Magnum photographer Martin Parr's vision of contemporary England in 100 colour photographs.
Customer Reviews:
a tongue-in-cheek look at the British.......2006-05-31
Martin Parr is one of the great documentary photographers of Britain and this book is a prime example of his talent in the field. This book is a wonderful collection of the quirks and eccentricities of the British. No subject is overlooked as Parr covers food, dress, interior design and gardens, pomp and circumstance and Brits at the seaside. It's a view of England not seen by most tourists which makes it all the more relevant for foreign audiences. Browsing through the book one can see several cultural similarities like the picture of a winning dessert at a district garden society show, or people talking on their mobile phones.
If you're a bit of an anglophile or simply enjoy good photography, this book won't disappoint. I bought this book at the Tate Modern after having seen several of the photos in various galleries, and find it inspiring to aspiring photographers like myself.

Book Description
The novels of David Lodge have earned comparisons to the fiction of John Updike and Philip Roth and established him as "a cult figure on both sides of the Atlantic" (The New York Times). Thinks..., his new novel, is a timely and witty story about secret infidelities and the nature of consciousness. The story unfolds in the alternating voices of Ralph Messenger, the director of the Holt Belling Center for Cognitive Science at the University of Gloucester in England, and Helen Reed, a recently widowed novelist who has taken up a post as writer-in-residence at Gloucester. Ralph, who is much in demand as a pundit on developments in artificial intelligence, believes that computers may one day be conscious; Helen believes that literary fiction constitutes the richest record of human consciousness. The two are mutually attracted and fascinated by their differences, but Helen resists Ralph's bold advances on moral principles. The standoff between them is shattered by a series of events and discoveries that dramatically confirm the truth of Ralph's dictum that "we can never know for certain what another person is thinking."
Told with Lodge's inimitable wry humor and elegant style, Thinks... offers both a delightful take on love and life in one of the lusher habitats of middle England and a playful yet searching examination of the complexities of human consciousness.

Thinks.... A bit disappointing.......2007-06-09
This novel, about artificial intelligence, novel writing and affairs of the heart, resolves itself by suggesting that what really matters is the place we happen to be and the people we happen to meet while we are there.
I read it in three sessions. The plot kept me turning the pages. Thinking afterwards, I was disappointed to discover that I wasn't concerned about the fate of the characters, novel writing or artificial intelligence.
What I did like were the descriptions of place. Maybe I'll get to Ledbury next time I'm in the UK...
Good, but not great.......2007-05-18
Anyone who has read David Lodge's earlier books will be on familiar ground with this story. It has an academic setting and centers around two intelligent but very different people (Ralph, a cognitive scientist, and Helen, a novelist), who come to appreciate each other and eventually have an affair.
It is pleasant reading and mildly amusing, but not so funny that I would call it a "comic novel." In fact, the mood throughout is rather subdued, probably because most of the story is recounted by the characters after the fact, placing the events at arm's length. While the discussions of cognitive studies may put some readers off, they really aren't that difficult or essential to understanding the plot.
After five chapters and a couple of hints in the text, it became apparent how Lodge was using the book's form to illustrate his theme of consciousness. For the most part, there are three different chapter styles: 1) Ralph's dictations; 2) Helen's journal entries; and 3) a more typical objective narrative. These are not arbitrarily chosen devices. The first two are pure inner monologue, mirroring the character's consciousness, while the third is a purely external description of events. Thus, Lodge separates out narrative elements that are usually found mixed together in most novels. This gives the book a Rashomon-like style, but with one important difference: there is no factual disagreement between Ralph and Helen. They may have different thoughts about what happens, but they don't have different versions. The contrast Lodge wants to explore is that between the inner and outer spheres of our lives, not between different "realities."
I'm not sure this proves anything about consciousness (or is supposed to), but it certainly does illustrate one thing: the novel (and similar forms of writing) is especially good at depicting the inner life of people. It is the closest thing to getting a look into someone's else's head, that is, their consciousness. So, while the book succeeds as a literary exercise, the story itself is not that compelling.
So glad you can now purchase a copy in the U.S........2005-06-12
Lodge's brilliance is at work once again.
