Описание: Saxon times were not called the Dark Ages for nothing. It was a violent, unrecognizable world of kill or be killed. In seventh century England, tribes and so-called kings vie for power and blood flows throughout the land. Aethelred - ruler of Mercia - is being pressed from all sides, and his wife Osthryth dies under unknown circumstances. Osthryth's ring falls into the hands of warrior noble Aethelbald, who is accused of her murder and forced to leave Mercia by his conniving cousin Coeolred, who has eyes on the throne. When Aethelred abdicates and the weakling Cenred assumes power, Coelred sees a path to become the king. With a court rife with would-be successors, can Aethelbald survive and become Bretwaldas - the 'Britain-ruler' - and sweep aside the underkings to unite the land? Based on true stories, John Broughton's Saints and Sinners shines a light on the murky Dark Ages, and recreates a Britain on the cusp of momentous change.

Описание:
"In her poem 'I'm Angry with God Again', Belinda Broughton speaks a truth that can't be denied: Having subdued the earth, / we're living in our own shit, / we're cooking ourselves under heaven. This is an example of the clear and unsentimental eye (and voice) that Broughton brings to bear on a global crisis that needs our attention and action, now. Her poems, showing us the wonder of the world - from the towering magnificence of trees to blue wrens singing their 'hopeful songs' - are prescient reminders of all we stand to lose if we, as human beings, continue to see ourselves as the centre of the universe." - Louise Nicholas
"Charged with vivid imagery and crackling insight, Broughton's poems and artwork swerve between the minuscule and the planetary as she skilfully unfolds the intricacies of environmental beauty and damage. These poems brim with the poignant tensions that arise from loving our world while bearing witness to the damage humanity inflicts. Within this collection, our world is distilled to its essential elements and humanity is laid bare. Broughton is deeply engaged with the species that surround her, questioning everything and conveying her insights with a perceptiveness that is both precise and lyrical." - Dr Rachael Mead

Описание: It is 733 AD in Anglo-Saxon Britain - a time of warriors, war and religious extremes. Begiloc, a young freedman from Wimborne, is a man of action. But his world turns upside down when the young Briton and his best friend Meryn are ordered away to protect English missionaries in Germany. For a man accustomed to brutality, Begiloc has a soft spot for the purple-tinged mountains, waterfalls, lakes, animals, trees and flowers - beginning to muse whether they, rather than Man, do not better embody the essence of God. Mission follows mission across the continent, and Begiloc is driven ever further from his loved ones. His ultimate foe is the corrupt and cruel Bishop of Rems, Milo. Will Begiloc ever be free from his obligations to the Church, and reunited with those whom he has been so long separated? John Broughton's The Purple Thread is a historical thrill-ride across 8th century Europe, which also rings some very contemporary bells, and a tale of a man's psychological battle to sustain his faith and morality in the face of temptation and evil.
