Product Description
Elizabeth Bartlett's powerfully evocative poems are remarkable for their painfully truthful insights into people's lives. She worked for many years in the Health Service, and Peter Forbes has called her poetry's chronicler of today's 'damaged Britain'...'She writes about people in extreme states, some of which she has experienced herself...' In her 80th birthday collection, Mrs Perkins and Oedipus, she mourns the loss of her husband and squares up to ill fortune, but recalls past loves and times with openness, honesty and stoically grouchy humour. 'She fills her poems with ordinary, awkward lives and voices, fleshing out her casebook with a deftness that is only apparently offhand, unshockable. The emotional payload is in fact often dizzying' - Carol Rumens 'A kind of weird cross between Anne Sexton and Philip Larkin, Bartlett has more to say about a pitiful Britain over the last 40 years than almost any other poet I can think of' - Adam Thorpe, Observer 'She is a remorseless truth-teller...Hers is the daybook of a night-nurse of the soul' - John Mole, Encounter 'Truthful, powerful and unexaggerated.The deprivations of childhood become the deprivations of adulthood and then the disappointments and loneliness of middle age. But Ms Bartlett is captain of her own soul...heartening and liberating' - Peter Porter, Observer 'Bartlett's poetry is certainly gritty. It is sometimes surreal. But it is also brave, and witty, and sardonic, and full of feeling' - Rosemarie Bailey, Envoi 'Poetry at once companionable, humane, recognisable, and utterly serious, a matter of life and death rendered almost abstract by its attention to detail' - Sian Hughes, Times Literary Supplement ...

A terrific read..
`Fang Bangers' has something for everyone who savours dark and erotic writing. Think bittersweet chocolates, each with a rich, creamy filling. Think hot black coffee laced with a heady liqueur that trickles down your throat and awakens your entire body. Prepare to fly high but also to be grounded. Pinned down maybe by a fabulous creature whose trappings of fur and claws dissolve to reveal the kind of body that you dream of possessing. Or of being possessed by...?

The backdrops to these stories range from luxury residence to no-frills hotel room: from lush forest to sleazy bar. There's a poignant theme of restless souls seeking satisfaction and the stories mentioned below highlight what's on offer in this impressive collection.

In Shattered Resistance, Suzy stalks Dane, a guy she describes as dangerous, sexy and immortal. Suzy is driven by desire and determination. Two irresistible forces lead to one fascinating story as strong wills clash. Ah, did I mention dishy Dane's a vampire to die for?

Mate Run is old as time and fresh as today. It's a shape-shifting, lip-licking, evocative story with a strong love theme which will appeal to the romantics among us. It also has a high erotic charge.

If you thought Dane the vampire was a dish, you'll also thrill to The Best Man in the story of that name. This is a great example of two people's yearnings being fulfilled as nature girl meets werewolf.

Fixation will send a shiver down your spine as well as blast you with growly jungle heat. While Love Bites: A Survival Guide is a cleverly-constructed and comprehensive take on love in a world that defies reason.

With fourteen stories to dip into, there's plenty to please everyone. So bring on the va-va-vampires. Zoom in on the zombies. Sit back and let your imagination send you running with the wild ones. In our world where electronic devices control civilization, maybe we especially need a taste of beings beyond our comprehension.

Stories of the Pilgrims
Loved using this book in our home school. Very informative. I wish there were illustrations, but we looked for and found pictures on line.

Classic Stories As They Were Originally Penned
I purchased a copy of this book from Christian Liberty Press to use with our Beautiful Feet American History. Upon opening the book I was devistated to find the stories had been "rewritten/sanitized" to make them politically correct/less offensive and to fit the theology of the Reformed Church/Christian Liberty School.
Thank goodness Lisa Ripperton and her staff at Yesterday's Classics are in business! The title pretty much says it all. Yesterday's Classics are reprinted books of classics as they were originally penned by the author.
In the post modern 21st Century it is nice to know you can still purchase classic works at an affordable price.

great book
This is a great book for the whole family. Good to read anytime but especially before Thanksgiving.

Wonderful storytelling
I borrowed this book to read it to my daughter when she was in second grade. She loved it. She's now in 6th grade and still remembers many details of the book because they had that much of an impression on her.You can imagine yourself being with these Pilgrims, waiting in the dark on the beach for the boat to arrive.Now that my son is 4, I wanted to make sure I had a copy of my own to read to him.This is definitely one to add to your personal library.

An excellent read - my kids BEGGED to do History!
We read this book as a part of our homeschool History curriculum this year.It was very informative and entertaining. My children (ages 6 and 8) absolutely loved it. We have the older version, and my kids didn't even mind the lack of color and the sparse illustrations.They begged me ,"One more chapter...please, Mom?!"

I would say the only thing I did not care for in this book was the way they portray the Indians.Other than Squanto, Samoset and Massasoit, all of the other Indians are viewed as 'savages' (and not very intelligent ones, at that.) In the last few chapters, they are even used as 'comic relief.' She also has them speaking the word 'Ugh' a lot...such as "Ugh! White squaw bring me cider!"
I thought that was a little unrealistic, and insulting as well.

The information on the Pilgrims is wonderful, and she really brought their journey alive.

If you can overlook the Indian parts, I would highly recommend this book. ... Read more

Product Description
A compendious anthology of women's writing on film.

As viewers, actresses, directors and writers, women were centrally involved in cinema throughout the first half of the twentieth centuryindeed film-going was the most important way in which women participated in the era's urban mass culture. However, the significance of women's early contributions has until now remained scant and dispersed, eclipsed in historical opinion formed through the texts of men.

In magisterial scale Red Velvet Seat restores this film culture to visibility, using women's written accounts from the beginnings up to 1950 to understand the significance of cinema for them. Sources include fashion and parenting magazines, newspapers and literary journals, memoirs and etiquette guides, while contributors range from novelists such as Virginia Woolf, Colette and Rebecca West to psychoanalysts, poets, social reformers, labor organizers, film editors, screen beauties, and race activists. For each section, Antonia Lant and Ingrid Periz provide an introduction, explaining the historical context and linking their themes to the major social and political movements of their time, as well as to more traditionally feminine concerns.

Compendious and absorbing, Red Velvet Seat is an invaluable contribution to the history of cinema.
