WINNER OF THE 2009 MAN BOOKER PRIZE br WINNER OF THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FOR FICTION br A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER br England in the 1520s is a heartbeat from disaster. If the king dies without a male heir, the country could be destroyed by civil war. Henry VIII wants to annul his marriage of twenty years and marry Anne Boleyn. The pope and most of Europe opposes him. Into this impasse steps Thomas Cromwell: a wholly original man, a charmer and a bully, both idealist and opportunist, astute in reading people, and implacable in his ambition. But Henry is volatile: one day tender, one day murderous. Cromwell helps him break the opposition, but ..

But now he is being offered the chance for the big break: to move into the house where a pair of briefly notorious murders occurred, apparently the work of disaffected teens during the Satanic Panic of the 1980s.

Feline Philosophy: Cats and the Meaning of Life
by Gray, John       
(Paperback - English - 9781250800251)
The author of Straw Dogs , famous for his provocative critiques of scientific hubris and the delusions of progress and humanism, turns his attention to cats --and what they reveal about humans' torturous relationship to the world and to themselves. The history of philosophy has been a predictably tragic or comical succession of palliatives for human disquiet. Thinkers from Spinoza to Berdyaev have pursued the perennial questions of how to be happy, how to be good, how to be loved, and how to live in a world of change and loss. But perhaps we can learn more from cats--the animal that has most captured our imagination--than from the great thinkers of the world. ..
