Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2024Ageing and new intimacies
Gender, sexuality and temporality in an English salsa scene
by Sarah Milton
The 'baby boom' generation, born between the 1940s and the 1960s, is often credited with pioneering new and creative ways of relating, doing intimacy and making families. With this cohort of men and women in Britain now entering mid and later life, they are also said to be revolutionising the experience of ageing. Are the romantic practices of this 'revolutionary cohort' breaking with tradition and allowing new ways of understanding and doing ageing and relating to emerge? Based on ethnographic fieldwork in salsa classes and life history interviews, this book documents the meanings of desire and romance, and 'new' intimacies, among women in mid and later life. Challenging notions of the revolutionary 'baby boomers', it details how these practices, experiences and identities are intersected and informed by age, class, whiteness, and a pervasive concern to remain respectable.

HumourEven More Ketchup than Salsa
The Final Dollop
by Joe Cawley
If the first six months of running the Smugglers Tavern had been a baptism of fire, the subsequent years were about as much fun as bobbing for apples in a vat of acid. Having swapped the tin roof of a cold British fish market for the sunny skies of a Spanish holiday island, Joe and Joy succeeded in thwarting the first wave of attacks from bungling bureaucrats, bewildered holidaymakers and their own spectacular ineptitude. What they didn’t realise was that their enemies were regrouping. Not only that, but those enemies had made camp a lot closer to home, enemies that would make their encounters with the exploding gas bottles, East European squatters and big-time Charlies featured in the first book, More Ketchup than Salsa, seem like chapters from Enid Blyton. The trials and tribulations of attempting to make a better life abroad continue... with disastrous consequences.

FictionMarch 2019The Black Tulip Collection
by Juan José Vidal Wood
A fast-paced, engaging novel of suspense and intrigue where secret desires, ambitions, and a long-forgotten mystery come together on a historical journey through Europe and Asia. Lucas Vascones is a Chilean who has lived in Shanghai for many years. One afternoon he receives a call that jerks him out of his routine: his old martial arts master has died, and his funeral will be held in Kunming, in southern China. Lucas decides to attend, though with some reservations: ten years earlier, a dispute with Tang brought their relationship to an abrupt and definitive end. At the funeral, Master Tang’s widow approaches Lucas and asks him to write her husband’s posthumous biography. Alfred Tang had been a celebrity in martial arts circles: after starring in a number of martial arts films, he went on to build an international empire of prestigious martial arts academies. At first, Lucas tries to evade the proposal but ultimately accepts, prompted by his curiosity as well as his own secret dream of becoming a writer. Mrs. Tang hands him a set of boxes filled with material so that he can start his research. In one of the boxes Lucas finds a journal filled with notes, a tiny picture of the sixteenth-century Italian missionary Mateo Ricci, and a beautiful drawing of a library with books in all different colors. Bewildered by the discovery, Lucas enlists help from Tang’s daughter, who connects him to an old friend of her father’s, a university professor by the name of Yan. Lucas meets with Professor Yang, who tells him about the black tulips, a collection of books that had once belonged to the sixteenth century Jesuit missionary Mateo Ricci, who was born in Italy but lived and died in China. The professor fills him in on several details, most interestingly the name of the last known owner of the “black tulip” book collection, a businessman from southern China. Professor Yang also shows Lucas some old film footage from the 1950s featuring a young Alfred Tang practicing the cha-cha-cha with a beautiful, exotic woman by the name of Vicky Cifuentes. The professor tells Lucas that if he wishes to find the collection and learn more about Alfred Tang, he must call on the beautiful Vicky. To Lucas’ surprise she is still alive, living in Hong Kong. Lucas decides to visit her, and this short trip becomes the first step on a series of unforgettable events that will lead him through Asia and Europe, where his life will change in the quest to uncover the truth – about the books, about his martial arts master, and about history itself.

