The last novel from the unsurpassed master of American detective fiction, Dashiell Hammett s The Thin Man is a genre-defining mystery novel, published in Penguin Modern Classics.Ex-detective Nick Charles plans to spend a quiet Christmas holed up in a hotel suite with his glamorous wife Nora, their pet Schnauzer and a case of good Scotch. But then a bullet-riddled corpse and a missing inventor (not to mention the attentions of a beautiful young woman) force him out of retirement and back into business. Trying to make sense of false leads, suspicious alibis and mistaken identities, Nick and Nora are thrown into a world of gangsters, hoodlums and speakeasies, where no-one can be trusted. Dashiell Hammett was credited with inventing the hardboiled crime novel, and this story of murder and mayhem in Manhattan, with its breakneck plot, snappy dialogue - and the hard-drinking, wisecracking couple Nick and Nora - is one of his most thrillingly enjoyable mysteries. Dashiel Samuel Hammett (1894-1961) was born on a farm in southern Maryland, and grew up in Philadelphia and Baltimore. He left school at the age of fourteen, and after various jobs became an operative for Pinkerton s Detective Agency. The First World War intervened, and Hammett soon turned to writing, becoming, during the 1920s, the unquestioned master of detective-story fiction in America. The Maltese Falcon (1930), The Thin Man (1932) and The Glass Key (1931) are among his most famous novels. If you enjoyed The Thin Man, you might like Raymond Chandler s The Big Sleep and Other Novels, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

Whether you re an avid student of the Bible or a skeptic of its relevance, The Book That Made Your World will transform your perception of its influence on virtually every facet of Western civilization.Indian philosopher Vishal Mangalwadi reveals the personal motivation that fueled his own study of the Bible and systematically illustrates how its precepts became the framework for societal structure throughout the last millennium. From politics and science, to academia and technology, the Bible s sacred copy became the key that unlocked the Western mind.Through Mangalwadi s wide-ranging and fascinating investigation, you ll discover:What triggered the West s passion for scientific, medical, and technological advancementHow the biblical notion of human dignity informs the West s social structure and how it intersects with other worldviewsHow the Bible created a fertile ground for women to find social and economic empowermentHow the Bible has uniquely equipped the West to cultivate compassion, human rights, prosperity, and strong familiesThe role of the Bible in the transformation of educationHow the modern literary notion of a hero has been shaped by the Bible s archetypal protagonist Journey with Mangalwadi as he examines the origins of a civilization s greatness and the misguided beliefs that threaten to unravel its progress. Learn how the Bible transformed the social, political, and religious institutions that have sustained Western culture for the past millennium, and discover how secular corruption endangers the stability and longevity of Western civilization. Endorsements:“In polite society, the mere mention of the Bible often introduces a certain measure of anxiety. A serious discussion on the Bible can bring outright contempt. Therefore, it is most refreshing to encounter this engaging and informed assessment of the Bible’s profound impact on the modern world. Where Bloom laments the closing of the American mind, Mangalwadi brings a refreshing optimism.” (Stanley Mattson, founder and president, C. S. Lewis Foundation)“Vishal Mangalwadi recounts history in very broad strokes, always using his cross-cultural perspectives for highlighting the many benefits of biblical principles in shaping civilization.” (George Marsden, professor, University of Notre Dame; author, Fundamentalism and American Culture)

Boston, mid-seventeenth century: Hester Prynne, dignified and silent, is led through prison doors to her public shaming by her censorious Puritan neighbors. Holding her illegitimate child to her breast and bearing a bright scarlet letter A embroidered on her bodice, Hester must now struggle to create a new life for herself and her child in this harsh and unforgiving community. When her missing spouse reappears and takes up residence in town under an assumed identity, the stage is set for an explosive confrontation between the truly moral and the merely religious.Literary history and meaning: The Scarlet Letter, by Nathaniel Hawthorne, was first published in 1850. It is a novel set in Puritan New England in the seventeenth century, and it tells the story of Hester Prynne, a woman who is branded with a scarlet letter A as punishment for committing adultery. The novel delves into themes of sin, guilt, redemption, and the harsh judgment of society. Nathaniel Hawthorne #39;s exploration of these themes, coupled with his rich symbolism and intricate prose, has solidified The Scarlet Letter as a classic work of American literature. Its enduring relevance lies in its exploration of moral ambiguity, individual conscience, and the consequences of societal hypocrisy, which continue to resonate with readers today.