I read about this work in an airplane magazine in Europe about a year before it was released in the U.S. - I was able to find an English language copy in Amsterdam.
I was not disappointed; anyone who works in higher education will be able to identify with the characters in this book. The power struggles, the unwritten rules of academia and the lives of everyday individuals.
I couldn't put this book down - I read it in one sitting one a flight back from Europe.
A wonderful read!!!
Familiar settings, mixed results........2005-04-02
David Lodge goes back to the familiar turf of the newer (fictional of course) universities in England, and similarly to what he did in Nice Work, he juxtapposes two characters from different disciplines: Ralph Messenger, a smart, egocentric and charming cognitive sciences professor and Helen Reed - a recently widowed novelist, more "old school" and with an excellent literary sense. The background theme of the book is consciousness, as it is perceived by the more scientific Ralph on the one hand, and by Helen, whose views are rooted in the literary, humanistic world. The plot thickens when mutual attraction is introduced and takes some unexpected turns.
One of the beautiful aspects of Lodge's writing is the ability to create this layered construct of the personal and the philosophical, as he has marvelously done in "Paradies News", where certain philosophical/theological questions beautifully mix with the personal story of Bernard and his father. In "Thinks..." this construct is more artificial and less convincing. The book starts with a bang, and one expects that the build up of the characters, as well as the exploration of the ever-intriguing question of consciousness will escalate from there. Instead, the book soon reaches a plateau: the dealing with consciousness becomes mostly tired and repetitive, and the reader becomes less involved with the main characters. And because of this, although things do happen, but they seem like artificial tricks to keep the plot going rather than organic events that bind everything together. Lodge is a masterful writer, and thus it's an easy book to read through, but it does not leave the same feeling of lingering satisfaction that his better books provide.
Clash of disciplines.......2005-03-11
A novel about cognitive science, and there are a lot of quite long conversations between the two principal characters about mind-body philosophy which, though central to the fullest understanding of the plot, some readers may find a little daunting. Both characters keep a private journal. The man is a sexually predatory cognitive scientist at a university. His private thoughts are coarse and randy. The woman is a visiting teacher of creative writing and a much more sensitive and sympathetic character. The book is brilliantly written and paced, a real page-turner with a satisfying ending.

Real Life & Love.......2005-06-21
This is story of real life and love. Michael is a playboy who changes girlfriends every other month. Sally is Michael's ex-girl and his best friend who still loves him. Katie is young Sally look-a-like and Michael new flavor of the month. Jude is the only realist in the group who finds herself in the middle of her friend's chaos. The friendship and love are so real who feel every emotion the characters go through. I would not say this was favorite read but very thought provoking.
Don't Even Think About It.......2005-06-09
AWESOME! Another amazing novel from Lauren Henderson! Her characters are real and honest, her story is compeling and true to life and while you're laughing at Lauren's wit you're also learning a bit about human behavior along the way! 3 cheers for Lauren on another wonderful novel.
P.S. If you're single or even if you just know someone who is single or even if you aren't single -- you have to read Lauren Henderson's "Jane Austen's Guide To Dating." It is the best, most honest, most helpful and most entertaining guide book on the subject. This guide will be the last book you'll need to read on the subject and you don't need to be an Austen fan or authority to learn a ton from Austen's wisdom and Henderson's application of Austen's wisdom to the single world in the 21st century.
Sharp and absorbing.......2005-04-14
I thought this book was a massive improvement on Henderson's previous romantic comedy, "My Lurid Past." This novel was truly difficult to put down.
A comedy of manners, this novel follows the intertwined lives of Sally, Mike, and Jude. Sally and Mike used to date, but are still close friends and near-flatmates; Jude lives nearby as well. The three of them are inseparable until Mike starts dating the latest in his "parade of brunettes," a younger woman named Katie. Sally, who still has submerged feelings for her ex, predicts that Katie won't last, but when Katie gets pregnant, no one can predict what the outcome will be.
Henderson does a great job with plot twists and turns, and very engaging characters. Sally, Jude and Mike are so fully described that you can see what they look like and practically picture them in your living room. Henderson has a particular talent for warts-and-all description, where the reader becomes intimately familiar with every character's insecurities, Schadenfreude and sense of rivalry with the other characters.
