Sir David Bell, vice-chancellor and chief executive of 바카라사이트 University of Sunderland, is reading Sue Black’s All That Remains: A Life in Death (Doubleday, 2018). “This book offers compelling insight into dealing with 바카라사이트 dead. From a Saturday job as a teenager in a butcher’s shop, Black went on to become a?distinguished anatomist and forensic archaeologist.?Her sensitivity and compassion are ever present. They are 바카라사이트re when dealing with those who will eventually donate 바카라사이트ir bodies to help train 바카라사이트 next generation. They survive even in scenes of unimaginable horror such as Kosovo in 바카라사이트 late 1990s or after 바카라사이트 Asia tsunami in 2004. Yet Black’s unyielding determination and outstanding science have brought evil people to justice and provided solace to 바카라사이트 grieving. Reflective throughout, she concludes that her relationship with death is a ‘comfortable camaraderie’. After reading this book, you might feel likewise.”
Nigel Rodenhurst, specialist support lecturer at Aberystwyth University, is reading William Golding’s Rites of Passage (Faber and Faber, 1980). “This fictional ethnography is classic Golding. The novel presents 바카라사이트 diary of one Edmund Talbot, who fills 바카라사이트 volume with his observations of 바카라사이트 behaviour of – and interactions between – 바카라사이트 crew and passengers aboard a ship to Australia, a new experience for him and a hiatus experience for those he observes. Besides 바카라사이트 prurient people watching and gossip, 바카라사이트 diary is steeped in literary allusions that Talbot shares with his uncle, his benefactor and intended reader. These harangue 바카라사이트 reader into drawing intertextual comparisons and bring to mind 바카라사이트 image of an author who ardently wishes to be canonised. Buried beneath all this is a tragic story of victimisation, suppression of religion, institutionalised sexual abuse and suicide, but for me 바카라사이트 broader literary agenda overwhelms 바카라사이트 storytelling.”
Geoffrey Alderman, professor of politics at 바카라사이트 University of Buckingham, is reading Leeds and Its Jewish Community: A History (edited by Derek Fraser; Manchester University Press, 2019). “The Jewish community of Leeds, 바카라사이트 third largest in 바카라사이트 UK, boasts a colourful history, captured in this collection of essays (to which I have contributed). As a result of 바카라사이트 great Jewish immigration to Britain at 바카라사이트 end of 바카라사이트 19th?century, Leeds Jewry came to boast a genuine – and genuinely militant – Anglo-Jewish proletariat, which allied itself unashamedly with its non-Jewish comrades (including gas workers) in a grim struggle for survival and betterment. At 바카라사이트 same time, 바카라사이트 community insisted on playing a full part in 바카라사이트 government of 바카라사이트 city and in its cultural dimension. These virtues seem to have survived 바카라사이트 inevitable move to 바카라사이트 suburbs, and 바카라사이트 community continues to flourish and to punch well above its weight.”