I was riveted by every single page ELIZABETH DAY Dazzling and surprising CLOVER STROUD I loved this book JULIA SAMUEL Timely and important JEANETTE WINTERSONHow have secrets changed over the generations, and what does that tell us about ourselves and our world? In her intimate new book, bestselling social historian Juliet Nicolson uncovers one of the most enigmatic yet revealing aspects of human behaviour. According to a leading American psychotherapist most of us are keeping thirteen secrets at any one time. Secrets can thrill, but they are just as likely to torment; and the deepest ones echo far down the generations.The secrets we keep inside reflect the conventions and taboos of the world outside. As women traditionally sit at the heart of family life, their secrets can open a unique window onto wider society. The Book of Revelations unlocks a period of significant transformation for women, from the restrictions just after the Second World War, through the emancipation of the 1960s and 1970s, to the opportunities and dangers women meet online today.As we travel through time, we encounter deeply moving first-person stories, rich social history and Juliet’s own experiences of secrecy. We witness long-buried family secrets shared at last, their keepers set free. Finally, we are forced to wonder whether, after a steady upwards curve of liberation, our daughters and granddaughters are once again in danger of being curtailed by censure, caution and fear.Or will they learn from the secrets of the past, to find a more secure footing for the future?

In the first days of spring in his eighty-second year, Gerald Murnane â “ perhaps the greatest living writer of English prose â “ began a project that would round off his strange career as a novelist. He would read all of his books in turn and prepare a report on each. His original intention was to lodge the reports in two of his legendary filing cabinets: in the Chronological Archive, which documents his life as a whole, and the Literary Archive, which is devoted to everything he has written. As the reports grew, however, they themselves took on the form of a book, a book as beguiling and hallucinatory, in its way, as the works on which they were meant to report. These miniature memoirs or stories lead the reader through the capacious territory Murnane refers to as his mind: they dwell on the circumstances that gave rise to his writing, on images and associations, on Murnaneâ ™s own theories of fiction, and then memories of a deeply personal kind. The final essay is, of course, on Last Letter to a Reader itself: it considers the elation and exhilaration that accompany the act of writing, and offers a moving finale to what must surely be Murnaneâ ™s last work, as death approaches.

Manderley Press is delighted to announce the publication of a brand-new edition of Helene Hanff s Letter from New York - another literary jewel from the author of 84, Charing Cross Road. To showcase this wonderful book, we commissioned the New York Times bestselling author Jean Hanff Korelitz (The Plot) to pen a new introduction - she is a cousin of Helene Hanff s, and was inspired to become a writer after meeting her as a teenager. The front cover was specially designed by New Yorker illustrator Bruce Eric Kaplan, also a fan of the author and a resident of New York City too. Over several years, Helene Hanff read aloud these stories of her life in New York for BBC Radio 4 s Woman s Hour. This book is a collection of selected scripts from this series, composed with a British audience in mind, in which the author offers us a glimpse into her own everyday tales of the city. Written in her trademark whimsical and upbeat style, Helene Hanff transports us right to the heart of Manhattan in the 1980s, describing her favourite places, people and pets with gentle humour, and introducing the reader to the ups and downs of life in a high-rise apartment building in New York City ( the last small town in America ). We are introduced to Bentley, the Old English Sheepdog belonging to a neighbour who captured the author s heart; we take a stroll through the beautiful Shakespeare s Garden in Central Park; and we join the author to enjoy annual city parades down Fifth Avenue - especially the St Patrick s Day parade, when the whole of New York turned green. And we meet Helene s friends: Arlene, whose glamorous social life - and wardrobe - puts Hanff s tiny apartment and simple writer s life into perspective, and Nina, whose garden on the sixteenth-floor overflows with flowers and fruit trees. Finally, we accompany the author as she travels to London to celebrate the opening night of the dramatisation of her best-selling book 84, Charing Cross Road. What started out as a six-month trial in 1978 eventually turned into a six-year project, during which time Helene Hanff captivated radio audiences with her monthly broadcasts - each one a love letter to her beloved NYC. Long before the cast of Friends - and Sarah Jessica Parker s iconic evocation of life in the city - recreated a New York existence for us to experience vicariously, these 5-minute vignettes were the perfect way for native New Yorkers and international readers alike, to revel in the quotidian as well as the glamour of city life, and to discover the unexpected hidden gems - and treasured traditions - of New York City. Letter from New York is still a delight to read, 40 years after it was first written - a timeless and beguiling tale of everyday life in this great city, by one of the best-loved authors of the 20th-century.

