DOWNLOAD EBOOK →If Grace Cassidy had known she was going to find a naked corpse in her hotel bed, lose every penny she had in the world, and encounter zany characters straight from the Mad Hatter's tea party, she might have kept her usual poise when she spotted husband Charlie's mistress at their business convention in San Francisco. She wouldn't have left in a temper to drive up the northern California coast. She certainly wouldn't have stopped at an obscure bed and breakfast called Wimberly Place-or become the prime suspect in a murder investigation.

It was her duty to act as a companion for her invalid cousin Celia and a respectable chaperone for Celia's elder, headstrong sister Arabella. Perhaps it was even hoped Jane would exert a gentling influence on the two sisters' reckless brother Felton. But guarding the family's reputation - and their lives - is a far more difficult task, one Jane must take up, yet again, when death and danger visit their seaside estate.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Burning the Dead traces the evolution of cremation in India and the South Asian diaspora across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Through interconnected histories of movement, space, identity, and affect, it examines how the so-called traditional practice of Hindu cremation on an open-air funeral pyre was culturally transformed and materially refashioned under British rule, following intense Western hostility, colonial sanitary acceptance, and Indian adaptation. David Arnold examines the critical reception of Hindu cremation abroad, particularly in Britain, where India formed a primary reference point for the cremation debates of the late nineteenth century, and explores the struggle for official recognition of cremation among Hindu and Sikh communities around the globe. Above all, Arnold foregrounds the growing public presence and assertive political use made of Hindu cremation, its increasing social inclusivity, and its close identification with Hindu reform movements and modern Indian nationhood.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Offers a close analysis of the Old French fabliaux, short medieval comic tales in narrative verse noted for their irreverence and sexual content.

Of interest to those studying medieval culture, Old French literature, and the development of the short or comic narrative. Lacks a subject index.
