Description:
Peter Enfield doesn't believe in good fortune, as he say's, "all you have to do is sit in one place minding your own business and the world pisses on you"But even a cynic would have to admit that Peter's guardian angel is permanently on strike. Nothing he can do seems to change the endless stream of misfortune that besets him – his son's illness, his job insecurity, his ability to attract crises when he can least cope with them, all appears to be fate laughing at him.He is severely injured when his car gets side-swiped after which a major accident kills everyone in his family and leaves him on a long and traumatic road to recovery. The only person he can rely on is Isaac, the one man that held his sanity together when he lost his family – yet even Isaac has his secrets.It's only when he is discharged from hospital with the insurance pay-out cheques in his pocket that he can remodel his life.But even with a determination to make good, his fate is not in his hands and he buys a house with an…

Description:
Montreal: Editions Dédicaces, 2012. Paperback. New. Ce qui fait l'originalité de ce recueil de poèmes de Jean-Pierre Makosso, ce n'est peut-être pas son caractère humaniste ou la prise de parti des orphelins, des pauvres, des sans-abri, bref des marginaux. L'auteur montre clairement qu'il ne suffit plus d'avoir quelque chose à dire pour écrire, mais de conquérir le « comment dire ». Cette recherche esthétique chez Makosso amène à la subversion des codes génériques par la production d'une exquise poésie qui flirte avec le style romanesque. La poésie narrative de Makosso, polyphonique, humoristique, rimée et rythmée au son du tam-tam intérieur de l'auteur, oscillant constamment entre le français, langue coloniale, le lingala sa langue nationale, ainsi que le vili sa langue maternelle, invite le lecteur à un voyage dans un pan…

Description:
"Only Fate Is Written" is a compendium of 32 short stories by CB Barrie which challenge precepts, belief and expectation.These stories, parables and anecdotes are either counter-intuitive or logically inconsistent and, in that respect, thought provoking. Some are humorous, yet insightful. Some ask an unanswerable question, others will converge to an unforeseen and surprising outcome. Each title tends to be unpredictable and has a somewhat satisfying, and in some senses edifying, conclusion. In short, they are ideal entertainment for reflective readers looking to enrich their perspective on life.
The stories in Only Fate Is Written are primarily independent, though some are sufficiently related to be treated as thematic. Those delving into the pages of Only Fate Is Written will feel the inescapable hand of fate as it influences all man's activities.
