<b>A daring literary fusion of pop culture and feminism, <i>Swifterature</i> captures the special connection between English literature and the worldwide phenomenon of Taylor Swift. </b><br/><br/><i>Swifterature</i><i> </i>captures a unique fusion of different elements: fandom, feminism, and a defense of both literature and popular culture.<br/><br/> The narrative is split into thirteen chapters that use Swift's lyrics as departure points. The reader experiences the inspiring influence of English literature as Swift's lens breathes new vitality and urgency into older texts. McCausland also writes about her own experiences as she copes with intense media scrutiny and is forced to defend her academic integrity.<br/><br/> She argues that Swift, through her self-conscious engagement with classic works of literature and her extraordinary popularity, invites us to reflect not only on the culture of our past but also of our present. <i>Swifterature</i> shows how Swift's place on the world's stage can teach us about many things, from feminism to politics, nature to childhood. In the process the book makes a compelling case that studying Taylor Swift also turns us into better readers, not only of literature but of ourselves and each other.

Stop All The Clocks [Bok / Inbunden]

<i>It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black, the cobblestreets silent...</i><br/><br/>In the Welsh seaside town of Llaggerub, night is moving in the streets. Its inhabitants are lost in the land of dreams: old Captain Cat catches up with his drowned shipmates, Mog Edwards the draper is consumed by mad love for Miss Price the dressmaker, and Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard whips the ghosts of her two late husbands into shape. As the sun rises, the 'dismays and rainbows' of each character are played out within the cycle of one day, intertwining voices and lives, dreams and reality. By turns tender, hilarious and beautifully lyrical, Dylan Thomas's 'play for voices' is his most beloved work and a landmark of Welsh literature.
