The Collected Works of Billy the Kid - Michael Ondaatje

Booker prize winning author Michael Ondaatje invites you on a brutal, beautiful journey into the American West. . . At twenty-one years old, Billy the Kid has killed a man for each year he’s been alive. Roaming the blasted planes of the Wild West, he moves between friends, foes and lovers, fighting to keep just one step ahead of the law. Yet in this twisted wasteland – a country of mad dogs, of sweat and gore and blinding heat – the sheriffs play dirty too. Melding prose, poetry, imagined interviews and ephemeral photography, Ondaatje weaves together a lyrical reinterpretation of Billy’s short, infamous existence, forming a portrait of a young man, and a young country, borne out of violence, threaded through with disaster, yet rich in wonder. ‘Ondaatje’s language is clean and energetic, with the pop of bullets. This is literature, art.’ Annie Dillard'Ondaatje’s eye for detail is wonderful and he uses it poetically, with superb restraint' Larry McMurtry

Dominique: The Case of an Adolescent - Francoise Dolto

The case of a psychotic 14 year-old boy presented in its full form by the renowned French psychoanalyst. With transcription of comments and reactions made by the child, his parents and the therapist. Francoise Dolto stands alongside Jacques Lacan as a leading light of the Other French school, but is little translated and curiously unknown in the English-speaking world. In her lifetime, Dolto''s research was integrated into schools, hospitals and popular media at a national level. First published in 1971, reading Dominique now gives a granular portrait of an adolescent''s subjectivity and its familial and state inheritance. As such the book is an historical example of how the secular Republic of Metropolitan France produced forms of thought. trans. Ivan Kats, revised by Lionel and Sham Bailly Afterword by Michael Ryzner-Basiewicz.
