Immerse yourself in the stories of Ulverton, as heard on BBC Radio 4 Book at Bedtime 'Sometimes you forget that it is a novel, and believe for a moment that you are really hearing the voice of the dead' Hilary Mantel At the heart of this novel lies the fictional village of Ulverton. It is the fixed point in a book that spans three hundred years. Different voices tell the story of Ulverton: one of Cromwell's soldiers staggers home to find his wife remarried and promptly disappears, an eighteenth century farmer carries on an affair with a maid under his wife's nose, a mother writes letters to her imprisoned son, a 1980s real estate company discover a soldier's skeleton, dated to the time of Cromwell... Told through diaries, sermons, letters, drunken pub conversations and film scripts, this is a masterful novel that reconstructs the unrecorded history of England.

"Is it possible for European and North American men to depict Africa in a wise and non-exploitative manner?" That's the question Cooper (African studies, U. of Cape Town, South Africa) hopes to answer in her examination of writers whose opposition to racism, the nature of imperialism, and gender stereotypes make them "weary" inheritors of the legacy of Joseph Conrad. She borrows concepts and methodologies from Said's Orientalism, postmodernism, Lacanian theory, and other areas, rejecting a unified approach. Among the works she examines are Adam Thorpe's Pieces of Light, Alan Hollinghurst's The Swimming-Pool Library, Patrick Roscoe's The Lost Oasis, William Boyd's Brazzaville Beach, Will Self's Great Apes, Peter Hoeg' s The Woman and the Ape, and Lawrence Norfolk's The Pope's Rhinoceros.
