Review: Visceral and muscular prose
Bottle and Glass is a tantalizing work of fiction anchored in careful historical research. In visceral and muscular prose, Morgan Wade paints a sea-salted and gripping portrait of early nineteenth century English empire on Turtle Island. In his second novel, the master storyteller compels our attention using thoroughly grounded and unromantic brushstrokes that depict early colonial life, with all of its messy and at-times violent implications. Readers will revel in the evocative and palpable descriptions of life at sea under the thumb of the British navy. Wade revels in his command of period English, and his raw talent for paced, fluid writing never disappoints.

Stoicism Today: Selected Writings available now
The Stoicism Today blog has just published a new book: Stoicism Today: Selected Writings, available now as a Kindle e-book and paperback.
http://blogs.exeter.ac.uk/stoicismtoday/the-book/
About the book: ‘From Stoic ethics to emotions, from Stoic mayors and mindfulness to practical philosophy, parenting, psychotherapy and prisons, from Star Trek and Socrates to Stoic lawyers, literature and living in general, this book brings together a wide-ranging collection of reflections on living the Stoic life today. You’ll read advice on coping with adversity, reflections on happiness and the good life and powerful personal testimonies of putting Stoicism into practise. But you’ll also read about the links between Stoicism and psychotherapy, Stoicism and mindfulness meditation and the unexpected places Stoicism can pop up in modern culture. This book will be of interest to both academics and non-academics alike and is about the varied ways in which the 2,300 year old philosophy as a way of life remains relevant to the concerns and needs of the present day.’
