This book helps clear away the fog of confusion and uninformed opinion that is rife about China. As Raby says, the view from Beijing is very different from the view from Washington or Canberra. Raby begins with a story about meeting Malcolm Fraser. As ...more |

After the harrowing read of Korea by the same author, these pages were relatively cheerful. That's only by comparison, though. The moral leadership of the USA post-war was compromised and under threat even by the presidency of Eisenhower who viewed t ...more | |

I haven't read any of the rest of the series. In fact, I didn't even realise there was a series. So, it took a while to come to grips with the many characters whose backstories were lightly outlined and whose futures were implied in this wrap-up nove ...more | |

As usual, the footnotes maketh the translation. The lovely thing about the footnotes is that they are both academic and devotional in nature, my favourite combination. |

“...to limit the meaning of Aslan simply to lion from Turkish is to miss its deep northern resonances and the song of the snowflakes whirling around it. Lewis admitted that, as a boy, he had been ‘crazed by northern–ness’ and there are many subtle references to Norse mythology in the story.
In fact, if we treat Aslan as a word from Old Norse, it simply means god of the land. By combining that meaning with Turkish lion, it is essentially cognate which Welsh, Llew, lion, the very word from which the name Lewis is derived.”

“At Tara in this fateful hour,
I place all Heaven with its power,
And the sun with its brightness,
And the snow with its whiteness,
And the fire with all the strength it hath,
And the lightning with its rapid wrath,
And the winds with their swiftness along their path,
And the sea with its deepness,
And the rocks with their steepness,
And the earth with its starkness:
All these I place,
By God's almighty help and grace
Between myself and the powers of darkness!”
― A Swiftly Tilting Planet
