John Berger

Iona Heath relates the importance that John Berger's work and friendship had on her working life as a GP. It includes extracts from letters that span 20 years of her correspondence with John Berger.

The Homeric Doloneia

The Doloneia is the most controversial book of the Iliad, its authenticity being doubted since antiquity. But by applying sophisticated interpretive tools, this book maintains that Iliad 10 was not composed by a single poet, that it is thematically consonant with the rest of the Iliad, and that it has evolved from an earlier Iliadic version.

Poetry of the Second World War

This new anthology brings together a generous selection of famous wartime poets alongside works by civilians and soldiers, offering a symphony of different voices, all connected in their shared experience of the Second World War.
