        A Vision of Battlements

        by Anthony Burgess

        by Andrew Biswell, Paul Wake

        A Vision of Battlements is the first novel by the writer and composer Anthony Burgess, who was born in Manchester in 1917. Set in Gibraltar during the Second World War, the book follows the fortunes of Richard Ennis, an army sergeant and incipient composer who dreams of composing great music and building a new cultural world after the end of the war. Following the example of his literary hero, James Joyce, Burgess takes the structure of his book from Virgil's Aeneid. The result is, like Joyce's Ulysses, a comic rewriting of a classical epic, whose critique of the Army and the postwar settlement is sharp and assured. The Irwell Edition is the first publication of Burgess's forgotten masterpiece since 1965. This new edition includes an introduction and notes by Andrew Biswell, author of a prize-winning biography of Anthony Burgess.

        by J.T. Lundy

Now, thanks to a meddling ex-wife and a golf cart fiasco, he has just thirty days to pay a $60,000 fine or go to jail.Jason was hoping his Aunt Clara would come to his rescue, but she unexpectedly dies, gifting her liquid assets to charity. She does, however, will Jason a picturesque French vineyard--and it's worth millions. But there's a catch! If Jason goes to jail, the vineyard will transfer to his unscrupulous stepbrother.To raise the cash he needs, Jason travels to France with his knucklehead of a best friend to sell the vineyard. Cashing in will not be so simple, though. Formidable nuns farm the vineyard, and he needs their blessing to sell. To persuade the good sisters, Jason attempts a madcap series of dubious schemes, and while doing so falls for what he thinks is the perfect French woman. Amidst this melee of wine, women, nuns, and villains, Jason must unearth his true values in order to save more than just his soul.Infused with J.T. Lundy's deliciously skewed sense of humor, and full of flawed but irresistible characters, Saving Grapes is a rollicking, good-hearted Wodehousian comedy that speaks to the hapless romantic in all of us.

        To Those Who Killed Me

        by J.T. Siemens

        Disgraced ex-cop Sloane Donovan has relied on her job as a fitness instructor to keep her mental illness and PTSD in check—until she finds a close friend dead, apparently by her own hand. Obsessive demons triggered and doubtful of the official narrative, she teams up with Wayne Capson, a PI willing to bend the law, to find out who really killed her friend. The search leads Sloane from Vancouver's wealthiest enclaves to the street's darkest corners, questioning millionaires, tennis instructors, sex workers, former police colleagues—anyone who might provide answers.   Recalling the works of Jo Nesbø and Gillian Flynn, J.T. Siemens’s To Those Who Killed Me is a debut that provides a heavy dose of hardboiled suspense and introduces a fiery new heroine in crime fiction.

        Brave Little Engine

        by J.T. Chapin (author), Clyde Peterson (Illustrator)

        Remember the way children’s books used to be? Exciting bedtime stories with bright painted pictures, read by mom or dad or grandma or grandpa? Elm Grove Publishing presents the first in a special series of classical style children’s books, never before published, featuring brand new stories and characters with a traditional, feel-good flavor. Written almost 50 years ago by an upcoming writer for his 3 year old daughter, and superbly illustrated by then unknown cartoonist Clyde Peterson (C.P. Houston), Chuff Chuff: Brave Little Engine is a timeless story of heroism. Of never giving up hope, even when things seem to be as bad as they can get.  Chuff Chuff, a rusty little railroad engine, and his old engineer are about to be retired, when they bravely volunteer for a dangerous rescue mission because all the shiny new engines won’t go… Specially designed and printed for grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles, even big brothers and sisters, to read to small children, the story of Chuff Chuff will capture the imagination and the heart of the whole family.

        Asian Vegetables

        by Caroline Ho-Yi Wang, Patricia Ho-Yi Wang, Stéphanie Ho-Yi Wang, photos by Virginie Gosselin

        If bok choy has been able to acquire a prominent place on Western shelves, many other Asian vegetables still remain unknown. But these tasty, nutritious vegetables can be easily grown in temperate, and even northern, climates! Caroline, Stephanie andPatricia Ho-Yi Wang, three sisters of Cantonese origin, have made it their mission to introduce these vegetables, which everyone will love, in a unique book that is both a guide to gardening and a cookbook, as well as the story of a family. Presenting 15 Asian vegetables according to each season, the book offers advice to Sunday gardeners as well as future market gardeners on how to organically grow and harvest these vegetables, as well as provides preservation techniques, nutritional information and cookingmethods. Around forty recipes, some of which were created by famous chefs, are presented as well. The Wang sisters also explore the world of Asian vegetables from a cultural point of view, tracing the place that these hold in their own lives and in those of their family members, many of whom left China to emigrate to Madagascar before finally settling in Quebec. A true homage to the earth, good food and one’s roots!

Le livre interactif illustré écrit en rimes a été créé pour enseigner dès le plus jeune âge les compétences STEM fondamentales (ex. : abstraction, perception spatiale, reconnaissance des formes) et pour développer les compétences cognitives du 21ème siècle (les « 4 C » : Critical thinking (Pensée critique), Créativité, Coopération et Communication) de manière ludique. The Adventures of Lillicorn series is designed to introduce little engineers and budding computer scientists to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) skills such as structured problem solving, creative thinking, pattern recognition and coding within a playful, imaginative and interactive way. Featuring a young curious heroine, who has a passion for science and coding, and loves to find creative solutions on her many quests.