FictionThe Merchant of Bullshit
by J.D.B.
A rotting gene has infiltrated mankind’s cognitive process at an advanced level and turned it into gibberish. Moreover, the Dronzyme, an integral part of the Detox Unorthodox advocated by major forces in the Consultancy Sector, actively stimulates the production of this gene via a benign mucous in the larynx. Soon, under the auspices of the Catallus Group, a new language and functionality possesses the mindset, and no one is considered immune. The Capital itself becomes a repository for degenerate ideas and concepts, whose terror becomes flesh with the birth of a quasi-physical oaf. Herein is the awful truth of the Schnimp, and the Corporate Giants now forced to obey its commands... in a unprecedented wave of NONSENSE. The explanation: The Merchant of Bullshit is a satire on the City of London, and its all-pervading, meaningless jargon, part of the global war against intelligence, as documented by someone who worked nights for over 15 years immersed in it. The author: (location unknown) lives in a shed in Myrddin’s Precinct where he communes with drunken spirits and entities, and launches vitriolic assaults against the Satanic Inertias of the Capital, soon to be revisited in The Gnat. A series of endless night-shifts in the Ancient City of London drives him to the terrifying conclusion that its entire existence is a Hoax – a bankrupt Government, media and economy imprisoned in a Tower of Babble. But can a man certified as insane – twice – complete his mission to rescue the intellectual heritage of his Nation? Who knows. For now, he sleeps amid the empty quarts and flasks, waiting to spring forth from his chrysalis...

The Second Penis
by J.D.B.
Londinyia: a Capital in Crisis. Gripped by a species of perversion without parallel in the long, sordid annals of the Alpha Male. As the Decency Tax extends across all districts and zones, the Emancipation Party declares war on the deviant insurgency. Amid the vast armoury of weapons employed, the Proctallator, irSpex and the notorious Schnuffler, stand primed to unleash an avalanche of moral fury. Meanwhile, the Spectre of Deceit looms over the Party HQ, the Pyramex, rocked by dysfunctional mandroids, a Steering Committee mired in scandal and mutiny among the D-Squad ranks. Only Corporal Lillian Scarpello and her loyal beta-adjutant, Sir Lucien Picene, it seems, stand between Londinyia – and the Abyss. The explanation: The Second Penis is a satire on the City of London and its assumptions about behaviour, and supposed patterns of normality, taken to an absurd level. The author: (location unknown) lives in a shed in Myrddin’s Precinct where he communes with drunken spirits and entities, and launches vitriolic assaults against the Satanic Inertias of the Capital, soon to be revisited in The Gnat. A series of endless night-shifts in the Ancient City of London drives him to the terrifying conclusion that its entire existence is a Hoax – a bankrupt Government, media and economy imprisoned in a Tower of Babble. But can a man certified as insane – twice – complete his mission to rescue the intellectual heritage of his Nation? Who knows.

Travel & holiday guidesDecember 2010Venezuela
The Bradt Travel Guide.
by Russell Maddicks
Venezuela occasionally features in world news in connection with its rich oil resources, its obsession with beauty pageants, its outspoken and colourful president, Hugo Chávez, or the world's highest waterfall – and little else. However, beyond the headlines, this beautiful and diverse country has so much more to offer to all types of visitors – hiking the 'Lost World' landscape of Conan Doyle, piranha-fishing from dugout canoes, paragliding from Andean peaks and windsurfing on Margarita Island. Taking travellers to the wildest of fiestas, inside the steamiest salsa bars and introducing visitors to the quirkiest of local customs, Bradt's Venezuela leads tourists from the Caribbean coast to the southern tropical wilderness, delving into the culture and eccentricities of the country more deeply than any other guide.

A Tiara Investigations Mystery
by Lane Stone
Aging Georgia beauty queens––Leigh, Tara, and Victoria––are at it again! When they arrive at a restaurant for a meeting with a potential client (whom they’ve designated Pop Tart) for their budding private eye firm Tiara Investigations, they find the man dead––face down in a bowl of salsa. What’s going on? The man was only concerned about his daughter’s husband’s fidelity, but this death has all the trappings of murder. Before the trio can wave queen-like, the restaurant manager and the police arrive, and they are only able to surreptitiously grab a few clues from the crime scene. When the threesome gather the next day to attend Tara’s boyfriend’s stepfather’s funeral, they are aghast to discover that their dead almost-client is the honoree. Soon, more coincidences occur as the dead man disappears, then reappears. The girls put their beautifully coiffed heads together to discuss the clues they’ve gathered to Pop Tart’s murder. Just what is the meaning of the strange terms he wrote on his napkin? Just what is the significance of the words the waiter overheard him mutter before he died? And why is Homeland Security involved? Will these clues lead to nowhere or will Tiara Investigations put it all together, find the killer, and save the day? They can and they will, because for this bevy of beauties, it’s more than just DOMESTIC AFFAIRS.
