcomed by all those eager for Chomsky`s insights into yet another political catastrophe.