My only complaint is that the plot twists toward the end of the book become increasingly difficult to believe, and this detracted from the story's "realness." Also, at the very end the story was predictable (although not until then, which was impressive).
Chick lit with a razor edge.......2005-03-09
Lauren Henderson, known for the Samantha Jones mystery series, has been branching out into chick lit with a distinct edge. In "Don't Even Think About It," Katie moves in with her new boyfriend Michael. Michael's ex-girlfriend Sally and her best friend Jude live across the street and all three are very close, much to Katie's displeasure. Complicating matters are: the torch Sally has carried for Michael for nine years after their relationship ended, Michael's womanizing, Katie's accidental pregnancy, and the appearance of Sofie, a temperamental, egotistical French artist who was Michael's first love (and shattered his heart).
My only complaint is when the book spirals to a startling denoument it stops with the immediate fallout, then rushes to an epilogue and leaves out a few scenes I would have liked to see, but can't reveal without being a spoiler. Still, it's a nice read on a lazy afternoon.
Descent -- Not Her Best Work.......2004-12-07
I have come to expect a lot from Lauren Henderson and was a bit let down by this book. The story is basically about 3 friends and the troubles that relationships bring. Especially when they are with one another. The three friends are well developed and their interactions are a wonderful read. But, the story reminds me of one of those books where the author doesn't know how to finish the book so the planet explodes. The book ends and you are left wondering why you spent the time, even with the great characters.
Book Description
When your worst enemy makes you the executor of his estate, you don't expect an easy time. What James Pandolph discovers in settling Tom Powys' considerable estate is nothing compared to what is required settling the passions of his life. This includes neo-conservative politics at the highest level and the bodies that have fallen at every step along the way.
Customer Reviews:
NEW AGE, OLD TIMES.......2007-05-28
MARTYR'S CREEK is one of the most provocative books of the year. If you can imagine having a neo-con friend who is a really an enemy who names you the executor of his estate, you may be able to see how the book's story goes. The main character and narrator, a man everyone calls Panda, sorts through huge stacks of money, meets a flurry of old friends who are in every state of denial, until he finally comes to the mystery that drives everything in the book without anyone knowing it's there. Add to that a love resumed, the reclaiming of a lost son, and the righting of a university that was destroyed in the name of conservative doctrine, and you have David Chacko's thirteen book. One of these days someone will going to come up with a Lifetime Achievement Award for Novels. This is where they might start.
PSYCOPATHIC POLITICS.......2007-04-12
If you've ever suspected that the current state of American politics is a conspiracy, you'll love MARTYR'S CREEK. Something is rotten in the state of union, and it all begins with money and the way it corrupts. The neo-conservative movement, that group of brilliant and destructive academics and bureaucrats, is represented here in the figure of Tom Powys. He has died and named to administer his estate James Pandolph, who was once his best friend and is now his sworn enemy. Why would any man do something as perverse as that? You'll have to read the books to find out. It's hard to believe it's part of Powys' character in the beginning, but hard to forget by the end of the book. It's also enough to say that the reasons for the perversity and the novel's fantastic currents make sense once the story is told to the last page. And told very well. Chacko is as good a writer as there is in this country.
Book Description
This powerful short novel, with its extraordinary mixture of acute social realism and dark fantasy, was described by J. R. Ackerley himself as "a fairy tale for adults." Frank, the narrator, is a middle-aged civil servant, intelligent, acerbic, self-righteous, angry. He is in love with Johnny, a young, married, working-class man with a sweetly easy-going nature. When Johnny is sent to prison for committing a petty theft, Frank gets caught up in a struggle with Johnny's wife and parents for access to him. Their struggle finds a strange focus in Johnny's dog—a beautiful but neglected German shepherd named Evie. And it is she, in the end, who becomes the improbable and undeniable guardian of Frank's inner world.