The Shadow of the Mine tells the story of King Coal in its heyday, the heroics and betrayals of the Miners’ Strike, and what happened to mining communities after the last pits closed.No one personified the age of industry more than the miners. Coal was central to the British economy, powering its factories and railways. It carried political weight, too. In the eighties the miners risked everything in a year-long strike against Thatcher’s shutdowns. Their defeat doomed a way of life. The lingering sense of abandonment in former mining communities would be difficult to overstate. Yet recent electoral politics has revolved around the coalfield constituencies in Labour’s Red Wall. Huw Beynon and Ray Hudson draw on decades of research to chronicle these momentous changes through the words of the people who lived through them.This edition includes a new postscript on why Thatcher’s war on the miners wasn’t good for green politics. ‘Excellent’NEW STATESMAN ‘Brilliant’TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT‘Enlightening’GUARDIAN

Depend upon it, God s work done in God s way will never lack God s supplies. - Hudson Taylor Hudson Taylor was ...one of the greatest missionaries of all time, and... one of the four or five most influential foreigners who came to China in the nineteenth century for any purpose... - Kenneth Scott Latourette (Author, A History of the Expansion of Christianity) No other missionary since the Apostle Paul has had a wider vision and has carried out a more systematized plan of evangelizing a broad geographical area than Hudson Taylor. - Ruth Tucker (author of From Jerusalem to Irian Jaya: A Biographical History of Christian Missions.)A single sentence in 1869 transformed Hudson Taylor s life and consequently the lives of hundreds of people in England and thousands of Chinese converts. After his experience he exclaimed Oh, Mr Judd, God has made me a new man! God has made me a new man! Hudson Taylor s spiritual secret was the realization of what it meant to be in union with Christ: daily, even hourly, resting in his presence provided seemingly inexhaustible joy, peace, and energy. These were obvious to those who observed him in his strenuous life of prodigious missionary work. His colleague Charles Judd recorded, He was a joyous man now, a bright happy Christian. He had been a toiling, burdened one before, with latterly not much rest of soul. ... Whenever he spoke in meetings after that, a new power seemed to flow from him, and in the practical things of life, a new peace possessed him. Troubles did not worry him as before. He cast everything on God in a new way... Instead of working late at night, he began to go to bed earlier, rising at 5 A.M. to give time to Bible study and prayer.H. B. Macartney observes, Here was the real thing ... a man almost sixty years of age, bearing tremendous burdens, yet absolutely calm and untroubled. His phenomenal energy is attested to by the growth of the China Inland Mission, which he founded. At the time of his death, it had 825 missionaries in over 300 mission stations spread over all eighteen provinces of China. Their converts accounted for a quarter of all Christians in China. Hudson Taylor never solicited funds, and he suffered from personal and family ill-health, as well as frequent violence towards Christians in China.While many other Christians, both famous and unknown, have discovered the secret of a changed life, this book is perhaps the best exposition of a life-changing Christian epiphany, and the resulting transformation. Dr. and Mrs. Howard Taylor, Hudson Taylor s son and daughter-in-law, both of whom lived and worked with Hudson Taylor, have carefully pieced together the story from personal correspondence from and about Hudson Taylor. Numerous Christians, such as Jack Miller, founder of World Harvest Mission, continue to credit this book with transforming their lives far beyond what they had imagined possible. Hudson Taylor s Spiritual Secret is essential reading for any Christian wishing to deepen their faith.About the Authors: Dr. Frederick Howard Taylor was Hudson Taylor s son. He was a medical doctor as well as a missionary to China. His wife Geraldine Taylor (Mrs. Howard Taylor) was missionary, but she also had a love of writing, and wrote numerous biographies of missionaries, including one of Borden of Yale.

A defining collection from Alistair Cooke s legendary BBC Radio broadcasts, guiding us through nearly sixty years of changing life in the United States No one else succeeded in explaining to the English-speaking world ... the idiosyncrasies of a country at once so familiar, and yet so utterly foreign IndependentWhen Alistair Cooke retired in February 2004 he was acclaimed as one of the greatest broadcasters of all time. His Letter from America radio series, which began in 1946 and continued every week for fifty-eight years until his retirement, kept the world in touch with what was happening in America. Cooke s wry, humane and liberal style both informed and entertained his audience. The selection here, made largely by Cooke himself and supplemented by his literary executor, gives us the very best of these legendary broadcasts. It covers key moments from the assassination of Kennedy through to the Vietnam War and Watergate to 9/11, the Iraq War and anticipates the 2004 elections. It includes portraits of the great and the good from Charlie Chaplin to Martin Luther King, Jr, and topics as varied as civil rights, golf, jazz and the changing colours of a New England fall. Each Letter contributes to a captivating portrait of a nation - and of a man.