A real snicker of a book.......2003-03-28
It's practically impossible to imagine a book like this being published in today's publishing atmosphere, but thankfully, NYRB is around to buck that trend. I mean what editor today would manage a straight face upon opening a proposal about a middle-aged gay man taking care of the irrepressible dog of his working-class lover who's in jail? But as usual, with any work of art -- craft, talent, intelligence, compassion -- this remarkable work is so much more than that. Around its droll premise, Ackerley found a way to brilliantly expose the pettiness of people, regardless (or precisely because) of their social standing. The dog, which is just as vividly alive as each of this novel's (bipedal) characters, is really only it's lovable catalyst. But finally, what makes this work astounding is how it slyly and assuredly gets funnier and funnier and more blackly though generously hilarious with each successive page. A real snicker of a book.
Brilliant Black Humor.......2002-06-27
This fantastic piece of high art just gets funnier and funnier and more blackly though generously hilarious with each successive page. Brilliant.
A little delight.......2000-11-06
It would be hard to make the case that WE THINK THE WORLD OF YOU is by any means a major work, but why should that lessen your fun? Ackerley's novel is very much a surprise in its relegation of its homoeroticism (dealt with very honestly and matter-of-factly) to the background; the protagonist's homosexuality is treated as simply a matter of course rather than as the center of concern, and what gets greater attention is his complicated relationship with his lover's family and dog.
The narrator himself is a terrific creation: sneaky, pompous, arrogant, and yet also somewhat likeable despite it all. And so too are the lover's parents and the dog herself--it all has the ring of reality about it. This is a minor delight, but a delight nonetheless.
A masterpiece of literary craft.......1999-08-31
I agree that "We Think the World of You" is brilliant, poignant, subtle, and funny, but would like to make the additional point that it is a stunning example of literary construction. It is widely admired for its construction, but what is not widely acknowledged is that the construction, like its brilliance, poignancy, subtlety, and funniness, is the product of a well trained and accomplished intellect. Ackerley took 12 years to write the book -- he had important ideas he wanted to express as effectively as possible, and the result is a very serious and rewarding novel.
A minor or even not-so-minor classic........1999-07-09
The fact that this book was ever allowed to go out of print is a disgrace -- thank goodness it is finally being reprinted. As a dissection of the English class system, as a "gay novel," as simply a piece of literature, it is one of the most brilliant and poignant and subtle and funny works of the late 20th century. This is the sort of elegantly written, in some ways understated book that gets called "a minor classic," but judging from the way it lingers in the mind, from the way it discombobulates one's thinking on any number of subjects (including the afore-mentioned class system and homosexuality), it may not be a minor classic but just a classic, period.
Book Description
Two cataclysmic events occur on February 9, 1964. The Beatles appear on The Ed Sullivan Show and later that night, nine-year-old Jane MacLeod's life changes forever. It has been said that children are good observers but poor interpreters. Jane's interpretation of the events of that evening shapes her life in ways she doesn't recognize. Think of England follows Jane from an intense love affair in the ex-pat scene in punk-era London to working motherhood in New York to a family reunion in the country -- and a reckoning with the ghost that has stood between her and her dream of a happy family.
Customer Reviews:
Character study not deep enough, not dimensional enough.......2004-03-06
What I liked about the beginning of the book , and early parts of the London section, were Jane's introspective nature and her need to rewrite what she thought was happening. Even when she is not writing poetry, she is shaping her view of the world through words, correcting herself, re-setting scenes. Dark does a wonderful job of showing this young creative mind. However, this introspection becomes a crutch. People don't really know Jane as she doesn't even reveal herself much to the reader.
I loved best how a small action begets a lifetime of regret and guilt. Jane does not feel sorry for herself per se, but it does feed her introspection and her self-doubt. She has moments of quiet strength and humor which seem suddenly squashed and absent when Clay comes into the story.
There are sections in the book where the focus veers away from Jane, and I agree with another reviewer when they say these are the weaker parts of the book.
I especially thought that the character of Clay West was a shallow one. Although the "plot" seemed to tread water during the Nigel-Colette-Jane section, I appreciated how their interaction challenged Jane and she seemed more "present" in their relationship. The Jane that loved Clay seemed just as vacuous as his character.
Emily is a potentially wonderful character but our scenes with her are few as the author rushes through these pages to get to the ending. The family reunion scene seemed awfully belated and thus contrived. It's crowded with voices of the other siblings who we don't really know or care about. There was good tension with Jane waiting to confront Via. But why add as a coda the letter in the end? And what about Colette? Didn't she serve as a great foil in the middle section?
There were good parts, but the throughline of the story was not a compelling one. We are not compelled to move from one section to the next, we just follow the character.
The Good Writing Continues.......2003-08-19
Alice Elliott Dark's first novel was certainly worth waiting for and a worthy follower of the book of short stories IN THE GLOAMING that received such critical acclaim a few years ago. Jane, a youngster when her beloved father has an accident and is killed, grows up believing she is responsible for his death. This misconception follows her into adulthood and colors her entire life and is what much of the novel is about.
Ms. Dark is very good with dialogue and verbal fencing. When the uoung man from England Nigel tells her he is gay and asks if she's bothered with learning that, the conversation goes like this:
"'Of Course not. My uncle is gay,' she offered, and immediately regretted it. 'I'm sorry.That was stupid.'
'Quite all right. My sister's a girl, if that makes you feel any better.'"
Dark delves into the complexity and difficulty of family relationships that sound all too familiar to many of us. Once again she writes about lost opportunities and living with the consequences.
Oh, the title for this novel comes from wedding-night advice for Victorian brides: "Just close your eyes and think of England."
Highly Recommended.......2002-11-04
Humorous, devastating, and completely satisfying, 'Think of England' tells a story that bridges a generation gap in its characters and readers alike. It's obvious that Dark is most comfortable in writing the shorter form, for her book reads like 3 short stories. That is, until the subtle conclusion ties each section together brilliantly. As I closed the book, I realized that I had no questions. Every element of the story had been perfectly uncovered - each wound, each joke, each character. Unlike most novels I read, I had no doubts...that is a rare occasion, and I urge you to read this book.
George Lives!.......2002-04-17
Ms. Dark sends us on a literary journey that leaves us breathless, thanks to gasps of recognition, sadness, hope, and delight. It's amazing how she can summon up the voice of an 8-year-old girl, Jane, and allow us to see the world through her eyes.
We are then allowed to follow this old soul through her twenties and into her forties as she makes acquaintances, lovers, friends, decisions, and realizations that resonated with me and all of those to whom I've lent the book.
I laughed, I cried, I could dance to it. Honestly. It's a true coming of age story. And if you haven't gone through a few Kleenex before its ending...get out of my house and never darken my sheets again.
Ironic Look at Family Life.......2002-04-13
Alice Elliott Dark remembers '60s family life and brings it
back to life in the definitely worthwhile Think of England.
The phrase "think of England" was a favorite of the protagonist
Jane's grandmother's of an activity to do when things were tough.
Structurally and thematically, Think of England is VERY reminiscent of Ian McEwan's Atonement:
First part - detailed account of "the day that changed
everything" in a young girl's life, mostly from her point of view
Middle part - ramifications of the event years later by
the character who suffered the most because of this event
Last part - the girl grown up understanding what really happened to her family
While McEwan's work is mostly chronological, Dark jumps around
in the first part of the book which made the introductory material somewhat hard to follow. Dark's characters are a little
more vivid, particularly Jane, the protagonist, her uncle Francis, and Colette, Jane's friend when she grows up
and goes to live in England for a time.
If you enjoy reading about the migration from childhood to adulthood, and how life looks different from different vantage
points, I recommend this book.

Book Description
The Middle Ages were a perilous period in British history—and these are the towering figures who helped shape society during that crucial, and somewhat brutal, stage. They’re the artists, muses, inspired inventors, and literary legends who endured umpteen decades of harsh living, deadly disease, rats, terrifying capital punishments, and squalor…and still managed to shine through with their reputations intact. These fiery pages will introduce the checkered life and mysterious death of Geoffrey Chaucer, the woman who saw 16 visions of Christ as she lay ill, the illuminator of The Lindisfarne Gospels, and the inventor of Ockham’s Razor…which trims ideas, rather than hair!
